The role of epidermal growth factor-like module containing mucin-like hormone receptor 2 in human cancers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are among the most diverse and ubiquitous proteins in all of biology. The epidermal growth factor-seven span transmembrane (EGF-TM7) subfamily of adhesion GPCRs is a small subset whose members are mainly expressed on ...

Impact of Circular Stapler Size on Short‐Term Outcomes and Long‐Term Quality of Life After McKeown Esophagectomy

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated the impact of circular stapler size on both short‐term outcomes and long‐term QOL after McKeown esophagectomy. We revealed that short‐term outcomes, including anastomotic leakage and stenosis, did not differ between patients who underwent anastomosis with a 21 mm stapler and those with a 23 mm stapler.

Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer: Current Evidence and Future Perspectives

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Esophageal cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy with regional variations in histological subtypes. Adenocarcinoma predominates in Western countries, whereas squamous cell carcinoma is more common in Asia. Despite advances in multimodal therapy, esophagectomy remains the cornerstone of curative treatment, and the development of various ...

Prognostic Impact of Immunoscore in Pathological Stage III Differentiated Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Cohort Study Including PD‐L1/PD‐L2 Expression Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We assessed the prognostic ability of the Immunoscore and PD‐L1 or PD‐L2 expression in pStage III GC patients by immunohistochemistry. The results showed that Immunoscore was an independent prognostic factor in differentiated GC, but not in undifferentiated GC.

Influence of Hospital and Surgeon Volumes on Clinical Outcomes After Standard Surgery for Advanced Gastric Cancer: Supplementary Analysis of the Multicenter Randomized Phase III Trial JCOG1001

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We have evaluated interinstitutional variation to verify the generalization and standardization of gastric cancer surgery from a supplementary analysis of the randomized phase III trial JCOG1001. Although there was some degree of interinstitutional variation in short‐ and long‐term outcomes after standard gastric surgery, we found no correlation ...

Intratumoral Fusobacterium nucleatum Drives Cancer‐Associated Fibroblasts Enrichment and Immune Exclusion in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Fusobacterium nucleatum contributes to the progression of ESCC by inducing NF‐κB–mediated inflammatory signaling in tumor cells and promoting CAFs activation. Its presence may facilitate immune exclusion and tumor invasion through stromal remodeling. Furthermore, F.

Exercise and Nutrition Prehabilitation Program During Preoperative Chemotherapy Followed by Esophagectomy in Older Patients With Esophageal Cancer: A Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This prospective randomized trial evaluated whether prehabilitation, exercise and nutrition intervention, enhance skeletal muscle mass during neoadjuvant chemotherapy in older patients with esophageal cancer undergoing esophagectomy. We also investigated whether exercise alone was sufficient to increase skeletal muscle mass, and whether nutritional ...

Impact of Body Weight Loss During Preoperative Chemoradiotherapy on Prognosis of Patients With Lower Rectal Cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between changes in body weight and composition during chemoradiotherapy, such as the psoas muscle mass index, visceral fat index, and subcutaneous fat index obtained from computed tomography images, and long‐term outcomes in rectal cancer patients.
