Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the changes in blood pressure in patients with concurrent gastric cancer and hypertension after gastrectomy, and to identify the factors that affect the changes in blood pressure.

Materials And Methods: Patients with concurrent gastric cancer and hypertension who underwent gastrectomy were retrospectively analyzed from January 2013 to December 2018. The pre- and 6-month postoperative medical records were compared. Predictors for the remission of hypertension were analyzed.

Results: A total of 143 patients with concurrent gastric cancer and hypertension were included in this study. The number of patients with complete remission, partial remission and no remission were 67 (46.9%), 12 (8.4%) and 64 (44.7%), respectively. The average of weight and BMI (body mass index) before gastrectomy were 63.0 ± 9.7 kg and 23.4 ± 2.9 kg/m, respectively, which were significantly higher than those 6-month postgastrectomy: 54.8 ± 9.8 kg and 20.4 ± 3.1 kg/m, respectively (p<0.001). The average number of antihypertensive medications before gastrectomy was 1.5 ± 0.6, while it was 0.8 ± 0.8 6-month postgastrectomy (p<0.001). Age (p<0.05) and the surgical techniques used (p<0.05) were significantly different between partial remission and no remission patients. Furthermore, age (p<0.05) and the surgical techniques used (p<0.05) were significantly different between complete remission and no remission patients. Age (p<0.05, odds ratio =0.933, 95% CI=0.890-0.978) and the surgical techniques used (p<0.05, odds ratio =2.749, 95% CI=1.132-6.677) are predictors for remission of hypertension.

Conclusion: Total gastrectomy is an onco-metabolic surgery that can cure younger patients with concurrent gastric cancer and hypertension. Age and the surgical techniques used can predict the remission of hypertension 6 months after gastrectomy.

Purpose: To assess and compare the diagnostic efficiency of histogram analysis of monochromatic and iodine images derived from spectral CT in predicting Ki-67 expression in gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (gGIST).

Methods: Sixty-five patients with gGIST who underwent spectral CT were divided into a low-level Ki-67 expression group (LEG, Ki-67 < 10%, n = 33) and a high-level Ki-67 expression group (HEG, Ki-67 ≥ 10%, n = 32). Conventional CT features were extracted and compared.

Trends and cross-country inequality in the incidence of GI cancers among the working-age population from 1990 to 2021: a Global Burden of Disease 2021 analysis.

Background: GI cancers pose an increasing global health burden, with their impact on the working-age population (WAP) aged 15-64 years remaining largely unexplored despite the crucial role of this group in societal and economic well-being.

Objective: To assess trends and cross-country inequality in the global burden of six GI cancers from 1990 to 2021 among individuals in the WAP.

Design: The 2021 Global Burden of Disease study dataset was used to obtain estimates of GI cancer incidence and 95% uncertainty intervals, including the number of cases, crude incidence rate and age-standardised incidence rate (ASIR).

Background/aim: The effect of left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD), a risk factor for postoperative mortality, in older adult patients with gastric cancer has not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of low preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) on short- and long-term outcomes in older adult patients with gastric cancer.

Patients And Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 237 older adult patients with gastric cancer (≥75 years old) who underwent preoperative echocardiography and curative gastrectomy.

Background/aim: Body weight loss (BWL) after gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC) decreases postoperative quality of life and survival in patients with GC. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of oral nutritional supplements composed of high protein on BWL in the early period following gastrectomy.

Patients And Methods: Pre- and postoperative body weight and skeletal muscle mass were measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for GC and analyzed retrospectively.

Background/aim: No prospective study has evaluated salvage chemotherapy with capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (XELOX) in patients with gastric cancer who are resistant to or intolerant of cisplatin.

Patients And Methods: This multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase II study was conducted at six centers in Japan, enrolling patients with metastatic or advanced gastric cancer resistant to or intolerant of fluoropyrimidine, cisplatin, taxane, and irinotecan. Capecitabine 1,000 mg/m was administered orally twice daily for 14 days, followed by a 7-day rest period.
