| Description: |
Liver fat accumulation has been associated with impaired colorectal cancer prognosis. Associations may differ for colon and rectal cancer due to different disease mechanisms and dissemination patterns. Here, we investigated associations between liver fat and cancer recurrence, recurrence-free survival (RFS), and overall survival (OS) among 1596 individuals with stage I-III colon or rectal cancer. |
