ABSTRACT
Introducción. El conjunto de estrategias de recuperación mejorada después de la cirugía (ERAS, por sus siglas en inglés) constituye un enfoque de atención multimodal y multidisciplinario, cuyo propósito es reducir el estrés perioperatorio de la cirugía, disminuir la morbilidad y acortar la estancia hospitalaria. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo describir los resultados clínicos de pacientes sometidos a cirugía por cáncer colorrectal, identificando las complicaciones principales y los factores perioperatorios relacionados con el alta temprana. Métodos. Se analizaron los pacientes consecutivos sometidos a cirugía colorrectal entre los años 2020 y 2023, todos los cuales siguieron el protocolo ERAS institucional. Se evaluaron las características clínicas, los factores perioperatorios, los desenlaces postoperatorios y la tasa global de adherencia al protocolo. Resultados. Un total de 456 pacientes fueron sometidos a cirugía colorrectal, 51% de sexo masculino, con edad media de 60 años. La mayoría de las intervenciones se realizaron por laparoscopia (78 %), con una tasa de conversión del 14,5 %. Las complicaciones postoperatorias incluyeron fuga anastomótica (4,6 %), sangrado, infección intraabdominal y obstrucción intestinal. La estancia hospitalaria promedio fue de 4 días y la mortalidad del 2,8 %. La tasa global de adherencia al protocolo ERAS fue del 84,7 %. Conclusiones. El enfoque combinado de cirugía laparoscópica y protocolo ERAS es factible, seguro y se asocia con una estancia hospitalaria más corta. La implementación y adherencia al protocolo ERAS no solo mejora los resultados postoperatorios, sino que también resalta la importancia de acceder a datos sólidos, permitiendo mejorar la atención perioperatoria local.
Introduction. The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol is a multimodal, multidisciplinary approach to care, the purpose of which is to reduce the perioperative stress of surgery, decrease morbidity, and shorten hospital stay. This study aimed to describe the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer, identifying the main complications and perioperative factors related to early discharge. Methods. Consecutive patients undergoing colorectal surgery between 2020 and 2023 were analyzed, who followed the institutional ERAS protocol. Clinical characteristics, perioperative factors, postoperative outcomes, and overall protocol adherence rate were evaluated. Results. A total of 456 patients underwent colorectal surgery, 51% male, with a mean age of 60 years. Most interventions were performed laparoscopically (78%), with a conversion rate of 14.5%. Postoperative complications included anastomotic leak (4.6%), followed by bleeding, intra-abdominal infection, and intestinal obstruction. The average hospital stay was 4 days and mortality was 2.8%. The overall adherence rate to the ERAS protocol was 84.7%. Conclusions. The combined approach of laparoscopic surgery and ERAS protocol is feasible, safe, and associated with a shorter hospital stay. Implementation and adherence to the ERAS protocol not only improves postoperative outcomes, but also highlights the importance of accessing solid data, allowing for improved local perioperative care.

ABSTRACT Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has high mortality rates worldwide. In Brazil, it is the second most common cancer in both sexes. Delay in detecting premalignant lesions contributes to increased morbidity and mortality. In this scenario, the Piranhas project was created to track CRC in a low-income population in the hinterland of Alagoas. Objective: The study aimed to establish the main strategies and verify the feasibility of implementing a CRC tracking program and demonstrate the results obtained in the CRC Prevention Campaign in Piranhas/AL. Methods: The program took place in Piranhas, Alagoas, Brazil, through public-private partnerships. Individuals aged between 50 and 70 years of age were included for screening with a fecal occult blood test (FOBT) and colonoscopy in positive cases. Patient data were collected on standard forms. Results: A total of 2152 patients, aged between 50 and 70 years, were screened, 130 of which underwent colonoscopy. Several preneoplastic lesions were detected in 58 patients. The adenoma detection rate (ADR) was 33.85%. Conclusion: The study proved to be effective and viable since 44.6% of the program participants, who underwent screening with FOBT, followed by colonoscopy in positive cases, had some type of preneoplastic lesion. In addition, the program generated a significant social impact on the population of Piranhas due to the opportunity to diagnose and treat CRC precursor lesions.
