Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is a common malignancy with a high incidence in East Asia. Gastric resection ranges from endoscopic resection to open total gastrectomy. However, nationwide data are lacking. METHODS This observational study analyzed data from the publicly accessible National Database of Health Insurance Claims and Specific Health Checkups, which includes most national health insurance claims data in Japan. Trends in the types of resection performed for malignant gastric tumors between 2014 and 2021, patients' age and sex distributions, and regional disparities were investigated. RESULTS The annual number of resections was highest in 2015 (109,000) and lowest in 2020 (90,000) after the COVID-19 pandemic. The proportion of endoscopic resections increased from 47% in 2014 to 57% in 2021 while that of total gastrectomies decreased from 17 to 10%. In 2021, 70% of patients who underwent resection were men. That year, 83.8% of all patients who underwent any type of gastric resection and 87.1% of those who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection were aged ≥ 65 years. The annual incidence of gastric resection per million population was highest in Tottori (n = 1236) and lowest in Okinawa (n = 251). The proportion of endoscopic resections was highest in Miyagi (66%) and lowest in Aichi (45%) and that of open surgery was highest in Aomori (36%) and lowest in Wakayama (5%). CONCLUSIONS Gastric malignancy is increasingly treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection rather than open total gastrectomy. However, regional disparities remain in resection type. Standardization of treatment and a more even distribution of specialists are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Gastric cancer (GC) is a complex disease representing a significant global health concern. Advanced tools for the early diagnosis and prediction of adverse outcomes are crucial. In this context, artificial intelligence (AI) plays a fundamental role. The aim of this work was to develop a diagnostic and prognostic tool for GC, providing support to clinicians in critical decision-making and enabling personalised strategies. METHODS Different machine learning and deep learning techniques were explored to build diagnostic and prognostic models, ensuring model interpretability and transparency through explainable AI methods. These models were developed and cross-validated using data from 590 Spanish Caucasian patients with primary GC and 633 cancer-free individuals. Up to 261 variables were analysed, including demographic, environmental, clinical, tumoral, and genetic data. Variables such as Helicobacter pylori infection, tobacco use, family history of GC, TNM staging, metastasis, tumour location, treatment received, gender, age, and genetic factors (single nucleotide polymorphisms) were selected as inputs due to their association with the risk and progression of the disease. RESULTS The XGBoost algorithm (version 1.7.4) achieved the best performance for diagnosis, with an AUC value of 0.68 using 5-fold cross-validation. As for prognosis, the Random Survival Forest algorithm achieved a C-index of 0.77. Of interest, the incorporation of genetic data into the clinical-demographics models significantly increased discriminatory ability in both diagnostic and prognostic models. CONCLUSIONS This article presents GastricAITool, a simple and intuitive decision support tool for the diagnosis and prognosis of GC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore and verify the effect and potential mechanism of Brucea javanica Seed Oil Emulsion Injection (YDZI) and Shengmai Injection (SMI) on peripheral microcirculation dysfunction in treatment of gastric cancer (GC). METHODS The potential mechanisms of YDZI and SMI were explored through network pharmacology and verified by cellular and clinical experiments. Human microvascular endothelial cells (HMECs) were cultured for quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blot analysis, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured for tube formation assay. Twenty healthy volunteers and 97 patients with GC were enrolled. Patients were divided into surgical resection, surgical resection with chemotherapy, and surgical resection with chemotherapy combining YDZI and SMI groups. Forearm skin blood perfusion was measured and recorded by laser speckle contrast imaging coupled with post-occlusive reactive hyperemia. Cutaneous vascular conductance and microvascular reactivity parameters were calculated and compared across the groups. RESULTS After network pharmacology analysis, 4 ingredients, 82 active compounds, and 92 related genes in YDZI and SMI were screened out. β-Sitosterol, an active ingredient and intersection compound of YDZI and SMI, upregulated the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) and prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2, P<0.01), downregulated the expression of caspase 9 (CASP9) and estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1, P<0.01) in HMECs under oxaliplatin stimulation, and promoted tube formation through VEGFA. Chemotherapy significantly impaired the microvascular reactivity in GC patients, whereas YDZI and SMI ameliorated this injury (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS YDZI and SMI ameliorated peripheral microvascular reactivity in GC patients. β-Sitosterol may improve peripheral microcirculation by regulating VEGFA, PTGS2, ESR1, and CASP9.

Abstract
The association between periodontal diseases and the risk of gastrointestinal cancers, especially site-specific gastrointestinal cancers, remains unclear. Here, we comprehensively searched PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Google Scholar from inception to April 2024 to identify relevant studies. The pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with a random-effects model. Subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses were conducted to confirm the robustness of the main findings in different populations. This study was reported according to PRISMA 2020 guidelines. In total, we identified 19 studies, including 16.6 million participants. Individuals with periodontal diseases had an increased risk of overall gastrointestinal cancers compared with those without periodontal diseases (HR 1.31, 95% CI 1.16-1.49). Periodontal diseases significantly increased the risk of esophageal cancer by 39% (HR 1.39, 95% CI 1.15-1.68), gastric cancer by 13% (HR 1.13, 95% CI 1.01-1.26), colorectal cancer by 21% (HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.05-1.39), pancreatic cancer by 35% (HR 1.35, 95% CI 1.00-1.82), and liver cancer by 9% (HR 1.09, 95% CI 1.04-1.13). The risk of gastrointestinal cancers was significantly increased by periodontitis (HR 1.45, 95% CI 1.14-1.85), gingivitis (HR 1.03, 95% CI 1.01-1.04), and periodontitis/gingivitis (HR 1.27, 95% CI 1.07-1.51). Furthermore, severe periodontal diseases showed a significantly increased risk of gastrointestinal cancer (HR 1.79, 95% CI 1.07-2.99). Results of sensitivity analyses for site-specific gastrointestinal cancers were robust with the main findings. In summary, periodontal diseases, especially severe periodontitis, increase the risk of overall and site-specific gastrointestinal cancers. Interventions to prevent and manage periodontal diseases may reduce the risk of developing gastrointestinal cancers.

Prevalence of Gastric Precursor Lesions in Countries With Differential Gastric Cancer Burden: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2024; 22:1605-1617.e46.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The prevalence of precursor lesions for gastric cancer (GC) and the differential burden between countries of varying GC risk is not well-understood. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the global prevalence of precursor lesions. METHODS We estimated the prevalence of atrophic gastritis (AG), gastric intestinal metaplasia (IM), and dysplasia in regions with low, medium, and high GC incidence. Because IM is an advanced manifestation of AG, we assessed the prevalence of less advanced precursors, regardless of the presence of more advanced lesions. Prevalence was sub-stratified by Helicobacter pylori infection, symptomatology, and period (<2000, 2000-2010, and >2010). RESULTS Among the 582 articles that underwent full-text review, 166 studies met inclusion criteria. The global prevalence estimates of AG, IM, and dysplasia were 25.4%, 16.2%, and 2.0%, respectively, on the basis of 126 studies that reported the prevalence of less advanced precursors, regardless of the presence of more advanced lesions. The prevalence of all precursor lesions was higher in high and medium compared with low GC incidence countries (P < .01). Prevalence of AG and IM was significantly higher among H pylori-infected individuals (P < .01) but not statistically different between symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals (P > .17). All precursors demonstrated a secular decrease in prevalence over time. CONCLUSIONS Gastric precursor lesions have differences in prevalence in regions with differential GC incidence and are associated with H pylori infection. Because of the substantial prevalence of precursor lesions in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals, symptomatic evaluation may not be sufficient to identify individuals at risk. These estimates provide important insights for tailoring GC prevention strategies.

