Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a less invasive local treatment for diseases throughout the gastrointestinal tract. AIM To develop an integrated management protocol and analyze its effects on surgical outcomes and mental health of patients after ESD. METHODS The study population consisted of patients undergoing ESD before implementation of integrated management and those undergoing ESD by the same pool of surgeons after implementation of integrated management. RESULTS The management group exhibited shortened fasting time and length of hospital stay compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The management group exhibited a higher incidence rate of postoperative complications than the control group (3 cases vs 11 cases; P = 0.043). The management group exhibited a lower uncertainty score for disease knowledge compared to the control group 12 h after surgery (P < 0.05). The management group gave more scores on the domains of patient familiarity to the responsible nurses, professional skills of responsible nurses, and general evaluation compared to the control group. The management group had a higher total score of patient satisfaction towards the responsible nurses in term of health care than the control group (P < 0.01). The management group exhibited lower Self-Rating Anxiety Scale and Self-Rating Depression Scale scores compared to the control group 12 h after surgery (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION The study demonstrates that integrated management could improve surgical outcomes and mental health of patients undergoing ESD.

Early gastric cancer of young patients treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection: focusing on the different characteristics and prognosis of elderly patients. Surg Endosc 2024:10.1007/s00464-024-10981-x. [PMID: 38886228 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-024-10981-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND A small portion of patients are diagnosed with early gastric cancer (EGC) and undergo endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) at a young age. However, their clinical outcomes are rarely known. AIM We investigated to identify the feasibility and clinical outcomes of ESD for EGC focusing on young patients. METHODS We analyzed the clinical characteristics and outscomes of patients who had undergone ESD for the treatment of EGC at < 50 years of age. We enrolled patients who had been diagnosed with EGC and had undergone ESD between 2006 and 2020. We divided them by age as follows: ≤ 50 and > 50 years into the young age (YA) and other age (OA) groups, respectively. RESULTS Altogether, 1681 patients underwent ESD for EGC (YA group: 124 [7.4%], OA group: 1557 [92.6%]). The YA group had less severe atrophy and more undifferentiated (37.1% vs. 13.9%, P < 0.001) and diffuse type (25% vs. 7.7%, P < 0.001) histology. The curative resection rate was not significantly different between the groups. However, among 1075 patients who had achieved curative resection and had been followed-up for > 12 months, the YA group had a lower incidence of MGN (5.2% vs. 17.5%, P = 0.004) and MGC (2.6% vs. 10.9%, P = 0.019) than those exhibited by the OA group. The YA group was a significant negative predictor of MGN (odds ratio [OR]: 2.983, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.060-8.393, P = 0.038), and marginally negative predictor in MGC (OR: 3.909, 95% CI: 0.939-16.281, P = 0.061). CONCLUSION ESD is a favorable and effective therapeutic modality for EGC patients aged < 50 years, once curative resection is achieved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People with cancer who have completed treatment still experience negative effects, such as an increased risk of experiencing cancer-related pain. Psychological factors tend to influence cancer patients' ability to cope with pain in various dimensions. Although personal resources are an important factor in buffering total pain, still little is known about the intervening variables and underlying mechanisms. PURPOSE The current study examined the relationship between psychological flexibility, self-esteem, and total pain, while considering fear of recurrence, meaning-making, and coping as potential mediating factors. METHODS Adults (N = 304) who completed medical treatment (radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and combined therapy) participated in this study. They completed questionnaires measuring the aforementioned variables. Structural equation models were used to examine mediation effects. RESULTS Psychological flexibility, and partly self-esteem, were negatively related to the dimensions of total pain. However, to a large extent, these relationships were serially and parallelly mediated by fear of recurrence, meaning-making, and emotion-oriented coping. CONCLUSIONS Consistent with the meaning-making model, cognitive (meaning-making), and affective (fear of recurrence and emotional coping) factors may be potential mechanisms underlying the association between psychological flexibility, self-esteem, and total pain in posttreatment cancer patients. In this study, they tended to interact in the area of physiological and psychosocial experiences of cancer-related pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the digestive system in China. Few comprehensive practice guidelines for early gastric cancer in China are currently available. Therefore, we created the Chinese national clinical practice guideline for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of early gastric cancer. METHODS This clinical practice guideline (CPG) was developed in accordance with the World Health Organization's recommended process and with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) in assessing evidence quality. We used the Evidence to Decision framework to formulate clinical recommendations to minimize bias and increase transparency in the CPG development process. We used the Reporting Items for practice Guidelines in HealThcare (RIGHT) statement and the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II) as reporting and conduct guidelines to ensure completeness and transparency of the CPG. RESULTS This CPG contains 40 recommendations regarding the prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of early gastric cancer based on available clinical studies and guidelines. We provide recommendations for the timing of Helicobacter pylori eradication, screening populations for early gastric cancer, indications for endoscopic resection and surgical gastrectomy, follow-up interval after treatment, and other recommendations. CONCLUSIONS This CPG can lead to optimum care for patients and populations by providing up-to-date medical information. We intend this CPG for widespread adoption to increase the standard of prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of early gastric cancer; thereby, contributing to improving national health care and patient quality of life.

Long-term outcomes after endoscopic submucosal dissection for relative indication early gastric cancer in nonsurgical candidates. Gastrointest Endosc 2024:S0016-5107(24)00216-5. [PMID: 38580133 DOI: 10.1016/j.gie.2024.03.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is effective in treating early gastric cancer (EGC). Its role in patients with comorbidities along with more advanced disease is unknown. We sought to evaluate this in a large Western cohort. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent ESD for EGC in a single tertiary Western endoscopy center over 10 years were prospectively analyzed. The primary outcomes were long-term overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) up to 5 years. Secondary outcomes were efficacy and serious adverse events (SAEs). RESULTS ESD for 157 cases of EGC in 149 patients was performed in an elderly and comorbid cohort with a mean age of 73.7 years and age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index of 4.2. Over a median follow-up of 51.6 months, no significant differences were found in 5-year OS (88.9% vs 77.9%, P = .290) and DFS (83.2% vs 75.1%, P = .593) between absolute indication (AI) EGC and relative indication (RI) EGC. The AI EGC cohort achieved higher en-bloc (96.3% vs 87.5%, P = .069) and R0 resection rates (93.6% vs 62.5%, P < .001) when compared with RI EGC. No significant differences were found in SAEs (7.3% vs 12.5%, P = .363). No mortality or surgical resection ensued from adverse events from ESD. CONCLUSIONS ESD safely confers DFS in poor surgical candidates with RI EGC in a large Western cohort. Patients who are elderly and/or with comorbidities or decline surgical resection may benefit from ESD and avoid the risks of surgery and its long-term sequelae.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a well-established treatment modality for gastric neoplasms. We aimed to investigate the effect of procedural volume on the outcome of ESD for gastric cancer or adenoma. METHODS In this population-based cohort study, patients who underwent ESD for gastric cancer or adenoma from November 2011 to December 2017 were identified using the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. Operational definitions to identify the target population and post-procedural complications were created using diagnosis and procedure codes and were validated using hospital medical record data. Outcomes included hemorrhage, perforation, pneumonia, 30-day mortality, a composite outcome comprising all of these adverse outcomes, and additional resection. Hospital volume was categorized into 3 groups based on the results of the threshold analysis: high-, medium-, low-volume centers (HVCs, MVCs, and LVCs, respectively). Inverse probability of treatment weighting analysis was applied to enhance comparability across the volume groups. RESULTS There were 94,246 procedures performed in 88,687 patients during the study period. There were 5886 composite events including 4925 hemorrhage, 447 perforation, and 703 pneumonia cases. There were significant differences in ESD-related adverse outcomes among the 3 hospital volume categories, showing that HVCs and MVCs were associated with a lower risk of a composite outcome than LVCs (inverse probability of treatment-weighted odds ratio [OR], 0.651; 95% CI, 0.521-0.814; inverse probability of treatment-weighted OR, 0.641; 95% CI, 0.534-0.769). Similar tendencies were also shown for hemorrhage, perforation, and pneumonia; however, these were not evident for additional resection. CONCLUSIONS Procedural volume was closely associated with clinical outcome in patients undergoing ESD for gastric cancer or adenoma.