RESUMO Contexto: O câncer colorretal (CCR) possui altas taxas de mortalidade em todo mundo. No Brasil é o segundo câncer mais comum em ambos os sexos. O atraso na detecção de lesões pré-malignas contribui com o aumento da morbimortalidade. Neste cenário, o projeto Piranhas foi criado para rastrear o CCR em uma população carente do sertão alagoano. Objetivo: O estudo teve como meta estabelecer as principais estratégias e verificar a viabilidade da implementação de um programa de rastreamento do CCR, assim como demonstrar os resultados obtidos na Campanha de prevenção de CCR no município de Piranhas/AL. Métodos: O programa aconteceu em Piranhas, Alagoas, Brasil, através de parcerias público-privadas. Foram incluídos indivíduos entre 50 e 70 anos para triagem com pesquisa de sangue oculto nas fezes (PSOF) e colonoscopia dos casos positivos. Os dados dos pacientes foram coletados em formulários padrão. Resultados: Foram rastreados um total de 2152 pacientes com idade entre 50 e 70 anos, sendo destes, 130 submetidos à colonoscopia. Várias lesões pré-neoplásicas foram detectadas em 58 pacientes. A taxa de detecção de adenoma foi de 33,85%. Conclusão: O estudo demonstrou-se eficaz e viável, uma vez que 44,6% dos participantes do programa que realizaram a triagem com PSOF seguido de colonoscopia nos casos positivos apresentava algum tipo de lesão pré-neoplásica. Além disso, o programa gerou grande impacto social na população de Piranhas, pela oportunidade de diagnóstico e tratamento de lesões precursoras do CCR.

Conclusiones en los pacientes donde se aplicaron puntos subtotales internos para el cierre de la pared abdominal, los resultados fueron mejores que en grupo donde se emplearon puntos totales.
Foundation an ideal technique has not been established yet to allow laparotomic closure to guarantee the reduction of complications. Objective to compare the results of abdominal wall closure using internal subtotal points and total points in patients operated on for colorectal cancer. Methods a descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional study was carried out at the Dr. Enrique Cabrera General Teaching Hospital, from 2019 to 2021, with 80 patients operated on for colorectal cancer. The Chi-square test, Fisher's exact test and the Mann-Whitney U test, among others, were used. Results the tumor was located in the sigmoid colon in 35% of patients with total suture closure; and in 31.7% of the group with closure by subtotal points. Surgery was urgent in 80% of the group with total stitch closure; and elective in 75% of the closing cases with subtotal points. The incision was median supra and infraumbilical in 70% of the patients in the group with total suture closure; and xiphopubic in 66.7% of those at closure with subtotal points. There were medians of 3 ± 2 and 1 ± 0 complications for closure with total stitches and closure with subtotal stitches, respectively. Median hospital stay was longer in the total stitch closure group (8 ± 6 days). Conclusions in the patients where internal subtotal sutures were applied for abdominal wall closure, the results were better than in the group where total sutures were used.
ABSTRACT
Cáncer colorrectal post-colonoscopia (CCRP) es el tumor que aparece posterior a una colonoscopia normal antes de cumplirse el tiempo establecido para seguimiento endoscópico. Origen multifactorial, refleja la calidad de la colonoscopia y las diferentes biologías tumorales entre los cánceres colorrectales detectados (CCRD) y el CCRP. Nuestro objetivo es describir las características del CCRP en nuestro medio, identificar factores de riesgo, discriminar sus causas según la Organización Mundial de Endoscopia (OME) y determinar el efecto en la sobrevida del paciente. El estudio se realizó en pacientes con cáncer-colorrectal (CCR) atendidos en consulta de gastro-oncología de dos instituciones en Medellín-Colombia, entre enero de 2012 y diciembre de 2021 que se habían sometido a una colonoscopia en los 6 a 36 meses anteriores a la colonoscopia en la que se diagnosticó el CCR. 919 pacientes durante 10 años por CCR, 68 casos de CCRP (6,9%), se encontró que se presenta con más frecuencia en pacientes mayores (74 vs. 66 años; p=0,03), con antecedentes de pólipos adenomatosos (36,8% vs. 20,1%; p=0,01) y en colon derecho (57,4% vs. 40,6%; p=0,006), con una tendencia en pacientes con diverticulosis (41,2% vs. 31,3%; p=0,05) y diabetes (25% vs. 14%; p=0,06); menor sobrevida a 5 y 10 años (58%-55,2% vs. 67%-63%; p<0,001). Según la OME, los CCRP se presentaron en 61,3% por lesiones omitidas en colonoscopias inadecuadas, 29% colonoscopias adecuadas y 9,7% resecciones incompletas de adenomas. En conclusión, la tasa de CCRP fue de 6,9%, con mayor propensión en pacientes de mayores, antecedente de resección de pólipos, y en colon derecho. Acorde a la OME, las lesiones omitidas más frecuentemente se relacionaron con colonoscopias inadecuadas. Los pacientes con CCRP tienen menor sobrevida.
