This study investigates the impact of infantile colic on subsequent development. Infants with a history of colic scored significantly lower on the Mental and Psychomotor scales of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development at age 6 months but there was no significant effect of colic on test performance at later ages. The data suggest that this temporary delay in development may be due in part to less favorable patterns of caregiver-infant interaction as a result of the history of colic.

Background: Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (FGIDs) can pose a great burden on affected children, their families, and the healthcare system. Due to the lack of knowledge about the precise pathophysiology of FGIDs, a proper identification of children at risk to develop FGIDs has never been attempted. The research aims to identify early-life risk factors for FGIDs such as infantile colic, regurgitation, and functional constipation, within the first year of life.

Rectal cancer is universally considered a different disease entity as compared to colon cancer, except when dealing with colorectal peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC), in which the two cancers are deemed as the same one. The present study aims to investigate the influence of primary tumor location (colon vs. rectum) on oncologic outcomes in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for colorectal peritoneal metastases.
