Biomechanical Phenotyping Reveals Unique Mechanobiological Signatures of Early‐Onset Colorectal Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a unique physical signature of colorectal cancer in younger adults: their tissues are mechanically stiffer than those in older patients with the same cancer. Furthermore, stromal remodeling in early‐onset colorectal cancer promotes epithelial mechanotransduction and proliferation, showing how mechanical alterations in the tissue ...

Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Short‐ and Long‐Term Outcomes Following Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction for Colon Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) in colon cancer surgery raises concerns about intra‐abdominal infection, peritoneal seeding, and local recurrence due to possible tumor cell implantation. This systematic review and meta‐analysis compares complete intracorporeal resection with NOSE versus conventional laparoscopic colon ...

First Successful Regeneration of a Structurally Native‐Like Colon Using a Bioabsorbable Polymer Sheet

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study demonstrated that a bioabsorbable polymer sheet (BAPS) can regenerate approximately half the circumference of the colon with native‐like structure and function in an experimental setting. As the model involved immediate closure after perforation and did not reproduce peritonitis, caution is required when considering clinical applicability ...

Perioperative and Oncological Outcomes of Colorectal Cancer Surgery in Obese Patients: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The prognostic value of the log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) across BMI categories was investigated in patients undergoing colorectal cancer resection. The exploratory evidence demonstrates that LODDS serves as a strong prognostic marker, and its adverse effect may be more pronounced in patients with higher BMI.

Effect of oral hypotonic water and isotonic saline on physiological intestinal ¹⁸F-FDG uptake in PET/CT imaging. [PDF]

J Appl Clin Med Phys
Abstract Purpose Hydration of patients before the PET/CT examination may lead to non‐specific FDG accumulation in the intestine. This study aims to explore the influence of isotonic saline and hypotonic water on physiologic intestinal 18F‐FDG uptake in PET/CT imaging.