Post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer (PCCRC) is a tumor that appears after a normal colonoscopy before the established time for the endoscopic follow up. Its origin reflects the quality of the colonoscopy and the different tumoral biologics between the CRC and the CRCPC. Our aim is to describe the characteristics of the PCCRC in our region, to identify risk factors, to discriminate the potential causes according to the World Endoscopý Organization (WEO) and to determine its impact in the patient's survival. We studied patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) attended at the gastro-oncology clinic of two institutions of Medellin-Colombia, between January 2012 and December 2021 that had been submitted to a colonoscopy between 6-36 months before the colonoscopy in which the CRC was diagnosed. 919 patients during 10 years for CRC, 68 cases of PCCRC (6.9%); It was more frequent in older patients (74 vs. 66 years; p=0.03), with background of adenomatous polyps (36.8% vs. 20.1%; p=0.01) and in right colon (57.4% vs. 40.6%; p=0.006), with a tendency in patients with diverticulosis (41.2% vs. 31.3%; p=0.05) and diabetes (25% vs. 14%; p=0.06); less survival at 5 and 10 years (58% and 55.2% vs. 67% and 63%; p<0.001). According to the WEO, the PCCRC presents in 61.3% because of abnormal findings omitted in inadequate colonoscopies, 29% in a suitable colonoscopy and 9.7% incomplete resections of adenomas. In conclusion, the rate of PCCRC was 6.9% with more propension in older patients, a background of polyp resection, and proximal colon. According to the WEO, the abnormal findings omitted more frequently were related with inadequate colonoscopies. The patients with PCCRC had less survival.
ABSTRACT
El cáncer colorrectal (CCR) durante el embarazo es una neoplasia poco frecuente, con una incidencia entre el 0,07- 0,1% en la población. Para un diagnóstico preciso es necesaria una alta sospecha y con ello realizar pruebas diagnósticas oportunas. Cuando no se tiene sospecha ni se busca el diagnóstico, el pronóstico suele ser malo, ya que muchas veces se halla en estado avanzado. Presentamos los casos de dos gestantes de 27 y 31 años, diagnosticadas de adenocarcinoma colorrectales medianamente diferenciados a las 29 y 30 semanas de gestación, respectivamente. Debido a la importancia de realizar un diagnóstico oportuno para mejorar la sobrevida de las pacientes, se realizó una búsqueda de información en la literatura en relación con el diagnóstico, manejo y pronóstico de esta patología.
Colon rectal cancer (CRC) during pregnancy is a rare neoplasia, with an incidence between 0.07-0.1% in the population. For an early diagnosis, a high suspicion is necessary and with it, timely diagnostic tests are carried out. When there is no suspicion and no diagnosis is sought, the prognosis is usually poor since it is often in an advanced state. We present the cases of two pregnant women aged 27 and 31 diagnosed with moderately differentiated colorectal adenocarcinoma at 29 and 30 weeks of gestation, respectively. Due to the importance of making an opportune diagnosis to improve the survival of the patients, a search of information was carried out in the literature in relation to the diagnosis, management and prognosis of this pathology.

