This review of the status and challenges of diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in colon cancer suggests that it is currently difficult to establish strict criteria for lymph node metastasis, indicating only moderate diagnostic performance. ABSTRACT Background Accurate pre‐treatment evaluation of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in colon cancer is important ...

ABSTRACT Background Preoperative malnutrition and systemic inflammation are established determinants of adverse outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC). Transthyretin (TTR), a rapid‐turnover hepatic protein, reflects both nutritional and inflammatory status; however, its clinical utility may be influenced by age‐ and sex‐related variability.

This study demonstrates that a preoperative FIB‐4 index ≥ 5.0 independently predicts severe complications and endogenous organ failure (EOF) following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. By capturing structural liver fragility and systemic vulnerability, the FIB‐4 index enhances surgical risk stratification beyond traditional functional markers ...

A significant synergistic interaction between operator and assistant certification was associated with a lower risk of local recurrence after laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. Patients treated by both ESSQS‐qualified operators and assistants had the lowest risk of local recurrence, whereas a single qualification alone was not associated with a ...
