Challenges in the future of cancer screening

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 8, Page 2013-2022, 15 April 2026.
Abstract The purpose of cancer screening is to reduce mortality, and ideally incidence, from the cancer screened for. Until recently, cancer screening has been offered to all persons in pre‐defined sex‐ and age‐groups. The exception is lung screening which is targeted to high‐risk individuals.

Synchronous Gastric Metastasis From Sigmoid Colon Cancer: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide, and as such is a significant global health concern. Distant metastases of colorectal cancer to the lung, liver, and bone are well documented, while gastrointestinal tract (GIT) metastases are very rare. Herein, we report a case of gastric metastasis from sigmoid colon cancer.

Geographical Disparities in Faecal Immunochemical Test‐Based Colorectal Cancer Screening Participation and Positivity Rates: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Health Promotion Journal of Australia, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background People in rural and remote areas often participate less actively in colorectal cancer (CRC) prevention practices, including faecal immunochemical testing (FIT). However, the evidence on this is limited. Objective The aim of this systematic review and meta‐analysis was to summarise geographical disparities in participation and ...

Proteomic Profiling of Human Extracellular Vesicles Reveals Diagnostic Biomarkers for Colon Adenocarcinoma

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
Proteomic profiling of tissue explant‐ and plasma‐derived extracellular vesicles identified colon adenocarcinoma‐associated and healthy‐associated EV proteins. A 10‐protein EV panel enabled highly sensitive blood‐based detection of colon adenocarcinoma, showed marked postoperative changes, and retained performance in an independent validation cohort ...
