After 1:1 propensity-score matching, the experimental group (n = 132, probiotics + ERAS) was compared with the control group (n = 132, routine care). The primary outcome was time to first flatus. Secondary outcomes included inflammatory-nutritional indices, complications, hospital resources, and readmission. Statistical analyses used the Cox model, linear mixed-effects model, robust variance Poisson regression, Gamma-GLM, and Pearson correlation.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n On postoperative days 1-3, energy and protein intake were significantly higher in the experimental group than in controls (both P&lt; 0.001); a significant group \u00d7 time interaction for 7-day cumulative target attainment was also observed (P&lt; 0.001). The probability of first flatus increased by 98% (HR\u00a0=\u00a01.98 [1.55\u20132.52], P&lt; 0.001). Within 72\u00a0h, rises in CRP, IL-6, and leukocyte count and declines in albumin and prealbumin were all significantly smaller in the experimental group (group \u00d7 time interactions, all P&lt; 0.001). Risks of Clavien-Dindo grade \u2265 II complications, pneumonia, wound infection, and pharyngocutaneous fistula were markedly reduced (RR 0.25\u20130.39, P&lt; 0.05). Median postoperative length of stay and antibiotic days fell by 3.21 and 2.48 days, respectively; cost ratio was 0.83 (0.79\u20130.88); 30-day readmission OR was 0.32 (0.12\u20130.83). ERAS adherence correlated inversely with length of stay (r = \u22120.59; \u03b2 = \u22120.017; P&lt; 0.001).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Probiotic-enhanced enteral nutrition combined with ERAS accelerates gastrointestinal recovery, suppresses inflammation, maintains nutritional status, and significantly reduces complications and healthcare burden in the perioperative period of laryngeal cancer, supporting the integrated \u201cmicro-ecology-nutrition-process\u201d model as an effective strategy for rapid recovery in head-and-neck surgery.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fcimb.2025.1692767","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,3]],"date-time":"2025-11-03T06:23:03Z","timestamp":1762150983000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Impact of probiotic-enriched enteral nutrition combined with an ERAS protocol on postoperative recovery and metabolic rehabilitation in laryngeal cancer patients: a single-center retrospective cohort study"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Xueqiong","family":"Wei","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaodong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Junna","family":"Zeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shannan","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"Liao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"695","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina61040695","article-title":"Prediction of clavien dindo classification\u2265 Grade III complications after epithelial ovarian cancer surgery using machine learning methods","volume":"61","author":"Alci","year":"2025","journal-title":"Medicina"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"5723","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms25115723","article-title":"Probiotics in wound healing","volume":"25","author":"B\u0103d\u0103lu\u0163\u0103","year":"2024","journal-title":"Int.
