Background: Colorectal polyps are commonly observed in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) and pose a significant clinical concern because of their potential for malignancy.

Aim: To explore the clinical characteristics of colorectal polyps in patients with CLD, a nomogram was established to predict the presence of adenomatous polyps (AP).

Methods: Patients with CLD who underwent colonoscopy at Tianjin Second People's Hospital from January 2020 to May 2023 were evaluated.

Background: Fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) is a widely used first step for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. Abnormal FIT results require a colonoscopy for screening completion and CRC diagnosis, but the rate of timely colonoscopy is low, especially among patients in safety-net settings. Multi-level factors at the clinic- and patient-levels influence colonoscopy completion after an abnormal FIT.

Background: This study investigates the effectiveness of a three-dimensional reconstruction mathematical model (3D-IPR) for preoperative planning in locally advanced colon cancer (LACC) with threatened surgical margins. The objective was to evaluate the utility of a 3D-IPR surgical planner tool in cases of LACC with threatened surgical margins. Additionally, the study aims to compare the diagnostic accuracy of the 3D-IPR model against conventional CT scans in determining the infiltration of neighboring structures.
