Local recurrence after local excision of early rectal cancer: a meta‐analysis of completion TME, adjuvant (chemo)radiation, or no additional treatment

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 13, Page 1719-1730, December 2020., 2020
This meta‐analysis showed that patients who undergo no additional treatment after local excision of pT1–2 rectal cancer have a high risk of local recurrence, especially those with high‐risk pT1 and pT2 lesions. The risk of local recurrence after adjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy for high‐risk pT1 tumours seems to be similar to that after completion TME. For

Incidence and recurrence rate of sigmoid diverticulitis in patients requiring admission to hospital in Iceland from 1985 to 2014: nationwide population‐based register study

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1217-1226, December 2020., 2020
Has there been an epidemic of sigmoid diverticulitis in Iceland, with the highest incidence around 1995? Changes in the prevalence of smoking, differences in diagnostic methods and improved health in older generations are possible causes of the rise and fall in incidence of sigmoid diverticulitis.

Factors associated with metachronous metastases and survival in locally advanced and recurrent rectal cancer

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1172-1179, December 2020., 2020
Surgery for locally advanced and recurrent rectal cancer can achieve good survival outcomes. Some histopathological features significantly increase the number of metachronous metastases and shorten survival. Presentation with a synchronous metastasis that is treated successfully significantly increases the number of metachronous metastases and shortens

C‐reactive protein : albumin ratio in patients with resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1146-1152, December 2020., 2020
This study showed that a high C‐reactive protein : albumin ratio (CAR) is an independent predictor of poor recurrence‐free survival in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). The results also suggest that patients with ICC with a high CAR had a more aggressive tumour behaviour, including a larger tumour size, higher frequency of ...

Hemithyroidectomy versus total thyroidectomy for well differentiated T1–2 N0 thyroid cancer: systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 987-994, December 2020., 2020
This systematic review and meta‐analysis showed similar recurrence rates after hemithyroidectomy for selected patients with well differentiated T1–2 N0 thyroid cancer to those in patients who had a total thyroidectomy with or without radioactive iodine treatment, with lower reported rates of treatment‐related complications.

Topical treatment of equine sarcoids with imiquimod 5% cream or Sanguinaria canadensis and zinc chloride – an open prospective study

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 471-e126, December 2020., 2020
Background – Equine sarcoids are the most prevalent skin neoplasm in horses worldwide. Although several treatments are available, none are consistently effective and recurrence is common. Objectives – To evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical imiquimod 5% cream and Sanguinaria canadensis + zinc chloride for treatment of equine sarcoids and ...

Meta‐analysis of the impact of postoperative infective complications on oncological outcomes in colorectal cancer surgery

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 737-747, October 2020., 2020
Postoperative infective complications have significant negative effects on oncological outcomes in colorectal cancer. Anastomotic leakage has a negative effect on every measured outcome. New registries should include oncological outcomes and complications to facilitate future research and optimize outcomes.

Early operative management in patients with adhesive small bowel obstruction: population‐based cost analysis

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 914-923, October 2020., 2020
This population‐based cost–utility analysis compared early operative management (EOM) for adhesive small bowel obstruction (SBO) to the current standard of care of a trial of non‐operative management. Although EOM was more costly, it was associated with a significantly lower risk of recurrence and reduced exposure to the morbidity and costs associated ...

Prevalence of low anterior resection syndrome and impact on quality of life after rectal cancer surgery: population‐based study

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 935-942, October 2020., 2020
A consequence of rectal cancer surgery is bowel dysfunction, also known as low anterior resection syndrome (LARS). In this cross‐sectional study, the prevalence of major LARS was 53·1 per cent. Major LARS was associated with a greater impact on bowel‐related quality of life.
