Core Tip

Core Tip: This letter underscores the prognostic relevance of nutritional and inflammatory markers in colorectal cancer, while highlighting the gap between clinical evidence and patient education. Bridging this gap requires robust and prospective research along with the development of accessible, evidence-based resources for patients. Translating these insights into practical guidance is of utmost importance to improve outcomes and support informed patient care.
