Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most relevant diseases worldwide because of its incidence, prevalence and mortalitye. It is the third most common tumor in men, after lung and prostate cancer, and the second most common tumor in women, after breast cancer. A recent systematic analysis showed global data referring to age-standardized incidence rates for CRC, which increased by 9.5% from 1990 to 2017, whereas mortality rates decreased by 13.5%. This might be due to the introduction of CRC prevention programs, which facilitate early identification and higher survival chances.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has high incidence and mortality rates, with severe prognoses during invasion and metastasis stages. Despite advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic technologies, the impact of the tumour microenvironment, particularly extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness, on CRC progression and metastasis is not fully understood.
Methods: This study included 107 CRC patients.

Background: The risk of developing advanced neoplasia (AN; colorectal cancer and/or high-grade dysplasia) in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients with a low-grade dysplasia (LGD) lesion is variable and difficult to predict. This is a major challenge for effective clinical management.
Objective: We aimed to provide accurate AN risk stratification in UC patients with LGD.
