  1. Values are expressed as n (%) unless otherwise specified
  2. ASA American Society of Anesthesiologists, BMI body mass index, CEA Carcinoembryonic antigen, ES emergency surgery, MSI microsatellite instability, SEMS self-expendable metal stent
  3. Value is median (IQR, interquartile range)
  4. P value calculated using Student’s t test and Wilcoxon rank sum test for continuous variables or chi-square test and Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables
  5. a,b,c,dP value was a comparison of emergency surgery and the time interval groups with < 11 days, 11–17 days, and > 17 days, respectively
  6. *, **, ***P value was a comparison of the time interval groups with < 11 days and 11–17 days, 11–17 days, and > 17 days, and < 11 days and > 17 days, respectively. Those were compared using Tukey’s test after rank transformation and Fisher’s exact test with the Bonferroni method
