TL;DR: Overall, incidence appeared to be on the rise worldwide and peak incidence occurred in the second to fourth decade of life, although a modest rise was also seen in later life, and no consistent difference was seen between the sexes.
Abstract: developing countries. It has been proposed that this is the result of improved hygiene and sanitation, which have led to reduced exposure to enteric infections and immaturity of the immune system. In a recent systematic review of population based studies, incidence varied from 0.6 to more than 20 people per 100 000 person years in Europe and North America, compared with 0.1 to 6.3 per 100 000 person years in Asia and the Middle East. Overall, incidence appeared to be on the rise worldwide. Peak incidence occurred in the second to fourth decade of life, although a modest rise was also seen in later life. Prevalence was estimated at 5-500 people per 100 000 worldwide. No consistent difference was seen between the sexes. Smoking protects against developing ulcerative colitis. Risk is eight times higher in first degree relatives of people with the disorder compared with first degree relatives of healthy controls, although this is not completely explained by known genetic risk factors.

TL;DR: Laroscopic-assisted surgery for cancer of the colon is as effective as open surgery in the short term and is likely to produce similar long-term outcomes, however, impaired short- term outcomes after laparosc-assisted anterior resection forcancer of the rectum do not yet justify its routine use.

TL;DR: This revised IPSS-R comprehensively integrated the numerous known clinical features into a method analyzing MDS patient prognosis more precisely than the initial IPSS and should prove beneficial for predicting the clinical outcomes of untreated MDS patients and aiding design and analysis of clinical trials in this disease.
