TL;DR: HCC related mortality is increasing, with typical patients being elderly with metabolic risk factors, but older patients with co-morbidities can do well, managed, within a specialist multidisciplinary team if their cancer is detected pre-symptomatically.

TL;DR: An objective measure of cardiorespiratory reserve was an independent predictor of a major surgical group with increased postoperative complications and hospital LOS, and AT measurement significantly improved outcome prediction compared with an algorithm-based activity assessment.

TL;DR: Chemotherapy before resection of colorectal liver metastases is associated with an increased risk of regimen-specific liver injury, which may have implications for the functional reserve of the liver for patients undergoing major hepatectomy for coloreCTal Liver metastases.

TL;DR: Cardiorespiratory fitness is an independent predictor of mortality and length of hospital stay and provides significantly more accurate prognostic information than age alone, and Clinicians should consider both the prognostic value of cardiore Spiratory testing and techniques to preserve cardioryspiratory function before elective surgery in older people.

TL;DR: To examine the benefits and harms of routine ureteric stenting to prevent urological complications in kidney transplant recipients, seven RCTs of low or moderate quality were identified and the incidence of MUCs was significantly reduced.
