Purpose: Based on randomized clinical trials, this meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of intent-to-cure or prophylactic hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for the treatment of gastric cancer.
Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Medline, and Embase databases were all systemically searched from 2004 to 2023. The quality of the study was assessed by using the Cochrane risk of bias method. The certainty of the evidence was determined by using the GRADE evaluation.
Results: In this study, 12 articles with a total of 1181 patients were analyzed based on the inclusion criteria. The findings revealed that HIPEC had a higher survival rate (risk ratio [RR] 0.60; 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.43, 0.86], P = 0.005, RR 0.82; 95% CI [0.70, 0.97], P = 0.02, RR 0.83; 95% CI [0.71, 0.96], P < 0.01, and RR 0.63 [0.54, 0.73], P < 0.00001) after 1, 2, 3, and 5 years compared with the control group. The RR was statistically significant for 1, 2, 3, and 5 years. Furthermore, the observed overall recurrence rate for the HIPEC group was lower than control group and statistically significant (RR 0.59; 95% CI [0.50, 0.68], P < 0.0001). Higher disease-free survival rate (RR 1.42; 95% CI [1.07, 1.89], P < 0.01) was observed in the HIPEC group and statistically significant.
Conclusions: Gastric cancer patients treated with HIPEC have shown promising outcomes with regard to survival, recurrence, disease-free survival, and adverse reactions. However, multicenter trials with larger sample sizes consisting of different ethnicities is suggested.

The Stockholm Early Detection of Cancer Study (STEADY-CAN) cohort was established to investigate strategies for early cancer detection in a population-based context within Stockholm County, the capital region of Sweden. Utilising real-world data to explore cancer-related healthcare patterns and outcomes, the cohort links extensive clinical and laboratory data from both inpatient and outpatient care in the region. The dataset includes demographic information, detailed diagnostic codes, laboratory results, prescribed medications, and healthcare utilisation data.

Objectives: Past studies have shown the efficacy of spinal targeted drug delivery (TDD) in pain relief, reduction in opioid use, and cost-effectiveness in long-term management of complex chronic pain. We conducted a survey to determine treatment variables associated with patient satisfaction.
Materials And Methods: Patients in a single pain clinic who were implanted with Medtronic pain pumps to relieve intractable pain were identified from our electronic health record.

BACKGROUND This study included 32 patients with single missing teeth and alveolar bone defects and aimed to compare outcomes from guided bone regeneration with a gelatin/polylactic acid (GT/PLA) barrier membrane and a Guidor® bioresorbable matrix barrier dental membrane. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 32 participants were recruited in the clinical study, with single missing teeth and alveolar bone defects, requiring guided bone regeneration (32 missing teeth in total). They were randomly divided into the GT/PLA membrane group (experimental) and Guidor® membrane group (control) by the envelope method (n=16).