Introducción. La fuga anastomótica es la complicación más grave del tratamiento quirúrgico del cáncer de colon por su alta morbimortalidad. El diagnóstico evidente, manifestado por la salida de contenido intestinal por drenajes o la herida quirúrgica, ocurre tardíamente (entre el 6º y 8º día). El objetivo de este trabajo fue estudiar la variación de los valores de la proteína C reactiva postoperatoria para hacer un diagnóstico precoz. Métodos. Estudio observacional, analítico, retrospectivo, de una cohorte de pacientes con neoplasia, en quienes se realizó cirugía oncológica con anastomosis intestinal, entre enero de 2019 y diciembre de 2021. Se midieron los valores en sangre de proteína C reactiva postoperatoria (1°, 3° y 5° días). Resultados. Se compararon 225 casos operados que no presentaron fuga con 45 casos con fuga. En los casos sin fuga, el valor de proteína C reactiva al 3º día fue de 148 mg/l y al 5º día de 71 mg/l, mientras en los casos con fuga, los valores fueron de 228,24 mg/l y 228,04 mg/l, respectivamente (p<0,05). Para un valor de 197 mg/l al 3º día la sensibilidad fue de 77 % y para un valor de 120 mg/l al 5º día la sensibilidad fue de 84 %. Conclusión. El mejor resultado de proteína C reactiva postoperatoria para detectar precozmente la fuga anastomótica se observó al 5º día. El valor de 127 mg/l tuvo la mejor sensibilidad, especificidad y valor predictivo negativo, lo cual permitiría el diagnóstico temprano y manejo oportuno de esta complicación
Introduction. Anastomotic leak is the most serious complication of surgical treatment of colon cancer due to its high morbidity and mortality. The obvious diagnosis manifested by the exit of intestinal content through drains or the operative wound, occurs late (between the 6th and 8th day). The objective of this work was to study the postoperative C-reactive protein values to make an early diagnosis. Methods. Observational, analytical, retrospective study of a cohort of patients undergoing colorectal surgery for neoplasia, between January 2019 and December 2021, who underwent oncological surgery with intestinal anastomosis and measured CRP blood values on 1st, 3rd and 5th post-operative days. Results. Two-hundred-twenty-five operated cases that did not present leaks were compared with 45 cases with leaks, with CRP values on the 3rd and 5th day of 148mg/l and 71mg/l in cases without leakage and CRP values of 228.24mg/l and 228.04 mg/l in cases with leakage on the 3rd and 5th day, respectively (p<0.05), CRP value of 197mg/l on the 3rd day has a sensitivity of 77%; CRP value of 120mg/l on the 5th day, has a sensitivity of 84%. Conclusions. The best result for CPR to early diagnosis of anastomotic leak was observed on the 5th day, having the value of 127 mg/l the best sensitivity, specificity and NPV, which would allow early diagnosis and timely management

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Colorectal cancer is the third most diagnosed malignant neoplasm in the world and the fourth leading cause of cancer mortality. The loss of muscle mass in oncological patients is the main aspect of cancer-related malnutrition. Associations between sarcopenia and poor outcomes, such as high postoperative mortality, chemotherapy toxicity, and reduced survival, have been recently described. The aim of this study was to prospectively assess the prevalence of preoperative sarcopenia in patients with colorectal cancer using validated methods to evaluate muscle strength, muscle mass, and physical performance. METHODOLOGY: This study included patients with colorectal cancer undergoing oncological staging at a Cancer Center in Brazil from May 2019 to March 2020 who had images from abdominal computed tomography available for analysis of body composition. The muscle strength test, physical performance, referred fatigue, and clinical and nutritional data were evaluated. RESULTS: A total of 31 patients were included, and most were diagnosed with colon cancer (77.4%) and clinical stage II in 41.9% of cases. The prevalence of probable sarcopenia was 22.6%; of these patients, sarcopenia was confirmed in 19.4%, and ultimately, 9.7% of the sample was classified as severe sarcopenia. We did not find a significant association between the presence of sarcopenia in our sample and age, sex, tumor staging, nutritional characteristics, referred patient fatigue, or postoperative complications. CONCLUSION: Considering the criteria established by the EWGSOP, the prevalence of preoperative sarcopenia in colorectal cancer patients was 19.4%.
