Soft tissue neoplasms, harboring fusions between EWSR1 and FUS with genes encoding CREB transcription factors family (ATF1, CREB1, and CREM), are an emerging heterogeneous group of mesenchymal tumors that differ significantly in morphology, immunophenotypes, and behavior. Recently, EWSR1/FUS::CREB fusions have been recognized to define a group of aggressive neoplasms of epithelioid morphology with multiple growth patterns and a striking predilection for mesothelial-lined cavities. These neoplasms presenting as a primary neoplasm of intra-abdominal visceral organs are rare, which could elicit a wide range of differential diagnoses because of their diverse morphologies and immunohistochemical profiles.

This study aims to explore temporal trends and predictors for inpatient PC referral in mGCa patients who received specific critical care therapies (CCT).
Methods: The National Inpatient Sample from 2003 to 2015 was used to identify mGCa patients receiving CCT.
Purpose: Lung cancer (LC) is a common malignancy worldwide. A great number of circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been identified that serve crucial roles in cancer development. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their contents have been shown to be biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of LC.

EREG expression promotes tumor progression and metastasis and reduces patient survival. However, the expression of EREG and its prognostic value are not clear in gastric cancer (GC).
