In principle, many authors advocate a radical surgical approach for early gastric cancer (gastrectomy on principle). Our own experience with subtotal gastrectomy (including N1 + N2 lymphadenectomy; limited resection even without groups 11, 12) shows that this method yields comparable results. With an operative mortality of 2%, the survival rate was 84.3% after 5 years and 70.5% after 10 years, instead of the predicted values of 82.8% and 63.4%, respectively. Applied to the same age group without gastric carcinoma, this yields a 5-year survival rate of 101.8% and thus almost reaches Japanese standards.

The impact of educational intervention based on the theory of planned behavior on preventive behaviors for gastric cancer in obese and smoking individuals.

Background: Gastric cancer remains a significant global health issue due to its aggressive nature and high heterogeneity, making early detection and prevention critical. Obesity and smoking are established risk factors that significantly contribute to the development of gastric cancer. Despite the clear links between these risk factors and the disease, there is a lack of targeted educational interventions that address these behaviors.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the predictive value of baseline CT body composition and its early changes on recurrence-free survival (RFS) following radical gastrectomy, while also assessing potential sex-related differences.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of gastric cancer (GC) patients with confirmed pathology from October 2019 to May 2023. All patients underwent preoperative and postoperative CT scans to assess visceral fat area (VFA), subcutaneous fat area (SFA), skeletal muscle area (SMA), and skeletal muscle density (SMD), along with calculating their respective rates of change.

Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, accounting for nearly 800,000 fatalities annually. ITGAX (Integrin alpha X) is closely associated with immune cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells. Its involvement in gastric cancer was identified through an analysis of The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, which highlighted as one of four key gastric cancer-related genes.

Objective: Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignant tumor of the digestive tract. Accumulating studies suggest that inflammation is linked with the pathogenesis of GC. The study delves into novel hematological inflammatory markers, such as systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI), to explore their potential applications in early diagnosis of GC.
