Background: Surgical resection represents the main treatment for resectable nonmetastatic gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Despite the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic resection, its standard use in gastric tumors larger than 5 cm is yet to be established.
Aims: This study aimed to compare the current evidence on laparoscopic resection with the classical open surgical approach in terms of perioperative, postoperative, and oncological outcomes.
Methods: The PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were consulted. Articles comparing the approach to gastric gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors larger than 5 cm by open and laparoscopic surgery were eligible. A post hoc subgroup analysis based on the extent of the surgery was performed to evaluate the operative time, blood loss, and length of hospital stay.
Results: A total of nine studies met the eligibility criteria. In the study, 246 patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery and 301 patients undergoing open surgery were included. The laparoscopic approach had statistically significant lower intraoperative blood loss (p=0.01) and time to oral intake (p<0.01), time to first flatus (p<0.01), and length of hospital stay (0.01), compared to the open surgery approach. No significant differences were found when operative time (0.25), postoperative complications (0.08), R0 resection (0.76), and recurrence rate (0.09) were evaluated. The comparative subgroup analysis between studies could not explain the substantial heterogeneity obtained in the respective outcomes.
Conclusion: The laparoscopic approach in gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors larger than 5 cm compared to the open surgical approach is a technically safe and feasible surgical method with similar oncological results.

This report documents complications in false pilchard Harengula clupeola and scad Decapterus macarellus associated with a salinomycin (60 mg kg-1) and amprolium (100 mg kg-1) gel feed treatment, along with prolonged temperature increase, for an Enteromyxum leei outbreak in a salt water, mixed species, public aquarium exhibit. Shortly after administration, a mass mortality event ensued where hundreds of false pilchards and a few scad died. Medicated gel feed was noted within the gastrointestinal tracts of all affected fish.

Background: Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) is the fifth most common tumor worldwide, imposing a significant disease burden on populations, particularly in Asia. Oxidative stress is well-known to play an essential role in the occurrence and progression of malignancies. Our study aimed to construct a prediction model by exploring the correlation between oxidative stress-related genes and the prognosis of patients with STAD.

Gastric cancer (GC) remains a significant global health challenge. This study aimed to comprehensively analyze GC epidemiology and risk factors to inform prevention and intervention strategies. We analyzed the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 data, conducted 16 different machine learning (ML) models of NHANES data, performed Mendelian randomization (MR) studies on disease phenotypes, dietary preferences, microbiome, blood-based markers, and integrated differential gene expression and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data from multiple cohorts to identify factors associated with GC risk.

Chemotherapy resistance is a great challenge in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC), so it is urgent to explore the prognostic markers of chemoresistance. PUF60 (Poly (U)-binding splicing factor 60) is a nucleic acid-binding protein that has been shown to regulate transcription and link to tumorigenesis in various cancers. However, its biological role and function in chemotherapy resistance of GC is unclear.

The ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) family of metalloproteinases plays a vital role in various biological and pathological processes, including tissue remodeling, angiogenesis, and cancer progression. Among the 19 ADAMTS family members, our research focused on ADAMTS7, which exhibited significant overexpression in gastric cancer (GC). This overexpression was strongly correlated with poor clinical outcomes, including reduced overall survival and heightened metastatic potential.
