Of these, we recruited 19 who initiated 23 until September 2021.The median overall survival was 5.83 months 6.31 FTD/TPI. Median...
Trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) is an oral anticancer agent used as a third- or later-line treatment for patients with metastatic gastric cancer/gastroesophageal junction cancer (mGC/GEJC). The C-reactive protein-to-serum albumin ratio (CAR) inflammation-based prognostic marker in cancer. This retrospective study evaluated CAR's clinical significance factor 64 mGC/GEJC administered FTD/TPI therapy. Patients were categorized into high- and low-CAR groups based on pre-treatment blood data....
Background/Aim: Radical esophagectomy after preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is the standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, careful selection required when considering organ function in elderly patients. Prealbumin, a rapid turnover protein, short-term dynamic nutritional index, and its relationship with long-term postoperative survival various cancers has been previously reported. association between serum prealbumin level...
Background/Aim: Dietary intake (DI) loss after gastrectomy is a serious problem for patients with gastric cancer. This study compared the dietary surgery in early cancer who received laparoscopic distal (LDG) versus those underwent conventional open (ODG). Patients and Methods: was prospective, observational enrolling assessed using food frequency questionnaire eighty-two items (FFQW82) at nutritional counseling before one three months surgery. Results: A total of 118 were included. Among...
Abstract Background Identifying the most effective postoperative surveillance interval in patients with gastric cancer (GC) remains challenging. To elucidate a logical and schedule, we analyzed GC recurrence risk trends after gastrectomy using hazard function. Methods We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 2503 who underwent curative resection between 2000 2018. examined over time influence clinicopathological variables on it. Results Overall, recurred 291 (11.6%) median 64.6 months....
Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) is the standard treatment for gastric cancer, during which laparoscopic Billroth I anastomosis technique, also known as delta-shaped (DA), widely performed. This study aimed to evaluate differences in short- and long-term symptoms between DA traditional circular (CA) techniques.
Background/Aim: This study aimed to compare dietary intake (DI) after gastrectomy for gastric cancer between patients with (C group) and without (NC postoperative surgical complications. Patients Methods: prospective observational enrolled who underwent cancer. DI was assessed using a food frequency questionnaire 82 items (FFQW82) during nutritional counseling before surgery at one three months surgery. Results: A total of 225 participated in this study. Of the patients, 193 had no...
Background/Aim: This study aimed to investigate the differences in postoperative dietary intake (DI) loss between men and women after radical resection for early gastric cancer (GC), identify effective nutritional support both sexes. Patients Methods: prospective, observational enrolled patients who underwent gastrectomy GC. DI was assessed using food frequency questionnaire containing 82 items (FFQW82) during counseling before surgery one three months postoperatively. Results: The median...
The Inflammatory Burden Index (IBI) has been reported as a novel prognostic indicator in several cancers and diseases. However, research on the IBI patients with gastric cancer (GC) after gastrectomy is insufficient. This study investigated utility of preoperative GC.
