Filter by:Study is designed to investigate the risk factors associated with morbidity and mortality in patients who underwent emergency resection because of colorectal cancer in general surgery clinic of a tertiary referral hospital.
Objectives: To compare free-opioid anesthesia (the combination of epidural anesthesia, intravenous lidocaine, ketamine, propofol, and sevoflurane) and opioid anesthesia (fentanyl, propofol and sevoflurane) regarding intraoperative analgesic efficacy in colectomies and rectal resections at Viet Tiep Friendship Hospital. Methods: A prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial was performed on 98 patients who were anesthetized for colorectal surgery from December 2019 to November 2021. Patients were randomized into 2 groups: Group OA - Opioid anesthesia (n = 49): Intraoperative pain control by fentanyl; FOA group - Free-opioid anesthesia (n = 49): Intraoperative pain control by continuous infusion of lidocaine, bolus doses of ketamine combined with epidural levobupivacaine.
The clinical and pathological features of early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) differ from those of late-onset colorectal cancer (LOCRC). Our research aims to thoroughly elucidate the distinctions between them by analyzing clinical prognosis, metastatic patterns, gene expression, and genomic mutation profiles. Our deliberation will uncover latent strategies for personalized therapeutic of both EOCRC and LOCRC.
This is an observational study in which data already collected from patients with metastatic colorectal cancer will be studied. Metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is a cancer of the colon (large bowel) or the rectum (lowest part of the bowel just before the anus) that has spread to other parts of the body. The study drug, regorafenib, is already approved for cancer doctors to prescribe to patients with mCRC. It is an anti-cancer drug that blocks several proteins, called enzymes, which are involved in the growth of cancer. The participants in this study were treated with regorafenib as part of their regular care from their doctors. Some studies have shown that patients with mCRC who took regorafenib had improved survival outcomes, and some of them did well on the treatment for a long time. Cancer doctors have also reported from their routine practice that some patients with mCRC are able to respond to regorafenib for a longer period than others. However, there is limited knowledge about which people this is likely to happen for. To better understand the long-term response of regorafenib treatment, there is a need for a large-scale study in the real world. The main purpose of this study is to learn more about patients who showed a long-term response to regorafenib as a mono treatment for mCRC. To do this, researchers will collect the following information from the participants' health records: Duration of treatment with regorafenib Percentage of participants who received treatment with regorafenib for at least 5 months and 4 months. Characteristics, including age, sex, race, health condition, and signs and symptoms of mCRC, of participants who received treatment with regorafenib for at least 5 months and 4 months. The data will come from an electronic health records database called the Flatiron Health Data Repository for patients in the United States. The data will be from patients with mCRC who started treatment with regorafenib between July 2013 and December 2022. Researchers will consider the data of the participants collected until May 2023. In this study, only available data from routine care are collected. No visits or tests are required as part of this study.
Chemotharapy plus targeted therapy regimen, as an adjuvant therapy, can effectively reduce the rate of both intrahepatic and extrahepatic recurrence in initially unresectable CRLM patients. Those with KRAS/NRAS/BRAF mutated tumors or cycle of conversion therapy ≤ 4 can benefit more from chemotharapy plus targeted therapyrather than from chemotharapy alone, with a tolerable toxicity profile.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of preoperative nutritional status, dietary inflammatory index, and systemic inflammatory response on postoperative outcomes. The study will include 120 colorectal cancer patients who are scheduled for surgical treatment.
The survival of the refractory CRC is dismal and therapy options are limited ，the researchers aim to investigate the efficacy, safety, and predictors of fruquintinib plus PD-1 in refractory MSS metastatic colorectal cancer in a real-world setting.
Introduction: Successful colorectal surgery is determined based on postoperative mortality and morbidity rates, complication rates, and cost-effectiveness. One of the methods to obtain an excellent postoperative outcome is the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol. This study aims to see the effects of implementing an ERAS protocol in colorectal surgery patients. Methods: Eighty-four patients who underwent elective colorectal surgery at National Tertiary-level Hospital were included between January 2021 and July 2022. Patients were then placed into ERAS and control groups according to the criteria. The Patients in the ERAS group underwent a customized 18-component ERAS protocol and were assessed for adherence. Postoperatively, both groups were monitored for up to 30 days and assessed for complications and readmission. The investigators then analyzed the length of stay and total patient costs in both groups.
The present study was to investigate if the incidence, patterns and surgical outcomes of mechanical ileus have changed in the era of minimally invasive surgery (MIS).
Colorectal neoplastic lesion endoscopic characterization is a key element for histological predictive diagnostic value in conducting best appropriate resection choice. Six classifications are necessary for fully correct characterization of different colorectal lesions. Nonetheless, it can be tricky to use so many diagnostic tools with so many subcategories in the 6 existing classifications. That's why we decided to integrate all 6 existing classification validated factors in one single chart (CONECCT chart) allowing to both predict histological diagnostic value and to propose the best appropriate resection strategy. A previous prospective and multicentre study with all French medical residents in gastroenterology was conducted in order to prove pedagogic interest of this diagnostic tool. Each student was asked to review 20 files with lesion pictures before and after lecture about CONECCT chart. This allowed us to prove that this diagnostic tool could significantly improve both histological predictive diagnostic value and therapeutic choice by French medical residents and gastroenterologists. Our hypothesis is that CONECCT's classification can improve predictive diagnostic value of colorectal lesions in over 80% of cases. Now that pedagogic interest of this diagnostic tool has been proven, we would like to carry out a larger prospective assessment in term of performance (value) of this instrument in order to both facilitate endoscopic characterization and allow a most appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic management of each colorectal lesion category.
