Impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic on colorectal cancer surgery in Japan: Clinical Study Group of Osaka University―A multicenter retrospective study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 121-130, January 2023., 2023
This study aimed to investigate the impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic on colorectal cancer treatment in Japan, that was not fully understood. The COVID‐19 pandemic has reduced the number of colonoscopies and surgeries for colorectal cancer and hindered the detection of asymptomatic early‐stage cancers.

Prognosis prediction of stage IV colorectal cancer patients by mRNA transcriptional profile

Cancer Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 24, Page 4900-4912, December 2022., 2022
This study aimed to clarify the prognostic factors for stage IV CRC patients undergoing primary cancer resection but not liver metastasis resection. WES and RNA‐Seq were used to sequence primary cancer tissues of 78 and 84 patients, respectively. Models were established to stratify the prognosis and to predict individual patient prognosis.

Impact of race‐specific screening guideline on the uptake of colorectal cancer screening among young African Americans

Cancer Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 24, Page 5013-5024, December 2022., 2022
This study used the 2015 and 2018 National Health Interview Survey to investigate the impact of the 2017 U.S. Multi‐Society Task Force's race‐specific guidelines on colorectal cancer screening rate among young African Americans. Compared to young non‐African Americans, the adjusted predicted probability of colorectal cancer screening for young African ...

Analysis of lesion localisation at colonoscopy: outcomes from a multi-centre U.K. study [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Colonoscopy is currently the gold standard for detection of colorectal lesions, but may be limited in anatomically localising lesions. This audit aimed to determine the accuracy of colonoscopy lesion localisation, any subsequent changes in

Virtual colonoscopy versus optical colonoscopy [PDF]

Expert Opinion on Medical Diagnostics, 2010
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD: The high prevalence of colon carcinoma combined with the low compliance of currently recommended screening guidelines explains the continued high mortality rate of colon cancer. Utilizing a strategy of virtual colonoscopy (VC) in asymptomatic patients over 50, with optical colonoscopy (OC) follow-up for removal of detected ...
