Background And Objective: It is reported that the incidence of colorectal cancer is higher in patients receiving cholecystectomy (CHE) than in those who did not. However, the correlation of CHE and cholecystolithiasis (CHO) to colorectal cancer is unclear. This study was to investigate the correlation of CHE or CHO to risk of colorectal cancer in Chinese population.
Methods: A meta-analysis was conducted according to the guidelines set forth by the meta-analysis of observational studies in epidemiology (MOOSE statement). A manual and computer search of literature was performed. Included literatures were evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Original data were extracted, pooled odd ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (Cl) were calculated using revman 5.0.
Results: In total 26 studies were included. The pooled OR between CHO or CHE, CHE alone, CHO alone and colorectal cancer were 3.00 (95%IC 2.30-3.91), 2.85 (95%IC 2.13-3.81) and 2.68 (95%IC 1.93-3.72), respectively. Sub-group analysis in sex and position of tumors revealed obvious correlation of CHE or CHO to colorectal cancer except for the men's subgroup.
Conclusion: CHE or CHO may be associated with colorectal cancer in Chinese population.

Background: People living with HIV(PLWH) are a high-risk population for cancer. We conducted a pioneering study on the gut microbiota of PLWH with various types of cancer, revealing key microbiota.
Methods: We collected stool samples from 54 PLWH who have cancer (PLWH-C), including Kaposi's sarcoma (KS, n=7), lymphoma (L, n=22), lung cancer (LC, n=12), and colorectal cancer (CRC, n=13), 55 PLWH who do not have cancer (PLWH-NC), and 49 people living without HIV (Ctrl).

Objective: The retrieval of 12 lymph nodes (LNs) remains a crucial criterion for accurate staging and prognosis evaluation in rectal cancer (RC). However, some patients fail to meet this threshold after surgery. This study developed a nomogram model based on clinical variables to predict the probability of retrieving 12 LNs postoperatively.

Background: Tumor deposit (TD) is an independent risk factor associated with recurrence or metastasis for patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). The scenario in which both TD and lymph node metastasis (LNM) are positive is not clearly illustrated by the current TNM staging system. Simply treating one TD as one or two LNMs by a weighting factor is inappropriate.

Introduction: Metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) exhibits significant heterogeneity in molecular profiles, influencing treatment response and patient outcomes. Mutations in v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1 () and rat sarcoma () family genes are commonly observed in mCRC. Though originally thought to be mutually exclusive, recent data have shown that patients may present with concomitant and mutations, posing unique challenges and implications for clinical management.

Introduction: We identified potential approaches to address barriers to colorectal cancer (CRC) screening in rural communities of award recipients from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Colorectal Cancer Control Program (CRCCP).
Methods: Nine program managers and directors discussed approaches to address barriers to CRC screening. The programs served areas with rural communities and tribal reservations.
