TL;DR: This work seeks to design a systematic approach for LD mapping and applies it to the localization of a gene (IBD5) conferring susceptibility to Crohn disease, and binds the region to a common haplotype that shows strong association with the disease and contains the cytokine gene cluster.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomewide search in Canadian families with inflammatory bowel disease reveals two novel susceptibility loci.

Greenberg,Zane Cohen,Eric S. Lander,Thomas J. Hudson,Thomas J. Hudson,Katherine A. Siminovitch +17 more
TL;DR: A genomewide scan in 158 Canadian sib-pair families identified three regions of suggestive linkage and one region of significant linkage to 19p13 that contributes to CD susceptibility in families with early-onset disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of hemorrhoidal treatment modalities. A meta-analysis.
TL;DR: Although hemorrhoidectomy showed better response rates, it is associated with more complications and pain than rubber band ligation, thus should be reserved for patients who fail to respond to rubber bandLigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic Accuracy of MRI for Assessment of T-category, Lymph Node Metastases, and Circumferential Resection Margin Involvement in Patients with Rectal Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Eisar Al-Sukhni,Laurent Milot,Laurent Milot,Mark Fruitman,Joseph Beyene,JC Victor,Selina Schmocker,Gina Brown,Robin S. McLeod,Robin S. McLeod,Erin D. Kennedy,Erin D. Kennedy +11 more
TL;DR: MRI has good accuracy for both CRM and T category and should be considered for preoperative rectal cancer staging and in contrast, lymph node assessment is poor on MRI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Follow-up of patients with curatively resected colorectal cancer: a practice guideline
Alvaro Figueredo,R. Bryan Rumble,Jean A. Maroun,Craig C. Earle,Bernard Cummings,Robin S. McLeod,Lisa Zuraw,Caroline Zwaal +7 more
TL;DR: Follow-up programs for patients with curatively resected colorectal cancer do improve survival, and it is not clear which tests or frequency of visits is optimal, however, there is a suggestion that improved survival is due to diagnosis of recurrence at an earlier, asymptomatic stage which allows for more curative resection of Recurrence.
