Colorectal cancer remains a significant health threat, with its incidence continuously rising, underscoring the urgent need for the development of new therapeutic agents. In our previous research, we identified 7A, a derivative of Neratinib, as having pronounced antitumor activity. However, its specific effects and mechanisms in colorectal cancer have not been thoroughly investigated.

This study investigates the relationship between sarcopenia and TOO, explores its long-term prognostic value, and develops a prognostic model incorporating sarcopenia and TOO for survival prediction.
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of clinical and pathological data from patients with LAGC who underwent radical surgery at two Chinese tertiary referral hospitals.
Objective: Textbook outcome (TO) is widely recognized as a comprehensive prognostic indication for patients with gastric cancer (GC). This study aims to develop a modified TO (mTO) for elderly patients with GC.
Methods: Data from the elderly patients (aged ≥ 65 years) in two Chinese tertiary referral hospitals were analyzed.
Objective: Precancerous metaplasia transition to dysplasia poses a risk for subsequent intestinal-type gastric adenocarcinoma. However, the molecular basis underlying the transformation from metaplastic to cancerous cells remains poorly understood.
Design: An integrated analysis of genes associated with metaplasia, dysplasia was conducted, verified and characterised in the gastric tissues of patients by single-cell RNA sequencing and immunostaining.
Background: Adjuvant chemotherapy following curative surgery for locally advanced gastric cancer (AGC) significantly improves long-term patient prognosis. However, delayed chemotherapy (DC), in which patients are unable to receive timely treatment, is a common phenomenon in clinical practice for various reasons. This study aimed to investigate the impact of DC on the prognosis of patients with stage II-III locally AGC and explore the associated risk factors.

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are indispensable for cancer development; however, the regulation of cancer stem cell-like properties in gastric cancer (GC) and its specific mechanism remain poorly understood. We elucidate the specific role of Circ-0075305 in GC stem cell properties.

Designing and developing dual-dynamic-bond cross-linked COL adhesive hydrogel sealants with multifunctional is highly advantageous for achieving a superior wound closure effect and hemostasis. In this study, we developed hybrid hydrogels consisting of fish-skin COL, oxidized sodium alginate (OSA), borax and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to enhance full-thickness wound healing.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Robotic gastrectomy is a safe and feasible approach for gastric cancer (GC); however, its long-term oncological efficacy remains unclear. The authors evaluated the long-term survival outcomes and recurrence patterns of patients with locally advanced proximal GC who underwent robotic total gastrectomy (RTG).
Methods: This prospective study (FUGES-014 study) enrolled 48 patients with locally advanced proximal GC who underwent RTG between March 2018 and February 2020 at a tertiary referral teaching hospital.
Background: Textbook outcome (TO) has been widely employed as a comprehensive indicator to assess the short-term prognosis of patients with cancer. Preoperative malnutrition is a potential risk factor for adverse surgical outcomes in patients with gastric cancer (GC). This study aimed to compare the TO between robotic-assisted gastrectomy (RAG) and laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) in malnourished patients with GC.

Materials And Methods: This observational study included patients who underwent LSG with SO (99 patients) or without SO (146 patients) from a single center.
Background: Surgical quality control is a crucial determinant of evaluating the tumor efficacy.
Objective: To assess the ClassIntra grade for quality control and oncological outcomes of robotic radical surgery for gastric cancer (GC).
Methods: Data of patients undergoing robotic radical surgery for GC at a high-volume center were retrospectively analyzed.
has the characteristics of developed root system, nitrogen fixation and soil improvement, fast growth and high yield, and improvement of soil fertility. It is often used as a windbreak tree species in rubber plantations, a highway shade tree, for coastal and mountain restoration in Hainan . In October 2021, a stem rot disease with an incidence of 3% was found in Baisha city(19°22'18″N,109°16'58″E), Hainan Province, China.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy (LG) is rapidly gaining popularity owing to its minimal invasiveness. Previous studies have found that compared with two-dimensional (2D)-LG, three-dimensional (3D)-LG showed better short-term outcomes. However, the long-term oncological outcomes in patients with locally resectable gastric cancer (GC) remain controversial.

This species is most similar to (Wheeler, 1928) due to a spineless propodeum, the absence of horns, and a smooth head capsule. It is distinguished by the following features: (1) antenna 10-segmented; (2) katepisternum rugose-reticulate; (3) in major workers, lateral sides of head in full-face view parallel; (4) metanotal groove distinct, anterodorsal corner forming an acute tooth behind metanotal groove.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIndocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging-guided lymphadenectomy has been demonstrated to be effective in increasing the number of lymph nodes (LNs) retrieved in laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC). Previously, we reported the primary outcomes and short-term secondary outcomes of a phase 3, open-label, randomized clinical trial (NCT03050879) investigating the use of ICG for image-guided lymphadenectomy in patients with potentially resectable GC. Patients were randomly (1:1 ratio) assigned to either the ICG or non-ICG group.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFObjective: Totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG) and laparoscopic-assisted total gastrectomy (LATG) are two types of minimally invasive radical gastrectomy procedures to treat gastric cancer (GC). This study compared the long-term prognosis and postoperative health-related quality of life (HRQoL) between TLTG and LATG.
Methods: A total of 106 patients who underwent TLTG and 1,076 patients who underwent LATG at the Union Hospital of Fujian Medical University (Fuzhou, China) between January 2014 and April 2018 were included in the propensity score matching (PSM, 1:2).
Objective: To verify an intraoperative adverse event (iAE) classification (ClassIntra grade) to evaluate quality control and to predict the prognostic performance of laparoscopic radical surgery for gastric cancer.
Background: Surgical quality control is a key factor in the evaluation of surgical treatment for tumors. And, there is no recognized iAE classification for gastric cancer.
Background: The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) has been reported to be correlated with long-term outcomes after gastrointestinal tumor surgery. However, to our knowledge, only a few studies have shown that the PNI is related to cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, we aimed to assess the association between the PNI and long-term outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Previous evidences have been proved that age, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and ejection fraction are tightly associated with the long-term outcomes in patients suffered from coronary artery disease (CAD). Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the prognosis value of age, NT-proBNP, and ejection fraction (ABEF) score in CAD patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: Observational cohort methodology was used in this study which enrolled totally 3561 patients.
Purpose: To develop and validate a simple metabolic score (Metabolic score, MS) for use in evaluating the prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) patients and dynamically monitor for early recurrence.
Methods: We retrospectively collected general clinicopathological data of patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for GC between September 2012 and December 2017 in the Department of Gastric Surgery of the Fujian Medical University Union Hospital. Using a random forest algorithm to screen preoperative blood indicators into the Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model, we developed a novel MS to predict prognosis.