[PMID: 38956557 PMCID: PMC11221210 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-19104-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the historical global incidence and mortality trends of gastric cancer and predicted mortality of gastric cancer by 2035. METHODS Incidence data were retrieved from the Cancer Incidence in Five Continents (CI5) volumes I-XI, and mortality data were obtained from the latest update of the World Health Organization (WHO) mortality database. We used join-point regression analysis to examine historical incidence and mortality trends and used the package NORDPRED in R to predict the number of deaths and mortality rates by 2035 by country and sex. RESULTS More than 1,089,000 new cases of gastric cancer and 769,000 related deaths were reported in 2020. The average annual percent change (AAPC) in the incidence of gastric cancer from 2003 to 2012 among the male population, South Korea, Japan, Malta, Canada, Cyprus, and Switzerland showed an increasing trend (P > 0.05); among the female population, Canada [AAPC, 1.2; (95%Cl, 0.5-2), P < 0.05] showed an increasing trend; and South Korea, Ecuador, Thailand, and Cyprus showed an increasing trend (P > 0.05). AAPC in the mortality of gastric cancer from 2006 to 2015 among the male population, Thailand [3.5 (95%cl, 1.6-5.4), P < 0.05] showed an increasing trend; Malta Island, New Zealand, Turkey, Switzerland, and Cyprus had an increasing trend (P > 0.05); among the male population aged 20-44, Thailand [AAPC, 3.4; (95%cl, 1.3-5.4), P < 0.05] showed an increasing trend; Norway, New Zealand, The Netherlands, Slovakia, France, Colombia, Lithuania, and the USA showed an increasing trend (P > 0.05). It is predicted that the mortality rate in Slovenia and France's female population will show an increasing trend by 2035. It is predicted that the absolute number of deaths in the Israeli male population and in Chile, France, and Canada female population will increase by 2035. CONCLUSION In the past decade, the incidence and mortality of gastric cancer have shown a decreasing trend; however, there are still some countries showing an increasing trend, especially among populations younger than 45 years. Although mortality in most countries is predicted to decline by 2035, the absolute number of deaths due to gastric cancer may further increase due to population growth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although overall incidence of gastric cancer is decreasing, incidence has been increasing among young people in some Western countries. This trend may stem from the increase in autoimmune conditions. METHODS A nested case-control study of gastric cancer in UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink. Up to ten cancer-free controls were matched to cases by age and sex. Conditional logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for associations between analyzable autoimmune conditions (n = 34) and gastric cancer with Bonferroni correction. We evaluated associations between pernicious anaemia and other conditions. A meta-analysis of published prospective studies and ours was conducted. RESULTS Among 6586 cases (1156 cardia, 1104 non-cardia, and 4334 overlapping/unspecified tumours) and 65,687 controls, any autoimmune condition was associated with gastric cancer (OR = 1.10; 95% CI: 1.01-1.20). Individuals with pernicious anaemia had higher gastric cancer risk than those without (OR = 2.75; 2.19-3.44). Among controls, pernicious anaemia was associated with seven other conditions (OR range: 2.21-29.80). The pooled estimate for any autoimmune condition and gastric cancer was 1.17 (1.14-1.21; n = 47,126 cases). CONCLUSION Autoimmunity increases gastric cancer risk. Some autoimmune conditions may be indirectly associated with gastric cancer via pernicious anaemia. Pernicious anaemia could be considered for gastric cancer risk stratification and screening.

[PMID: 38983960 PMCID: PMC11230058 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v30.i24.3059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have demonstrated the influence of immunity and inflammation on the development of tumors. Although single biomarkers of immunity and inflammation have been shown to be clinically predictive, the use of biomarkers integrating both to predict prognosis in patients with gastric cancer remains to be investigated. AIM To investigate the prognostic and clinical significance of inflammatory biomarkers and lymphocytes in patients undergoing surgical treatment for gastric cancer. METHODS Univariate COX regression analysis was performed to identify potential prognostic factors for patients with gastric cancer undergoing surgical treatment. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator-COX (LASSO-COX) regression analysis was performed to integrate these factors and formulate a new prognostic immunoinflammatory index (PII). The correlation between PII and clinical characteristics was statistically analyzed. Nomograms incorporating the PII score were devised and validated based on the time-dependent area under the curve and decision curve analysis. RESULTS Patients exhibiting elevated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, and systemic immune inflammatory index displayed inferior progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Conversely, low levels of CD3(+), CD3(+) CD8(+), CD4(+)CD8(+), and CD3(+)CD16(+)CD56(+) T lymphocytes were associated with improved PFS and OS, while high CD19(+) T lymphocyte levels were linked to worse PFS and OS. The PII score demonstrated associations with tumor characteristics (primary tumor site and tumor size), establishing itself as an independent prognostic factor for both PFS and OS. Time-dependent area under the curve and decision curve analysis affirmed the effectiveness of the PII-based nomogram as a robust prognostic predictive model. CONCLUSION PII may be a reliable predictor of prognosis in patients with gastric cancer undergoing surgical treatment, and it offers insights into cancer-related immune-inflammatory responses, with potential significance in clinical practice.

Abstract
Gastric cancer exerts a significant healthcare burden worldwide and is highly geographically heterogeneous. This study investigates the burden of gastric cancer in China from 1990 to 2019 and compares it with Japan, South Korea, and the United States. The results indicated a declining trend in ASIR and ASDR in four countries. However, the incidence and death rates in China remain disproportionately high. Significant gender disparities exist in the incidence and death rates, with males experiencing significantly higher rates than females. Incidence and death rates were found to increase with age in all studied countries. In China, a transient upward trend was observed in the period effect, whereas the cohort effect has been declining. In contrast, the remaining countries showed decreasing patterns in both period and cohort effects. The burden of disease remains high in China, therefore, broaden the scope of gastroscopy screening and concentrate on high-risk groups is vital.

Abstract
Background Gastric cancer necessitates novel treatments, and exosomes are promising therapeutic carriers. We created miR-494-3p inhibitor exosomes to assess their effects on gastric cancer cells. Methods We conducted a comprehensive investigation into the expression of the oncogenic miR-494-3p in gastric cancer tissues from patients. Subsequently, we engineered miR-494-3p inhibitor-loaded exosomes and characterized their morphology and size through transmission electron microscopy and nanoparticle tracking analysis. We next determined the encapsulation efficiency of the miR-494-3p inhibitor within these exosomes and evaluated the exosomes' structural integrity by quantifying the presence of exosomal markers. Following these validations, we co-cultured miR-494-3p inhibitor exosomes with cancer cells and employed PKH26 staining to visualize the efficient endocytosis of engineered exosomes by gastric cancer cells and assess the impact of these modified exosomes on gastric cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion. Results Increased expression of miR-494-3p was observed in gastric cancer tissues as compared to controls. Significant low miR-494-3p levels were found within miR-494-3p inhibitor exosomes, signifying effective encapsulation. The incorporation of miR-494-3p inhibitor into engineered exosomes did not alter exosome morphology or size. Finally, PKH26-stained exosomes clearly demonstrated efficient endocytosis by gastric cancer cells, leading to reduced proliferation, migration, invasion, and increased apoptosis. Conclusion Our study identifies elevated miR-494-3p in gastric cancer tissues prompting the development of miR-494-3p inhibitor-loaded exosomes with efficient encapsulation. These engineered exosomes demonstrate successful endocytosis by cancer cells. This highlights their potential for therapeutic use in gastric cancer treatment by suppressing proliferation, migration, and invasion while enhancing apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric Cancer (GC)is the third leading cause of cancer death worldwide. We aimed to compare the quality of care of GC at global, regional, and national levels from 1990 to 2017 in different age, sex, and socio-demographic groups using the quality-of-care index. MATERIAL METHOD: We used Mortality to Incidence Ratio, DALY to Prevalence Ratio, YLL to YLD Ratio, and Prevalence to Incidence Ratio, that all indicate the quality of care. Then, using Principal Component Analysis (PCA), these values are combined. A new index called QCI (Quality of Care Index), which indicates quality, is introduced to compare the quality of care in different countries in 1990 and 2017. Scores were calculated and scaled 0-100, with higher scores indicating better status. RESULTS The global QCI of GC in 1990 and 2017 was 35.7 and 66.7, respectively. The QCI index is 89.6 and 16.4 in high and low SDI countries, respectively. In 2017, Japan had the highest QCI with a 100 score. Japan was followed by South Korea, Singapore, Australia, and the United States with 99.5, 98.4, 98.3, and 90.0. On the other hand, the Central African Republic, Eritrea, Papua New Guinea, Lesotho, and Afghanistan with 11.6, 13.0, 13.1, 13.5, and 13.7 had the worst QCI, respectively. CONCLUSION The quality of care of GC has increased worldwide from 1990 to 2017. Also, higher SDI was associated with more quality of care. We recommend conducting more screening and therapeutic programs for early detection and to improve gastric cancer treatment in developing countries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) in conjunction with body composition change indices, namely subcutaneous fat area (SFA) and skeletal muscle index (SMI), with regard to clinical outcomes in patients with gastric cancer (GC) undergoing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) treatment. METHODS This retrospective investigation encompassed patients with comprehensive clinical and pathological data, inclusive of portal phase enhanced CT images. Continuous variables underwent analysis utilizing the Student t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test, while categorical variables were assessed employing the Pearson chi-squared test or Fisher test. Survival outcomes were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and the Log-rank test. Independent prognostic indicators were determined through Cox regression analysis, and a nomogram predicting survival probability for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) was constructed. RESULTS Within the PNI-SFA groups, patients in Group 1 exhibited inferior PFS and OS compared to the other two groups. Similarly, among the PNI-SMI groups, Group 1 patients demonstrated poorer PFS and OS. PNI-SMI and Eosi were identified as independent prognostic factors through Cox regression analysis. Furthermore, positive associations with patient prognosis were observed for BMI, SAF, SMI, and PNI. CONCLUSION The comprehensive consideration of PNI-SFA and PNI-SMI proved to be a superior prognostic predictor for GC patients undergoing ICI treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development and progression of gastric cancer (GC) are closely linked to the nutritional status of patients. Although immunotherapy has been demonstrated to be clinically effective, the relationships of sarcopenia and myosteatosis with the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with gastric cancer remain to be characterized. AIM To assess the effects of sarcopenia and myosteatosis on the clinical outcomes of patients with GC undergoing treatment with an ICI. METHODS We performed a retrospective study of patients who were undergoing immunotherapy for GC. For the evaluation of sarcopenia, the optimal cut-off value for the skeletal muscle index was established using receiver operating characteristic analysis of data obtained from pre-treatment computed tomography images at the L3 vertebral level. Myosteatosis was defined using the mean skeletal muscle density (SMD), with a threshold value of < 41 Hounsfield units (HU) for patients with a body mass index (BMI) < 25 kg/m² and < 33 HU for those with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m². The log-rank test was used to compare progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), and a Cox proportional hazard model was used to identify prognostic factors. Nomograms were developed to predict the PFS and OS of patients on the basis of the results of multivariate analyses. RESULTS We studied 115 patients who were undergoing ICI therapy for GC, of whom 27.4% had sarcopenia and 29.8% had myosteatosis. Patients with sarcopenia or myosteatosis had significantly shorter PFS and OS than those without these conditions. Furthermore, both sarcopenia and myosteatosis were found to be independent predictors of PFS and OS in patients with GC administering an ICI. The prediction models created for PFS and OS were associated with C-indexes of 0.758 and 0.781, respectively. CONCLUSION The presence of sarcopenia or myosteatosis is a reliable predictor of the clinical outcomes of patients with GC who are undergoing treatment with an ICI.

