Short-term outcomes of preoperative computed tomography angiography versus standard assessment in patients with BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m undergoing laparoscopic gastrectomy: the GISSG20-01 randomized clinical trial.

Background: Laparoscopic gastrectomy lacks hand-direct tactile sense and has a limited surgical field compared to laparotomy. Apart from textbook classification, there are anatomical variations in the gastric arteries. Laparoscopic gastrectomy presents technical difficulties and necessitates a more comprehensive comprehension of regional anatomy than open surgical procedures.

Effect of preoperative CT angiography examination on the clinical outcome of patients with BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m undergoing laparoscopic gastrectomy: study protocol for a multicentre randomized controlled trial.

Background: Gastric cancer, which is the fifth most common malignancy and the third most common cause of cancer-related death, is particularly predominant in East Asian countries, such as China, Japan and Korea. It is a serious global health issue that causes a heavy financial burden for the government and family. To our knowledge, there are few reports of multicentre randomized controlled trials on the utilization of CT angiography (CTA) for patients who are histologically diagnosed with gastric cancer before surgery.

LncRNA LINC00473 promoted colorectal cancer cell proliferation and invasion by targeting miR-195 expression.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play crucial roles in cancer development. However, the role of LINC00473 in colorectal cancer has not been explored. In our study, we showed that LINC00473 expression was upregulated in colorectal cancer samples compared to nontumor samples.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing the Short-term Outcomes of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery and Conventional Care in Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy (GISSG1901).

Objective: This study aimed to compare the effects of ERAS and conventional programs on short-term outcomes after LDG.

Summary Of Background Data: Currently, the ERAS program is broadly applied in surgical areas. Although several benefits of LDG with the ERAS program have been covered, high-level evidence is still limited, specifically in advanced gastric cancer.

Effects of perioperative enhanced recovery after surgery pathway management versus traditional management on the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic-assisted radical resection of distal gastric cancer: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

Background: The incidence of gastric cancer in East Asia is much higher than the international average. Therefore, improving the prognosis of patients and establishing effective clinical pathways are important topics for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer. At present, the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathway is widely used in the field of gastric surgery.

Prognostic Factors for Primary Localized Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors After Radical Resection: Shandong Gastrointestinal Surgery Study Group, Study 1201.

Background: Most previous risk-prediction models for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) were based on Western populations. In the current study, we collected data from 23 hospitals in Shandong Province, China, and used the data to examine prognostic factors in Chinese patients and establish a new recurrence-free survival (RFS) prediction model.

Methods: Records were analyzed for 5285 GIST patients.

[Analysis of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors in Shandong Province: a midterm report of multicenter GISSG1201 study].

Objective: To summarize the treatment status of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in Shandong province,by analyzing the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors.

Methods: Clinicopathological and follow-up data of 1 165 patients with gastric GIST between January 2000 and December 2013 from 23 tertiary referral hospitals in Shandong Province were collected to establish a database. The risk stratification of all cases was performed according to the National Institutes of Health(NIH) criteria proposed in 2008.

Genetic Basis of Gastric Cancer.

Gastric cancer is the result of multiple risk factors, including environmental factors, genetic factors and the interaction between them. The environmental factors mainly include dietary, Helicobacter pylori infection and family history of gastric cancer. Genetic factors mainly refer to the susceptible genes that cause epigenetic alterations in oncogenes, tumor suppress genes, cell cycle regulators, DNA repair genes and signaling molecules.

[Study of splenopancreatic-preserving dissection of No.10 and No.11 lymphatic nodes in radical resection for proximal gastric carcinoma].

Objective: To investigate the feasibility of splenopancreatic-preserving dissection of No.10 and No.11 lymph nodes in radical resection for proximal gastric carcinoma.

Diagnosis and treatment of penetrating anorectal wounds.

Objective: To research the diagnosis and effective treatment of penetrating anorectal wounds.

Methods: Retrospective analysis was done in 16 cases of penetrating anorectal wounds from 1985 to 2004. Debridement and suture of anorectal and vesical wounds, effective diversion of fecal and urinary stream and sufficient presacral drainage were performed in all cases.
