- The study examined how the size of the resected stomach after laparoscopic pylorus-preserving gastrectomy affects delayed gastric emptying (DGE) and food residue one year post-surgery.
- Patients were divided into two groups: those with DGE symptoms and a control group without, showing that the DGE group was older and had smaller stomach sections.
- Findings suggest that larger resections of the greater curvature might help reduce DGE, indicating a need for improved surgical strategies and further research to confirm the results.
Background/aim: This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of modified geriatric nutritional risk index (mGNRI) in patients with unresectable/recurrent esophageal cancer (EC).
Patients And Methods: We included 143 patients aged >65 years with unresectable/recurrent EC. The mGNRI was calculated as (1.

Ramucirumab (RAM) has been proven effective against unresectable or recurrent gastric cancer. However, its administration is often discontinued because of adverse events, including hypertension and proteinuria.
