In this editorial, we provide commentary on six articles recently published in the . These articles collectively present the latest findings in the field of gastric and colorectal cancer (CRC) research. The global incidence of gastric cancer varies based on geographical location, age, and sex. The disease predominantly affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, with a slightly higher prevalence in men than in women. CRC is characterized by a low 5-year survival rate and high mortality rate. It primarily affects individuals over the age of 50, and the risk of disease increases with age. Both gastric and CRC pose significant health threats, thus requiring more effective diagnostic, therapeutic, and supportive care strategies to improve patient outcomes. The articles discussed in this editorial encompass topics such as screening, diagnosis, mechanisms of progression, and postoperative recovery in gastric and CRC, and the findings offer valuable insights for clinical decision-making in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of gastrointestinal cancers.
