Likelihood of receipt of: (1) cancer-directed surgery, (2) chemotherapy in surgical patients, (3) chemotherapy in non-surgical patients by age, adjusting for sex, area deprivation, cancer stage, comorbidity and period of diagnosis, was examined. Results Age-related inequalities in treatment exist...
Introduction Non-pharmacotherapy based interventions (NPTs) and Viscum album extracts (VA) are integral part of integrative oncology (IO) and support conventional cancer therapies to meet patients' needs and reduce chemotherapy induced side effects. NPTs are introduced in IO to activate patients' reso...

we calculated indirectly standardised rates of emergency admissions for the most deprived patients in the 90 days following their colon cancer diagnosis. We applied the sex, age and comorbidity distribution of patients in the least deprived group, stratified by stage at diagnosis, to patients...
We included 10,392 patients aged 50–74 and 6562 patients aged 75–84 years old diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer (ICD-10 code: C18) in England between 2014 and 2017 from the COloRECTal cancer Repository (CORECT-R). The CORECT-R is a national population-based resource that provides ...

Delayed chemotherapy was associated with worse survival outcomes (hazard ratio (HR): 1.75 (1.29, 2.37) for overall survival; HR: 4.23 (2.19, 8.20) for cancer-specific survival). Conclusion: Although the benefit of chemotherapy is unclear in stage II colon cancer patients,...
Cases of stage pT4b sigmoid colon cancer were screened in the SEER database by SEER‐Stat software (SEER*Stat 8.3.8). Cases of sigmoid colon cancer were retrieved based on the International Classification of Diseases for Oncology (ICD-O-3) code; namely, “Site recode ICD-O-3/WHO 2008" ...

We did not observe any statistically significant interactions between the 8q24 genotypes and known colon and colorectal cancer risk factors, and risk did not differ by tumor site or tumor stage. The results of our meta-analysis strongly support the association between the rs6983267 variant, and ...