Abstract
Objective: This research aimed to explore a diagnostic method based on serum ALDH3B1 and to evaluate the clinical diagnostic efficacy in gastric cancer (GC) by comparing it with the traditional GC diagnostic method, the carcinoembryonic protein (CEA) assay. Methods: Serum samples were collected from 70 healthy volunteers and various patients (GC: 76, benign gastric lesions: 20, postoperative: 37, recurrence: 56). The diagnostic efficacy of serum ALDH3B1, CEA and the co-diagnosis were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve. ALDH3B1 protein levels were evaluated by western blot. Results: The co-diagnosis of ALDH3B1 and CEA had the highest diagnostic efficacy (area under the curve = 0.841). Conclusion: Serum ALDH3B1 may be used as an auxiliary diagnostic biomarker for GC, and its co-diagnosis with CEA can improve diagnostic efficacy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It's still controversial whether Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication can reverse atrophic gastritis (AG) and intestinal metaplasia (IM). Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to estimate the effect of H. pylori eradication on AG and IM. METHODS We searched the PubMed, Web of Science and EMBASE datasets through April 2023 for epidemiological studies, which provided mean glandular atrophy (GA) or IM score before and after H. pylori eradication, or provided ORs, RRs or HRs and 95% CIs for the association of AG or IM with H. pylori eradication. Weighted mean difference (WMD) and pooled ORs and 95%CIs were used to estimate the effect of H. pylori eradication on AG and IM. RESULTS Twenty articles with a total of 5242 participants were included in this meta-analysis. H. pylori eradication significantly decreased GA score in the antrum (WMD -0.36; 95% CI: -0.52, -0.19, p < 0.01), GA score in the corpus (WMD -0.35; 95% CI: -0.52, -0.19, p < 0.01), IM score in the antrum (WMD -0.16; 95% CI: -0.26, -0.07, p < 0.01) and IM score in the corpus (WMD -0.20; 95% CI: -0.37, -0.04, p = 0.01). H. pylori eradication significantly improved AG (pooled OR 2.96; 95% CI: 1.70, 5.14, p < 0.01) and IM (pooled OR 2.41; 95% CI: 1.24, 4.70, p < 0.01). The association remained significant in the subgroup analyses by study design, sites of lesions, regions and follow-up time. Although Publication bias was observed for AG, the association remained significant after trim-and-fill adjustment. CONCLUSIONS H. pylori eradication could significantly improve AG and IM at early stage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND this study aimed to evaluate the effects of age, time period and cohort (A-P-C) on gastric cancer (GC) mortality in Spain from 1980 to 2021. METHODS an ecological trend study was performed (with aggregated data obtained from the Spanish National Statistics Institute (INE). Joinpoint regression software was used to estimate rates by sex and age group (< 35, 35-64, > 64 years) and mortality trends. The National Cancer Institute A-P-C tools were used to assess the effects of age, time of death and birth cohort. RESULTS GC mortality rates in Spain decreased significantly in both sexes. In the under-35 age group, rates were stable after an initial significant decline. In the 35-64 age group, the decline was more pronounced in males than in females. In the 65+ age group, rates fell significantly for both sexes, but more so for females than for males. The net drift and local drift also showed significant decreases across all age groups from 24 years onwards. GC mortality rates increased with age and decreased with calendar time and successive birth cohorts, regardless of sex. The ratio of age-specific rates between males and females increased with age, and birth cohort relative risk estimates followed a steady downward trend until the mid-1970s, after which the decline stabilized. The relative risk decreased for both sexes, with a more pronounced decrease in males. CONCLUSION GC mortality rates in Spain have been decreasing over time and across successive birth cohorts, with a stabilizing trend observed for those under 35 years of age.

The Clinicopathological Features of Mixed Carcinoma in 7,215 Patients with Gastric Cancer in a Tertiary Hospital in South Korea. Gut Liver 2023; 17:731-740. [PMID: 36510778 PMCID: PMC10502493 DOI: 10.5009/gnl220254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2022] [Revised: 08/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background/Aims There are few reports regarding mixed carcinoma, defined as a mixture of glandular and poorly cohesive components, in patients with gastric cancer (GC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the proportion and characteristics of mixed carcinoma in GC patients. Methods A total of 7,215 patients diagnosed with GC at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital were enrolled from March 2011 to February 2020. GC was divided into four groups (well-moderately differentiated GC, poorly differentiated GC, poorly cohesive carcinoma, and mixed carcinoma). The proportion of each GC type and the clinicopathological features were analyzed and divided into early GC and advanced GC. Results The proportion of mixed carcinoma was 10.9% (n=787). In early GC, submucosal invasion was the most common in poorly differentiated (53.7%), and mixed carcinoma ranked second (41.1%). Mixed carcinoma showed the highest proportion of lymph node metastasis in early GC (23.0%) and advanced GC (78.3%). In advanced GC, the rate of distant metastasis was 3.6% and 3.9% in well-moderately differentiated GC and mixed carcinoma, respectively, lower than that in poorly differentiated GC (6.4%) and poorly cohesive carcinoma (5.7%), without statistical significance. Conclusions Mixed carcinoma was associated with lymph node metastasis compared to other histological GC subtypes. And it showed relatively common submucosal invasion in early GC, but the rates of venous invasion and distant metastasis were lower in advanced GC. Further research is needed to uncover the mechanism underlying these characteristics of mixed carcinoma (Trial registration number: NCT04973631).

Abstract
Gastric cancer remains undoubtedly one of the most common and deadly cancers worldwide. The global incidence shows wide geographic variation with a high prevalence in Asia. Besides that, there are evident differences in epidemiology, histopathology, tumor location, diagnosis and treatment strategy between east and west countries. Gastric cancer represents an aggressive disease, with many factors influencing its development and also recurrence after surgical resection. New knowledge of disease spread and new routes of metastases are now emerging and the 'novel' concept of complete mesogastric excision for gastric cancer is under consideration and debate. This article aims to analyze and highlight this new concept after a careful literature review, offering also a view toward the future.

Abstract
Stomach cancer (GC) ranks fifth in the structure of cancer incidence and remains the third leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. The formation of gastric cancer occurs under the influence of genetic and epigenetic factors. Among the latter, eating habits play a significant role. Primary prevention of cancer through lifestyle and dietary changes is an important and high priority strategy in modern health care. This article presents an overview and systematization of the available data on the influence of nutritional factors on the risk of gastric cancer formation.

