Background: The prognosis of young colorectal cancer (CRC) patients has been addressed by several studies but with contradictory results. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the clinico-pathological features of young Saudi patients with CRC in addition to displaying their survival outcome. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, young CRC patients (${\leq}40$ years) diagnosed between 2007 and 2011 from 4 centres in western Saudi Arabia, were included. Clinico-pathological features, tumor markers, dates of disease relapse and death were collected. Survival parameters were compared with those of older Saudi patients, reported in previous studies. Results: One hundred and sixteen young patients with CRC were identified (32.2% rectal, 67.8% colon). Some 44% were metastatic while 32.7% had stage III at diagnosis. Patients with grade 3 tumors made up 29.4% of the total while 49.5% had positive lymphovascular invasion (LVI), 56% had a lymph node (LN) ratio ${\geq}0.2$ and 40.2% were K-ras mutant. Median disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in non-metastatic cases were 22.8 and 49.6 months respectively with better median DFS in K-ras wild compared to mutant patients (28.5 vs 20.9 months, p=0.005). In metastatic cases, median OS was 19.5 months. These survival outcomes are inferior compared to those of older Saudi patients reported in prior studies. Conclusions: Young CRC patients present more commonly with advanced stage and a high incidence of adverse prognostic factors such as LVI and high LN ratio. Young CRC patients seem to have worse survival compared to older Saudi patients.

<P>A highly selective and sensitive electrochemical method was developed for the detection of dopamine (DA), based on a gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-coated taro carbon (TC)-modified glassy carbon electrode (AuNP-TC/GCE). This novel AuNP-TC material was simply prepared by carrying out a pyrolysis of a composite material obtained by treatment of an acid-treated taro stem powder with HAuCl4. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were employed to characterize the AuNP-TC material. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) were used to characterize the modified electrode. The modified GCE exhibited a well-defined current response only toward the electrochemical oxidation of DA in a mixture solution of ascorbic acid (AA), DA, and uric acid (UA). This designed electrochemical sensor showed a linear response in the concentration range of 0.5 μM to 250 μM DA and a sensing limit (S/N = 3) of 0.25 μM was found. The sensor was also able to successfully detect DA in a dopamine hydrochloride injection (DAI). Moreover, the sensor exhibited excellent stability and reproducibility.</P>
