Colorectal cancer is a common type of digestive tract cancer with a significant morbidity and death rate across the world, partially attributing to the metastasis-associated problems. In this study, integrative bioinformatics analyses were performed to identify genes that might contribute to colorectal cancer metastasis, and 293 genes were dramatically increased and 369 genes were decreased within colon cancer samples. Among up-regulated genes, top five genes correlated with colorectal cancer patient's prognosis were verified for expression in clinical samples and syntrophin beta 1 (SNTB1) was the most up-regulated.

Article Synopsis
- The study compares the impact of robotic-assisted gastrectomy (RAG) and laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) on the surgical learning curve for treating gastric cancer.
- Over 108 cases were analyzed, revealing that RAG had fewer serious complications and lower blood loss, while also cleaning more lymph nodes compared to LAG.
- The results indicate that once surgeons reach a certain number of cases, the learning curve for RAG is easier to master than that for LAG, suggesting that surgical robotics can enhance efficiency and skill acquisition.
Objective: Because the recovery of genitourinary function after total mesorectal excision (TME) is affected by multiple factors, the role of robot-assisted TME technology in postoperative function in previous studies is still controversial. Our study aimed to evaluate the impact of robotic technology on the recovery of genitourinary function after TME for rectal cancer by analysing the correlations between influencing factors of genitourinary function and robotic surgery.
Methods: Between January 2017 and January 2020, patients with rectal cancer (cT1-3NxM0) were registered.