A Modified eCura System to Stratify the Risk of Lymph Node Metastasis in Undifferentiated-Type Early Gastric Cancer After Endoscopic Resection. J Gastric Cancer 2024; 24:172-184. [PMID: 38575510 PMCID: PMC10995829 DOI: 10.5230/jgc.2024.24.e13] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2023] [Revised: 12/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/06/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The original eCura system was designed to stratify the risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM) after endoscopic resection (ER) in patients with early gastric cancer (EGC). We assessed the effectiveness of a modified eCura system for reflecting the characteristics of undifferentiated-type (UD)-EGC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six hundred thirty-four patients who underwent non-curative ER for UD-EGC and received either additional surgery (radical surgery group; n=270) or no further treatment (no additional treatment group; n=364) from 18 institutions between 2005 and 2015 were retrospectively included in this study. The eCuraU system assigned 1 point each for tumors >20 mm in size, ulceration, positive vertical margin, and submucosal invasion <500 µm; 2 points for submucosal invasion ≥500 µm; and 3 points for lymphovascular invasion. RESULTS LNM rates in the radical surgery group were 1.1%, 5.4%, and 13.3% for the low- (0-1 point), intermediate- (2-3 points), and high-risk (4-8 points), respectively (P-for-trend<0.001). The eCuraU system showed a significantly higher probability of identifying patients with LNM as high-risk than the eCura system (66.7% vs. 22.2%; McNemar P<0.001). In the no additional treatment group, overall survival (93.4%, 87.2%, and 67.6% at 5 years) and cancer-specific survival (99.6%, 98.9%, and 92.9% at 5 years) differed significantly among the low-, intermediate-, and high-risk categories, respectively (both P<0.001). In the high-risk category, surgery outperformed no treatment in terms of overall mortality (hazard ratio, 3.26; P=0.015). CONCLUSIONS The eCuraU system stratified the risk of LNM in patients with UD-EGC after ER. It is strongly recommended that high-risk patients undergo additional surgery.

[PMID: 38506938 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-024-03289-w] [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: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Laparoscopic intragastric submucosal dissection (LISD) is a novel approach to the resection of gastric lesion that are not amenable to conventional endoscopic approaches. The technique permits favourable access to lesions situated at the cardia and angular notch of the stomach, enables en-bloc resection of large areas of tissue, and can prevent the need of formal gastrectomy or oesophagectomy in selected patients. METHODS All cases were deemed suitable for LISD by a multidisciplinary team panel following endoscopic assessment (using white light enhancement, chromoendoscopy and magnification endoscopy) that was integrated when needed with EUS, CT scan or PET scan. The surgical technique consisted in a 3-port laparoscopic approach; after establishment of pneumoperitoneum, three gastrotomies were performed to enable port insertion into the stomach. Following establishment of stable pneumogastrium, the area of interest was identified, submucosal hyaluronic acid injection performed to provide a cushion in the plane of dissection, and the excision area was circumferentially marked with cautery. Resection was completed using cautery hook, along a plane parallel to the muscolaris propria. After the specimen was extracted in a retrieval bag, intracorporeal single layer running suture closure of gastrotomies was performed. The abdominal wall closed by layers and tap block performed along with local anaesthetic injection on skin incision. Measures were taken to ensure correct orientation of resected specimens prior to fixation. RESULTS During the study period that spans from 2014 and 2022, a total of 11 patients underwent LISD for limited lesions of the stomach, 10 were located at gastro-oesophageal junction and one at the angular incisura. Four patients were female, seven males. The median age was 74 (46-79) years. R0 resection rate was 54.5%. Mean operative time was 109 min with very low blood loss (10 ml). Mortality rate was 0%, no immediate major complications (Grade II-V Clavien Dindo), including haemorrhage or perforation, occurred in these cases. Two patients developed dysphagia later that was successfully treated with endoscopic balloon dilatations. Median hospital stay was 3 days and median oral intake was on day 1 post-procedural. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic intragastric submucosal dissection is shown to be a safe and effective intervention for the treatment of early gastric cancers in selected patients having undergone deemed not amenable for endoscopic submucosal resection for their technically challenging location. Its application can serve as route to avoid formal surgery and the associated morbidity.

Abstract
This document from the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) provides a full description of the methodology used in the review of the evidence used to inform the final guidance outlined in the accompanying Summary and Recommendations document regarding the role of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the management of early esophageal and gastric cancers. This guideline used the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation framework and specifically addresses the role of ESD versus EMR and/or surgery, where applicable, for the management of early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), and gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) and their corresponding precursor lesions. For ESCC, the ASGE suggests ESD over EMR for patients with early-stage, well-differentiated, nonulcerated cancer >15 mm, whereas in patients with similar lesions ≤15 mm, the ASGE suggests either ESD or EMR. The ASGE suggests against surgery for such patients with ESCC, whenever possible. For EAC, the ASGE suggests ESD over EMR for patients with early-stage, well-differentiated, nonulcerated cancer >20 mm, whereas in patients with similar lesions measuring ≤20 mm, the ASGE suggests either ESD or EMR. For GAC, the ASGE suggests ESD over EMR for patients with early-stage, well or moderately differentiated, nonulcerated intestinal type cancer measuring 20 to 30 mm, whereas for patients with similar lesions <20 mm, the ASGE suggests either ESD or EMR. The ASGE suggests against surgery for patients with such lesions measuring ≤30 mm, whereas for lesions that are poorly differentiated, regardless of size, the ASGE suggests surgical evaluation over endosic approaches.

Abstract
This clinical practice guideline from the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) provides an evidence-based summary and recommendations regarding the role of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the management of early esophageal and gastric cancers. It is accompanied by the document subtitled "Methodology and Review of Evidence," which provides a detailed account of the methodology used for the evidence review. This guideline was developed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation framework and specifically addresses the role of ESD versus EMR and/or surgery, where applicable, for the management of early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), and gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) and their corresponding precursor lesions. For ESCC, the ASGE suggests ESD over EMR for patients with early-stage, well-differentiated, nonulcerated cancer >15 mm, whereas in patients with similar lesions ≤15 mm, the ASGE suggests either ESD or EMR. The ASGE suggests against surgery for such patients with ESCC, whenever possible. For EAC, the ASGE suggests ESD over EMR for patients with early-stage, well-differentiated, nonulcerated cancer >20 mm, whereas in patients with similar lesions measuring ≤20 mm, the ASGE suggests either ESD or EMR. For GAC, the ASGE suggests ESD over EMR for patients with early-stage, well- or moderately differentiated, nonulcerated intestinal type cancer measuring 20 to 30 mm, whereas for patients with similar lesions <20 mm, the ASGE suggests either ESD or EMR. The ASGE suggests against surgery for patients with such lesions measuring ≤30 mm, whereas for lesions that are poorly differentiated, regardless of size, we suggest surgical evaluation over endoscopic approaches.

