Methods: An invitation to participate in this survey was sent to the heads of 2689 facilities affiliated with the members of the Japanese Society for Infection Prevention and Control in February 2023, requesting responses to the online survey using Google Forms by March 2023.
Results: Six hundred and forty-five facilities, including 20 clinics and 625 hospitals, participated in the survey.
Introduction: Gastric cancer with fusion genes involving the Rho GTPase-activating protein domain (RhoGAP-GC) is mainly included in the genomically stable type of The Cancer Genome Atlas classification. Clinical implications and histological characteristics of RhoGAP-GC in the early phase remain unclear.
Methods: We analyzed 878 consecutive pT1b GCs for RhoGAP and its partner genes using fluorescence in situ hybridization assay.
Article Synopsis
- * In a study involving 39 IUP cases, researchers found that 87% had oncogenic mutations in RAS family genes, particularly HRAS, which was linked to smoking and specific morphological traits, while KRAS mutations were only found in non-smokers.
- * The study revealed no cases of recurrence or progression to cancer during follow-up, emphasizing the role of RAS mutations in IUP development and their relationship to different tumor subtypes and spread patterns.