Abstract
TRIP13 is highly expressed in various human tumors and promotes tumorigenesis. We aimed to explore the biological effect of TRIP13 on gastric cancer. The RNA sequence data were retrieved from TCGA to evaluate TRIP13 mRNA expression in gastric cancer. Paired formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded blocks were further analyzed to verify the relationship between TRIP13 expression and carcinogenic status. The functions of TRIP13 on the proliferation of gastric malignancy were investigated by MTT, flow cytometry, colony formation experiment, and nude mouse tumor formation experiment. Finally, microarray analysis of TRIP13-related pathways was performed to identify the potential underlying mechanism of TRIP13 in gastric cancer. TRIP13 was found to have high expression in tumor samples. TRIP13 expression status was significantly subjective to tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging and poor survival. The downregulation of TRIP13 promoted apoptosis and inhibited tumor growth. TRIP13-dependent JAK/STAT and NF-κB signaling cascade were found as two key pathways in the carcinogenesis of GC. In conclusion, TRIP13 participates in the carcinogenesis of stomach cancer, and its overexpression in the cancerous tissues dovetail with advanced stage and survival. Moreover, TRIP13 functions as an upstream regulator of the JAK/STAT and p53 signaling pathways, which play critical roles in developing various malignancies.

Sipponen P, Sarna S, Seppä K. Risk of gastric carcinoma will be low in generations born at turn of the 20 th and 21 st centuries in Finland. Modelling NORDCAN data of the age group specific incidence rates of gastric cancer with PLS-regression and with attention to age ('age effect') and year of the birth ('cohort effect'). Scand J Gastroenterol 2023; 58:1271-1279. [PMID: 37291889 DOI: 10.1080/00365521.2023.2220858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 05/29/2023] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND METHODS We examined in NORDCAN database how the annual age group-specific incidence rates (IR) of gastric cancer (GCA), and correspondingly the GCA risk, have declined in Finland during the twentieth century, and whether this decline corresponds to a decrease in the cohort-specific prevalence rate of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) gastritis that is considered an important precancerous risk condition for GCA. RESULTS In modelling with partial least squares regression (PLSR), the logarithmically transformed IRs (ln(IR) of GCA were well explained with age and birth cohort as explanatory model variables. By considering the observed (actual) and the PLSR-modelled IRs, the IR of GCA (and the risk of GCA) has decreased gradually in Finland from 1900 onward, cohort by cohort. By prediction of the future with PLSR, the IRs of GCA will be markedly lower in all cohorts during the twenty-first century than in the twentieth century. By PLSR modelling, less than 10 GCA cases per 100,000 people are predicted to appear annually in cohorts (generations) born at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, even when these people will be 60-80 years old in the years 2060-2070. CONCLUSIONS The IR of GCA and GCA risk progressively declined by cohort in Finland during the whole twentieth century. This decline corresponds in extent and time window to earlier observations in the decline of the prevalence rate of Hp gastritis in the same birth cohorts and supports the hypothesis of the role of Hp gastritis as an important risk condition of GCA.

Abstract
This meta-analysis examined the surgical management of older patients (>80 years) with gastric cancer, who were often excluded from randomized controlled trials. We analyzed 23 retrospective cohort studies involving 18,372 patients and found that older patients had a higher in-hospital mortality rate (relative risk [RR], 3.23; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.46-7.17; P<0.01) and more post-operative complications (RR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.19-1.56; P<0.01) than did younger patients. However, the surgical complications were similar between the two groups. Older patients were more likely to undergo less extensive lymph node dissection and longer hospital stays. Although older patients had statistically significant post-operative medical complications, they were not deprived of surgery for gastric cancer. The comorbidities and potential risks of post-operative complications should be carefully evaluated in older patients, highlighting the importance of careful patient selection. Overall, this meta-analysis provides recommendations for the surgical management of older patients with gastric cancer. Careful patient selection and evaluation of comorbidities should be performed to minimize the risk of post-operative complications in older patients, while recognizing that they should not be deprived of surgery for gastric cancer.

Abstract
Background Cisplatin (CDDP) is of importance in cancer treatment and widely used in advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, its clinical usage is limited due to its resistance, and the regulatory mechanism of CDDP resistance in GC has not yet been fully elucidated. In this study, we first conducted a comprehensive study to investigate the role of MFAP2 through bioinformatics analysis. Methods The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases were applied to downloadgene expression data and clinicopathologic data, and the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were further analyzed. Then, Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis and survival analysis were conducted. Furthermore, according to the clinicopathological characteristics of TCGA, clinical correlation analysis was conducted, and a receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was plotted. Results We revealed that FAP, INHBA and MFAP2 were good diagnostic factors of GC. However, the mechanism of MFAP2 in GC remains elusive, especially in the aspect of chemotherapy resistance. We developed the CDDP-resistant cell line, and found that MFAP2 was upregulated in CDDP-resistant cells, and MFAP2-knockdown improved CDDP sensitivity. Finally, we found that MFAP2 enhanced CDDP resistance by inducing autophagy in drug-resistant cell lines. Conclusions The above results suggested that MFAP2 could affect the chemotherapy resistance by altering the level of autophagy in GC patients as a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Background The incidence of stomach cancer (SC) is declining in most countries in the world, potentially associated with increases in the human development index (HDI). This study was conducted to characterise the incidence and trends of SC in the Brazilian population and its correlations with HDI components: longevity, education and income. Methods Data on incidence of SC from Population-based cancer registries (PBCR) in Brazil during the period 1988-2017 were extracted from the Instituto Nacional de Câncer. Incidence rates were estimated for each PBCR in the same calendar period. Trends were analysed using the Joinpoint Regression Program, and correlations with HDI components (longevity, education and income) were examined using the Pearson test. Results SC incidence rates in Brazil ranged from 22 to 89/100,000 among men and from 8 to 44/100,000 among women. The highest incidence rates for men and women occurred in northern Brazil. The SC incidence is stable in most of the capitals of the northern and northeast parts of the country, with reductions for both sexes in the South, Southeastern and Midwest. There was an inverse correlation of SC incidence rates for women with the components of HDI education (p = 0.038) and longevity (p = 0.012). For men, the inverse correlation occurred for the longevity HDI (p = 0.013). Conclusion The improvement of HDIs in Brazil during the study period may have contributed to the stability of SC incidence but was not sufficient to reduce the overall SC incidence in the whole country. To better understand SC incidence in Brazil, efforts should be made towards ensuring that incidence data is recorded by PBCRs promptly.

Abstract
Background Monitoring the transmission patterns of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in a population is fundamental for identifying the key population and designing prevention interventions. In the present study, we aimed to estimate the gender disparities in HIV incidence and the age, period, and cohort effects on the incidence of HIV in India for identifying the predictors that might have led to changes in the last three decades. Data and methods This study utilizes data from the Global Burden of Disease Study for the period 1990-2019. The joinpoint regression analysis was employed to identify the magnitude of the changes in age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) of HIV. The average annual percentage changes in the incidence were computed, and the age-period-cohort analysis was performed. Results A decreasing trend in the overall estimates of age-standardized HIV incidence rates were observed in the period 1990-2019. The joinpoint regression analysis showed that the age-standardized incidence significantly declined from its peak in 1997 to 2019 (38.0 and 27.6 among males and females per 100,000 in 1997 to 5.4 and 4.6, respectively, in 2019). The APC was estimated to be 2.12 among males and 1.24 among females for the period 1990-2019. In recent years, although the gender gap in HIV incidence has reduced, females were observed to bear a proportionately higher burden of HIV incidence. Age effect showed a decline in HIV incidence by 91.1 and 70.1% among males and females aged between 15-19 years and 75-79 years. During the entire period from 1990-1994 to 2015-2019, the RR of HIV incidence decreased by 36.2 and 33.7% among males and females, respectively. Conclusion India is experiencing a decline in new HIV infections in recent years. However, the decline is steeper for males than for females. Findings highlight the necessity of providing older women and young women at risk with effective HIV prevention. This study emphasizes the need for large-scale HIV primary prevention efforts for teenage girls and young women.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is defined as the primary epithelial malignancy derived from the stomach, and it is a complicated and heterogeneous disease with multiple risk factors. Despite its overall declining trend of incidence and mortality in various countries over the past few decades, GC remains the fifth most common malignancy and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death globally. Although the global burden of GC has shown a significant downward trend, it remains severe in certain areas, such as Asia. GC ranks third in incidence and mortality among all cancer types in China, and it accounts for nearly 44.0% and 48.6% of new GC cases and GC-related deaths in the world, respectively. The regional differences in GC incidence and mortality are obvious, and annual new cases and deaths are increasing rapidly in some developing regions. Therefore, early preventive and screening strategies for GC are urgently needed. The clinical efficacies of conventional treatments for GC are limited, and the developing understanding of GC pathogenesis has increased the demand for new therapeutic regimens, including immune checkpoint inhibitors, cell immunotherapy and cancer vaccines. The present review describes the epidemiology of GC worldwide, especially in China, summarizes its risk and prognostic factors, and focuses on novel immunotherapies to develop therapeutic strategies for the management of GC patients.

