Introduction: For complicated surgical patients, enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) decreases stress and hospital stays. It accelerates recovery and lowers readmissions, morbidity, and death. ERAS's effectiveness in stomach cancer laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) or robotic gastrectomy is still debated.

Aim: This study assesses the efficacy and safety of the ERAS program for patients undergoing gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Material And Methods: PRISMA-compliant searches were performed in Medline, Embase, PubMed, the Web of Sciences, and the Cochrane Library databases until March 2023. The search included articles that compared ERAS protocol results for gastric cancer surgery patients to conventional care. RevMan performed meta-analysis, and the Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool assessed study quality.

Results: This meta-analysis contained 11 carefully chosen randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 1790 people. The ERAS group had 902 participants, while the traditional care group had 888. The ERAS group had a shorter post-operative hospital stay, with a weighted mean difference (WMD) of -1.12 days (95% CI: -1.89 to -0.35, p = 0.00001), I = 89%, and a lower number of patients with post-operative problems, with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.73 (95% CI: 0.55 to 0.97; p = 0.03), I = 60%.

Conclusions: The ERAS procedure has been shown to be effective as well as beneficial for patients undergoing either laparoscopic-assisted or robotic gastrectomy for gastric cancer, since it lowers post-operative complications and accelerates recovery with improved results.

Background: Gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GEJAC) exhibits distinct molecular characteristics due to its unique anatomical location. We sought to investigate effective and reliable molecular classification of GEJAC to guide personalized treatment.

Methods: We analyzed the whole genomic, transcriptomic, T-cell receptor repertoires, and immunohistochemical data in 92 GEJAC patients and delineated the landscape of genetic and immune alterations.

Logical Analysis of Multiple miRNAs with Isothermal Molecular Classifiers Based on LATE-RCA.

Nano Lett

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Clinical Laboratory Diagnostics (Chinese Ministry of Education), College of Laboratory Medicine, Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing 400016, P. R. China.

Logical analysis of multiple-miRNA expression information and immediate output of diagnostic results facilitates early cancer detection. In this work, we constructed an isothermal molecular classifier capable of performing computations on multiple miRNAs and directly providing diagnosis results. First, we developed linear-after-the-exponential rolling circle amplification (LATE-RCA), a nearly linear isothermal amplification that does not destroy the original quantitative information about miRNAs.

Objectives: Endoscopic full-thickness resection for gastric submucosal tumors is gradually gaining popularity, and secure and amenable closure is key to its success. This study aimed to compare the reopenable clip over-the-line method with the purse-string method for defect closure after endoscopic full-thickness resection for gastric submucosal tumors.

Methods: This historical control trial included 37 consecutive patients with 37 gastric submucosal tumors, who underwent endoscopic full-thickness resection between January 2021 and July 2024.

Department of Pancreatic and Gastric Surgery, National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, 100021, People's Republic of China.

Introduction: Early diagnosis is crucial for improving the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer (GC). However, the currently used biomarkers for diagnosing GC have limited sensitivity and specificity. This study aimed to develop a novel diagnostic model based on miRNAs from glycosylated extracellular vesicles and evaluate its effectiveness in diagnosing gastric cancer.
