Filter by:The purpose of this study is to retrospectively analyze colorectal cancer screening data of 40-74 year old population in Shipai Town, Dongguan City. In this study, the data of SDC2 Gene Methylation Test and Fecal Immunochemistry Test (Q-FIT) were screened from about 11,000 subjects who participated in Colorectal Cancer Screening in Shipai Town People's Livelihood Project from May 2021 to May 2022. Data from 822 subjects with positive SDC2 Gene Methylation Test and/or positive Fecal Immunochemistry Test (Q-FIT) results and with colonoscopy and/or pathological results were selected for retrospective analysis. This retrospective study evaluated the screening performance of SDC2 Gene Methylation Test and/or Fecal Immunochemistry Test (Q-FIT) for colorectal cancer using colonoscopy and/or pathological results as the clinical standard method.
Fruquintinib DDI Study with P-gp and BCRP Substrates
The primary objective is to study the effect of communicating individual CRC risk score and screening recommendations on appropriate screening uptake at six months in individuals at low, moderate and high risk of developing CRC. The secondary objectives: - Assess the feasibility of a subsequent larger RCT designed to detect a change in clinical outcomes; - Explore the impact of psychological factors (perceived susceptibility for CRC, perceived benefits from and barriers to screening) on appropriate screening uptake and participation rates. The investigators will perform a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) of 880 residents from the canton Vaud (Switzerland) aged between 50 and 69 years. The QCancer calculator will be used to calculate the personalized risk score. The participants in the intervention group will receive a brochure with a personalized risk score and appropriate screening recommendations. The participants in the control group will receive the standard brochure of the Vaud CRC screening program, regardless of participants' risk level. Six months after the intervention, the investigators will measure the proportion of the participants who have undergone appropriate screening. Screening will be considered as appropriate if participants at high risk undertake colonoscopy and participants at low risk undertake FIT. Both tests are appropriate for participants at moderate-risk. The hypothesis is that in the intervention group, individuals will be more likely to undergo screening appropriate to a participant's individual risk level, whereas the choice of the screening test in the control group will not differ between risk levels. This study should advance the field of risk-based screening. This may give insights about how to optimize CRC screening programs and offer to the population screening options with a better risk-benefit balance.
Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is used for preoperative risk assessment in patients with colorectal cancer who need to undergo surgery. For presentation and interpretation purposes, CPET data are averaged by using a time- or breath-based average. It is uncertain to what extent differences in data averaging methods influence the numerical value of preoperative CPET-derived variables used for risk assessment. Therefore, the primary aim of this study is to investigate the influence of different CPET data averaging intervals on the numerical values of CPET-derived variables used for preoperative risk assessment in patients scheduled for elective colorectal cancer surgery. The secondary aim is to elucidate the impact of data-averaging intervals on classification of patients into a low- or high-risk category for postoperative complications based on known risk assessment thresholds.
The current study will evaluate the microbiome-derived therapeutic vaccine EO2040 in combination with nivolumab in patients with circulating tumor DNA-defined Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) of colorectal cancer stage II, III, or IV after completion of standard curative therapy.
This project aims to evaluate different approaches to increase colorectal cancer screening among primary care patients at Penn Medicine through a centralized screening outreach program. In a pragmatic trial, we will evaluate different approaches to increase response rate to mailed fecal immunochemical test (FIT) kits among eligible patients, including differentiated packaging, sending text reminders, and personalized reminders.
Feedback: during the COVID-19 epidemic, access to operating theaters was restricted so that anesthetists and nurse anesthetists could reinforce the resuscitation workforce. The MEOPA was used as an alternative to sedation, allowing colonoscopies to be carried out, colon polyps and colorectal cancers to be detected.
This is a prospective randomized phase II trial was done in clinical oncology department at Kasr Alainy hospital, Cairo university (NEMROCK) to evaluate the role of intensification of chemotherapy in the first line for treatment of metastatic colorectal carcinoma by adding third agent to standard doublet regimen on oncological outcomes & assess tolerance to the intensified treatment
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of expiratory muscle training (EMT) and incentive spirometry (IS) in addition to conventional pulmonary rehabilitation after colorectal surgery. Twenty-four individuals (13 male) undergoing colorectal surgery were included. They were randomly divided into two groups. In addition to conventional chest physiotherapy, group 1 was performed EMT (n=12), group 2 was performed deep breathing exercises with incentive spirometry (IS) in postoperative period. Respiratory muscle strength, functional capacity, levels of movement and independence, and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC) were evaluated. Length of stay in hospital (LOS) was recorded.
In May of 2021, the United States Preventive Service Task Force (USPSTF) updated their colorectal cancer (CRC) screening guidelines by recommending screening at an earlier age for average-risk adults starting at the age of 45 years old (Grade B recommendation). This is in addition to their Grade A recommendations of continuing to screen average-risk adults ages 50-75 years old. As the investigators health system aims to screen the newly eligible population of average-risk patients between the ages of 45-49, the investigators proposed randomized controlled trial is aimed to determine the most effective patient outreach approach to increase patients' engagement with messages regarding CRC screening and screening uptake within this specific age-group.