ABSTRACT
El cáncer colorrectal (CCR) es una de las causas más frecuentes de mortalidad por cáncer en el mundo. Las lesiones serradas son responsables de 10 a 20% de todos los CCR. Los pólipos serrados, en particular los adenomas serrados sésiles (ASS) y adenomas serrados tradicionales (AST), tienen una apariencia sutil y localización proximal, y por ello presentan una alta tasa de lesiones perdidas. El objetivo de la presente revisión fue evaluar la evidencia disponible sobre el uso de diversas intervenciones endoscópicas para mejorar la tasa de detección de las lesiones serradas, para de esta forma, disminuir la mortalidad relacionada al CCR.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common causes of cancer mortality in the world. Serrated lesions are responsible for 10 to 20% of all CRCs. Serrated polyps, particularly sessile serrated adenomas (SSA) and traditional serrated adenomas (TSA), have a subtle appearance and proximal location, and therefore have a high miss rate. The objective of this review was to evaluate the available evidence on the use of various endoscopic interventions for improving serrated lesion detection rate, thus reducing CRC related mortality.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the expression of PRMT5 protein in colorectal cancer tissues and its relationship with recurrence after curative resection.Methods:The clinical data of 154 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent radical resection in Zigong Fourth People′s Hospital from February 2016 to April 2018 were retrospectively reviewed, the colorectal cancer tissues and adjacent tissues samples of them were retained at the time of surgery. The PRMT5 protein expressions in each specimen were determined by immunohistochemistry. The recurrence status of patients during the 3-year postoperative follow-up period was counted, and they were divided into recurrence group and no recurrence group.The positive expression rates of PRMT5 protein in colorectal cancer tissues between the two group was compared, and Cox regression model analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of recurrence after radical resection of colorectal cancer.Results:The positive expression rate of PRMT5 protein in the colorectal cancer tissues was higher than that in the adjacent tissues: 70.13%(108/154) vs. 16.23%(25/154), there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 91.16, P<0.01). Within 3 years after surgery, the recurrence rate was 20.13%(31/154), and the positive expression rate of PRMT5 protein in the recurrence group was higher than that in the no recurrence group: 93.55%(29/31) vs. 64.23%(79/123), there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 10.16, P<0.05). The results of Cox regression model analysis showed that the tumor stage, lymph node metastasis and positive expression of PRMT5 protein in colorectal cancer tissues were independent risk factors for recurrence after radical resection of colorectal cancer ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The PRMT5 protein shows high expression in colorectal cancer tissues, and it is closely related to postoperative recurrence, and its positive expression can increase the risk of postoperative recurrence in patients with colorectal cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the effects of different carbon dioxide (CO 2) pneumoperitoneum pressures combined general anesthesia with sevoflurane-propofol on cerebral oxygenmetabolism balance and stress response in elderly patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. Methods:A retrospective collection of 100 colon cancer cases from February 2020 to February 2021 in the Jiading Branch of Shanghai First People′s Hospital (Jiangqiao Hospital, Jiading District) and the Shanghai First People′s Hospital were divided into low pressure group and high pressure group according to different CO 2 pneumoperitoneum pressure values, each with 50 cases and 12 mmHg(1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) and 18 mmHg CO 2 pneumoperitoneum pressure values were used to inflate, and the perioperative status, cerebral oxygen metabolism status, and stress response of the two groups were observed. Results:The take food time, first