We have experienced three gastric cancer cases successfully treated by the combination therapy of CDDP and TS-1. Case 1: 65-year-old man, a type 4 gastric cancer with huge abdominal para-aortic lymphnodes. Case 2: 74-year-old woman, a type 3 gastric cancer was found with obstructive jaundice. Swelling lymph nodes were seen in the hepatoduodenal ligament. Case 3: 58-year-old woman, a type 4 gastric cancer was found. The tumor invading the pancreas and swelling lymphnodes around the stomach were confirmed according to abdominal CT. Although combined chemotherapy of TS-1 plus CDDP is effective for advanced gastric cancer,adjuvant-chemotherapy must be investigated in noneffective cases.

Background: Intestinal-type gastric cancer (IGC) and diffuse-type gastric cancer (DGC) exhibit different prevalence rates between sexes. While environmental factors like Helicobacter pylori infection and alcohol consumption contribute to these differences, they do not fully account for them, suggesting a role for host genetic factors.
Methods: We conducted a meta-analysis to explore associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the risk of IGC or DGC.

Objectives: To develop a nomogram based on the radiomics features of tumour and perigastric adipose tissue adjacent to the tumor in dual-layer spectral detector computed tomography (DLCT) for lymph node metastasis (LNM) prediction in gastric cancer (GC).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 175 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. They were divided into training cohort (n = 125) and validation cohort (n = 50).

is a Gram-negative bacterium and human pathogen that is linked to various gastric diseases, including peptic ulcer disease, chronic gastritis, and gastric cancer. The filament of the flagellum is surrounded by a membranous sheath that is contiguous with the outer membrane. Proteomic analysis of isolated sheathed flagella from B128 identified the lipoprotein HP0135 as a potential component of the flagellar sheath.

The scorpion Karsch is edible and has been an essential resource in traditional Chinese medicine for treating numerous diseases. In this study, two small peptides from hydrolysates were examined to elucidate their potential against gastric cancer. The small peptides (AK and GK) were identified using the LC-QTOF-MS-based approach.

With the widespread use of lidocaine for pain control in cancer therapy, its antitumor activity has attracted considerable attention in recent years. This paper provides a simple strategy of combining lidocaine with chemotherapy drugs for cancer therapy, aiming to relieve chemotherapy-induced pain and achieve stronger antitumor efficacy. However, there is still a lack of substantial pre-clinical evidence for the efficacy and related mechanisms of such combinations, obstructing their potential clinical application.