Asian J Surg 2023; 46:3705-3709. [PMID: 37210260 DOI: 10.1016/j.asjsur.2023.04.110] [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: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIM The indication of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for mucosal undifferentiated early gastric cancer (EGC) remains controversial because of risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM). The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for lymph node metastasis (LNM) in mucosal undifferentiated EGC, and further to confirm feasibility of the ESD for the treatment of mucosal undifferentiated EGC. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data of patients who underwent surgical resection with lymph node dissection of T1a stage primary gastric adenocarcinoma at three medical centers between 2012 and 2022. We evaluated the frequency of lymph node metastasis and the associated risk factors, as well as the lymph node metastasis rate in the expanded indication of mucosal undifferentiated EGC. RESULTS A total of 100 surgically treated patients with mucosal undifferentiated EGC were enrolled. LNM was irrelevant to the age, tumor size, location, and macroscopic type (all P > 0.05), while it was significantly associated with lymphovascular invasion (LVI, P <0.001). And logistic regression analysis showed that the LVI was the only significant risk factors for LNM (OR: 0.34, 95%CI: 0.06-0.204; P <0.001). Of 44 mucosal undifferentiated EGC patients satisfying the expanded indication of ESD, 3 patients (6.8%) showed LN metastasis, all of them with undifferentiated cancer without ulceration, less than 2.0 cm in size. CONCLUSIONS Because LNM is present in mucosal undifferentiated EGC patients who satisfied the expanded indication of ESD, ESD cannot be considered a better choice than surgery for all undifferentiated EGC patients. LVI was significant risk factors for LNM in patients with mucosal undifferentiated EGC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of factors associated with quality of life (QOL) among cancer survivors is crucial for identifying potential targets for intervention. OBJECTIVES We aimed to provide evidence of factors associated with the QOL among posttreatment cancer survivors in Korea. METHODS We performed a systematic literature search from January 2000 to September 2022 using PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Korean databases (RISS, SCIENCEON). We evaluated study quality using the Joanna Briggs Institute Quality Appraisal Checklists for Analytical Cross-sectional Studies and performed statistical analysis using the R 3.0 software (R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria) package. We analyzed the pooled effect sizes of potential QOL correlates by the random-effects model. RESULTS This meta-analysis included 31 studies with 8934 participants. The pooled estimates were significantly large for economic status (r = -0.53); significantly medium for fatigue (r = -0.39), anxiety (r = -0.29), depression (r = -0.42), self-efficacy (r = 0.37), and social support (r = 0.30); and significantly small for education level (r = -0.18), job status (r = -0.09), cancer stage (r = -0.20), and time since diagnosis (r = -0.26). CONCLUSIONS Low education level, having no job, low economic status, advanced cancer stage, short disease period, fatigue, anxiety, and depression were significantly associated with worse QOL, whereas self-efficacy and social support were significantly associated with better QOL. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE The findings have potential implications for identifying "at-risk survivors" of deteriorated QOL and for suggesting powerful strategies (eg, enhancing self-efficacy or social support) for improving QOL.

Abstract
Background and study aims Undifferentiated early gastric cancer (UD-EGC) represents an extended indication for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) based on the existing guidelines. This study evaluated the prevalence of UD-EGC recurrence after ESD, and potentially implicated risk factors. Patients and methods Data from 17 centers were collected retrospectively including demographics, endoscopic and pathological findings, and follow-up data from UD-EGC cases treated by ESD. Patients with incomplete resection or advanced disease were excluded. Descriptive statistics quantified variables and calculated the incidence of recurrence. Chi-square test was applied to assess any link between independent variables and relapse; significantly associated variables were inserted to a multivariable regression model. Results Seventy-one patients were eligible, with 2:1 female to male ratio and age of 65.8 ± 11.8 years. Mean lesion size was 33.5 ± 18.8 mm and the most frequent histological subtype was signet ring-cells UGC (2:1). Patients were followed-up every 5.6 ± 3.7 months with a mean surveillance period of 29.3 ± 15.3 months until data collection. Four patients (5.6%) developed local recurrence 8.8 ± 6.5 months post-ESD, with no lymph node or distal metastases been reported. Lesion size was not associated with recurrence ( P = 0.32), in contrast to lymphovascular and perineural invasion which were independently associated with local recurrence ( P = 0.006 and P < 0.001, respectively). Conclusions ESD could be considered as the initial step to manage UD-EGC, providing at least an "entire-lesion" biopsy to guide therapeutic strategy. When histology confirms absence of lymphovascular and perineural invasion, this modality could be therapeutic, providing low recurrence rates.

The effect of short-term training about depth predicting score on the diagnostic ability of invasion depth for differentiated early gastric Cancer among non-expert endoscopists. BMC MEDICAL EDUCATION 2023; 23:347. [PMID: 37198569 DOI: 10.1186/s12909-023-04230-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The depth-predicting score (DPS) was proposed based on conventional white-light imaging (C-WLI) endoscopic features of early gastric cancer (EGC) to determine the invasion depth of the neoplasm. However, the effect of DPS on training endoscopists remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effect of short-term DPS training on improving the diagnostic ability of EGC invasion depth and compare the training effect among non-expert endoscopists at different levels. METHODS In the training session, the definitions and scoring rules of DPS were instructed, and classic C-WLI endoscopic example graphics were exhibited to the participants. Another C-WLI endoscopic images of 88 cases of histologically proven differentiated EGC were selected as an independent test dataset for evaluating the training effect. Each participant was tested, and the diagnostic accuracy rate of invasion depth was calculated differently one week before the training and after the completion of training. RESULTS A total of 16 participants were enrolled and completed the training. Participants were divided into a trainee group and a junior endoscopist group according to the total number of C-WLI endoscopies performed. The total number of C-WLI endoscopies performed showed a significant difference between the trainee group and junior endoscopist group (350 vs. 2500, P = 0.001). No significant difference between the trainee group and junior endoscopist group was observed for pre-training accuracy. The overall diagnostic accuracy of invasion depth was improved significantly after completing DPS training compared with before (68.75 ± 5.71% vs. 61.58 ± 9.61%, P = 0.009). In the subgroup analysis, the post-training accuracy was higher than the pre-training accuracy, but significant improvement was observed only in the trainee group (61.65 ± 7.33% vs. 68.32 ± 5.71%, P = 0.034). In addition, no significant difference in post-training accuracy between the two groups was observed. CONCLUSION Short-term DPS training can improve the diagnostic ability of the invasion depth of EGC and homogenize the diagnostic ability of non-expert endoscopists at different levels. The depth-predicting score was convenient and effective for endoscopist training.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers arise in the GI tract and accessory organs, including the mouth, esophagus, stomach, liver, biliary tract, pancreas, small intestine, large intestine, and rectum. GI cancers are a major cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Exosomes act as mediators of cell-to-cell communication, with pleiotropic activity in the regulation of homeostasis, and can be markers for diseases. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), can be transported by exosomes derived from tumor cells or non-tumor cells. They can be taken by recipient cells to alter their function or remodel the tumor microenvironment. Moreover, due to their uniquely low immunogenicity and excellent stability, exosomes can be used as natural carriers for therapeutic ncRNAs in vivo. Exosomal lncRNAs have a crucial role in regulating several cancer processes, including angiogenesis, proliferation, drug resistance, metastasis, and immunomodulation. Exosomal lncRNA levels frequently alter according to the onset and progression of cancer. Exosomal lncRNAs can therefore be employed as biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of cancer. Exosomal lncRNAs can also monitor the patient's response to chemotherapy while also serving as potential targets for cancer treatment. Here, we discuss the role of exosomal lncRNAs in the biology and possible future treatment of GI cancer.

Abstract
Background This study aims to develop and validate a predictive model combining deep transfer learning, radiomics, and clinical features for lymph node metastasis (LNM) in early gastric cancer (EGC). Materials and methods This study retrospectively collected 555 patients with EGC, and randomly divided them into two cohorts with a ratio of 7:3 (training cohort, n = 388; internal validation cohort, n = 167). A total of 79 patients with EGC collected from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were used as external validation cohort. Pre-trained deep learning networks were used to extract deep transfer learning (DTL) features, and radiomics features were extracted based on hand-crafted features. We employed the Spearman rank correlation test and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression for feature selection from the combined features of clinical, radiomics, and DTL features, and then, machine learning classification models including support vector machine, K-nearest neighbor, random decision forests (RF), and XGBoost were trained, and their performance by determining the area under the curve (AUC) were compared. Results We constructed eight pre-trained transfer learning networks and extracted DTL features, respectively. The results showed that 1,048 DTL features extracted based on the pre-trained Resnet152 network combined in the predictive model had the best performance in discriminating the LNM status of EGC, with an AUC of 0.901 (95% CI: 0.847–0.956) and 0.915 (95% CI: 0.850–0.981) in the internal validation and external validation cohorts, respectively. Conclusion We first utilized comprehensive multidimensional data based on deep transfer learning, radiomics, and clinical features with a good predictive ability for discriminating the LNM status in EGC, which could provide favorable information when choosing therapy options for individuals with EGC.