BACKGROUND Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common causes of cancer-related fatalities worldwide, and its progression is associated with RNA modifications. Here, using RNA modification-related genes (RNAMRGs), we aimed to construct a prognostic model for patients with GC. METHODS Based on RNAMRGs, RNA modification scores (RNAMSs) were obtained for GC samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas and were divided into high- and low-RNAMS groups. Differential analysis and weighted correlation network analysis were performed for the differential expressed genes (DEGs) to obtain the key genes. Next, univariate Cox regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to obtain the model. According to the model risk score, samples were divided into high- and low-risk groups. Enrichment analysis and immunoassays were performed for the DEGs in these groups. Four external datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus data base were used to test the accuracy of the predictive model. RESULTS We identified SELP and CST2 as key DEGs, which were used to generate the predictive model. The high-risk group had a worse prognosis compared to the low-risk group (p < 0.05). Enrichment analysis and immunoassays revealed that 144 DEGs related to immune cell infiltration were associated with the Wnt signaling pathway and included hub genes such as ELN. Overall mutation levels, tumor mutation burden, and microsatellite instability were lower, but tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion scores were greater (p < 0.05) in the high-risk group than in the low-risk group. The validation results showed that the prediction model score can accurately predict the prognosis of GC patients. Finally, a nomogram was constructed using the risk score combined with the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with GC. CONCLUSION This risk score from the prediction model related to the tumor microenvironment and immunotherapy could accurately predict the overall survival of GC patients.

Abstract
This study explored the promoting effect of oxidative stress-induced growth inhibitor family member 2(OSGIN2) on gastric cancer (GC) through public databases and in vitro experiments. The potential relationship between OSGIN2 expression, prognosis, functional enrichment of associated differential genes, immune infiltration, and mutational information in gastric cancer were comprehensively investigated using bioinformatics analysis. OSGIN2 was knocked down using small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection for subsequent cell function testing. The results showed that gastric carcinoma cells and tissues contained high levels of OSGIN2, which was associated with a poor prognosis for GC patients. It was important in the cell cycle, autophagy, etc., and was related to a variety of tumor-related signal pathways. Knockdown of OSGIN2 inhibited tumor cell proliferation and contributed to cell cycle arrest. It was also correlated with tumor immune infiltrating cells (TILs), affecting antitumor immune function. Our analysis highlights that OSING2, as a new biomarker, has diagnostic and prognostic value in gastric cancer and is a potentially effective target in GC treatment.

Abstract
Background/Aims The incidence and prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) shows sex difference. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on GC survival depending on sex. Methods The sex, age, location, histology, TNM stages, BMI, and survival were analyzed in GC patients from May 2003 to February 2020 at the Seoul National University Bundang Hospital. Results Among 14,688 patients, there were twice as many males (66.6%) as females (33.4%). However, under age 40 years, females (8.6%) were more prevalent than males (3.1%). Cardia GC in males showed a U-shaped distribution for underweight (9.6%), normal (6.4%), overweight (6.1%), obesity (5.6%), and severe obesity (9.3%) but not in females (p=0.003). Females showed decreased proportion of diffuse-type GC regarding BMI (underweight [59.9%], normal [56.8%], overweight [49.5%], obesity [44.8%], and severe obesity [41.7%]), but males did not (p<0.001). Both sexes had the worst prognosis in the underweight group (p<0.001), and the higher BMI, the better prognosis in males, but not females. Sex differences in prognosis according to BMI tended to be more prominent in males than in females in subgroup analysis of TNM stages I, II, and III and the operative treatment group. Conclusions GC-specific survival was affected by BMI in a sex-dependent manner. These differences may be related to genetic, and environmental, hormonal factors; body composition; and muscle mass (Trial registration number: NCT04973631).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The expression, activity, and functional role of E-cadherin in adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) are unclear. In this research, we evaluated the expression of E-cadherin in AEG, as well as its clinicopathological significance and prognostic value. METHODS A total of 65 AEG samples and 10 normal paracancerous tissues undergoing AEG resection in thoracic surgery were collected. The samples were immunohistochemically examined for expression levels of E-cadherin. The Chi-square test was used to determine if E-cadherin expression correlated with the clinicopathological features of AEG patients. The link between clinicopathological features and 5-year survival rates was investigated using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and multifactorial Cox regression analysis. RESULTS In AEG tissues, E-cadherin expression was considerably reduced. Differentiation grade ( P = 0.013), infiltration depth ( P = 0.033), and clinicopathological stage ( P = 0.045) were substantially linked to the level of E-cadherin expression. Five-year survival rates of AEG patients were affected by E-cadherin expression ( P = 0.037), tumor differentiation ( P = 0.010), lymph node metastasis ( P < 0.001), and clinicopathological stage ( P = 0.037). Tumor differentiation ( P = 0.033) and lymph node metastasis ( P = 0.001) were independent risk factors for shorter overall survival. CONCLUSION E-cadherin expression in AEG was significantly decreased, which was strongly related to tumor differentiation, infiltration, and clinicopathological stage. An E-cadherin deficiency would lead to poor prognosis in AEG patients. E-cadherin may play a crucial role in AEG invasion and metastasis. Low expression of E-cadherin may be a potential early biomarker and overall survival predictor for AEG patients.

JMIR Public Health Surveill 2023; 9:e43651. [PMID: 36800235 PMCID: PMC9984998 DOI: 10.2196/43651] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 30.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The global burden of lung cancer (LC) is increasing. Quantitative projections of the future LC burden in different world regions could help optimize the allocation of resources and provide a benchmark for evaluating LC prevention and control interventions. OBJECTIVE We aimed to predict the future incidence of LC in 40 countries by 2035, with an emphasis on country- and sex-specific disparities. METHODS Data on LC incidence from 1978 to 2012 were extracted from 126 cancer registries of 40 countries in Cancer Incidence in Five Continents Volumes V-XI and used for the projection. Age-standardized incidence rates (ASRs) per 100,000 person-years and the number of incident cases were predicted through 2035, using the NORDPRED age-period-cohort model. RESULTS Global ASRs of the 40 studied countries were predicted to decrease by 23% (8.2/35.8) among males, from 35.8 per 100,000 person-years in 2010 to 27.6 in 2035, and increase by 2% (0.3/16.8) among females, from 16.8 in 2010 to 17.1 in 2035. The ASRs of LC among females are projected to continue increasing dramatically in most countries by 2035, with peaks after the 2020s in most European, Eastern Asian, and Oceanian countries, whereas the ASRs among males will continue to decline in almost all countries. The ASRs among females are predicted to almost reach those among males in Ireland, Norway, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Canada, the United States, and New Zealand in 2025 and in Slovenia in 2035 and even surpass those among males in Denmark in 2020 and in Brazil and Colombia in 2025. In 2035, the highest ASRs are projected to occur among males in Belarus (49.3) and among females in Denmark (36.8). The number of new cases in 40 countries is predicted to increase by 65.32% (858,000/1,314,000), from 1.31 million in 2010 to 2.17 million in 2035. China will have the largest number of new cases. CONCLUSIONS LC incidence is expected to continue to increase through 2035 in most countries, making LC a major public health challenge worldwide. The ongoing transition in the epidemiology of LC highlights the need for resource redistribution and improved LC control measures to reduce future LC burden worldwide.