time out of bed in the low pressure group were lower than those in the high pressure group: (45.67 ± 7.34) h vs. (49.67 ± 8.16) h, (34.69 ± 8.26) h vs. (39.87 ± 7.16) h, there were statistical differences( P<0.05). The time of first anal exhaust and hospital stay in the two groups had no significant differences ( P>0.05). Repeated measures analysis of variance results showed that the levels of partial pressure of carbon dioxide in artery, oxyhemoglobin saturation, arterial blood lactate acid, benous blood lactic acid were different followed the time and treatment methods ( P<0.05). The levels of heart rate, mean arterial pressure, cortisol and thyroid stimulating hormone in the low pressure group were higher than those in the high pressure group: (73.68 ± 6.35) beats/min vs. (84.84 ± 6.86) beats/min, (81.67 ± 13.68) mmHg vs. (93.68 ± 14.37) mmHg, (100.24 ± 12.34) μg/L vs. (135.68 ± 13.69) μg/L, (3.12 ± 0.43) mU/L vs. (3.54 ± 0.34) mU/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Different CO 2 pneumoperitoneal pressures affect the brain oxygen metabolism of patients, and clinical attention should be paid to them.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the effects of pressure controlled ventilation (PCV) and volume controlled ventilation (VCV) on respiratory mechanics, hemodynamics and biochemical metabolism in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 78 patients underwent laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery from August 2019 to June 2020 in Inner Mongolia People′s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 39 patients were treated with PCV (PCV group), and 39 were treated with VCV (VCV group). The respiratory mechanics, hemodynamics and biochemical metabolism indexes 10 min after anesthesia induction (T 1), 10 min after pneumoperitoneum + low head and foot height (T 2), 60 min after pneumoperitoneum + low head and foot height (T 3) and 120 min after pneumoperitoneum + low head and foot height (T 4) were recorded. The respiratory mechanical indexes included mean airway pressure (P mean), airway peak pressure (P peak), pressure of end tidal carbon dioxide (P ETCO 2) and dynamic lung compliance (C Ldyn); hemodynamic indexes included mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate; and biochemical metabolic indexes included base excess, serum natrium, serum potassium, negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration (pH) and blood glucose. Results:The P mean, P peak and P ETCO 2 T 1 to T 4 in PCV group were significantly lower than those in VCV group, P mean: (7.12 ± 1.37) cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa) vs. (8.54 ± 1.84) cmH 2O, (9.80 ± 2.26) cmH 2O vs. (11.63 ± 2.87) cmH 2O, (9.51 ± 2.17) cmH 2O vs. (11.72 ± 2.90) cmH 2O, (7.04 ± 1.34) cmH 2O vs. (8.65 ± 1.88) cmH 2O; P peak: (13.41 ± 2.68) cmH 2O vs. (15.06 ± 3.05) cmH 2O, (20.92 ± 3.11) cmH 2O vs. (23.45 ± 4.02) cmH 2O, (21.14 ± 3.50) cmH 2O vs. (23.69 ± 4.26) cmH 2O, (15.03 ± 2.74) cmH 2O vs. (16.45 ± 3.21) cmH 2O; P ETCO 2: (30.59 ± 1.57) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) vs. (32.04 ± 2.11) mmHg, (35.02 ± 4.15) mmHg vs. (39.88 ± 4.76) mmHg, (35.90 ± 4.22) mmHg vs. (40.11 ± 4.87) mmHg, (34.33 ± 4.17) mmHg vs. (37.65 ± 2.69) mmHg; the C Ldyn was significantly higher than that in VCV group: (40.68 ± 3.98) ml/cmH 2O vs. (35.47 ± 2.56) ml/cmH 2O, (30.25 ± 3.21) ml/cmH 2O vs. (22.40 ± 2.75) ml/cmH 2O, (29.78 ± 3.06) ml/cmH 2O vs. (22.60 ± 2.81) ml/cmH 2O, (40.32 ± 4.25) ml/cmH 2O vs. (33.61 ± 2.81) ml/cmH 2O, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). The MAP and heart rate T 1 to T 4 in PCV group were significantly lower than those in VCV group, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01 or <0.05). The base excess, serum natrium, serum potassium and pH T 1 to T 4 in PCV group were significantly higher than those in VCV group, while the blood glucose was significantly lower than that in VCV group, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01 or <0.05). Conclusions:Compared with VCV, PCV can promote the recovery of respiratory mechanics index, stabilize hemodynamics and improve biochemical metabolism index in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery.