J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11185403. [PMID: 36143052 PMCID: PMC9503103 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11185403] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer (EGC) in the remnant stomach or gastric tube is not yet widespread and few studies have compared the short-term and long-term outcomes with radical surgery. (2) Methods: A total of 73 consecutive patients with EGC in the remnant stomach or gastric tube who underwent ESD or radical surgery between October 2009 and October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed in this study. Baseline characteristics, post-operative complications, quality of life (QOL), recurrence rate, overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared between the ESD and surgery groups. (3) Results: Among the 73 patients with EGC in the remnant stomach or gastric tube, 48 (65.8%) underwent ESD and 25 (34.2%) underwent surgery. The operation time (p = 0.000) and post-operative hospital stay (p = 0.002) of the ESD group were significantly shorter than those in the surgery group. The incidence of post-operative complications in the ESD group was significantly lower than that in surgery group (p = 0.001). The ESD group had significantly better functional scale scores and lower rates of fatigue, pain, appetite loss, financial difficulties, dysphagia, eating restrictions, hair loss, and poor body image than the surgery group. There was no significant difference in OS or DFS between the ESD and surgery groups (p = 0.124 and 0.344, respectively). (4) Conclusion: ESD can significantly shorten the operation time and hospital stay, reduce surgical complications, and provide better QOL for patients with EGC in the remnant stomach or gastric tube, and its long-term prognosis is no shorter than that of radical surgery.

In Vitro and In Vivo Investigation on the Effectiveness of Alginate-Based Gastric Mucosal Protective Gel. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:8287163. [PMID: 36060134 PMCID: PMC9433266 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8287163] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Objective To investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of an alginate-based gastric mucosal protective gel on the gastric ulcer. Methods (1) In the physical protection model, after GES-1 cell attachment add the gel to transwell chamber, add different concentrations of HCl to the gel. Absorbance was measured to assess proliferation and images of the cells migrating into the wound were taken; then the migration rate of the cells was quantified by comparing images. (2) In the gastric ulcer model, excise the gastric mucosal of SD rats; the gel and fixative were applied on the artificial ulcer immediately. Dissect rats after 10 days, and calculate the wound healing rate and analyzed histology changes. Results The effect of hydrochloric acid on cells in the lower layer was significantly reduced after the use of gastric mucosal protection gel. The protective gel had an isolation effect on different concentrations of acid. A number of GES-1 were significantly higher than those in the control group at 24 h to 72 h (P < 0.01). The migration was observed compared with the control group. The average healing rate of ulcer in the gel group was about 50%, and the control group was about 30%. Inflammation occurred in all wound regions after ten days. In the gel group, inflammatory infiltration depth was lower than that of the control, and part of SD rats' new muscle layer appeared without inflammatory infiltration. The connective tissue proliferation promoted tissue repair. In the control group, necrosis marginal, mucosal hyperplasia, marginal lymphocyte aggregation, and bleeding were observed. Conclusion This novel gel mainly has an isolating and shielding effect to prevent the wound from being exposed to gastric acid for a long time, and it can reduce the inflammatory reaction on the wounds to promote the healing of the ulcer. The gastric mucosal protective gel cannot only promote the speed of wound healing but also improve the quality of wound healing.

Endoscopic Resection Versus Surgery in the Treatment of Early Gastric Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Front Oncol 2022; 12:939244. [PMID: 35903707 PMCID: PMC9314734 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.939244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2022] [Accepted: 06/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Aim Endoscopic resection (ER) is the preferred approach to treat early gastric cancer (EGC) in patients without suspected lymph node involvement and that meet the criteria for ER. Surgery is a more aggressive treatment, but it may be associated with less recurrence and the need for reintervention. Previous meta-analyses comparing ER with surgery for EGC did not incorporate the most recent studies, making accurate conclusions not possible. Methods This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to examine complete resection, length of hospital stay (LOHS), adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, recurrence, 5-year overall survival (OS), and 5-year cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients with EGC. Results A total of 29 cohorts studies involving 20559 patients were included. The ER (n = 7709) group was associated with a lower incidence of AEs (RD = -0.07, 95%CI = -0.1, -0.04, p < 0.0001) and shorter LOHS (95% CI -5.89, -5.32; p < 0,00001) compared to surgery (n = 12850). However, ER was associated with lower complete resection rates (RD = -0.1, 95%CI = -0.15, -0.06; p < 0.00001) and higher rates of recurrence (RD = 0.07, 95%CI = 0.06; p < 0.00001). There were no significant differences between surgery and ER in 5-year OS (RD = -0.01, 95%CI = -0.04, 0.02; p = 0.38), 5-year CSS (RD = 0.01, 95%CI = 0.00, 0.02; p < 0.17), and incidence of serious AEs (RD = -0.03, 95%CI = -0.08, 0.01; p = 0.13). Conclusions ER and surgery are safe and effective treatments for EGC. ER provides lower rates of AEs and shorter LOHS compared to surgery. Although ER is associated with lower complete resection rates and a higher risk of recurrence, the OS and CSS were similar between both approaches.

Abstract
Although the mortality rates of gastric cancer (GC) are gradually declining, gastric cancer is still the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. This may be due to the high rate of patients who are diagnosed with GC at advanced stages. However, in countries such as Japan with endoscopic screening systems, more than half of GCs are discovered at an early stage, enabling endoscopic resection (ER). Especially after the introduction of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in Japan around 2000, a high en bloc resection rate allowing pathological assessment of margin and depth has become possible. While ER is a diagnostic method of treatment and may not always be curative, it is widely accepted as standard treatment because it is less invasive than surgery and can provide an accurate diagnosis for deciding whether additional surgery is necessary. The curability of ER is currently assessed by the completeness of primary tumor removal and the possibility of lymph node metastasis. This review introduces methods, indications, and curability criteria for ER of EGC. Despite recent advances, several problems remain unsolved. This review will also outline the latest evidence concerning future issues.

Abstract
ESGE recommends that the evaluation of superficial gastrointestinal (GI) lesions should be made by an experienced endoscopist, using high definition white-light and chromoendoscopy (virtual or dye-based).ESGE does not recommend routine performance of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or positron emission tomography (PET)-CT prior to endoscopic resection.ESGE recommends endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) as the treatment of choice for most superficial esophageal squamous cell and superficial gastric lesions.For Barrett's esophagus (BE)-associated lesions, ESGE suggests the use of ESD for lesions suspicious of submucosal invasion (Paris type 0-Is, 0-IIc), for malignant lesions > 20 mm, and for lesions in scarred/fibrotic areas.ESGE does not recommend routine use of ESD for duodenal or small-bowel lesions.ESGE suggests that ESD should be considered for en bloc resection of colorectal (but particularly rectal) lesions with suspicion of limited submucosal invasion (demarcated depressed area with irregular surface pattern or a large protruding or bulky component, particularly if the lesions are larger than 20 mm) or for lesions that otherwise cannot be completely removed by snare-based techniques.ESGE recommends that an en bloc R0 resection of a superficial GI lesion with histology no more advanced than intramucosal cancer (no more than m2 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma), well to moderately differentiated, with no lymphovascular invasion or ulceration, should be considered a very low risk (curative) resection, and no further staging procedure or treatment is generally recommended.ESGE recommends that the following should be considered to be a low risk (curative) resection and no further treatment is generally recommended: an en bloc R0 resection of a superficial GI lesion with superficial submucosal invasion (sm1), that is well to moderately differentiated, with no lymphovascular invasion, of size ≤ 20 mm for an esophageal squamous cell carcinoma or ≤ 30 mm for a stomach lesion or of any size for a BE-related or colorectal lesion, and with no lymphovascular invasion, and no budding grade 2 or 3 for colorectal lesions.ESGE recommends that, after an endoscopically complete resection, if there is a positive horizontal margin or if resection is piecemeal, but there is no submucosal invasion and no other high risk criteria are met, this should be considered a local-risk resection and endoscopic surveillance or re-treatment is recommended rather than surgery or other additional treatment.ESGE recommends that when there is a diagnosis of lymphovascular invasion, or deeper infiltration than sm1, or positive vertical margins, or undifferentiated tumor, or, for colorectal lesions, budding grade 2 or 3, this should be considered a high risk (noncurative) resection, and complete staging and strong consideration for additional treatments should be considered on an individual basis in a multidisciplinary discussion.ESGE recommends scheduled endoscopic surveillance with high definition white-light and chromoendoscopy (virtual or dye-based) with biopsies of only the suspicious areas after a curative ESD.

