The impact of supervised and home exercise activity intervention on circulating immune cell numbers in cancer patients.

Introduction: Malignant diseases challenge clinicians to balance treatment intensity and patient quality of life. Regular physical activity positively impacts mental and physical health, benefiting sleep patterns, heart rate, and overall health. Moreover, telehealth physical exercise training represents a viable option for maintaining intrinsic capacity.

Early-onset pancreatic cancer: A national cancer registry study from the Czech Republic and review of the literature.

Background: The aim of this study was to compare trends in mortality and incidence, clinicopathological features and survival of patients diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma under 50 years of age (early-onset pancreatic cancer [EOPC]) with patients diagnosed over 50 years of age (late-onset pancreatic cancer [LOPC]).

Methods: The national oncological registry of the Czech Republic was reviewed to identify all patients with histologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma diagnosed between the years 1985 and 2015. Incidence, mortality, clinicopathological and survival data were analyzed and compared between patients with EOPC and LOPC.

Coverage by examinations associated with early detection of colorectal neoplasia in the Czech Republic.

Background: Coverage by examinations is a crucial indicator of the future impact on the burden of colorectal cancer (CRC). The study aimed to evaluate coverage by examinations associated with CRC screening and early cancer detection of CRC in the Czech Republic. The burden of CRC was also assessed.

The risk of second primary malignancies in colorectal cancer patients using calcium channel blockers.

Calcium channel blockers are among the most commonly used agents in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. There are several known side-effects associated with their long-term use, whereas other potential adverse effects are yet to be proven. This study aims to evaluate the association between calcium channel blockers exposure and the incidence of second primary malignancy.

Use of Hypolipidemic Drugs and the Risk of Second Primary Malignancy in Colorectal Cancer Patients.

An increasing number of studies has brought evidence of the protective role of statin use against different types of cancer. However, data on their association with second primary malignancies (SPMs) are lacking. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of hypolipidemic treatment in the prevention of second primary cancer in colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors.

Cancer incidence trends in the Czech Republic.

Background: Evaluation of time trends is an integral part of a comprehensive analysis of cancer data. Our study aimed to assess trends in cancer incidence in the period 1977-2018 in the Czech Republic.

Methods: Cancer data were obtained from the Czech National Cancer Registry.

Development of the Czech Childhood Cancer Information System: Data Analysis and Interactive Visualization.

Background: The knowledge of cancer burden in the population, its time trends, and the possibility of international comparison is an important starting point for cancer programs. A reliable interactive tool describing cancer epidemiology in children and adolescents has been nonexistent in the Czech Republic until recently.

Objective: The goal of this study is to develop a new web portal entitled the Czech Childhood Cancer Information System (CCCIS), which would provide information on childhood cancer epidemiology in the Czech Republic.

Significant current epidemiological trend: Haematological malignancies as subsequent primary tumours in cancer patients.

Background: Numbers of patients who develop subsequent primary tumours have markedly increased recently. This study aimed to carry out a comprehensive analysis documenting the risk of incidence of subsequent haematological malignancies.

Methods: The Czech National Cancer Registry was the main data source, containing records of 126,822 haematological malignancies diagnosed in the period 1977-2016.

The Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on the Second Primary Malignancies in Colorectal Cancer Patients.

Introduction: All colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors have an increased risk of developing second primary malignancies (SPMs). The association between diabetes mellitus (DM) and the risk of cancer is well known. However, the role of DM and its therapy in the development of SPMs in CRC patients is not well described.

Second primary malignancies in colorectal cancer patients.

The prevalence of second primary malignancies (SPMs) in the western world is continually increasing with the risk of a new primary cancer in patients with previously diagnosed carcinoma at about 20%. The aim of this retrospective analysis is to identify SPMs in colorectal cancer patients in a single-institution cohort, describe the most frequent SPMs in colorectal cancer patients, and discover the time period to occurrence of second primary tumors. We identified 1174 patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer in the period 2003-2013, with follow-up till 31.