Abstract
Background Hsa_circ_0072309 has been identified as a tumor suppressor in several carcinomas. However, its precise role in gastric cancer (GC) remains largely unknown. This study was aimed to explore the precise role of Hsa_circ_0072309 in GC. Methods The transcriptional and clinical data of stomach adenocarcinoma were downloaded using the University of California SantaCruz (UCSC) Xena browser. The circular RNA (circRNA) datasets were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The expression profile and survival analysis of differentially expressed micro RNAs (DEMIs) and differentially expressed messenger RNAs (DEMs) were performed. Correlations between the expression and immune infiltration of the DEMS were studied. Additionally, the expression of hsa_circ_0072309 in GC tissues and cell lines were validated, and the relationship between its expression and clinical features was investigated. Gain- and loss-of function experiments and molecular interaction experiments were also conducted. Results Overall, 7 differentially expressed circRNAs, 13 DEMIs, and 17 DEMs were screened. Two DEMIs (hsa_miR-34a-3p and hsa_miR-326) and five DEMs (C7, MARCKSL1, UBE2T, OLR1, and HOXC11) showed significant differences in the high- and low-risk groups. The most significantly enriched Gene Ontology terms were the circadian regulation of gene expression and protein binding. The most significantly enriched Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways were the PI3K-Akt and Ras signal pathways. Additionally, six genes were significantly correlated with immune infiltration. The real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) results revealed a significant downregulation of hsa_circ_0072309 in GC tissues related to tumor size, vascular invasion, and lymph node metastasis. A hsa_circ_0072309 overexpression suppressed whereas a hsa_circ_0072309 knockdown promoted GC cells proliferation and migration in vitro; in addition, hsa_circ_0072309 could directly bind to has-miR-34a-3p and has-miR-330-5p. Conclusions Hsa_circ_0072309 is a potential diagnostic biomarker for GC, and complement component 7 may be a tumor suppressor. These may potentially predict the prognosis of patients with GC and may become new therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Autoimmune metaplastic atrophic gastritis (AMAG) is associated with an increased risk of gastric neoplasms. This study aimed to systematically analyze the incidence rate of gastric cancer (GC), low-grade dysplasia (LGD) and type-1 gastric neuroendocrine tumor (gNETs) development in AMAG adults. Studies on AMAG patients reporting the incidence of gastric neoplasms was identified through a systematic search in PUBMED and EMBASE. Study quality was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute quality assessment tool. Incidence rates of GC, LGD and type-1 gNETs were examined by meta-analysis. Thirteen studies met eligibility criteria. Incidence rate of gastric cancer calculated from the pooled data was 0.14% per person-year in both single-center studies and national registration studies. Meta-analysis showed a relative risk of 11.05 (95% CI: 6.39-19.11) for gastric cancer development in AMAG patients. The calculated pooled gastric LGD and type-1 gNETs incidence rates were 0.52% and 0.83% per person-year, respectively. As for experience from our center, we presented three distinctive cases of gastric neoplasm arising from the background of AMAG. This study underscores the potential for malignant transformation of precancerous lesions and reiterates the importance of careful esophagogastroduodenoscopy screening.

Abstract
Background Multifarious factors have a causal relationship with gastric cancer (GC) development. We conducted a comprehensive analysis to evaluate the strength of the evidence examining non-genetic risk factors for gastric cancer. Methods PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searched from inception to November 10, 2021 to identify meta-analyses of observational studies examining the association between environmental factors and GC risk. For each meta-analysis, the random effect size, 95% confidence interval, heterogeneity among studies, and evidence of publication bias were assessed; moreover, the evidence was graded using predefined criteria, and the methodological quality was evaluated using AMSTAR 2. Results A total of 137 associations were examined in 76 articles. Among these meta-analyses, 93 associations yielded significant estimates (p < 0.05). Only 10 associations had strong epidemiologic evidence, including 2 risk factors (waist circumference and bacon), and 8 protective factors (dietary total antioxidant capacity, vegetable fat, cruciferous vegetable, cabbage, total vitamin, vitamin A, vitamin C, and years of fertility); 26 associations had moderate quality of evidence; and the remaining 57 associations were rated as weak. Ninety-four (68.61%) associations showed significant heterogeneity. Twenty-five (18.25%) associations demonstrated publication bias. Conclusions In this comprehensive analysis, multiple associations were found between environmental factors and GC with varying levels of evidence. Healthy dietary habits and lifestyle patterns could reduce the risk for GC. However, further high-quality prospective studies are still necessary to draw more definitive conclusions.

Abstract
Background Stomach cancer is a significant health problem in many countries. But healthcare needs of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) stomach cancer patients have been historically neglected. An accurate appraisal of the burden of AYA stomach cancer is crucial to formulating effective preventive strategies. In this study, we report the most recent estimates of AYA stomach cancer burden concerning socio-demographic index (SDI) in 204 countries and territories between 1990 and 2019. Methods Estimates from the Global Burden of Disease study 2019 were used to analyze incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) due to AYA stomach cancer at global, regional, and national levels. Association between AYA stomach cancer burden and SDI were investigated. All estimates are reported as absolute numbers and age-standardized rates, which were standardized to the GBD world population and reported per 100,000 population. Results In 2019, there were 49,000 incident cases, 27,895 deaths, and 1.57 million DALYs due to AYA stomach cancer globally. The highest age-standardized incidence rate occurred in East Asia [2.42 (women) and 4.71 (men) per 100,000 person-years] and high-income Asia Pacific [3.16 (women) and 2.61 (men) per 100,000 person-years]. Age-standardized death [1.53 (women) and 2.65 (men) per 100,000 person-years] and DALY [150.96 (women) and 87.13 (men) per 100,000 person-years] rates were highest in Oceania. Compared with 1990, in 2019 more than 1,075 more incident cases of AYA stomach cancer were estimated with a decrease of 7,784 deaths. Despite the increase in absolute number of incident cases, the worldwide age-standardized rates of AYA stomach cancer (incidence, deaths, and DALYs) have declined since 1990. The drop in the disease burden was associated with an improved SDI. Globally, 24.41% of the age-standardized DALYs were attributable to a high-sodium diet in both sexes combined, and 0.57% of the age-standardized DALYs were attributable to smoking in men. Conclusion The global burden of AYA stomach cancer is substantial, especially in developing regions. Capacity-building activities for AYA stomach cancer will benefit the younger generation and population health worldwide.

Cancer 2023; 129:98-106. [PMID: 36284481 DOI: 10.1002/cncr.34511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Revised: 09/10/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent data have shown divergent trends in gastric cancer (GC) incidence between China and Japan; however, the cause for has not been explored. METHODS We retrieved GC incidence data from 1990 to 2019 from the Global Burden of Disease study, stratified by sex for both countries. We analyzed annual average percentage change (AAPC) via a joinpoint regression model and estimated the effects of age, period, and cohort via the age-period-cohort model. RESULTS The age-standardized incidence rate trends for GC decreased in both countries and both sexes, but the reduction was more pronounced in Japan because the AAPC for Japanese males (AAPC = -2.65%; 95% CI, -2.98 to -2.32) was eight times greater than that of Chinese males (AAPC = -0.30%; 95% CI, -0.5 to -0.09). The age and cohort effects on the trend are similar in both countries: the risk of GC incidence increased with age among the Chinese and the Japanese but was lower among younger birth cohorts. The two countries showed contrasting trends over the study period; although the risk of GC rapidly decreased for Japanese males and females, it increased by twofold among Chinese males. CONCLUSIONS The period effect is the main reason for the divergent trends in age-standardized incidence rate for GC in China and Japan. By comparing national cancer control programs in both countries, we concluded that countries with a high prevalence of GC, such as China, can learn from Japan's experience in controlling GC by actively conducting national population screening, which is expected to facilitate both prevention and treatment of GC. LAY SUMMARY More than one-half of all new gastric cancer (GC) worldwide occur in China and Japan, but the reasons for the different incidence trends have not been thoroughly analyzed. Analysis using the age-period-cohort model confirmed that the cohort effect was the main reason for the decline in age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) for GC and that the period effect may be the main reason for the divergent trends in gastric cancer ASIR in China and Japan.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the risk of malignancy in Korean patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) receiving Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKis) compared with tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFis). METHODS A retrospective cohort of patients with RA initiating their first JAKi or TNFi was established using the Korean National Health Insurance database between 2015 and 2019. They were followed up from treatment initiation to the occurrence of malignancy, drug discontinuation, death or until December 2019. Baseline features of the patients were balanced through inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) using a propensity score. A Cox proportional hazard model was established to estimate the HR for malignancy risk in JAKi users compared with TNFi users. RESULTS A total of 4929 patients (1064 JAKi-treated and 3865 TNFi-treated patients) were included, and the observation periods were 1288.6 person-years (PYs) for JAKi users and 6823.8 PYs for TNFi users. The incidence rates of overall malignancy were 0.54 per 100 PYs (95% CI 0.26 to 1.14) in JAKi users and 0.85 per 100 PYs (95% CI 0.66 to 1.10) in TNFi users. In IPTW analysis with a balanced sample (4101 JAKi-treated and 5131 TNFi-treated patients), HR was 0.83 (95% CI 0.55 to 1.27) for overall malignancy: 0.77 (95% CI 0.50 to 1.19) for solid malignancy and 2.86 (95% CI 0.41 to 20.00) for haematological malignancy. CONCLUSION Malignancy risk in Korean patients with RA was not increased with JAKi use compared with TNFi use.

