While oncological emergencies in colorectal cancer present distinct challenges, existing literature offers conflicting evidence regarding long-term outcomes. Therefore, the present study compared the postoperative prognoses between patients with and without oncological emergencies. A retrospective evaluation was conducted on patients who had undergone radical surgery for pathological stages II and III colorectal cancer at a single center between January 2012 and December 2020. Patients were classified into the non-emergency and oncological emergency groups. The status of oncologic emergency was divided into obstruction and perforation. The outcomes were compared using propensity score matching. The primary objective was to compare the postoperative prognoses between non-emergency and oncological emergency situations. The secondary objectives included comparing prognoses between obstruction and perforation, identifying the type of recurrence depending on the status of oncologic emergency, and assessing the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy for oncologic emergencies. This study included 524 patients. After propensity score matching, the prognoses of oncological emergencies were worse compared with those without any emergency, whereas those of obstruction and perforation did not significantly differ. Regarding the type of recurrence, peritoneal dissemination in obstruction and local recurrence in perforation was more common compared with that in non-emergency cases. Adjuvant chemotherapy improved the recurrence-free survival for cases with oncological emergencies. The prognoses in cases with oncological emergencies could be worse compared with those without any emergency, whereas obstruction and perforation outcomes can be comparable. The administration of adjuvant chemotherapy should be strongly considered for oncological emergencies.

The management of peri-operative pain is one of the pillars of anaesthesia and is of particular importance in patients undergoing surgery for solid malignant tumours. Amongst several options, the most commonly employed analgesic regimens involve opioids, NSAIDs and regional anaesthesia techniques with different local anaesthetics. In recent years, several research reports have tried to establish a connection between peri-operative anaesthesia care and outcome after cancer surgery.

Background: Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) comprise a family of heterogeneous entities, primarily characterised by chronic scarring of the lung parenchyma. Among ILDs, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common idiopathic interstitial pneumonitis, associated with progressive functional decline leading to respiratory failure, a high symptom burden, and mortality. Notably, the incidence of lung cancer (LC) in patients already affected by ILDs-mainly IPF-is significantly higher than in the general population.

Objective: To characterize early physiologic stresses imposed by surgery by applying metabolomic analyses to deeply phenotype pre- and postoperative plasma and urine of patients undergoing elective surgical procedures.

Background: Patients experience perioperative stress through depletion of metabolic fuels. Bowel stasis or injury might allow more microbiome-derived uremic toxins to enter the blood, while the liver and kidney are simultaneously clearing analgesic and anesthetic drugs.
