The aim of this study was to assess the role of immunocyte-derived ratios (IDRs), such as the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), as markers for the postoperative recovery of gastrointestinal function following colorectal cancer surgery. A retrospective analysis was conducted on a consecutive cohort of 260 patients who underwent radical colorectal cancer surgery within the timeframe spanning from January 2016 to December 2022. Data concerning the postoperative recovery of gastrointestinal function included the I-FEED score, time to pass flatus, toleration for liquids in the first 48 h, and the need for nasogastric tube reinsertion in the immediate postoperative period. A special emphasis was allocated towards the examination of IDRs and their interrelation with the postoperative gastrointestinal functional parameters. The I-FEED score exhibited a positive correlation with the NLR, SII, and PLR. The univariate analysis indicated that all IDRs, multiorgan resection, hemoglobin and protein levels, regional nodal extent of the tumor (N), and obesity significantly affected nasogastric tube reinsertion. The multivariate analysis showed that the SII and N1 stages were risk factors for nasogastric tube reinsertion after colorectal cancer surgery. The SII and multiorgan resection were the only classifiers that remained significant in the multivariable analysis for the toleration for liquids. In summation, certain preoperative IDRs, such as the SII, PLR, and NLR, may hold potential as predictive determinants for postoperative gastrointestinal functional recovery following colorectal cancer surgery.

Background: In recent years, the association between systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and the prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) has remained a topic of considerable debate. To address this, the present study was carried out to investigate the prognostic significance of SII in CRC.
Methods: Databases including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and Web of Science were scrutinized up to March 27, 2024.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most prevalent malignancy and the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with an increasing shift towards younger age of onset. In recent years, there has been increasing recognition of the significance of tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), encompassing tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) and tRNA halves (tiRNAs). Their involvement in regulating translation, gene expression, reverse transcription, and epigenetics has gradually come to light.

In contemporary times, cancer poses the most significant threat to human life and safety. Scientists have relentlessly pursued the intricacies of carcinogenesis and explored ways to prevent and treat cancer. Carcinogenesis is a complex, multi-faceted, and multi-stage process, with numerous underlying causes, including inflammation and fibrosis.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) exhibits a high incidence globally, with the liver being the most common site of distant metastasis. At the time of diagnosis, 20-30% of CRC patients already present with liver metastases. Colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) is a major cause of mortality among CRC patients.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent malignancy worldwide, associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) plays a crucial role in cell cycle regulation and has been implicated in various cancers. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of CDK1 in CRC and to identify traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) that can target CDK1 as potential treatments for CRC.
