Patient‐Reported‐Outcome‐Measures (PROMs) After Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Resections

United European Gastroenterology Journal, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Data on patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) of patients undergoing endoscopic resections have been sparse. The aim of our study was the prospective assessment of the Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI) as a baseline and post‐endoscopic resection (ER) measurement in patients with epithelial mucosal neoplasms ...

Association between TAS2R38 gene polymorphisms and colorectal cancer risk [PDF]

, 2011
Molecular sensing in the lingual mucosa and in the gastro-intestinal tract play a role in the detection of ingested harmful drugs and toxins. Therefore, genetic polymorphisms affecting the capability of initiating these responses may be critical for the ...

Risk of colorectal cancer by family history of both colorectal carcinomas and colorectal polyps: a nationwide cohort study

Cancer Communications, Volume 45, Issue 11, Page 1407-1416, November 2025.
Abstract Background The increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) associated with family history of both colorectal in situ or invasive carcinomas (Stage 0 to IV) and colorectal polyps is attributed solely to family history of CRC, resulting in an underestimation of the actual risk. We aimed to assess the association between overall and early‐onset CRC

Inaccuracy of Ureteroscopic Biopsy in Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma Can Lead to False Therapeutic Decisions: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Do not rely solely on negative endoscopic biopsies when diagnosing upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Repeat ureteroscopy with biopsy if initial results are negative to reduce false negatives. Frozen section analysis (FSA) can provide rapid intraoperative confirmation and guide treatment decisions.
