Table 2.

The intestinal anatomy of adult patients with SBS with and without renal impairment.

Variables All patients Patients with renal impairment* Patients with normal renal function P-value
No. of patients, n 199 56 143
Small bowel length (cm) 85.6 ± 45.5 75.8 ± 41.2 89.4 ± 46.6 0.068
   Median (cm) 80.0 (57.5–117.5) 77.5 (50.0–100.0) 90 (60.0–120.0)
Anatomy type, n (%) 0.962

   II 69 (34.7) 23 (41.1) 46 (32.2)

Ileocecal valve intact, n (%) 77 (38.7) 20 (35.7) 57 (39.9) 0.591
Colon in continuity, n (%) 146 (73.4) 43 (76.8) 103 (72.0) 0.495

Values were presented as n (%), or mean ± SD, or median (first-to-third interquartile range).

Type I:end-jejunostomy with no colon-in-continuity.

Type II: jejuno-colic anastomosis with partial colon-in-continuity.

Type III: jejuno-ileal anastomosis with an intact colon.

Renal impairment was defined as eGFR <90 mL/min/1.73 m2 calculated by the CKD-EPI equation.
