Filter by:Early detection by screening significantly reduces mortality from colorectal cancer (CRC). However, CRC screening rates have plateaued, with a considerable segment of the population remaining unscreened. Not being up to date with screening was associated with an approximate 3-fold risk for CRC-related mortality. There are different well-established CRC screening modalities, including invasive and non-invasive, which detect both polyps and cancer or cancer alone. Colonoscopy remains the dominant screening modality in the U.S.; however, colonoscopy uptake is low due to the invasiveness, perception of discomfort and embarrassment, logistical challenges, cost, and potential risks. Increasing patient compliance and adherence to screening is critical to improving CRC outcomes. A key to enhancing screening participation is patient acceptance of the testing method. A blood-based screening test presents an opportunity to overcome some challenging barriers. Blood-based tests are non-invasive compared to colonoscopy and can easily be part of a standard medical office appointment for a wellness check or scheduled visits to manage chronic illnesses and be completed at the point of care. This study will examine patient preference to use a blood-based screening test and compliance with CRC screening recommendations after failing to complete the FIT (Fecal Immunochemical Test)/FOBT (Fecal Occult Blood Test) or colonoscopy order in six months. Compliance with CRC screening is particularly poor among medically underserved populations, and most of these vulnerable individuals use federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) to obtain care. Implementing a blood-based screening test at FQHCs has the potential to improve CRC screening uptake and adherence and improve health disparities in medically underserved populations. This study seeks to answer the following four questions: 1) What is the acceptability of a blood-based screening as an alternative for patients who failed to complete a prior order using traditional screening methods? 2) Are patients who failed to comply with traditional screening methods more likely to comply with a blood-based screening test? 3) What is the effect of offering a blood-based screening test for patients who are non-compliance with traditional screening methods on overall CRC screening rates? 4) What are the facilitators and barriers to implementing the blood-based screening test in clinical settings?
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of stoma care training given at home via videoconferencing after discharge on the self-efficacy and compliance with stoma of individuals with stoma. In addition to the main purpose, it is aimed to determine whether stoma care education given via video conference at home has an effect on individuals with stoma to perform their own stoma care.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) has become one of the most common malignant tumors in the world, and the key to its prevention and control is early detection and treatment. As colorectal adenoma and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are the inevitable precursors of most CRC, screening for colorectal adenoma and IBD is of great importance for preventing CRC. The existing detection methods have high sensitivity for CRC, while limited in colorectal adenoma and IBD. Therefore, exploring a detection method with high sensitivity for colorectal adenoma and IBD is necessary. This project intends to use methylation detection technology, lactic acid modified omics, proteomics, metagenomics, and other omics technology, through the analysis of differences in feces and histological results in healthy volunteers, patients with non-advanced adenoma, patients with advanced adenomas, patients with IBD, and patients with CRC for early screening.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common cancer that threatens human health, with the incidence ranking the third in the world. 70% of patients are in the middle and late stages whendiagnosed, and even after radical surgery, 30% - 50% of patients with CRC have recurrence or metastasis after radical surgery. Therefore, after radical surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy, regular monitoring of CRC patients should be paid attention to in order to detect the recurrence and metastasis lesions that can be resected and the early non-invasive metachronous multiple primary tumors. The sensitivity of FIT-DNA to CRC was 95.5%, the sensitivity to advanced adenoma (AA) was 63.5%, and the specificity was 87.5%, showing a good ability to screen colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions. At present, there is no report on the application of FIT-DNA combined detection technology in the high-risk recurrence period and mid - and long-term monitoring after CRC surgery in China. In this study, Fit-DNA combined detection technology was applied to the follow-up monitoring of patients after CRC surgery, so as to optimize the current typical postoperative follow-up strategy, find early recurrence and multiple primary colorectal tumors after CRC surgery, seek the best postoperative follow-up model, improve the compliance of patients to follow-up, and ultimately benefit survival. Detailed Description:Outline:This study was a single-center, observational study. Fit-DNA detection technology was used as a target method, and colonoscopy was used as the gold standard control to follow up and monitor patients with colorectal tumors after surgery, and to explore whether it is an effective non-invasive auxiliary method for monitoring CRC recurrence and metastasis and multiple primary colorectal tumors.
Dietary patterns are a potentially modifiable risk factor for colon cancer recurrence, flares in inflammatory bowel diseases, and for chronic diseases. Nutritional counseling is rarely brought up during medical appointment. As a result, patients are often left confused regarding which specific dietary recommendation to follow after surgical treatment. A plant-based diet is naturally high in fiber and is beneficial to long-term health, especially for patients with colorectal diseases. The aims of this study are to: 1. Determine whether an educational intervention is effective in increasing intake of plants 2. Identify barriers and facilitators to adoption of a plant-based diet among patients with colorectal diseases 3. Identify secondary health gains related to adoption of a plant-based diet.

This study is to assess the sensitivity and added benefits of CADEYE compared to standard care (white-light) in detecting colon polyps in patients undergoing colonoscopy.
The aim of the study is to validate the value of value of peripheral blood protein biomarkers in colorectal cancer screening, and to identify new ones
Aim of study: is there possibility of relationship between ABO blood group, Rh & obesity with CRC, that is what we tried to show in this study .
The primary objective of this study is to determine the ex-vivo prognostic accuracy of the Cybrid live tumor diagnostic platform across a basket of solid tumors, using in-vivo RECIST 1.1 as the reference method.
