    Title translation Results of a single center vascular screening program in Germany.
    Abstract Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of death in Europe with a relevant socioeconomic burden. A screening program for vascular diseases in asymptomatic persons with a defined risk constellation can lead to an early diagnosis.
    Objective: The study examined a screening program for carotid stenosis, peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) and abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) in persons without any known vascular disease with respect to demographic data, risk factors, pre-existing conditions, medication intake, detection of pathological findings and/or findings requiring treatment.
    Material and methods: Test subjects were invited using various information material and filled in a questionnaire on cardiovascular risk factors. The screening took place with measurement of the ABI and duplex sonography as a monocentric prospective single arm study within 1 year. Endpoints were the prevalence of risk factors and pathological and/or results requiring treatment.
    Results: A total of 391 persons participated, 36% presented with at least 1 cardiovascular risk factor, 35.5% with 2 and 14.4% with 3 or more. The sonography showed results requiring control with a carotid stenosis of < 50-> 75% or occlusion in 9%. An AAA with a diameter of 3.0-4.5 cm was diagnosed in 0.9% and a pathological ABI < 0.9 or > 1.3 in 12.3%. The indications for a pharmacotherapy were found in 17% and no operation was recommended.
    Conclusion: The practicability of a screening program for carotid stenosis, PAOD and AAA of a defined risk population was shown. Vascular pathologies that required treatment were hardly found in the catchment area of the hospital. Consequently, the implementation of this screening program in Germany based on the collected data cannot currently be recommended in this form.

  8. Article: Is it feasible and ethical to randomize patients between surgery and non-surgical treatments for gastrointestinal cancers?

    Abstract Background: In several settings in the treatment of gastrointestinal cancers, it is unclear if the addition of surgery to a multimodal treatment strategy, or in some circumstances its omission, lead to a better outcome for patients. In such situations of clinical equipoise, high-quality evidence from randomised-controlled trials is needed to decide which treatment approach is preferable.
    Objective: In this article, we outline the importance of randomised trials comparing surgery with non-surgical therapies for specific scenarios in the treatment of gastrointestinal cancers. We explain the difficulties and solutions of designing these trials and recruiting patients in this context.
    Methods: We performed a selective review based on a not systematic literature search in core databases, supplemented by browsing health information journals and citation searching. Only articles in English were selected. Based on this search, we discuss the results and methodological characteristics of several trials which randomised patients with gastrointestinal cancers between surgery and non-surgical treatments, highlighting their differences, advantages, and limitations.
    Results and conclusions: Innovative and effective cancer treatment requires randomised trials, also comparing surgery and non-surgical treatments for defined scenarios in the treatment of gastrointestinal malignancies. Nevertheless, potential obstacles to designing and carrying out these trials must be recognised ahead of time to avoid problems before or during the trial.

    Abstract Background: A hallmark of gastrointestinal cancer, especially pancreatic cancer, is the dense stromal tumor microenvironment in which cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) represent the major stromal cell type. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that depletion of fibroblast activation protein (FAP)-positive CAFs results in increased survival.
    Objective: We present the protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis that aim to assess the currently available evidence on the effect of FAP expression on survival and clinical characteristics in gastrointestinal cancers.
    Methods: The literature search and data analysis will be conducted in accordance with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) 2020 statement. The databases PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science Core Collection, Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov will be searched via their respective online search engines. A meta-analysis comparing patients with and without FAP overexpression with the following outcomes will be performed: postoperative survival (overall and median survival; 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates), histological differentiation (grading), local tumor invasion, lymph node metastases, and distant metastases. Odds ratios will be calculated for binary data, and weighted mean differences and relative SD differences will be determined for continuous data. The 95% CI, heterogeneity measures, and statistical significance will be reported for each outcome. The chi-square and Kruskal-Wallis tests will be used to evaluate statistical significance. A P value of <.05 will be considered statistically significant.
    Results: Database searches will commence in April 2023. The meta-analysis will be completed by December 2023.
    Conclusions: In recent years, several publications on FAP overexpression in gastrointestinal tumors have been published. The only published meta-analysis on this topic dates to 2015. It included 15 studies on various solid tumors and only 8 studies focusing exclusively on gastrointestinal tumors. The expected results of the present analysis will provide new evidence on the prognostic value of FAP in gastrointestinal tumors and thereby support health care professionals and patients in their decision-making.
