The purpose of the study was to determine the prognostic value of serum inflammatory markers as pretreatment in curatively resected colorectal cancer. The effects of serum inflammatory marker levels on postoperative morbidity were also examined. METHODS Prospectively collected data from 1590 patients with primary sporadic colorectal adenocarcinoma who underwent curative resection between September 2012 and December 2013 at our institution were retrospectively analyzed. White blood cell count (× 103/mcl), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and Glasgow prognostic score (GPS) were evaluated. GPS was determined as follows GPS of 2, elevated CRP level (> 1.0 mg/dl) and hypoalbuminemia ( 27 mm/h (P = 0.014), and a GPS of 1 or 2 (P  less then 0.001) were independent risk predictors for morbidity. A GPS of 1 or 2 (P  less then 0.001) and postoperative morbidity (P  less then 0.001) significantly affected both overall survival and disease-free survival in multivariate analyses. CONCLUSIONS A GPS of 1 or 2 is a significant risk factor for postoperative morbidity and a prognostic factor for long-term survival.The interaction between metal oxide nanoparticles and toxin-producing cyanobacteria is relatively unknown. The present work exposed Microcystis sp.7806 to different concentrations of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) (1 mg/L, 10 mg/L and 50 mg/L), and evaluated the growth, photosynthetic activity, reactive oxygen species level, and the extra-(intra-) cellular microcystin-LR (MC-LR) contents. The particle size, zeta potential and cerium ions released into the medium were analyzed. Results showed 10 mg/L NP treatment promoted algae growth but slightly inhibited the photosynthetic yield of algae, and the 50 mg/L treatment reduced a
