Robotic‐assisted rectal resection in Japan increased markedly after national insurance reimbursement in 2018, with a concurrent decline in open surgery. Using NDB Open Data, we found substantial inter‐prefectural heterogeneity in surgical volume and robotic utilization that persisted after age and sex standardization (SCR). Urban–rural differences were

Using a multicenter Japanese colorectal cancer cohort from 25 institutions, we analyzed 1464 patients across all disease stages and tumor locations to determine the prevalence and clinicopathological features of MSI‐H/dMMR colorectal cancer. MSI‐H/dMMR tumors accounted for 9.4% of cases overall, were present in 22% of right‐sided colon cancers, and ...

This prospective study observed that preoperative chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer was associated with reductions in body fat and grip strength, which appeared to be more pronounced in female patients. These findings suggest that sex‐sensitive nutritional and exercise support may be beneficial to help maintain muscle mass and physical function ...

MiR‐146a‐5p is downregulated in colorectal polyps, leading to IRAK1 upregulation and NF‐κB activation, which promotes M1 macrophage polarization and inflammation. Overexpression of miR‐146a‐5p suppresses IRAK1/NF‐κB signaling, reduces M1 polarization, and alleviates inflammatory responses.

This study aimed to determine whether immuno‐nutritional and inflammatory markers could serve as predictors of the outcomes of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for stage III colorectal cancer in elderly patients. Postoperative lymphocyte‐to‐monocyte ratio and postoperative C‐reactive protein‐to‐albumin ratio accurately predicted the efficacy of ...

ABSTRACT Background Surgical site infection (SSI) is a major complication after ileal pouch–anal anastomosis (IPAA) in pediatric ulcerative colitis (UC), significantly impairing quality of life. The lymphocyte‐to–C‐reactive protein ratio (LCR), a composite marker of systemic inflammation and immune/nutritional status, has emerged as a potential ...
