  • Oesophagogastric cancer surgery outcomes are generally poor, leading researchers to investigate the effectiveness of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in predicting postoperative results, especially after neoadjuvant treatments.
  • A study included 611 patients from seven UK centers, analyzing the relationship between peak oxygen uptake (VO peak) and one-year survival, finding no significant correlation, but noting that anaerobic threshold measures related to ideal body weight were predictive of three-year survival.

  • Understanding how these cells work together could help us learn more about how blood networks are formed in different parts of the body.
