“…In recent years, the quality of life of patients with CRC during chemotherapy has attracted much attention. Different from the traditional biomedical models, modern medical models do not take tumor elimination as the only goal, and their evaluation of survival rate of cancer patients is more systematic, especially paying attention to the quality of life of patients after surgery and chemotherapy[ 30 ]. The concept of quality of life is extremely complex, including physical, psychological, social function, mental state, etc.…”

BACKGROUND Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is the most common concomitant symptom in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC). Such patients often present with subjective fatigue state accompanied by cognitive dysfunction, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. AIM To explore the effects of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) combined with Baduanjin exercise on CRF, cognitive impairment, and quality of life in patients with CRC after chemotherapy, and to provide a theoretical basis and practical reference for rehabilitation of CRC after chemotherapy. METHODS Fifty-five patients with CRC after radical resection and chemotherapy were randomly divided into either an experimental or a control group. The experimental group received the intervention of CBT combined with exercise intervention for 6 mo, and indicators were observed and measured at baseline, 3 mo, and 6 mo to evaluate the intervention effect. RESULTS Compared with the baseline values, in the experimental group 3 mo after intervention, cognitive function, quality of life score, and P300 amplitude and latency changes were significantly better ( P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, at 3 mo, the experimental group had significant differences in CRF, P300 amplitude, and quality of life score ( P < 0.05), as well as significant differences in P300 latency and cognitive function ( P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, at 6 mo, CRF, P300 amplitude, P300 latency, cognitive function and quality of life score were further improved in the experimental group, with significant differences ( P < 0.01). The total score of CRF and the scores of each dimension were negatively correlated with quality of life ( P < 0.05), while the total score of cognitive impairment and the scores of each dimension were positively correlated with quality of life ( P < 0.05). CONCLUSION CBT combined with body-building Baduanjin exercise can improve CRF and cognitive impairment in CRC patients after chemotherapy, and improve their quality of life.

“…Despite their widespread use, many validated cancer QoL measures are an overarching measure that may not fully account for the impact of CRC diagnosis and its treatment [41]. Delineating the decrease in QoL due to LARS and cancer itself represents an ongoing challenge for upcoming research.…”

AimPhysiotherapy is an established treatment strategy for low anterior resection syndrome (LARS). However, data on its efficacy are limited. This is in part due to the inherent challenges in study design in this context. This systematic review aims to analyse the methodology of studies using pelvic floor physiotherapy for treatment of LARS to elucidate the challenges and limitations faced, which may inform the design of future prospective trials.MethodologyA systematic review of the literature was undertaken through MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Library, yielding 345 unique records for screening. Five studies were identified for review. Content thematic analysis of study limitations was carried out using the Braun and Clarke method. Line‐by‐line coding was used to organize implicit and explicit challenges and limitations under broad organizing categories.ResultsKey challenges fell into five overarching categories: patient‐related issues, cancer‐related issues, adequate symptomatic control, intervention‐related issues and measurement of outcomes. Adherence, attrition and randomization contributed to potential bias within these studies, with imbalance in the baseline patient characteristics, particularly gender and baseline pelvic floor function scores. Outcome measurements consisted of patient‐reported measures and quality of life measures, where significant improvements in bowel function according to patient‐reported outcome measures were not reflected in the quality of life scores.ConclusionUpcoming trial design in the area of pelvic floor physiotherapy for faecal incontinence related to rectal cancer surgery can be cognisant of and design around the challenges identified in this systematic review, including the reduction of bias, exclusion of the placebo effect and the potential cultural differences in attitude towards a sensitive intervention.

“…The CRC is the third leading cause of cancer in Shenzhen, and the incidence rate continued to rise from 2001 to 2018. 9 However, the investigation of populations at higher risk for CRC in Southern China is limited by the lack of extensive epidemiological studies. Geographical environment and dietary habits have an impact on the detection rate of the high-risk groups for CRC in various regions.…”

Aim The rising incidence and death rate of colorectal cancer (CRC) have posed a severe danger to the lives and health of residents. Individuals at high risk of CRC are drawing growing attention as the majority of the population impacted by CRC. Hence, it is imperative to examine the detection rates and modifiable factors affecting the populations at high risk for CRC in Shenzhen. Methods The multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was used to select residents aged 45–74 years old from September 2020 to December 2021. The community-based CRC screening was attended by a total of 30,921 residents from urban and suburb regions. The association between modifiable risk factors and the detection rate of high-risk groups was analyzed using multinomial logistic regression with the inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) based on the propensity score. Results The cross-sectional analysis included 24,613 people after excluding 6308 people who had missing or invalid fecal occult blood test (FOBT) results. The detection rate for high-risk groups during CRC screening was 28.50%. Higher rate of high-risk groups was detected among those who were male, aged 60 or above, college or above, other marital status, and living in urban ( P < 0.05). Demographic characteristics after IPTW showed a weak correlation coefficient with the detection rate of CRC high-risk both in high-risk and general-risk groups (SMD < 0.1), suggesting a balanced group of participants. The results of logistic regression with IPTW indicated that smoking, drinking, obesity, lack of exercise, vegetable or fruit eating infrequently, red meat, processed meat, cereal food and their clustering status were more inclined to be risk indicators of CRC ( P < 0.05). Conclusion The detection rate for high-risk CRC groups was comparatively high in Shenzhen. The distribution characteristics of lifestyle and dietary risk factors of high-risk groups should be given consideration when adopting individualized intervention measures and comprehensive prevention and control strategies.