Abstract
Background: In Korea, the number of screening endoscopies to detect early stage gastric neoplasms has increased exponentially following the active implementation of the National Cancer Screening Program.Current Concepts: Endoscopic treatment, including endoscopic mucosal resection and endoscopic submucosal dissection, is recognized as a minimally invasive treatment method with low morbidity and mortality for gastric dysplasia or early gastric cancer. Owing to improvement in the detection of early gastric cancer and advances in techniques, cases of endoscopic resection have increased and indications have been expanded. Endoscopic resection can preserve gastric function with excellent maintenance of the patient’s quality of life, and previous studies have shown better long-term follow-up outcomes compared to those with surgery. However, the fundamental limitation of endoscopic procedures is that gastric lymph-node dissection is not possible using endoscopic resection.Discussion and Conclusion: Although the usefulness of endoscopic resection is proven for tumors with a very low risk of lymph-node metastasis, follow-up examination using endoscopy and computed tomography should be performed for at least 5 years after curative resection of early gastric cancer.

Abstract
Aim Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) may contribute to early detection of secondary cancer in the upper gastrointestinal tract although the clinical relevance of follow‐up after gastrectomy remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the effectiveness of follow‐up EGD by investigating the incidence of secondary cancer in any part of the upper gastrointestinal tract. Methods Data from 1438 patients who underwent curative partial gastrectomy for primary gastric cancer between 2008 and 2014 and follow‐up EGD at least once during a 5‐year follow‐up period were retrospectively reviewed. Incidence rates of remnant gastric cancer, laryngeal cancer, and esophageal cancer detected after follow‐up EGD were determined, and risk factors for secondary cancers were examined. The characteristics of clinicopathological diagnoses of secondary cancers were reviewed and compared according to the frequency of follow‐up EGD. Results The average annual frequency of EGD was 0.7, while the 5‐year cumulative incidence rates of remnant gastric cancer and secondary laryngeal and esophageal cancers were 2.9% and 1.3%, respectively. Risk factors for remnant gastric cancer included heavy smoking, proximal gastrectomy, and tumor size ≥ 30 mm. All secondary cancers were resectable upon diagnosis, with endoscopically resectable cancer accounting for 81.0% of cases. Our results found a significantly higher proportion of endoscopically resectable cancers during regular follow‐up than during infrequent follow‐up. Conclusions Follow‐up EGD can be a useful modality for detecting secondary upper gastrointestinal tract cancer, likely leading to curative treatment for secondary cancer. Focusing on patients presenting with risk factors may increase the value of follow‐up EGD after gastrectomy.

Abstract
Background Lymph node metastasis (LNM) has a significant impact on the prognosis of patients with early gastric cancer (EGC). Our aim was to identify the independent risk factors for LNM and construct nomograms for male and female EGC patients, respectively. Methods Clinicopathological data of 1,742 EGC patients who underwent radical gastrectomy and lymphadenectomy in the First Affiliated Hospital, Second Affiliated Hospital, and Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University between November 2011 and April 2021 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Male and female patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were assigned to training sets and then from the Second and Fourth Affiliated Hospitals of Anhui Medical University were enrolled in validation sets. Based on independent risk factors for LNM in male and female EGC patients from the training sets, the nomograms were established respectively, which was also verified by internal validation from the training sets and external validation from the validation sets. Results Tumor size (odd ratio (OR): 1.386, p = 0.030), depth of invasion (OR: 0.306, p = 0.001), Lauren type (OR: 2.816, p = 0.000), lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (OR: 0.160, p = 0.000), and menopause (OR: 0.296, p = 0.009) were independent risk factors for female EGC patients. For male EGC patients, tumor size (OR: 1.298, p = 0.007), depth of invasion (OR: 0.257, p = 0.000), tumor location (OR: 0.659, p = 0.002), WHO type (OR: 1.419, p = 0.001), Lauren type (OR: 3.099, p = 0.000), and LVI (OR: 0.131, p = 0.000) were independent risk factors. Moreover, nomograms were established to predict the risk of LNM for female and male EGC patients, respectively. The area under the ROC curve of nomograms for female and male training sets were 87.7% (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.8397–0.914) and 94.8% (95% CI: 0.9273–0.9695), respectively. For the validation set, they were 92.4% (95% CI: 0.7979–1) and 93.4% (95% CI: 0.8928–0.9755), respectively. Additionally, the calibration curves showed good agreements between the bias-corrected prediction and the ideal reference line for both training sets and validation sets in female and male EGC patients. Conclusions Nomograms based on risk factors for LNM in male and female EGC patients may provide new insights into the selection of appropriate treatment methods.

ANNALS OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE 2021; 9:1127. [PMID: 34430568 PMCID: PMC8350673 DOI: 10.21037/atm-21-891] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2021] [Accepted: 05/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
Background After endoscopic submucosal dissection of gastric neoplasms, surveillance endoscopy is required for patients with synchronous or metachronous neoplasms. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors associated with surveillance loss in patients who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection. Methods Ninety-five patients treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection for gastric neoplasms between May 2015 and June 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinicopathologic factors, sociodemographic factors, psychiatric measures, and associated risk factors for surveillance loss were evaluated. The chi-square or Fisher exact test, t-test, and logistic regression analysis were used in data analysis. Results Twenty-five (26.3%) patients were identified as having surveillance loss. Compared to the surveillance group, the surveillance loss group was old and had dysplasia, and a healthy American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status. Similarly, surveillance loss was related to low symptom perception, low incidence of alexithymia, mindful awareness, and high trait forgiveness. Logistic regression analysis showed that dysplasia (odds ratio, 15.23; 95% CI, 1.56-149.09, P=0.019), old age (odds ratio, 7.14; 95% CI, 1.90-26.88, P=0.004), and American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status 1 (odds ratio, 3.99; 95% CI, 1.09-14.60, P=0.037) were associated with surveillance loss. Conclusions Dysplasia, old age, and the American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status 1 were associated with surveillance loss in patients who underwent gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection. It could be helpful to proactively monitor patients with such conditions after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection.

Abstract
Background Certain gastric cancers exhibit some primitive phenotypes, which may indicate a high malignancy. In histologically differentiated early gastric cancer (EGC), the presence and the clinicopathological significance of the primitive phenotype remain unclear. Methods Using immunohistochemical staining we detected the expression of three primitive phenotypic markers SALL4, Glypican-3(GPC3), and AFP in whole tissue sections of differentiated EGC (gastrectomy specimens, n = 302). For those cases with primitive phenotypes, we analyzed their clinicopathological features and evaluated whether the criteria for endoscopic resection were met. Results We found that 9.3% (28/302) of all differentiated EGC cases have primitive phenotypes, and most of these cases (25/28) exhibit a histomorphology similar to conventional differentiated EGC. Patients with primitive phenotypes had a deeper invasion, a higher rate of ulcer and lymphatic invasion than cases without primitive phenotype. Moreover, patients with primitive phenotypes displayed a significantly higher frequency of LNM than those without (57.1% vs 8.8%, P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that presence of primitive phenotypes was an independent risk factor for LNM (P = 0.001, HR 6.977, 95% CI: 2.199–22.138). Interestingly, we found 2 cases with primitive phenotypes developed LNM, and they both met the expanded indications of endoscopic resection for differentiated EGC. Conclusions A small number of differentiated EGC have primitive phenotypes, which were closely related to LNM and were an independent risk factor for LNM. Given its highly aggressive behavior, differentiated EGC with primitive phenotypes should be evaluated with stricter criteria before endoscopic resection, or considered to give an additional surgical operation after endoscopic resection.

