Urinary exosomal prostate-specific antigen is a noninvasive biomarker to detect prostate cancer: Not only old wine in new bottles

Chunmeng Wei et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the performance of urinary exosomal prostate-specific antigen (UE-PSA) in predicting the results of initial prostate biopsies and distinguishing clinically significant prostate cancer. The results showed that UE-PSA had high accuracy and clinical value in predicting and distinguishing prostate cancer, making it a promising noninvasive biomarker to improve prostate cancer detection.

Lymph Node Ratio Improves Prediction of Overall Survival in Esophageal Cancer Patients Receiving Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy: A National Cancer Database Analysis

Yajie Zhang et al.

Summary: The study proposed a revised ypN (r-ypN) classification based on lymph node ratio (LNR) and found that LNR showed better performance than ypN in predicting overall survival (OS) in postneoadjuvant esophageal cancer patients. This may suggest an improvement on the current staging system.

Prognostic value of log odds of positive lymph nodes, lymph node ratio, and N stage in patients with colorectal signet ring cell carcinoma: A retrospective cohort study

Xing Hu et al.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the predictive capacity of log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS), lymph node ratio (LNR), and pN stage in the prognosis of patients with colorectal signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC). The results showed that LODDS displayed a better predictive capacity than LNR and pN stage, indicating its potential effectiveness in predicting the prognosis of colorectal SRCC patients.

The new 'coN' staging system combining lymph node metastasis and tumour deposit provides a more accurate prognosis for TNM stage III colon cancer

Xitao Wang et al.

Summary: This study confirms the prognostic value of tumour deposit (TD) in stage III colon cancer and proposes a more accurate coN staging system integrating TD and lymph node metastasis (LNM) compared to the current N staging system. The study highlights the importance of considering not only the presence but also the number of TDs in predicting prognosis.

A proposed grading scheme for predicting recurrence in medullary thyroid cancer based on the Ki67 index and metastatic lymph node ratio

Pengfei Xu et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the usefulness of a new grading system combining the Ki67 index and LNR as a predictor of prognostic and disease-free survival in MTC patients. The results demonstrated that the proposed grading scheme showed better prognostic performance than the Ki67, LNR, and N staging alone in MTC patients.

Analysis of the risk factor of insufficient examined lymph nodes in stage II colon cancer from the perspective of stage migration: A retrospective study combined with external validation

Chao Zhang et al.

Summary: Insufficient examined lymph node (ELN) count is a high risk factor for recurrence in stage II colon cancer patients, with those with <15 ELNs having similar prognosis to stage IIIB patients. Subgroup analysis and external validation confirmed these findings.

Beyond N staging in colorectal cancer: Current approaches and future perspectives

Gianluca Arrichiello et al.

Summary: Traditionally, lymph node metastases evaluation is essential to the staging of colon cancer patients according to the TNM system. However, emerging pathological features, such as Lymph Node Ratio (LNR), Log Odds of Positive Lymph Nodes (LODDS), Tumor deposits (TD), and Extranodal extension (ENE), have been shown to have a significant impact on the prognosis of colorectal cancer patients. Implementing these features in the existing classification system has the potential to improve prognosis estimation and patient selection for adjuvant treatment.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Metastatic lymph node ratio as a better prognostic tool than the TNM system in colorectal cancer

Filipa Macedo et al.

Summary: The lymph node ratio (LNR) may be a better prognostic indicator than pN categories in colon cancer patients. Total number of dissected lymph nodes is significantly correlated with pN, but not with LNR.

Predictive and Prognostic Effects of Primary Tumor Size on Colorectal Cancer Survival

Olatunji B. Alese et al.

Summary: The study found that tumor size is closely related to prognosis in colorectal cancer patients, especially in stage III disease. Stage II patients who did not receive adjuvant chemotherapy had comparable survival outcomes to stage III patients who did, while Stage II patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy did much better than both groups.

Summary: The novel TLNR classification for colon cancer, which combines LNR and T stage, showed better prognostic discrimination, model-fitting ability, and net benefits compared to the AJCC 8th TNM classification in patients with operable stage I-III colon cancer. Further studies are needed to validate the novel TLNR classification.

Clinicopathological and Molecular Features of Patients with Early and Late Recurrence after Curative Surgery for Colorectal Cancer

Yuan-Tzu Lan et al.

Summary: Colorectal cancer patients with early recurrence display advanced pathological characteristics, worse survival rates, more APC mutations. Right-sided colon cancer patients are more likely to experience early recurrence. However, postrecurrence survival rates are not significantly different between early and late recurrence patients. Multivariate analysis identified early recurrence, old age, multiple-site recurrence, BRAF and NRAS mutations as independent prognostic factors.
