Objective: To investigate the clinical significance of fecal Syndecan-2 (SDC2) gene methylation combined with blood tumor abnormal protein (TAP) detection for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) and its precancerous lesions.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted to collect patients diagnosed with CRC or colorectal adenoma (Ade) from March 2020 to March 2023, and healthy people (Nor) without any gastrointestinal diseases during the same period as the control group. All participants underwent the fecal SDC2 gene methylation test, blood TAP test and fecal occult blood test (FOBT).

The incidence of blast injuries has been rising globally, particularly affecting the lungs due to their vulnerability. Primary blast lung injury (PBLI) is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, while early diagnostic methods are limited. With advancements in medical technology, and portable handheld ultrasound devices, the efficacy of ultrasound in detecting occult lung injuries early remains unclear.

Purpose: Two randomized clinical trials (STOMP and ORIOLE) demonstrated that stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) can prolong ADT-free survival or progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with metachronous oligometastatic prostate cancer (omCSPC) patients. While most omCSPC patients have a more modest delay in progression, a small subset achieves a durable response following SABR. We investigated the prognostic and predictive value of circulating PSMA-positive extracellular vesicles (PSMA+EV) and prostate specific antigen (PSA) in a biomarker correlative study using blood samples from three independent patient cohorts.

Background And Objective: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has the third highest incidence in the Philippines. Currently, there is a paucity in literature that is focused on the knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of Filipinos regarding CRC screening. This is the first study in the Philippines that describes this.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Colorectal cancer (CRC) claims 900,000 lives per year. Colonoscopy offers reliable detection, but with low patient adherence rates. To significantly reduce CRC incidence and mortality, a more convenient screening measure for advanced precancerous lesions (APL) and CRC is urgently needed.
