The installment of 4-step diagnostic system led to an improvement of the final diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. The average time during which pancreatic cancer proceeds from the onset of symptoms to computed tomography or laparotomy shortened considerably due to the application of the system screening procedures as well as of modern imaging techniques.

Background: Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins (SIGLECs) are widely expressed on immune cell surfaces, play an important role in maintaining immune homeostasis and regulating inflammatory responses, and are increasingly emerging as potential targets for tumor immunotherapy. However, the expression profile and crucial role of SIGLEC11 in gastric cancer (GC) remain unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the prognostic relevance of SIGLEC11 expression and its role in the immune microenvironment in patients with GC.
