The definition of early recurrence (ER) for right-sided colon cancer patients after complete mesocolic excision (CME) with D3 lymphadenectomy remains unclear. This study aimed to define the optimal time for ER and clarify risk factors for ER and post-recurrence survival (PRS). A total of 578 right-sided colon cancer patients who underwent CME with D3 lymphadenectomy were included.

Methods: From June 2018 to June 2019,72 subjects from Huzhou Central Hospital were enrolled, including 42 CMD in-patients with typical chest pain or chest tightness and positive treadmill exercise stress test, but without coronary stenosis on coronary angiography, (the CMD group) and another 30 healthy individuals who were undergoing physical examinations in an outpatient clinic (the control group). Using 3D-STI technique, the global longitudinal strain (GLS), global radial strain (GRS), global circumferential strain (GCS), global area strain (GAS), and left ventricle were measured.
