Your input is needed on a review comparing two surgical approaches for treating liver cancer spread from colorectal cancer.
Skills / interests: Patient and public input
Would you be interested in helping us with this research article focused on two different surgical approaches to liver surgery for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver?
I am looking for a patient or member of the public who would be willing to peer review this Cochrane systematic review “Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy procedure versus conventional two-stage hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastasis.”
When we say ‘patients and the public’, we mean patients and potential patients, carers, people who use health and social care services, and people or organizations that represent these groups.
We are particularly interested in whether the language of the review—especially the language used in the Plain Language Summary (PLS)—is clear, easy to understand, and feels relevant for people experiencing colorectal cancer with liver spread, so that it will be helpful to patients and members of the public when making healthcare decisions.
We welcome feedback on any aspect of the review, with particular focus on the PLS section. Our aim is for this to be a manageable task and not to overburden our reviewers.
If you are interested in providing peer review, please include your e-mail address in your response. This will allow us to confirm your enrolment in our editorial management system (called Editorial Manager) and ensure that you can receive the review assignment.
Thank you in advance for your consideration!
