CR-POSSUM is one of the most used surgical scores to predict mortality after colorectal surgery. Its main drawback is the requirement of intraoperative variables, whose collection is time-consuming and prevents from obtaining a purely preoperative risk assessment. The primary aim of the study is to develop a new surgical score using preoperative parameters to predict 30-day mortality after colon cancer surgery in the elderly population. The secondary objective is to analyze its efficacy compared to CR-POSSUM.
The objective of this study was to assess survival trends in elderly patients with stage III colon cancer
Surgery is the primary treatment for colon cancer. However, the rate of recurrence or metastasis in colon cancer can be as high as 30%, even in stages 1 and 2 . Most colon cancer-related deaths are caused by metastatic disease . Many patients with colon cancer harbour micrometastases and disseminated tumour cells at the time of surgery . Whether the micrometastases develop into clinically significant metastases depends on the immune system's ability to eradicate them.The aim of the study is to declare the effect of epidural-intravenous based anesthetic technique on anti-tumor immunity and in comparison to epidural inhalational based anesthetic technique in patients undergoing open surgical resection of colon cancer.
This study investigats the gastrointestinal functional outcomes of laparoscopic D3 lymphadenectomy for right colon cancer with the medial border along the left side of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) versus the left side of superior mesenteric vein (SMV). This is a single center, prospective cohort study with a sample size of 264 patients. The primary endpoint is the incidence of diarrhea (evaluated using the Diarrhea Assessment Scale) one month after surgery.
This study aims to estimate the effects of nutritional interventions on the improvement of nutritional status and quality of life (QoL) among gastrointestinal patients in Vietnam
Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is the third most common cancer in male and female worldwide. In India, it is the fourth most common cause of cancer in males and third most common cancer in female. Age, smoking, colonic adenomatous polyp, family history are traditional risk factor for CRC. The vast majority of CRC results from malignant transformation from adenoma, which is called as adenoma carcinoma sequence. These adenomatous polyps grows slowly over many years and malignant transformation eventually occurs over 10 years. So, the early detection and removal of polyp at early stage should benefit in preventing CRC.
The global cancer burden is estimated to have risen to 18.1 million new cases in 2018 (WHO), with a trend of ongoing growth. This very frequent illness exerts tremendous physical, emotional and financial strain on individuals, families, communities and health systems. Malnutrition (under- or over-nutrition) is highly prevalent in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and is an important predictor of morbidity, mortality, treatment response and toxicity. Alterations in taste and smell are frequently reported as side effect of chemotherapy and may contribute strongly to malnutrition and to a worsen quality of life and wellbeing social, emotional, and role functioning. There are evidences that chemotherapy influences food liking and appetite with implications for food behaviours, including food enjoyment, food preference and dietary intake. A linkage between alterations in taste and /or smell and food behaviours has been reported by some studies but not all, suggesting that there is a need for more research using common standardised methodologies and larger sample size to gain a further insight into this topic.
Observational, feasibility study investigating biological aspects in patients with liver metastasis from colorectal cancer undergoing treatment with SIRT, by translational analysis of biological samples.
The investigators aimed to determine whether an interactive, online educational platform could improve procedure show rates and bowel preparation scores in an outpatient population presenting for routine colonoscopy.