Abstract
Although surgery was the standard treatment for early gastrointestinal cancers, endoscopic resection is now a standard treatment for early gastrointestinal cancers without regional lymph node metastasis. High-definition white light endoscopy, chromoendoscopy, and image-enhanced endoscopy such as narrow band imaging are performed to assess the edge and depth of early gastrointestinal cancers for delineation of resection boundaries and prediction of the possibility of lymph node metastasis before the decision of endoscopic resection. Endoscopic mucosal resection and/or endoscopic submucosal dissection can be performed to remove early gastrointestinal cancers completely by en bloc fashion. Histopathological evaluation should be carefully made to investigate the presence of risk factors for lymph node metastasis such as depth of cancer invasion and lymphovascular invasion. Additional treatment such as radical surgery with regional lymphadenectomy should be considered if the endoscopically resected specimen shows risk factors for lymph node metastasis. This is the first Korean clinical practice guideline for endoscopic resection of early gastrointestinal cancer. This guideline was developed by using mainly de novo methods and encompasses endoscopic management of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, early gastric cancer, and early colorectal cancer. This guideline will be revised as new data on early gastrointestinal cancer are collected.

Abstract
Background Early prevention and diagnosis are key to reducing the huge burden of gastric cancer (GC). Nearly half of the population worldwide are suffering from some form of digestive tract conditions (symptoms/diagnoses, DTCs) but their relations with GC are not well understood. We aim to explore the relationships (especially dose–effect relationships) between GC and DTCs. Methods This study used data from a community-based case–control study in Anhui, China during 2016–2019 and performed multivariate conditional logistic regression modeling of the associations between GC and DTCs. Results A total of 2255 participants (451 cases and 1804 controls) completed the study. Statistically significant relations (P<0.05) were found between GC and the presence of gastroesophageal reflux [odds ratio (OR)=1.41], odynophagia (OR=1.87), stomach discomfort (OR=1.86), poor appetite (OR=2.01) and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection (OR=4.39). When the DTCs were divided into duration grades, all these ORs presented an increasing trend (P<0.05), being 1.89 to 2.45 for gastroesophageal reflux, 1.63 to 3.78 for stomach discomfort, 2.36 to 5.29 for poor appetite, and 3.95 to 10.03 for H. pylori infection. When the DTCs were divided into severity grades, the ORs also witnessed an increasing trend (P<0.05), being 1.69 to 2.52 for gastroesophageal reflux, 2.44 to 3.56 for stomach discomfort, and 2.22 to 2.75 for poor appetite. When the DTCs were divided into duration-severity grades, the ORs displayed a much steeper increasing trend, being 0.49 to 4.96 for gastroesophageal reflux, 1.50 to 6.33 for odynophagia, 0.47 to 3.32 for stomach discomfort, and 0.40 to 10.47 for poor appetite. In contrast, the ORs for the lower DTCs were generally tested without statistical significance. Conclusion The study revealed consistent dose–effect associations between GC and duration of gastroesophageal reflux, stomach discomfort, poor appetite, and H. pylori infection; severity of gastroesophageal reflux, stomach discomfort and poor appetite; and duration-severity of gastroesophageal reflux, odynophagia, stomach discomfort and poor appetite. These should inform future prevention, diagnosis and further research in patients with GC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With growing incidence of early gastric cancer (EGC), endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely performed as a standard treatment for mucosal cancer. Due to the increasing application of ESD, the number of non-curative resection after ESD is also growing, leading to escalating number of patients who require additional gastrectomy with lymph node dissection after non-curative ESD. However, effects of ESD prior to surgery on technical difficulties during operation for EGC remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of non-curative ESD on short-term surgical outcomes in patients who underwent additional surgical treatment using propensity score matching method. METHODS To evaluate the effect of ESD on short-term surgical outcomes in patients who underwent additional surgical treatment after a non-curative ESD procedure, patients were divided into two groups: (1) those who underwent additional gastrectomy after non-curative resection of ESD [ESD + Surgery (ES) Group], and (2) those who underwent gastrectomy as the initial treatment [Surgery Only (SO) Group]. To minimize differences in baseline demographic features that could potentially be associated with short-term outcomes, propensity-scored matching analysis was performed. RESULTS After propensity-scored matching (1:1 matching), 140 patients altogether were selected and analyzed in this study. Complications were experienced by 18 (25.7%) patients in the ES group and 13 (18.6%) patients in the SO group, showing no significant (p < 0.416) difference between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Additional surgery after non-curative ESD can be safely applied, even within one month after ESD in terms of short-term complications.

Abstract
Background and Study Aim: EGC, also known as Early Gastric Cancer is known to lack the lymph node metastasis and confined along the mucosa, which is treated through an endoscopic resection procedure that includes ESD (Endoscopic Submucosal dissection) and EMR (Endoscopic Mucosal Resection). However, some cases underwent residual disease, recurrence, or additional gastrectomy because of non-curative resection. The following research aims to delineate the threat factors causing the non-curative resection as well as develop a predictive model. Patient and Methods: Effort was taken to collect all the records about the health history of pathologically diagnosed EGC who experienced endoscopic treatment in the Department of Endoscopy, the Capital Medical University, and Beijing Friendship Hospital from January 2012 to January 2020. Patients were grouped into two categories primarily; a curative resection group and finally a non-curative resection group based on the outcomes of the postoperative pathological and immunohistochemical examination results. The statistical methods used included single factor analysis, a multivariate logistic regression analysis and a chi-square test. A nomogram for the prediction of non-curative resection was constructed, which included information on age, gender, resection method, postoperative pathology, tumor size, ulcer, treatment, and infiltration depth. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and calibration were performed to present the predictive accuracy of the nomogram. Results: Of 443 patients with 478 lesions who had undergone ESD or EMR for EGCs, 127 were identified as being treated non-curative resection. Older patients (>60 years), a large tumor size (>30 mm), submucosal lesion, piecemeal resection, EMR for treatment and undifferentiated tumor histology were associated with non-curative resection group. Our risk nomogram showed good discriminated performance in internal validation (bootstrap-corrected area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve, 0.881; P < 0.001). Conclusions: A validated prediction model was developed to identify people who were subject to undergoing a non-curative resection for ESD. The predictive model that we formulated is essential in providing reliable information to guide the decision-making process on the treatment for EGC before undertaking an endoscopic resection.

