Extracellular glypican‐1 affects tumor progression and prognosis in esophageal cancer
This study presents novel findings on the role of glypican‐1 (GPC1) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). We confirmed that high concentrations of GPC1 protein in preoperative plasma are significantly related to advanced stage and distant metastatic recurrence and was an independent poor prognostic factor in ESCC patients (p = 0.010, HR = 4.22).

Importance of mediastinal granulomatous/sarcoid‐like lymphadenopathy in extrathoracic malignancies
Abstract Background In patients with extrathoracic malignancies (ETM), granulomatous lymph adenopathy called sarcoid‐like reactions (SLR) can be seen in the regional or draining lymph nodes. We hypothesized that SLR may be a sign of imminent metastasis and investigated the clinical course and rate of recurrence in patients with ETM and granulomatous ...

Abstract Background The presence of lymph node (LN) metastasis directly affects the treatment strategy for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has been widely used in patients with advanced LUAD to identify targeted genes, while early detection of pathologic LN metastasis using NGS has not been assessed.
