Computed tomographic colonography compared with colonoscopy or barium enema for diagnosis of colorectal cancer in older symptomatic patients: two multicentre randomised trials with economic evaluation (the SIGGAR trials)

Health Technology Assessment, 2015
Background: Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) is a relatively new diagnostic test that may be superior to existing alternatives to investigate the large bowel.

Cancer screening in people living with HIV

Cancer Medicine, Volume 12, Issue 21, Page 20590-20603, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Cancer is the leading cause of mortality in people living with HIV (PWH) and is expected to account for a growing fraction of deaths as PWH age. Methods In this literature review, we have compiled the most recent developments in cancer screening and screening performance in PWH, which are currently primarily implemented in well ...

Double‐contrast barium enema is no longer justified as a backup examination for colonoscopy in the population screening program: Population study in an organized fecal immunochemical test‐based screening program

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 38, Issue 8, Page 1299-1306, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Background and Aim Currently, some countries still acknowledge double‐contrast barium enema (DCBE) as a backup confirmatory examination when colonoscopy is not feasible or incomplete in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening programs. This study aims to compare the performance of colonoscopy and DCBE in terms of the risk of incident CRC after ...

Systematic review of shared decision‐making in guidelines about colorectal cancer screening

European Journal of Cancer Care, Volume 31, Issue 6, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Introduction We aimed to systematically evaluate quality of shared decision‐making (SDM) in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) and consensus statements (CSs). Methods Search for CRC screening guidances was from 2010 to November 2021 in EMBASE, Web of Science, MEDLINE, Scopus and CDSR, and the World Wide Web ...

Systematic review: non‐endoscopic surveillance for colorectal neoplasia in individuals with Lynch syndrome

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 55, Issue 7, Page 778-788, April 2022., 2022
Summary Background Individuals with Lynch syndrome are at high risk for colorectal cancer (CRC). Regular colonoscopies have proven to decrease CRC incidence and mortality. However, colonoscopy is burdensome and interval CRCs still occur. Hence, an accurate, less‐invasive screening method that guides the timing of colonoscopy would be of important value.

[Retracted] Identification of Hub Genes for Early Diagnosis and Predicting Prognosis in Colon Adenocarcinoma

BioMed Research International, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) is among the most common digestive system malignancies worldwide, and its pathogenesis and gene signatures remain unclear. This study explored the genetic characteristics and molecular mechanisms underlying colon cancer development. Three gene expression data sets were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.