Abstract
The encoding product of Chordin-like 2 (CHRDL2) is a member of the chordin family of proteins, which has been shown to be aberrantly expressed in several types of solid tumors. The regulatory underlying mechanisms of CHRDL2, however, remain poorly understood in gastric cancer (GC). In the present study, we determined that CHRDL2 was abnormally upregulated in human gastric cancer tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. We also showed that CHRDL2 was positively associated with T stage, the pathological stage, distant metastasis, and poor patient prognosis. Furthermore, the serum level of CHRDL2 was obviously higher in GC patients than normal people, and is positively correlated with later TNM stage, deeper T stage, later N stage and poorer differentiation. Moreover, we verified that overexpressing CHRDL2 promoted the proliferation and cell cycle transition of GC cells both in vitro and in vivo, whereas the opposite results were observed in CHRDL2-depleted cells. In addition, the phosphorylation levels of Yes-associated protein (YAP), transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) and the total levels MST2 were decreased in CHRDL2 overexpressing cells. Consistent with previous findings, we observed the converse results in CHRDL2-silenced GC cells. Additionally, knockdown of YAP and overexpression of STK3 (MST2) could reverse the effects of CHRDL2 overexpression-induced proliferation of GC cells in vitro. Taken together, CHRDL2 plays a key role by activating the YAP/TAZ pathway in gastric cancer. Therefore, CHRDL2 could serve as a potential therapeutic tool for the treatment of gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND More recent birth cohorts are at a higher depression risk than cohorts born in the early 20th century. We aimed to investigate to what extent changes in alcohol consumption, smoking, physical activity, and obesity contribute to these birth cohort variations. METHODS We analyzed panel data from US adults born 1916-1966 enrolled in the Health and Retirement Study (N = 163,760 person-years). We performed a counterfactual decomposition analysis by combining age-period-cohort models with g-computation. We thereby compared the predicted probability of elevated depressive symptoms (CES-D 8 score ≥3) in the natural course to a counterfactual scenario where all birth cohorts had the health behaviors of the 1945 birth cohort. We stratified analyses by sex and race-ethnicity. RESULTS We estimated that depression risk of the 1916-1949 and 1950-1966 birth cohort would be on average 2.0% (-2.3 to -1.7) and 0.5% (-0.9 to -0.1) higher with the alcohol consumption levels of the 1945 cohort. In the counterfactual with the 1945 BMI distribution, depression risk is on average 2.1% (1.8 to 2.4) higher for the 1916-1940 cohorts and 1.8% (-2.2 to -1.5) lower for the 1950-1966 cohorts. We find no cohort variations in depression risk for smoking and physical activity. The contribution of alcohol is more pronounced for Whites than for other race-ethnicity groups, and the contribution of BMI more pronounced for women than for men. CONCLUSION Increased obesity levels were associated with exacerbated depression risk in recent birth cohorts in the United States, while drinking patterns only played a minor role.

Abstract
Background An up-to-date analysis of gastric cancer mortality among Hispanic/Latino populations is required for estimating disease burden and assessing the effectiveness of clinical and preventive strategies. Methods We retrieved gastric cancer deaths between 1997 and 2017 (as available) from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (United States Hispanics) and the World Health Organization databases (Puerto Rico, 16 Latin American and Caribbean countries). Joinpoint regression analysis was used to examine trends in age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR; per 100 000 person-years) and calculate average annual percent changes (AAPCs) by country (or territory), age group (25-49 and ≥50 years), and sex. Trends were compared to assess slope parallelism. Findings In 2017, Chile (31·8), Colombia (24·3) and Costa Rica (24·3) had the highest ASMR of gastric cancer for men, while Guatemala (17·2), Peru (13·5), and Costa Rica (13·3) had the highest ASMR for women. Small-to-moderate mortality declines (AAPCs ranged -4 to -0.5%) were observed between 1997 and 2017. In almost all countries, trends decreased among individuals aged ≥50 years. However, age-specific trends were not parallel (p-values <0.05) in Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, the United States, and Venezuela for both men and women, and in five additional countries for only women; with a few countries showing stable or slightly increasing trends for individuals aged 25-49 years. Interpretation Overall gastric cancer mortality rates in Hispanics/Latinos declined in the last two decades. However, there was a notable variation in trends by country, sex, and age group. Continued and targeted prevention efforts are needed to reduce the disease burden in these vulnerable populations.

Abstract
Background: Pyroptosis is a recently identified mode of programmed inflammatory cell death that has remarkable implications for cancer development. lncRNAs can be involved in cellular regulation through various pathways and play a critical role in gastric cancer (GC). However, pyroptosis -related lncRNAs (PRlncRNAs) have been rarely studied in GC. Methods: Pyroptosis-related gene were abstracted from the literature and GSEA Molecular Signatures data resource. PRlncRNAs were obtained using co-expression analysis. LASSO Cox regression assessment was employed to build a risk model. Kaplan-Meier (KM), univariate along with multivariate Cox regression analysis were adopted to verify the predictive efficiency of the risk model in terms of prognosis. qRT-PCR was adopted to validate the expression of PRlncRNAs in GC tissues. In addition, immune cell infiltration assessment and ESTIMATE score evaluation were adopted for assessing the relationship of the risk model with the tumor immune microenvironment (TME). Finally, immune checkpoint gene association analysis and chemotherapy drug sensitivity analysis were implemented to assess the worthiness of our risk model in immunotherapy and chemotherapy of GC. Results: We identified 3 key PRlncRNAs (PVT1, CYMP-AS1 and AC017076.1) and testified the difference of their expression levels in GC tumor tissues and neighboring non-malignant tissues (p < 0.05). PRlncRNAs risk model was able to successfully estimate the prognosis of GC patients, and lower rate of survival was seen in the high-GC risk group relative to the low-GC risk group (p < 0.001). Other digestive system tumors such as pancreatic cancer further validated our risk model. There was a dramatic difference in TMB level between high-GC and low-GC risk groups (p < 0.001). Immune cell infiltration analysis and ESTIMATE score evaluation demonstrated that the risk model can be adopted as an indicator of TME status. Besides, the expressions of immunodetection site genes in different risk groups were remarkably different (CTLA-4 (r = −0.14, p = 0.010), VISTA (r = 0.15, p = 0.005), and B7-H3 (r = 0.14, p = 0.009)). PRlncRNAs risk model was able to effectively establish a connection with the sensitivity of chemotherapeutic agents. Conclusion: The 3 PRlncRNAs identified in this study could be utilized to predict disease outcome in GC patients. It may also be a potential therapeutic target in GC therapy, including immunotherapy and chemotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The intent of this review is to describe new advances in endoscopic approaches to surveillance and management of gastric cancer. RECENT FINDINGS There are new endoscopic techniques and approaches that have improved the detection of gastric cancer, including narrow band imaging, confocal laser endocytomicroscopy and magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy. This article highlights the role of endoscopic submucosal dissection in the treatment of focal and diffuse gastric dysplasia and early gastric cancer with a discussion of indications, complications and outcomes. We review several recent guidelines addressing the surveillance strategies for individuals at high-risk for developing gastric cancer, such as those with atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia, how gastric dysplasia and early gastric cancer can be endoscopically managed, and recommended surveillance after endoscopic intervention. SUMMARY Endoscopic approaches are evolving rapidly that will improve detection of dysplasia and early gastric cancer in high-risk individuals. Surveillance guidelines from various international societies reflect differences in local experience and prevalence of gastric cancer. Endoscopic submucosal dissection is now widely accepted as a first-line approach to early gastric cancers that can be resected en-bloc .