Abstract
Treatment of gastric cancer is stage specific and ranges from endoscopic resections in early gastric cancer to gastrectomy and multimodal treatment in locally advanced tumour situations. Palliative systemic treatment has the potential to prolong survival in advanced tumour stages. However, tumour-directed therapies and their side-effects potentially worsen the general condition of a patient. Treatment discussions and decisions, especially when trading-off the options with the patient, have widened their focus from 'technical' terms like overall survival, disease-free survival and progression-free survival to patient reported outcomes (PROs) including quality of life (QoL). The assessment of PROs has evolved as important endpoint in clinical studies. A precise definition of QoL seems impossible. Its multiple dimensions can be evaluated by various validated questionnaires like the QLQ-C30 and FACT-G focusing on different priorities. Special additional tools have been developed and validated to assess QoL in gastric cancer patients (QLQ-STO22, FACT-Ga). We herein give an overview on the options to evaluate QoL in patients with gastric cancer and on published data on the impact of tumour-targeted therapy on QoL in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Size, ulcer, differentiation, and location are known to be factors affecting the T stage accuracy of EUS in gastric cancer. However, whether an interaction exists among recognized variables is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to identify the combinatorial characteristics of group with high overestimation rate to determine which group should be considered carefully for EUS-based treatment plans. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed early gastric cancer patients who underwent EUS from 2005 to 2016. The accuracy of EUS T stage and factors affecting over-/underestimation were examined by using decision tree analysis, the CHAID method. RESULTS The most significant factor affecting the accuracy of the EUS T stage was the size. The rate of overestimation was higher in lesions > 3 cm (37.2% vs. 28.8% vs. 17.1%, p < 0.001). In lesions > 3 cm, the rate of overestimation was higher in lesions with an ulcer (62.1% vs. 35.0%, p < 0.001). Moreover, for lesions ≤ 3 cm, the accuracy of the EUS T stage was more affected by differentiation and location. The rate of overestimation was higher in undifferentiated-type lesions ≤ 2 cm (24.5% vs. 13.9%, p < 0.001) and 2-3 cm (33.3% vs. 25.7%, p = 0.011). In the differentiated type, the location affected the accuracy of the EUS T stage. CONCLUSION In this hierarchical analysis, the rate of overestimation was higher in lesions > 3 cm with ulcer, lesions > 3 cm irrespective of ulcer, and undifferentiated-type lesions measuring 2-3 cm.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The therapy of patients with advanced phase gastric cancer is still a huge threat, with extremely imperfect therapies authorized. Even if the amassed indications have validated the significance of lncRNA in gastric cancer, few understandings are stated concerning nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) practical functions and molecular mechanisms. METHODS In this research, the expression of NEAT1 and miR-1224-5p in gastric cancer tissues was measured by qRT-PCR analysis, and the expression of remodeling and spacing factor 1 (RSF1) was measured by IHC assay. Then, the bioinformatics prediction software ENCORI was applied to envisage the assumed binding sites. The monitoring roles of NEAT1 or miR-1224-5p on the cell proliferation and migration capacity were verified by CCK-8, wound healing and transwell assay, correspondingly. The interactions among NEAT1, miR-1224-5p and RSF1 were investigated via luciferase analysis. RESULTS Our findings revealed high expression levels of NEAT1, RSF1 and a decreased expression level of miR-1224-5p in gastric cancer. Upregulation of NEAT1 or knockdown of miR-1224-5p elevated gastric cancer cell proliferation, and migration. Bioinformatics and luciferase analyses simplified that NEAT1 directly cooperated with miR-1224-5p to weaken miR-1224-5p binding to the RSF1 3'-UTR region. Likewise, the mechanical inquiries ratified that initiation of the miR-1224-5p/RSF1 regulatory loop by miR-1224-5p knockdown or overexpressed RSF1 validated the functions of NEAT1 in endorsing gastric cancer cell malignancy. DISCUSSION Our research initially validated that NEAT1 may regulate the expression of RSF1 competitive sponge to miR-1224-5p, contributed to the supervision of gastric cancer evolution, which exposed new brightness for diagnosis and therapy of gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to compare the long-term results of patients who received these therapies. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was queried in this research for data of patients with early gastric adenocarcinoma who underwent gastrectomy or endoscopic resection from 2007 to 2015. Propensity score matching was selected to generate a balanced cohort. Competing-risk regression analysis was carried out on the matched cohort. Cancer-specific mortality (CSM) and other cause-specific mortality (OCSM) were compared using adjusted subdistribution hazard ratios (SHRs). RESULTS In this study, 2214 patients with 191 underwent endoscopic treatment (ET) and 2023 who underwent surgery were identified. After propensity score matching, 474 patients were included in the analysis. The use of ET increased over time in patients, especially for those with cardia diseases. The ratio of 5-year CSM between ET and gastrectomy groups was 13.12% to 14.24% and the ratio of 5-year OCSM between them was 22.48% versus 14.31%. After adjusting for associated clinicopathologic factors, patients in both groups had similar CSM (SHR=0.87, 95% credible interval: 0.47-1.64, P=0.69) and OCSM (SHR=1.59, 95% credible interval: 0.94-2.68, P=0.08) in multivariable analysis. CONCLUSION The long-term prognosis appears equivalent t in patients with endoscopic resection and gastrectomy.

Abstract
Although surgery was the standard treatment for early gastrointestinal cancers, endoscopic resection is now a standard treatment for early gastrointestinal cancers without regional lymph node metastasis. High-definition white light endoscopy, chromoendoscopy, and image-enhanced endoscopy such as narrow band imaging are performed to assess the edge and depth of early gastrointestinal cancers for delineation of resection boundaries and prediction of the possibility of lymph node metastasis before the decision of endoscopic resection. Endoscopic mucosal resection and/or endoscopic submucosal dissection can be performed to remove early gastrointestinal cancers completely by en bloc fashion. Histopathological evaluation should be carefully made to investigate the presence of risk factors for lymph node metastasis such as depth of cancer invasion and lymphovascular invasion. Additional treatment such as radical surgery with regional lymphadenectomy should be considered if the endoscopically resected specimen shows risk factors for lymph node metastasis. This is the first Korean clinical practice guideline for endoscopic resection of early gastrointestinal cancer. This guideline was developed by using mainly de novo methods and encompasses endoscopic management of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, early gastric cancer, and early colorectal cancer. This guideline will be revised as new data on early gastrointestinal cancer are collected.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common types of malignant tumor and it demonstrates high mortality rates. The majority of cases of GC are diagnosed at an advanced stage, which seriously endangers the health of the patient. Therefore, discovering a novel diagnostic method for GC is a current priority. Exosomes are 40 to 150-nm-diameter vesicles consisting of a lipid bilayer secreted by a variety of cells that exist in multiple different types of body fluids. Exosomes contain diverse types of active substances, including RNAs, proteins and lipids, and play important roles in tumor cell communication, metastasis and neovascularization, as well as tumor growth. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code proteins, and instead have roles in a variety of genetic mechanisms, such as regulating the structure, expression and stability of RNAs, and modulating the translation and function of proteins. In recent years, exosomal ncRNAs have become a novel focus in research. An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that exosomal ncRNAs can be used in the prediction and treatment of GC. The present review briefly discusses the role of exosomal ncRNAs as a potential biomarker, and summarizes important regulatory genes involved in the development and progression of GC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is the second leading cause of death by cancer worldwide. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a technique that allows en bloc resection of early lesions of the digestive tract. It has curative potential in selected patients and benefits over gastrectomy for the treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC). The aim of this study is to present the results of ESD for EGC in a high-volume center in Chile. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective descriptive study of patients who underwent ESD for EGC at the Doctor Sótero del Río Hospital. RESULTS A total of 100 ESDs were performed in 96 patients between 2008 and 2020. Fifty-five percent were female patients, the average age was 68 years (range, 45 to 89 y). En bloc resection was achieved in 98% of cases and the rate of complications Clavien grade III or higher was 8.3%. There were no cases of perioperative mortality. Ninety-three percent of the dissections were classified as R0 and 83% met curative standards according to expanded criteria. The mean follow-up was 42 months (range, 1 to 144 mo). Overall survival was 97%. Cancer-specific survival was 100% and recurrence-free survival was 97%. CONCLUSIONS The present study describes the largest series of ESD for the treatment of EGC reported in Latin America. Our results support the feasibility of implementing ESD in Chile and indicate good oncological outcomes comparable to those reported in the large Asian series published to date.

Abstract
Purpose Non-curative resection (NCR) remains problematic in some cases of early gastric carcinomas (EGCs) treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). The aim of this study was to identify predictors of NCR, especially of eCura C1 and eCura C2 resections, before ESD and study long-term outcomes of EGC patients with NCR. Patients and Methods A retrospective review of medical records was conducted over an 8-year period for EGCs undergoing ESD. Clinicopathologic and endoscopic characteristics and patients’ survival were analyzed. Risk factors for NCR and eCura C1 and C2 resections were assessed by logistic analyses. Survival of patients was estimated with the Kaplan–Meier method with a Log rank test. Results A total of 463 patients with 472 lesions were qualified. By univariate and multivariate analyses, the predictors for NCR and eCura C2 resections were tumor size >20 mm, tumors located in cardia-fundus, uneven surface, margin elevation, and mixed and undifferentiated types, and those for eCura C1 resection were tumors located in cardia-fundus, negative lifting sign, and mixed and undifferentiated types. The 5-year cancer-specific and cancer-free survival rates were 100.0% and 94.2%, and 95.3% and 83.4% in the curative resection (CR) and NCR groups, respectively. The 5-year cancer-specific and cancer-free survival rates were significantly greater in the CR group than that in the NCR group (P <0.0001). Conclusion In this cohort, we identified various endoscopic and pathologic features of EGCs to predict NCR, especially eCura C1 and eCura C2 resections before ESD. These clinically valuable factors would be very informative to endoscopists and surgeons who perform ESD to resect EGCs.