A total of 116 patients with colorectal cancer from department of Colorectal Surgery, Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from March to Deamber, 2021 were selected by convenience sampling method. They were divided into two groups according to their admission time, the experimental group (58 cases), was given precise oral nutrition guidance program after colorectal cancer surgery based. In the control group, 58 cases were treated with the conventional dietary guidance for rapid rehabilitation. The gastrointestinal tolerance rate, the compliance rate of oral nutritional supplements, the first defecation time after operation, albumin, total albumin, prealbumin and other nutritional indexes were compared between the two groups before and after intervention.Results:Finally, 111 cases were included, induding 56 in the experimental group and 55 in the control group. The compliance rate of oral nutritional supplements after intervention in the experimental group was 73.2% (41/56), higher than that in the control group 40.0%(22/55), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 12.47, P<0.05). The first defecation time after operation in the experimental group was (29.51 ± 5.52) h, while in the control group was (61.48 ± 8.39) h, the difference between the two groups was significant ( t = -12.06, P<0.05). The postoperative enteral nutrition tolerance rate of the experimental group was 91.1% (51/56), which was higher than the 69.1%(38/55) in the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 8.44, P<0.05). The serum total protein, albumin and prealbumin levels of the experimental group at discharge were (66.56 ± 5.15), (46.78 ± 7.62) g/L and (276.07 ± 53.57) mg/L, compared with the (60.27 ± 4.37), (39.12 ± 6.41) g/L and (230.14 ± 44.58) mg/L in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t = 6.66, 5.02, 4.91, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The implementation of precise oral nutrition guidance program is conducive to guiding the clinical practice of oral nutritional supplements in patients with colorectal cancer after surgery, improving patient compliance, reducing gastrointestinal intolerance, promoting intestinal function recovery, and improving nutritional status of patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore and analyze the value of detection of peripheral blood miR-194 combined with fecal miR-143 in the clinical screening of colorectal cancer.Methods:A total of 83 patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer by pathological tissue admitted to Huangshi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Hubei Province from October 2019 to October 2020 were selected as the observation group, and 50 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examinations during the same period were selected as the control group. The levels of miR-194 in peripheral blood and miR-143 in feces were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR. The level difference between the two groups and their correlations with clinicopathological parameters of patients with colorectal cancer were analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn based on peripheral blood miR-194 and fecal miR-143 to evaluate their value for clinical screening of colorectal cancer.Results:The level of miR-194 in peripheral blood of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (1.91±0.34 vs. 0.76±0.23) , while the level of fecal miR-143 in the observation group being significantly lower than that of the control group (1.85±0.43 vs. 2.48±0.62) , with statistically significant differences ( t=21.16, P<0.001; t=6.91, P<0.001) . Age of patients with colorectal cancer ( t=0.83, P=0.408; t=1.17, P=0.244) , TNM stage ( t=1.03, P=0.307; t=0.11, P=0.909) , lymphatic metastasis ( t=0.37, P=0.711; t=1.85, P=0.068) , distant metastasis ( t=0.41, P=0.683; t=1.72, P=0.089) were not correlated with the levels of peripheral blood miR-194 and fecal miR-143. When the cut-off value of miR-194 in peripheral blood was 1.82, the area under the ROC curve for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer was 0.76, and the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 79.38% and 74.29%, respectively. When the cut-off value of fecal miR-143 was 2.16, the area under the ROC curve for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer was 0.71. At this time, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 76.54% and 73.61%, respectively. The area under ROC curve of combined detection for colorectal cancer was 0.81, and the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 83.46% and 75.43%, respectively. Conclusion:Peripheral blood miR-194 is highly expressed in colorectal cancer patients, and fecal miR-143 is low in colorectal cancer patients. The combined detection of the two has a high sensitivity for early diagnosis of colorectal cancer, which can provide important reference basis for early diagnosis of colorectal cancer and has high clinical application value.