Abstract
Lip and oral cavity cancer is a common malignancy faced by many developing countries, and the disease burden is high in China. This study explored this cancer burden and its risk factors using data from China in the GBD 2019, along with predicting the incidence trends in 2020-2049. Data on age-standardized rates (ASR), incidence, death and disability-adjusted life years (DALY), by sex, age and risk factors were collected from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME). Joinpoint regression and Age-Period-Cohort (APC) models were selected to analyze the epidemic trend of this cancer in China, and descriptive analysis was used for the time trend and age distribution of risk factors. The Bayesian APC model was selected to foresee the incidence trend in 2020-2049. This cancer burden was found to be in an upward trend in China in 1990-2019. The upward trend was more pronounced among men than among women. These cancer deaths and DALYs are overwhelmingly attributable to smoking and drinking. On APC analysis, the younger generation in China demonstrated a lower cancer risk. In 2049, the incidence of this cancer is projected to be 3.99/100,000, 6.07/100,000, 7.37/100,000, 10.49/100,000, 14.82/100,000, 19.19/100,000, 20.71/100,000, 23.64/100,000, 16.42/100,000 and 9.91/100,000 among those aged 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, 85-89 and over 95 years, respectively. Disease control policies and early screening should focus on men and the elderly and target different risk factors.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the incidence trend of the five main causes of cancer, according to sex and age, in Greater Cuiabá, in the state of Mato Grosso, from 2000 to 2016. METHODS Incidence information was obtained from the Population-Based Cancer Registry, referring to the municipalities Cuiabá and Várzea Grande (RCBP - Cuiabá). Crude incidence rates were calculated and the five main types of cancer were selected: for males, prostate (C61), lung (C33-34), colorectal (C18-21), stomach (C16) and oral cavity cancer (C00-10); and for females, breast (C50), cervix (C53), colorectal (C18-21), lung (C33-34) and thyroid gland cancer (C73). Age-adjusted rates were calculated by the direct method, using the world population as reference. Trends were estimated using the Joinpoint method and evaluated by Annual Percent Change (APC) and Average Annual Percent Change (AAPC). The Joinpoint Regression Program software, version 8.3.6.1, was used. RESULTS During the period, there was a decreasing trend of lung (AAPC=-2.2; 95%CI -4.0--0.3) and stomach cancer (AAPC=-5.2; 95%CI -7.7--2.6) in men, and of cervix cancer (AAPC=-7.2; 95%CI -9.0--5.3) in women, and increasing for breast (AAPC=2.8; 95%CI 0.2-5.5) and thyroid cancer (AAPC=8.3; 95%CI 4.6-12.2). CONCLUSION In Greater Cuiabá, we found a downward incidence trend among elderly men for prostate, lung and stomach cancer. Women are affected at younger age groups, with an upward trend for breast cancer and downward trend for cervix cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND : Increased awareness of gastric cancer risk, easy access to upper endoscopy, and high definition endoscopes with virtual chromoendoscopy may have led to the increase in early diagnosis of gastric cancer observed in recent years in Europe, which may be associated with improved survival. Currently, no data exist on the impact of early diagnosis on survival at a populational level in Europe. Our aim was to assess gastric cancer incidence, early diagnosis, and survival in northwestern and southern European countries with a low-to-moderate incidence of gastric cancer. METHODS : Data on 41 138 gastric cancers diagnosed in 2007-2016 were retrieved from national cancer registries of Belgium, the Netherlands, and northern Portugal. Age-standardized incidence and mortality rates were assessed and expressed per 100 000 person-years. Early diagnosis was defined as T1 tumors. Net survival estimates for 2007-2011 vs. 2012-2016 were compared. RESULTS : Age-standardized incidence and mortality decreased over time in Belgium, northern Portugal, and the Netherlands (relative incidence decrease 8.6 %, 4.5 %, and 46.8 %, respectively; relative mortality decrease 22.0 %, 30.9 %, and 50.0 %, respectively). Early gastric cancer diagnosis increased over time for all countries. Net 1-year survival improved significantly between the two time periods in all countries, and at 5 years in Belgium and Portugal. CONCLUSIONS : This is the first study comparing trends (2007-2016) in gastric cancer incidence and mortality in some European countries. We found an increasing proportion of T1 gastric cancers and a decrease in age-standardized mortality over time, supporting the use of secondary prevention strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several systematic reviews and meta-analyses evaluated the associations between dietary factors and the incidence of gastric cancer (GC). OBJECTIVES To evaluate the strength and validity of existing evidence, we conducted an umbrella review of published systematic reviews and meta-analyses that investigated the association between diets and GC incidence. METHODS We searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases for systematic reviews and meta-analyses of prospective cohort studies investigating the association between dietary factors and GC risk. For each association, we recalculated the adjusted summary estimates with their 95% confidence interval (CI) and 95% prediction interval (PI) using a random-effects model. We used the I2 statistic and Egger's test to assess heterogeneity and small-study effects, respectively. We also assessed the methodological quality of each study and the quality of evidence. RESULTS Finally, we identified 16 meta-analyses that described 57 associations in this umbrella review. Of the 57 associations, eight were statistically significant using random-effects, thirteen demonstrated substantial heterogeneity between studies (I2 > 50%), and three found small-study effects. The methodological quality of meta-analyses was classified as critically low for two (13%), low for thirteen (81%), and only one (6%) was rated as high confidence. Quality of evidence was rated high for a positive association for GC incidence with a higher intake of total alcohol (RR = 1.19, 95% CI 1.06-1.34) and moderate-quality evidence to support that increased processed meat consumption can increase GC incidence. Three associations (total fruit, vitamin E, and carotenoids) were determined to be supported by low-quality evidence, and two (pickled vegetables/foods and citrus fruit) were supported by very low-quality. CONCLUSIONS Our findings support the dietary recommendations for preventative GC, emphasizing lower intake of alcohol and foods preserved by salting. New evidence suggests a possible role for total fruit, citrus fruit, carotenoids, and vitamin E. More research is needed on diets with lower quality evidence. REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42021255115.

Abstract
Introducción. A nivel mundial los tumores gastrointestinales tienen un impacto importante en la mortalidad y se asocian a diferentes factores, entre ellos regionales y sociodemográficos. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir la variación en el tiempo del cáncer gastrointestinal en una población del centro occidente de Colombia, dada su alta incidencia y desenlace frecuentemente fatal.
Métodos. Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo observacional con muestreo no probabilístico en un tiempo de seis años. Se seleccionaron pacientes diagnosticados con algún tipo de neoplasia del tracto digestivo, en un hospital de tercer nivel del centro occidente de Colombia.
Resultados. Se evaluaron un total de 1152 pacientes. Los tumores del tracto digestivo superior (esófago, unión esófago-gástrica y estómago) fueron los más frecuentes (44 %), seguidos de los tumores del tracto digestivo medio e inferior (intestino delgado, colon, recto y ano; 31 %) y de los tumores hepato-bilio-pancreáticos (25 %). La edad media de presentación fue 64,6 años, con una mayor frecuencia en el sexo masculino (51,6 %). El adenocarcinoma fue el tipo histológico más común.
Conclusión. Los resultados de este estudio muestran que los tumores gastrointestinales son una neoplasia frecuente en nuestro país, siendo los tumores gástricos los que se presentan con mayor prevalencia, seguidos de los tumores colorrectales y las neoplasias biliopancreáticas, las cuales se mantiene en el tiempo.

Abstract
Background To examine global patterns of gastric cancer in 2020 and the projected burden in 2040. Methods Data on primary gastric cancer were extracted from the GLOBOCAN database for the year 2020. Age-standardized incidence and mortality rates were calculated by sex, country, world region and level of human development index (HDI) for 185 countries. The predicted burden of incidence and mortality in 2040 was calculated based on demographic projections. Findings In total, ∼1.1 million new cases and 770,000 deaths of gastric cancer were estimated in 2020. Incidence rates were on average 2-fold higher in males than females (15.8 and 7.0 per 100,000, respectively) with variation across countries. Highest incidence rates were observed in Eastern Asia for both males and females (32.5 and 13.2, respectively); males residing in Japan (48.1), Mongolia (47.2) and Korea (39.7) had the highest rates in the world. Incidence was lowest in Africa with incidence rates < 5 per 100,000. Highest mortality rates were observed in Eastern Asia for both males (21.1) and females (8.8). A lower share of deaths was observed in very high HDI countries compared to medium and low HDI countries. The annual burden of gastric cancer is predicted to increase to ∼1.8 million new cases and ∼1.3 million deaths by 2040. Interpretation These estimates of the global burden of gastric cancer pinpoint countries and regions of high incidence and mortality in need of cancer control initiatives. Primary prevention through eradication of H. pylori and behavioural changes such as reducing salt intake, smoking, obesity, and alcohol, remains key in stomach cancer control. Funding No direct funding was received. All authors had access to the included study data and all authors agreed with the final decision to submit for publication.

Abstract
Despite a decline in incidence and mortality during the last decades, stomach cancer is one of the main health challenges worldwide. According to the GLOBOCAN 2020 estimates, stomach cancer caused approximately 800000 deaths (accounting for 7.7% of all cancer deaths), and ranks as the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in both genders combined. About 1.1 million new cases of stomach cancer were diagnosed in 2020 (accounting for 5.6% of all cancer cases). About 75% of all new cases and all deaths from stomach cancer are reported in Asia. Stomach cancer is one of the most lethal malignant tumors, with a five-year survival rate of around 20%. There are some well-established risk factors for stomach cancer: Helicobacter pylori infection, dietary factors, tobacco, obesity, and radiation. To date, the most important way of preventing stomach cancer is reduced exposure to risk factors, as well as screening and early detection. Further research on risk factors can help identify various opportunities for more effective prevention. Screening programs for stomach cancer have been implemented in a few countries, either as a national or opportunistic screening of high-risk individuals only. Generally, due to its high aggressiveness and heterogeneity, stomach cancer still remains a severe global health problem.
