Filter by:Fruquintinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), which improves progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Here, we explore the real-world treatment patterns of fruquintinib in the third- or late-line setting for mCRC in six centers in China.
Background: Recent investigations have suggested that sidedness is associated with the prognosis of colon cancer patients. The role of sidedness in surgical outcome is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the different clinical characteristics and associated postoperative outcomes of sidedness in colon cancer. Materials and methods: This is a retrospective study using the multi-institutional, nationally validated database of the American College of Surgeons-National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) from 2009 to 2013. Sidedness groups including right sided and left sided colon cancer were created according to the associated diagnosis and procedure codes. Postoperative mortality, morbidity, overall complication, and length of total hospital stay were analyzed after using a propensity score matching method.
The goal of this observational study was to assess the degree of agreement between the endoscopic and anatomopathological diagnosis of sessile serrated colorectal lesions in adult patients undergoing colonoscopy in Hospital Sírio-Libanes. The main questions it aimed to answer were: - The degree of agreement between endoscopic and anatomopathological diagnosis of sessile serrated colorectal lesions by calculating the Kappa Value of agreement. - To establish the detection rate of sessile serrated lesions and adenomas in the Endoscopy Department at Hospital Sírio-Libanês. - To evaluate the degree of agreement between endoscopic and anatomopathological diagnosis of sessile serrated colorectal lesions based on the resection method. - To assess the accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of endoscopic diagnosis of serrated lesions compared to anatomopathological diagnosis. The data were prospectively collected through a form specifically designed for this project, that was completed immediately after the examination by the performing colonoscopist. All patients enrolled in this study agreed to participate in it and signed an informed consent form prior to the colonoscopy.
To evaluate recent trends in CRC incidence, treatment, and survival in the Southwest China.
We reviewed the patient underwent colorectal surgery with anastomosis and identified patients with anastomotic leak. Then we started to figure out what blood investigation could be related to anastomotic leak.
The prognostic implications of lymph node metastasis in colorectal cancer patients at an early stage, specifically T1/2 stage, are relatively unfavorable. Therefore, understanding the clinical and molecular traits relevant to metastasis in T1/2 stage are of substantial clinical importance.
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to determine feasibility and explore whether financial incentives paid to primary care patients for completing colorectal cancer screening increase completion of colorectal cancer screening. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Do patient financial incentives for completing colorectal cancer screening increase screening completion? - Does a patient financial incentive for colorectal cancer screening offered alongside patient financial incentives for COVID-19 and flu shots increase completion of those shots? Participants who are due for colorectal cancer screening will receive telephone outreach from primary care staff who will offer a stool-based colorectal cancer screening. Participants will be randomly assigned to either Group 1 or Group 2. Group 1 participants will be offered financial incentives for completing COVID-19 and flu shots within 2 months of enrollment. Group 2 participants will be offered financial incentives for completing a COVID-19 shot, a flu shot, and colorectal cancer screening within 2 months of enrollment. Researchers will compare to see if completion of a COVID-19 shot, a flu shot, and colorectal cancer screening is different between the two groups.
The purpose of this study was to identify the prognostic factors of affecting pT4bN0M0 colorectal cancer patients, so as to better stratify the prognostic differences among patients with the same stage.
Colonoscopy is a complex, highly operator dependent, practical skill. The consistent attainment of key performance indicators (KPIs) by endoscopists depends primarily upon training. Local factors can make training unstructured and contingent upon the observed practice of a small number of trainers. The investigators sought to demonstrate the feasibility and impact of a virtual-live one day colonoscopy-training course.
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.