Abstract
With the ongoing increase in the aging population in Japan, the number of elderly patients among the total population with upper gastrointestinal (GI) neoplasia has also been increasing. As elderly patients present unique age-related variations in their physical condition, the therapeutic approach for upper GI neoplasia should be differentiated between elderly and nonelderly patients. According to the existing guidelines, additional treatment is the standard therapy in patients who undergo endoscopic resection (ER) with a possible risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM) for upper GI neoplasia. However, due to the relatively low rate of LNM, applying additional treatment in all elderly patients may be excessive. Although additional treatment has the advantage of reducing cancer-specific mortality, its disadvantages include deteriorated quality of life, complications, and mortality in surgery. In patients with early gastric cancer, we propose treatment decisions be made using a risk-scoring system for LNM and upon considering the physical condition of the patient after ER with curability C-2. In those with superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with a possible risk of LNM after ER, selective chemoradiotherapy may be a less-invasive treatment option, although the present standard treatment is esophagectomy. When considering the treatment decision, achieving a "cure" of the tumor has been regarded as critical. However, as the main cause of mortality in elderly patients with ER for upper GI neoplasia is noncancer-related death, both achieving a "cure" and also a good level of "care" is important in the management of elderly patients.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is the fourth leading cause of deaths in Poland. The standard treatment for non-advanced gastric cancer is surgery, which significantly reduces the quality of life of patients. The objective of the study was to evaluate the strategy of coping with pain and its control, acceptance of illness, and adjustment to living with cancer in patients suffering from gastric cancer. The analysis of the impact of socio-economic factors on the above-mentioned problems was also analyzed. The study was conducted among 93 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer, treated on an outpatient basis at the Oncology Center-Maria Skłodowska-Curie Institute in Warsaw in 2017-2018. The PAPI (paper and pencil interview) technique was used. The questionnaire interview included metric questions (socio-economic variables) and four psychometric tests: BPCQ (the Beliefs about Pain Control Questionnaire), CSQ (the Pain Coping Strategies Questionnaire), AIS (Acceptance of Illness Scale), and Mini-MAC (Mental Adjustment to Cancer) test. In the area of pain control, patients with gastric cancer assign the greatest role to internal factors (M = 16.34, SD = 4.93), although women obtained the highest value in the impact of physicians. In the area of coping with pain, patients most likely select the strategy of praying/hoping (M = 22.19, SD = 9.36). The mean value of acceptance of illness for patients with gastric cancer is M = 24.02, SD = 7.69, and it is not conditioned by any socio-economic variable. In the area of mental adjustment to illness, the highest values were obtained by positive reevaluation (M = 20.73, SD = 3.35) and fighting spirit (M = 20.68, SD = 3.98). Patients with gastric cancer control pain mainly through internal factors. The most frequently chosen strategy for coping with pain is praying/hoping, and positive reevaluation prevails in the field of mental adjustment. The results point to specific factors that can affect the patient's pain, quality of life, and treatment outcomes. Knowing the diversity of these factors, it is possible to plan specific psychotherapeutic activities for specific groups of people that could be a supplement to the standard treatment process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and health state utility scores of gastric cancer patients in daily life at different clinical stages after treatment, and to explore influencing factors associated with HRQoL. METHODS Gastric cancer patients discharged from hospitals and healthy controls identified by screening were recruited. The three-level EQ-5D was employed to assess HRQoL and was scored using two Chinese-specific tariffs published in 2014 and 2018. RESULTS A total of 1,399 patients and 2,179 healthy controls were recruited. The likelihood of reporting problems in the five dimensions for patients was 4.0-23.8 times higher than controls. Based on the 2014/2018 tariff, the mean EQ-5D utility score was 0.321/0.163 lower than controls, and the mean utility scores of each patient subgroup were 0.077/0.039 (high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia/carcinoma in situ), 0.254/0.121 (Stage I), 0.249/0.123 (Stage II), 0.353/0.182 (Stage III) and 0.591/0.309 (Stage IV) lower than controls (all statistically significant). Age, occupation, duration of illness, other chronic disease status and therapeutic regimen had a significant impact upon different aspects of HRQoL in patients. CONCLUSIONS Gastric cancer significantly impaired patients' HRQoL in daily life after treatment. More advanced cancer stages were associated with larger decrements on health state utility.

BACKGROUND This study will be proposed for investigating the effects of high-quality nursing intervention (HQNI) on the psychological disorder in patients with gastric cancer during perioperative period (GC-PPP). METHODS A cumulative search from inception up to the March 31, 2020 will be performed in the following databases: Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, VIP database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. We will search all potential studies from those electronic databases regardless their language and publication status. We will only consider randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for inclusion, which explores the effect of HQNI on the psychological disorder in patients with GC-PPP. Study identification, information extraction, and study quality appraisal will be independently and respectively done by 2 researchers. Any different opinions between 2 researchers will be disentangled by a third researcher after discussion. Cochrane risk of bias tool will be used for study quality assessment, and RevMan 5.3 software will be utilized for statistical analysis. RESULTS This study will provide a high-quality synthesis of psychological disorder outcomes to evaluate the effects and safety of HQNI for patients with GC-PPP. CONCLUSION The findings of this study will provide reference and evidence to appraise whether HQNI is an effective on the psychological disorder in patients with GC-PPP STUDY REGISTRATION NUMBER:: INPLASY202040080.

Comparison of subjective quality of life after endoscopic submucosal resection or surgery for early gastric cancer. Sci Rep 2020; 10:6680. [PMID: 32317659 PMCID: PMC7174391 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-62854-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2019] [Accepted: 03/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Quality of life (QoL) has become an important issue after early gastric cancer (EGC) treatment. We aimed to compare the QoL of EGC survivors after ESD (n = 241) or laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy (n = 241) without recurrence and to evaluate the QoL over the 5-year period after adjusting for various confounding factors related to QoL. QoL related to the gastric cancer subscale (GCS) was significantly higher in the ESD group than surgery group (p < 0.001). After adjusting for all possible confounding factors, survivors who underwent ESD still had higher QoL related to CSG than those who underwent surgery. On the analysis of interaction effects for all QoL subscales, higher QoL related to GCS of ESD group than those of surgery group has been kept over time (p = 0.983). Therefore, we concluded that EGC survivors who undergo ESD have significantly better QoL related to GCS over a 5-year period after treatment than those who undergo surgery. This may be a useful consideration when selecting treatment modalities for patients with EGC.

Clinical Practice Guideline for Endoscopic Resection of Early Gastrointestinal Cancer. Clin Endosc 2020; 53:142-166. [PMID: 32252507 PMCID: PMC7137564 DOI: 10.5946/ce.2020.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 86] [Impact Index Per Article: 21.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2020] [Accepted: 03/23/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Although surgery was the standard treatment for early gastrointestinal cancers, endoscopic resection is now a standard treatment for early gastrointestinal cancers without regional lymph node metastasis. High-definition white light endoscopy, chromoendoscopy, and image-enhanced endoscopy such as narrow band imaging are performed to assess the edge and depth of early gastrointestinal cancers for delineation of resection boundaries and prediction of the possibility of lymph node metastasis before the decision of endoscopic resection. Endoscopic mucosal resection and/or endoscopic submucosal dissection can be performed to remove early gastrointestinal cancers completely by <i>en bloc</i> fashion. Histopathological evaluation should be carefully made to investigate the presence of risk factors for lymph node metastasis such as depth of cancer invasion and lymphovascular invasion. Additional treatment such as radical surgery with regional lymphadenectomy should be considered if the endoscopically resected specimen shows risk factors for lymph node metastasis. This is the first Korean clinical practice guideline for endoscopic resection of early gastrointestinal cancer. This guideline was developed by using mainly de novo methods and encompasses endoscopic management of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, early gastric cancer, and early colorectal cancer. This guideline will be revised as new data on early gastrointestinal cancer are collected.
