Background and aims: Pancreatic cancer (PC) incidence is increasing at a greater rate in young women compared to men. We performed race- ethnicity-specific evaluation of trends subgroups stratified by age sex investigate the association race ethnicity with these trends. Methods: Age-adjusted PC rates (IR) from years 2000 2018 were obtained SEER 21 database. Non-Hispanic White (White), Black (Black) Hispanic patients included. Age categories included older (ages ≥ 55) younger < adults....
CRC accounts for approximately a tenth of all cancer cases and deaths in the US. Due to large differences demographics among different states, we aim determine trends epidemiology across age groups, genders. rates, age-adjusted standard US population, were obtained from GBD 2019 database. Time estimated as annual percentage change (APC). A pairwise comparison was conducted between age- gender-specific using tests parallelism coincidence. Age-specific also assessed two subgroups: younger...
(1) Background: While prior data showed an increasing incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in young adults, the contribution adenocarcinoma (ADC) and neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) to this trend is not well studied. Therefore, we conducted a comparative analysis rates time trends ADC NETs adults (aged 24–54) using United States Cancer Statistics (USCS) database. (2) Methods: Age-adjusted CRC between 2001 2020 were calculated categorized by sex, histopathology, stage at diagnosis. Annual...
In previous studies, a significant increase in the incidence of pancreatic cancer among younger women compared to men United States was noted. However, specific histopathologic characteristics were not delineated. This population-based study aimed assess whether this disproportionate rise contributed by ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) or neuroendocrine tumors (PanNET). The Cancer Statistics (USCS) database used identify patients with between 2001 and 2018. results showed that, adults, PDAC has...
This observational study reports on a comprehensive nationwide evaluation of rising gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumor incidence in the US from 2001 to 2020.
ABSTRACT Rectal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare neoplasms that usually asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally. There limited data on the presentation management of high‐grade poorly differentiated large friable rectal NETs. We report first case an 87‐year‐old male who presented with chronic diarrhea subsequently had severe hematochezia complicated by hemorrhagic shock cardiac arrest was a 7‐cm NET. Our sheds light need to consider NETs in cases importance endoscopy‐guided biopsy...
Introduction: Although the global incidence of non-cardia gastric cancer (NCGC) is decreasing, there are limited data on sex-specific in United States. This study aimed to investigate time trends NCGC from SEER database externally validate findings a SEER-independent national database, and further assess among subpopulations. Methods: Age-adjusted rates were obtained 2000 2018. We used joinpoint models calculate average annual percentage change (AAPC) determine older (≥55 years) younger...
Prior non-comparative data showed increasing incidence of rectal neuroendocrine tumors (RNET) in the US. We aimed to evaluate age-specific RNET rates and time-trends demographic- tumor-specific populations. The age-adjusted were calculated from United States Cancer Statistics (USCS) database between 2001 2020. population was stratified by age into older (≥55 years) younger adults (<55 years), as well sex race. categorized their stage at diagnosis early late. annual percentage change (APC)...
Abstract Hypertriglyceridemia‐induced acute pancreatitis (HTG‐AP) is the third most common cause of AP after gallstones and alcohol. Supportive measures, intravenous insulin, plasmapheresis are possible treatment modalities for HTG‐AP; however, definitive guidelines evaluating best therapeutic approach not clearly established. We present a rare case 42‐year‐old male without known comorbidities who was found to have HTG‐AP. Despite early initiation insulin initial decline in his triglycerides...
Colorectal cancer remains the second leading cause of cancer-related death in US. As early-onset colorectal (EO-CRC) becomes more prevalent US, research attention has shifted towards identifying at-risk populations. Previous studies have highlighted rising rate adenocarcinoma (ADC) and neuroendocrine tumors (NET) However, data on geographical variations EO-CRC are scarce. Hence, our study aims to analyze time trends incidence rates across various US regions assess these by sex...
While prior data showed an increasing incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the United States, there are limited comprehensive and comparative on geographical variations HCC trends different demographic-specific populations.
Abstract Background and Aim Celiac disease (CD) was shown to be associated with increased risk of developing acute pancreatitis (AP). There is a paucity literature critically analyzing the association CD AP outcomes. We aimed evaluate impact on outcomes complications in recent years. Methods A population‐based analysis performed using National Inpatient Sample (NIS) between 2016 2019. Multivariable logistic regression conducted identify independent while controlling for demographics...
There is an observed variation in the burden of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) across different US populations. Our study aims to comprehensively assess variations HCC incidence and mortality rates regions US. Understanding these geographical differences crucial, given prior evidence indicating viral hepatitis metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease varying access curative treatment among states.
Severe rectal bleeding is a rare complication of chronic radiation proctitis (CRP). Given CRP's propensity to involve the full thickness tissue, we proposed that endoscopic full-thickness resection may be successful therapeutic modality for treating CRP. A 76-year-old man with multiple comorbid conditions who was not surgical candidate presented severe secondary CRP refractory all medical and interventions. An performed, which initially resulted in hemostasis, but patient ultimately...
