Immunotherapy for gastrointestinal cancers has elicited considerable amount of attention as a viable therapeutic option for several cancer types. Gut microbiome as a whole plays a critical role in shaping immune responses and influencing cancer progression. Recent evidence suggests that (), may influence immunotherapy efficacy by modulating the tumor microenvironment.

Background: Ga-DOTA-FAPI-04 is a new positron imaging agent, and its application in bone metastasis has been limited. The purpose of this retrospective study was to compare the diagnostic ability of Ga-DOTA-FAPI-04 PET/CT and F-FDG PET/CT to detect bone metastases in patients with different types of cancer.
Methods: A total of 293 patients with pathologically confirmed primary malignancies were examined with Ga-DOTA-FAPI-04 PET/CT and F-FDG PET/CT within one week.

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers impose a significant disease burden, underscoring the critical importance of accurate prognosis prediction and treatment response evaluation. DNA methylation, one of the most extensively studied epigenetic modifications, has gained prominence due to its reliable measurement across various sample types. Numerous studies have reported that DNA methylation was linked to the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment response in malignancies, including GI cancers.

Background: Gastric teratoma is a rare neoplasm, particularly in neonates, and usually presents as a palpable abdominal mass. However, severe occult gastrointestinal bleeding is uncommon and often misdiagnosed. Imaging studies are crucial for the preoperative diagnosis of neonatal teratoma, but definitive diagnosis relies on pathological examination.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is considered a highly heterogeneous disease, and currently, a comprehensive approach encompassing molecular data from various biological levels is lacking.
Methods: This study conducted different analyses, including the identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), weighted correlation networks (WGCNA), single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), mRNA expression-based stemness index (mRNAsi), and multiCox analysis, utilizing data from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases. Subsequently, the machine learning algorithms including least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and random forest (RF), combined with multiCox analysis were exploited to identify hub genes.
