The comparison of long-term oncological outcomes and complications after proximal gastrectomy with double tract reconstruction versus total gastrectomy for proximal gastric cancer.

Background: Conventional methods for treating patients with proximal gastric cancer (PGC) include proximal gastrectomy (PG) and total gastrectomy (TG) and such methods have become challenging due to double tract reconstruction (DTR). However, the clinical outcomes remain unclear. This study was performed with the aim of verifying that PG-DTR was beneficial in terms of reducing the incidence of postoperative complications and improving the prognosis.

CircRNA RNF10 inhibits tumorigenicity by targeting miR-942-5p/GOLIM4 axis in breast cancer.

We aimed to explore the action of a circRNA produced by ring finger protein 10 (circ_RNF10; hsa_circ_0028899) in the malignant behaviors of breast cancer (BC) and to explore its potential action-of-mechanism. The levels of circ_RNF10, miR-942-5p and Golgi integral membrane protein 4 (GOLIM4) were measured through quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blot, or immunohistochemistry, and the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) relationship among them was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Cell counting kit-8, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine, and colony formation assays, transwell assays, and flow cytometry were used to examine cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and apoptosis, respectively.

Clinicopathology and Survival in Patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux After Radical Surgery of Proximal Gastric Cancer.

Background: Gastroesophageal reflux (GR) after radical resection of proximal gastric cancer (PGC) may influence survival; however, few studies have investigated survival in PGC patients who develop GR following radical resection. This study aimed to correlate the occurrence of GR after proximal gastrectomy (PG) and total gastrectomy (TG) with clinicopathological factors and long-term survival.

Methods: The PGC patient cohort was retrospectively grouped as follows: postoperative patients with and without GR (NGR).
