Postoperative enterocolitis assessment using two different cut-off values in the HAEC score in Hirschsprung patients undergoing Duhamel and Soave pull-through

Table 3 Comparison of HAEC incidence after pull-through between two cut-off values of HAEC scoring system and its association with patients’ characteristics

	Sex		p-value	OR (95% CI)	Aganglionosis type		p-value	OR (95% CI)
	Male	Female	p-value	OR (95% CI)	Short-segment	Long-segment	p-value	OR (95% CI)
Cut-off ≥10 HAEC (n, %)	12/14 (86)	2/14 (14)	0.47	1.8 (0.4–9.0)	12/14 (86)	2/14 (14)	0.53	1.7 (0.3–8.3)
Cut-off ≥4 HAEC (n, %)	33/38 (87)	5/38 (13)	0.09	2.9 (0.9–8.4)	30/38 (79)	8/38 (21)	0.91	0.9 (0.3–2.7)

*, p-values were calculated using Fisher Exact or Chi-square tests; CI, confidence interval; HAEC, Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis; OR, odds ratio
