Background: Esophageal cancer is a major public health issue, yet risk factors for its occurrence are still insufficiently known. This study aimed to estimate the global burden of esophageal cancer and its risk factors.
Methods: This ecological study presented the incidence, mortality, and Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) of esophageal cancer in the world.

Background: The effect of maternal smoking around birth (MSAB) on gastrointestinal (GI) diseases in the offspring is still not fully understood.
Aim: We conducted a rigorous Mendelian randomization (MR) study to examine the association between MSAB and 24 GI diseases in offspring.
Methods: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with MSAB were obtained from a recent study.

Numerous risk factors for oesophageal cancer are linked to lifestyle habits, but the role of early-life factors in its incidence and mortality is unclear. Using UK Biobank data, we explore the association among breastfeeding, maternal smoking, smoking in offspring, and oesophageal cancer risk in adult offspring via multivariable Cox regression. Here, we show that being breastfed, compared with not being breastfed, is associated with a lower risk of oesophageal cancer incidence (HR: 0.

Background: Esophageal cancer is an aggressive malignant tumor with poor prognosis, making early detection and treatment crucial. C-reactive protein-albumin-lymphocyte (CALLY) index is a comprehensive indicator which is involved in the process of metabolism, inflammation and immune reaction, and has been addressed to correlate with clinical outcomes in cancer patients. However, However, the evidence in esophageal cancer remains unclear.
