Objective: To investigate the risk factors for the prognosis in patients with gastric cancer undergoing surgery.
Methods: Clinical data of 1031 cases who underwent gastric cancer resection from January 2003 to December 2007 were studied using univariable analysis and multivariable regression analysis.
Results: In 1031 cases,95 (9.2%) cases were early-stage gastric cancer. The other 936 (90.8%) cases were advanced gastric cancer. The tumor was resectable in 980 (95.1%) cases, of which 874 (84.8%) were curative resection,106 (10.3%) were palliative, and 51 (4.9%) were bypass procedures or laparotomy alone. The stage-specific 5-year survival rates were 93.2% (stage IA), 65.1%(stage IB), 52.3% (stage II), 41.4% (stage IIIA), 16.6% (stage IIIB) and 10.6% (stage IV), respectively. The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 80.2%, 58.0% and 48.2%, respectively. The independent risk factors associated with the prognosis of these patients were tumor size, serum albumin, curative resection, TNM staging and multidisciplinary treatment in both univariable and multivariable analyses.
Conclusions: Early curative resection is the most important treatment for the patients with gastric cancer. Individualized surgical procedure combined with multidisciplinary treatment can improve the outcome. Tumor size, serum albumin level and TNM staging are important predictors of survival in patients with gastric cancer.

Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) encompass a diverse set of malignancies with limited precision therapy options. Recently, therapies targeting DLL3 have shown clinical efficacy in aggressive NENs, including small cell lung cancers and neuroendocrine prostate cancers. Given the continued development and expansion of DLL3-targeted therapies, we sought to characterize the expression of DLL3 and identify its clinical and molecular correlates across diverse neuroendocrine and non-neuroendocrine cancers.

Objective: This study aimed to clarify whether nutritional status at admission affects enteral nutrition weaning 6 months after surgery in patients with esophageal cancer.
Methods: This was a retrospective study of 81 patients who underwent subtotal esophageal cancer resection between April 2014 and February 2016. The survey items were as follows: 1) sex, 2) age, 3) presence or absence of family members living together, 4) clinical stage, 5) surgical procedure, 6) reconstructed organs, 7) nutritional status at admission, 8) presence or absence of postoperative complications (anastomotic leakage, chylothorax, and recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis), and 9) presence or absence of treatment other than surgery (chemo- or radiotherapy).

Background: Helicobacter pylori bacteria colonize the gastric mucosa and contribute to the occurrence and development of gastrointestinal diseases. According to the WHO, H. pylori bacteria are considered class I carcinogen.

The Warburg effect, a common feature of solid tumors, rewires the metabolism and promotes growth, survival, proliferation, and long-term maintenance in gastric cancer (GC). We performed in vitro and in vivo studies of the pathogenesis of GC to investigate the effects and mechanism of LINC01224 in this cancer. qRT-PCR was used to measure the expression of LINC01224 or miR-486-5p in GC cells, and the expression of LINC01224 in GC tissues by FISH (Fluorescence in situ hybridization) analysis was evaluated.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) ranks as the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with most patients diagnosed at advanced stages due to the absence of reliable early detection biomarkers.
Methods: RNA-sequencing was conducted to identify the differentially expressed genes between GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues. CCK8, EdU, colony formation, transwell, flow cytometry and xenograft assays were adopted to explore the biological function of ZBTB10 and betulinic acid (BA) in GC progression.
