Background: Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignancy globally. Early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) is becoming a growing healthcare focus globally, particularly in North America. We estimated trends in incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for EOCRC in Canada between 1990 and 2019.

Methods: We used the Global Burden of Diseases Study to evaluate trends in incidence, mortality, and DALYs for EOCRC in Canada between 1990 and 2019. Rates were estimated per 100,000 persons at risk with associated uncertainty intervals (UIs). Annual percentage changes (APC) were estimated using joinpoint regression with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Results: In 2019, the incidence, mortality, and DALYs rates for EOCRC were 10.89 (95% UI 8.09, 14.34), 2.24 (95% UI 2.00, 2.51), and 111.37 (95% UI 99.34, 124.78) per 100,000 individuals, respectively. Incidence increased during the study period by 1.12%/year (95% CI 1.03%, 1.22%; < 0.001). The largest increase in incidence in EOCRC occurred between 1990 and 2007, with an APC of 2.23% (95% CI 2.09%, 2.37%; < 0.001). Mortality (APC 2.95%, 95% CI 1.89%, 4.02%; < 0.001) and DALY (APC 2.96%, 95% CI 1.84%, 4.09%; < 0.001) rates increased for males between 2001 and 2006.

Conclusions: Our study reveals a substantial burden in EOCRC in Canada, with a significant increase in incidence.

Background: Distinctive heterogeneity characterizes diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), one of the most frequent types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Mitochondria have been demonstrated to be closely involved in tumorigenesis and progression, particularly in DLBCL.

Objective: The purposes of this study were to identify the prognostic mitochondria-related genes (MRGs) in DLBCL, and to develop a risk model based on MRGs and machine learning algorithms.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic caused social and economic damages, increased mortality rates, and psychological damages such as fear, stress, anxiety, and depression. Therefore, the present study aimed to explore the perceptions and experiences of COVID-19 survivors diagnosed with anxiety and depression, along with one of their family members in Ahvaz.

Materials And Methods: A qualitative study was conducted on 50 COVID-19 survivors and their family members using an in-depth interview and a purposive sampling method in 2022.

Background: Despite recommendations, exercise participation among endometrial cancer survivors remains low. Previous interventions focused on weight loss or in-person programs with limited reach. Regular exercise, regardless of weight change, reduces mortality risk and improves functionality.

Chronic diseases have emerged as a paramount global health burden, accounting for 74% of global mortality and causing substantial economic losses. The oral cavity serves as a critical indicator of overall health and is inextricably linked to chronic disorders. Neglecting oral health can exacerbate localized pathologies and accelerate the progression of chronic conditions, whereas effective management has the potential to reduce their incidence and mortality.

Background: Rebleeding after recovery from esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) is a severe complication that is associated with high rates of both incidence and mortality. Despite its clinical importance, recognized prognostic models that can effectively predict esophagogastric variceal rebleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis are lacking.

Aim: To construct and externally validate a reliable prognostic model for predicting the occurrence of esophagogastric variceal rebleeding.
