Filter by:High uptake is vital to population-based screening. BowelScreen (Irelands national organised population-based colorectal cancer screening programme) has not achieved recommended screening uptake targets. In Ireland sending the test kit in the screening invitation reminder may be an important strategy in targeting non-responders and would address a key difference between Ireland and other international screening programmes with higher uptake. In addition, few studies have focused on behavioural barriers to screening participation. Founded upon the MRC Guidelines for the Development of Complex Interventions, our systematic, theoretically-informed investigation of FIT screening participation has begun to identify behavioural antecedents to screening participation in Ireland. This study will implement a multilevel evidence-based, theoretically-informed intervention which includes the automatic inclusion of the test kit in the screening reminder, alone and in combination with an intervention to influence individuals' screening participation. This multilevel intervention will provide recommendations for the screening invitation delivery, potentially bringing the programme closer to recommended uptake targets (50%) and in the long-term influence reductions in bowel cancer incidence and mortality in Ireland.
This study was conducted to examine the effect of the nurse navigation program (NNP) applied to patients with colorectal cancer on symptom management and psychosocial adjustment to the disease. The design type was determined as a randomized controlled experimental study with a pretest-posttest control group, with repeated measurements. For this purpose, individuals were divided into two groups as experimental (n=31) and control (n=31) groups. The study was carried out in Istanbul Lütfi Kırdar City Hospital Oncology Clinic between July 2021 and February 2022, after the necessary permissions were obtained. While individualized colorectal cancer education, psycho-oncological counseling and telephone support services were provided to the individuals in the experimental group under the guidance of nurse within the scope of NNP, no intervention was applied to the control group. In the study, data were collected with three different data collection tools: "Information Form", "Nightingale Symptom Assessment Scale (N-SAS)", "Psychosocial Adjustment To Illness Scale (PAIS/PAIS-SR)". Data were collected before NNP (once in the first week after chemotherapy), during NNP (once in the second week after chemotherapy, once in the first week after the next chemotherapy), after NNP (once in the second week after the next chemotherapy). The duration of the interventions performed via the WhatsApp application varied between 45-60 minutes between individuals. The research was completed with a total of 60 individuals, 30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group. The data obtained in the study were analyzed using the SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) for Windows 22.0 program.
Colorectal cancer is among the top three types of cancer that are most common and causes death worldwide.Nutritional support is widely used in elective colorectal surgery patients, as nutritional status is an important factor affecting clinical outcomes. European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN, 2016) emphasizes that nutritional supplementation with compounds such as amino acids, arginine, glutamine, and fish oil (omega 3) improves postoperative recovery. Glutamine; it becomes an essential amino acid under stress. It is an energy substrate for cells such as intestinal mucosal cells and lymphocytes, a material for glutathione synthesis, and a potent antioxidant, which also increases heat shock protein expression. In stressful conditions, arginine is the primary fuel source for T cells and is required for nitric oxide synthesis; therefore, it helps maintain immune function. Omega 3; It plays a role in the treatment of inflammation and improves wound healing. In addition, EPA and DHA increase the immune response by improving lymphocyte function. RNA; They are essential for maturation, proliferation, and function in nearly all biochemical processes, in rapidly proliferating cells such as T cells. studies have shown that immunonutrition (IMN) formulas enriched with biologically active compounds may be more effective in reducing infection complications and shortening postoperative hospital stays. This study aimed to investigate the additional effects of perioperative compared with preoperative immunonutrition on anthropometric, nutritional, and biochemical parameters, complications, and the length of hospital stay in patients with colorectal cancer.
This is a nested cohort study of OAMBP-01. Patients over 70 years old were enrolled into the data-analysis. The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic colorectal resection in elderly patients from a single center, and to explore if there are advantages in laparoscopic surgery.
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.
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 .
Chronic lower gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, including lower abdominal pain, bowel habit change, bleeding per rectum, and abdominal bloating, are caused by functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) and organic intestinal disorders, including colorectal cancer and chronic colitis. The presence of alarming features, such as the age of onset older than 50 years, rectal bleeding, anemia, significant weight loss, and family history of colorectal cancer, indicates organic diseases, and colonoscopy should be required. However, using only alarming features may not be sufficiently accurate. For example, anemia or significant weight loss, which are highly specific for organic disorders, usually occur in late-stage diseases. Conversely, the parameters with high sensitivity, such as the age of onset after 50 years, have a low specificity; colonoscopy in these patients may not be urgent. Therefore, tests that can help discriminate organic from functional diseases are warranted. Immunochemical fecal occult blood tests (iFOBT) and fecal calprotectin (FC) are biomarkers that indicate organic lesions in the gastrointestinal tract and could help diagnose patients with lower GI symptoms more accurately.
This study is a clinical validation of Polydeep, a computer-aided polyp detection (CADe) and characterization (CADx) system. Polydeep Advance 1 is an unicentric prospective diagnostic tests trial with a paired study design. The hypothesis of the study is that Polydeep, a CAD system, is more sensitive than a blinded endoscopists for the detection of colorectal polyps in a high definition colonoscopy.
This study is a clinical validation of PolyDeep, a computer-aided polyp detection (CADe) and characterization (CADx) system. PolyDeep Advance 2 is a multicentric randomized clinical trial with a tandem colonoscopy design. The hypothesis of this study is that Polydeep assisted colonoscopy will reduce the number of missed adenomas in the first withdrawal.
To evaluate the effectiveness and accuracy of the ctDNA dual-target test kit in a large case-control cohort for the detection of colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas.
