Gastric cancer remains one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the world, with a relatively high mortality rate. Due to the heterogeneous course of the disease, its diagnosis and treatment are limited and difficult, and it is associated with a reduced prognosis for patients. That is why it is so important to understand the mechanisms underlying the development and progression of this cancer, with particular emphasis on the role of risk factors. According to the literature data, risk factors include: changes in the composition of the stomach and intestinal microbiota (microbiological dysbiosis and the participation of ), improper diet, environmental and genetic factors, and disorders of the body's immune homeostasis. Therefore, the aim of this review is to systematize the knowledge on the influence of human microbiota dysbiosis on the development and progression of gastric cancer, with particular emphasis on the role of the immune system in this process.

Single-incision plus one-port laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double-channel anastomosis (SILT-DT) is a minimally invasive surgical approach for treating proximal gastric cancer. This technique includes comprehensive laparoscopic resection of the proximal stomach, lymph node dissection, and double-tract anastomosis. By integrating single-port laparoscopic surgery with an auxiliary operating hole, SILT-DT reduces procedural difficulty while facilitating the placement of an abdominal drainage tube.

No established method currently exists for evaluating tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in gastric cancer (GC), and their clinical significance based on infiltration site in GC remains unclear. In this study, we developed a method to evaluate TILs according to their infiltration site as a prognostic marker for GC. We retrospectively analyzed 103 patients with advanced GC who underwent curative resection.

Betel nut chewing, common in several Asian populations, is linked to increased cancer risk, including oral, esophageal, gastric, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Aspirin shows potential as a chemopreventive agent. This study investigates the association between aspirin use and cancer risk among betel nut chewers.

Gastric cancer is a common malignant tumor with high incidence and mortality. The overexpression of Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is associated with increased metastatic potential and poor clinical outcome in gastric cancer. Despite the proven clinical response rates of approved HER2-targeted therapies, including Trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy, their limited long-term clinical benefits and inevitable disease progression still pose significant challenges to the clinical treatment of gastric cancer.
