    Abstract: Background: This study aims to evaluate the clinicopathological significance and prognostic implications of intratumoral budding (ITB) in colorectal cancers (CRCs) through a meta-analysis. Methods: We performed the meta-analysis using 13 eligible studies and investigated the rates of CRCs with high ITB. The correlation between ITB and clinicopathological characteristics, including disease-free survival, was evaluated. Results: The estimated rate of CRCs with high ITB was 0.233 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.177–0.299) in overall CRCs. High ITB was significantly correlated with tumor grade, lymphatic invasion, perineural invasion, pT stage, and lymph node metastasis. In addition, ITBs were more frequently found in medullary and signet-ring cell carcinomas than in conventional adenocarcinomas and mucinous carcinomas. However, the high ITB rate was not correlated with tumor border, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, or microsatellite instability. CRCs with a good response after neoadjuvant therapy revealed a lower rate of high ITB than those with a poor response (hazard ratio (HR) 0.114, 95% CI 0.070–0.179 vs. 0.321, 95% CI 0.204–0.467). In addition, CRCs with high ITB had a worse disease-free survival than those with low ITB (HR 1.426, 95% CI 1.092–1.863). Conclusions: The ITB was significantly correlated with aggressive tumor behaviors and a worse prognosis in CRCs. The detection of ITB, as a histological parameter, can be useful for predicting clinicopathologic features and the prognosis of CRC.

    Abstract: Background and objectives: Long-term exposure to air pollution has been associated with lung cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the relative risk (RR) and hazard ratio (HR) of lung cancers and the prognostic implication of outdoor particulate matter (PM) pollution using a meta-analysis. Materials and Methods: We performed the meta-analysis using 19 eligible studies and evaluated the PMs, dividing into PM smaller than 2.5 µm (PM2.5) and PM smaller than 10 µm (PM10). In addition, subgroup analyses, based on the increment of PM exposure, location, sex, smoking history, and tumor histology, were performed. Results: Lung cancer was significantly increased by exposure to PM2.5 (RR 1.172, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.002–1.371), but not PM10 exposure. However, there was no significant correlation between PM10 exposure and the incidence of lung cancers (RR 1.062, 95% CI 0.932–1.210). The all-cause and lung-cancer-specific mortalities were significantly increased by PM2.5 exposure (HR 1.1.43, 95% CI 1.011–1.291 and HR 1.144, 95% CI 1.002–1.307, respectively). However, PM10 exposure significantly increased the all-cause mortality, but not the lung-cancer-specific mortality. The lung-cancer-specific mortality was significantly increased by PM10 per 12.1 μg/m3 increment and in the Europe area. Conclusions: PM2.5 significantly increased lung cancer and the all-cause and lung-cancer-specific mortalities, whereas PM10 did not increase lung cancer or lung-cancer-specific mortality. However, PM10 increased the all-cause mortality and the PM10 per 12.1 μg/m3 increment and PM10 in the Europe area may increase the lung-cancer-specific mortality.

    Abstract: Background and Objectives: The present study aimed to elucidate the distribution and the prognostic implications of tumor–stroma ratio (TSR) in various malignant tumors through a meta-analysis. Materials and Methods: This meta-analysis included 51 eligible studies with information for overall survival (OS) or disease-free survival (DFS), according to TSR. In addition, subgroup analysis was performed based on criteria for high TSR. Results: The estimated rate of high TSR was 0.605 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.565–0.644) in overall malignant tumors. The rates of high TSR ranged from 0.276 to 0.865. The highest rate of high TSR was found in endometrial cancer (0.865, 95% CI 0.827–0.895). The estimated high TSR rates of colorectal, esophageal, and stomach cancers were 0.622, 0.529, and 0.448, respectively. In overall cases, patients with high TSR had better OS and DFS than those with low TSR (hazard ratio (HR) 0.631, 95% CI 0.542–0.734, and HR 0.564, 95% CI 0.0.476–0.669, respectively). Significant correlations with OS were found in the breast, cervical, colorectal, esophagus, head and neck, ovary, stomach, and urinary tract cancers. In addition, there were significant correlations of DFS in breast, cervical, colorectal, esophageal, larynx, lung, and stomach cancers. In endometrial cancers, high TSR was significantly correlated with worse OS and DFS. Conclusions: The rate of high TSR was different in various malignant tumors. TSR can be useful for predicting prognosis through a routine microscopic examination of malignant tumors.
