  1. Bold values are significant results with two-side P-values<0.05
  2. aInclude patients underwent anastomosis
  3. bOne-to-one greedy propensity score matching on age, race/ethnicity, ASA classification, history of congestive heart failure (CHF), weight loss (> 10% loss of body weight in the last 6 months), preoperative steroid use (Note: the sample size might be smaller due to the inability to find comparable observations on al matched variables)
  4. *Adjusted for demographic characteristics (age, race/ethnicity, sex, body mass index (BMI), smoking status), preoperative comorbidities (ASA classification, non-independent functional status, diabetes, hypertension, history of congestive heart failure (CHF), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), weight loss (> 10% loss of body weight in the last 6 months), bleeding disorder, steroid use), and intraoperative conditions (resection type, wound classification, approach type, operative time > 3 h)
  5. LOS: length of total hospital stays (day)
