Aim: To explore hereditability of gastric cancer in Wuwei city.
Methods: A case-control study was used to investigate 251 gastric cancer families located in Wuwei city. Li-Mantel-Gan and Falconer regression methods were used to calculate segregation ratios and hereditability.
Results: The segregation ratio in Wuwei families was 0.0774, the hereditability of class I kinfolks and class II kinfolks were respectively 22.91% and 20.07%.
Conclusion: The segregation ratio of gastric cancer in Wuwei was significantly lower than for mono-genetic diseases (0.25), corresponding better with a model of polygenetic diseases. The genetic susceptibility factor accounted for about 1/5-1/4 in the formation of gastric cancer familial aggregation.

Purpose Of Review: This review addresses the current treatment paradigm and new advancements in the management of microsatellite instability-high/mismatch repair deficient (MSI-H/dMMR) esophagogastric cancer (EGC).
Recent Findings: While chemotherapy and surgery remain the cornerstone of EGC treatment, MSI-H/dMMR tumors harbor high tumor mutational burden and represent a subset of patients who benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). ICI has been incorporated in the front line setting with and without chemotherapy for advanced disease.

This study aimed to explore the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of using KangDuo-Surgical Robot-01 (KD-SR-01) for distal gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer. We prospectively enrolled patients undergoing KD-SR-01 assisted distal gastrectomy at our center from September 2023 to December 2023. Data on baseline characteristics, perioperative details, and short-term follow-up were collected prospectively.

Gastric cancer (GC), a prevalent malignancy worldwide, encompasses a multitude of biological processes in its progression. Recently, ferroptosis, a novel mode of cell demise, has become a focal point in cancer research. The microenvironment of gastric cancer is composed of diverse cell populations, yet the specific gene expression profiles and their association with ferroptosis are not well understood.