ABSTRACT
In recent years, immunotherapy, especially immune checkpoint inhibitors, has shown obvious advantages in prolonging the survival of patients with advanced tumors, and the tumor microenvironment is one of the important factors affecting the efficacy of immunity. Patients with microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer exhibit immune responses in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. In-depth exploration of the tumor microenvironment characteristics of microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer and the application of combined immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy can provide new ideas and directions for colorectal cancer immunotherapy.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To screen the factors influencing overall survival (OS) of patients undergoing radical resection for colorectal cancer (CRC) and to construct a prognostic model for OS of patients after CRC.Methods:The clinical data of 350 patients with stage Ⅰ-Ⅳ CRC who underwent radical resection in the People's Hospital of Wuhan University from March 2017 to December 2019 were collected retrospectively. Patients were divided into subgroups 0 ( n=70), 1 ( n=172), and 2 ( n=108) according to different preoperative systemic inflammation score (SIS). The relationship between different SIS, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII) and prognosis of CRC patients undergoing radical surgical resection were analyzed, and Cox regression models were used to perform univariate and multifactorial analyses of factors affecting patient prognosis, and column line graph models were constructed based on the results of multifactorial analyses. Results:By the deadline of follow-up, 80 of 350 CRC patients died, and the 5-year OS rate was 77.14%. The 5-year survival rates of patients in SIS group 0, group 1 and group 2 were 95.71%, 79.65% and 61.11% respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=30.19, P<0.001). Statistically significant differences in age ( χ2=19.40, P<0.001), tumor site ( χ2=8.18, P=0.017), T stage ( χ2=10.01, P=0.007), TNM stage ( χ2=14.80, P=0.001), tumor diameter ( χ2=13.91, P=0.001) and carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) level ( χ2=10.12, P=0.006) among patients in SIS group 0, group 1 and group 2. The 5-year OS rates of patients in the low NLR and high NLR groups were 82.67% and 56.16% respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=24.96, P<0.001) ; the 5-year OS rates of patients in the low LMR and high LMR groups were 66.85% and 88.17% respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=22.45, P<0.001) ; the 5-year OS rates of patients in the low SII and high SII groups were 86.14% and 69.02% respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=14.76, P<0.001). Univariate analysis showed that age ( HR=2.58, 95% CI: 1.54-4.32, P<0.001), T stage ( HR=2.41, 95% CI: 1.24-4.68, P=0.009), N stage ( HR=3.03, 95% CI: 1.85-4.94, P<0.001), TNM stage ( HR=3.61, 95% CI: 2.15-6.04, P<0.001), nerve invasion ( HR=1.97, 95% CI: 1.27-3.08, P=0.002), vascular invasion ( HR=2.31, 95% CI: 1.49-3.59, P<0.001), preoperative SIS 1 score ( HR=5.09, 95% CI: 1.57-16.56, P=0.007), SIS 2 score ( HR=11.05, 95% CI: 3.42-35.65, P<0.001), NLR ( HR=2.97, 95% CI: 1.90-4.64, P<0.001), LMR ( HR=0.31, 95% CI: 0.19-0.52, P<0.001), and SII ( HR=2.50, 95% CI: 1.54-4.06, P<0.001) were all independent influence factors affecting the postoperative prognosis of CRC patients undergoing radical surgical resection; multivariate analysis showed that age >60 years ( HR=2.27, 95% CI: 1.31-3.91, P=0.003), TNM stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ ( HR=7.08, 95% CI: 1.89-26.59, P=0.004), and preoperative SIS 2 score ( HR=4.02, 95% CI: 1.09-14.83, P=0.037) were all independent risk factors affecting the postoperative prognosis of CRC patients undergoing radical surgical resection. The nomogram model built based on the screened variables has high prediction accuracy: the C-index of the nomogram was 0.75. Conclusion:Age>60 years old, TNM stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, SIS 2 score are all independent risk factors for postoperative prognosis of colorectal cancer. The nomograph model constructed by this method has high prediction accuracy.
ABSTRACT
Multidrug resistance impacts negatively upon the curative effect of chemotherapy and prognosis in colorectal cancer. There is a growing body of studies trying to develop drugs to overcome multidrug resistance against its common targets, including ATP-binding cassette proteins, metabolic enzymes, apoptotic genes, signaling pathways and genetic material, among which P-glycoprotein inhibitors and drugs disrupting DNA are deeply developed. Developing new inhibitors or combining existing inhibitors with conventional treatment are hopeful ways to overcome multidrug resistance in colorectal cancer.
