It is well-established that there are trillions of gut microbiota (GM) in the human gut. GM and its metabolites can reportedly cause cancer by causing abnormal immune responses. With the development of sequencing technology and the application of germ-free models in recent years, significant inroads have been achieved in research on GM and microbiota-related metabolites. Accordingly, the role and mechanism of GM in colorectal cancer (CRC) development have been gradually revealed. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) represents an important source of natural medicines and herbal products, with huge potential as anti-CRC agents. The potential application of TCM to target gut microbes for the treatment of colorectal cancer represents an exciting area of investigation.

Purpose: Patients with rare cancer often experience diagnostic delays and limited treatment options, potentially negatively impacting their working lives. We explored whether those with rare vs. common cancer have an increased risk of loss of contractual employment (1) up to 2 years pre-diagnosis, (2) up to 5 years post-diagnosis, and (3) which characteristics of rare cancer survivors are associated with loss of contractual employment 5 years post-diagnosis.

Identifying frequent users of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in the post-discharge period can potentially direct interventions to prevent deterioration at home. This study aimed to describe the frequency of post-discharge emergency phone calls within 30 days after common medical and surgical categories of hospital admission. A retrospective cohort study retrieved data from the electronic medical record and the EMS Capital Region Denmark database after approval by the Danish Health Data Authority.

In the preliminary screening, falcarinol and falcarindiol, C polyacetylenes from the roots of Glehnia littoralis F. Schmidt ex Miq (Umbelliferae), displayed cytotoxic activity both against oxaliplatin-sensitive/resistant colorectal cancer (CRC) and gefitinib-sensitive/resistant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. In this study, 13 polyacetylenes including a new (3R,11R)-11-hyroxy-isofalcarinolone (1) were isolated from G.

Unlabelled: In Chile, there is limited information regarding the effects on the quality of life of patients undergoing colorectal resective surgery. Although the GES guideline of management of Colorectal Cancer (2013) includes a quality-of-life survey, presented in a non-translated version to Spanish, without instructions regarding its application method, and recently validated (2023). On the other hand, post-surgical and oncological follow-ups focus on evaluating symptoms, signs, and complementary tests associated with recurrences, leaving the non-standardized evaluation of quality of life to the discretion of the healthcare provider.
