Family history and gastric cancer incidence and mortality in Asia: a pooled analysis of more than half a million participants. Gastric Cancer 2024; 27:701-713.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The family history of gastric cancer holds important implications for cancer surveillance and prevention, yet existing evidence predominantly comes from case-control studies. We aimed to investigate the association between family history of gastric cancer and gastric cancer risk overall and by various subtypes in Asians in a prospective study. METHODS We included 12 prospective cohorts with 550,508 participants in the Asia Cohort Consortium. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to estimate study-specific adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between family history of gastric cancer and gastric cancer incidence and mortality, then pooled using random-effects meta-analyses. Stratified analyses were performed for the anatomical subsites and histological subtypes. RESULTS During the mean follow-up of 15.6 years, 2258 incident gastric cancers and 5194 gastric cancer deaths occurred. The risk of incident gastric cancer was higher in individuals with a family history of gastric cancer (HR 1.44, 95% CI 1.32-1.58), similarly in males (1.44, 1.31-1.59) and females (1.45, 1.23-1.70). Family history of gastric cancer was associated with both cardia (HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.00-1.60) and non-cardia subsites (1.49, 1.35-1.65), and with intestinal- (1.48, 1.30-1.70) and diffuse-type (1.59, 1.35-1.87) gastric cancer incidence. Positive associations were also found for gastric cancer mortality (HR 1.30, 95% CI 1.19-1.41). CONCLUSIONS In this largest prospective study to date on family history and gastric cancer, a familial background of gastric cancer increased the risk of gastric cancer in the Asian population. Targeted education, screening, and intervention in these high-risk groups may reduce the burden of gastric cancer.

Abstract
Cancer poses intricate challenges to treatment due to its complexity and diversity. Ferroptosis and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are emerging as innovative therapeutic avenues amid the evolving landscape of cancer therapy. Extensive investigations into circRNAs reveal their diverse roles, ranging from molecular regulators to pivotal influencers of ferroptosis in cancer cell lines. The results underscore the significance of circRNAs in modulating molecular pathways that impact crucial aspects of cancer development, including cell survival, proliferation, and metastasis. A detailed analysis delineates these pathways, shedding light on the molecular mechanisms through which circRNAs influence ferroptosis. Building upon recent experimental findings, the study evaluates the therapeutic potential of targeting circRNAs to induce ferroptosis. By identifying specific circRNAs associated with the etiology of cancer, this analysis paves the way for the development of targeted therapeutics that exploit vulnerabilities in cancer cells. This review consolidates the existing understanding of ferroptosis and circRNAs, emphasizing their role in cancer therapy and providing impetus for ongoing research in this dynamic field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer ranks fourth in terms of global cancer-related deaths. Timely identification of high-risk populations is crucial to reduce mortality. Although a family history of gastric cancer increases risk, European and British guidelines report weak recommendations and low-quality evidence about the management of these patients. AIM To quantify the association in case-control studies of patients with gastric cancer with first-degree relatives with gastric cancer compared to those who do not. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of case-control studies up to November 2023. Data extraction was performed independently by two reviewers. The heterogeneity of effects across studies was quantified by I2 . We calculated odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) using random effects models. RESULTS We included 30 studies in the systematic review. In all studies, a first-degree family history of gastric cancer represented a risk factor for gastric cancer. We included 21 studies on the risk of gastric cancer. There was a significantly increased association between gastric cancer and having first-degree relative(s) with gastric cancer, but with significant heterogeneity among studies (OR = 2.92; 95% CI 2.402-3.552; p < 0.001; I2 = 81.85%; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION This meta-analysis highlights the relevance of patients' family history of gastric cancer and the importance of this risk factor for the early detection of neoplastic conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to determine the male and female frequency of diffuse gastric cancer (DGC), the age at diagnosis, and the country of origin in a selected population with germline CDH1 variants from families with the hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC) syndrome. METHODS Relevant literature dating from 1998 to 2021 was systematically searched for data on CDH1 gene. The Wilcoxon rank sum test and the Chi-square test were used to estimate if the difference observed between patients with gastric cancer (GC) and unaffected individuals was significant. RESULTS We identified 80 families fulfilling the established clinical criteria for HDGC CDH1 genetic screening. There were more women than men with DGC and germline CDH1 variant (65.5%). Stratifying the age at diagnosis, we identified an association between DGC, positive CDH1 screening and young women (≤ 40 years) (p = 0.015). The mean age at diagnosis was 39.6 ys for women and 42.5 ys for men. There was an association between CDH1 carrier status and DGC (p = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS Young women carrying germline CDH1 variants with DGC are comparatively frequent in the HDGC syndrome, and potentially at higher risk to develop DGC particularly in low-incidence areas for GC.

Efficacy and safety of triple therapy containing berberine hydrochloride, amoxicillin, and rabeprazole in the eradication of Helicobacter pylori. J Dig Dis 2022; 23:568-576.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate the effectiveness and safety of triple therapy containing berberine, amoxicillin, and rabeprazole in the eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). METHODS This prospective, randomized controlled, open-label, noninferiority trial included treatment-naive patients with H. pylori infection who were randomly allocated at a ratio of 1:1 into the berberine triple therapy group (berberine hydrochloride 300 mg thrice daily, amoxicillin 1 g twice daily, and rabeprazole 10 mg twice daily) or standard bismuth-containing quadruple therapy group (amoxicillin 1 g twice daily, rabeprazole 10 mg twice daily, clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily, and bismuth tartrate 200 mg twice daily) for 14 days. Negative 13 C/14 C-urea breath test at 4 weeks after completion of the therapy was regarded as successful eradication. RESULTS Altogether 262 and 262 patients received berberine triple therapy and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy, respectively. Both intention-to-treat (79.8% vs 80.9%, P = 0.742) and per-protocol analyses (83.6% and 85.1%, P = 0.636) showed comparable eradication rate between the two groups, indicating a noninferior eradication rate (the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval over -10% [-7.9% and -7.87%, respectively]). Adverse events more commonly occurred in the bismuth-containing quadruple-therapy group (8.8% vs 16.0%, P = 0.012), while patient compliance and symptom improvement of the two regimens were comparable. CONCLUSION Triple therapy containing berberine, amoxicillin and rabeprazole is noninferior to bismuth-containing quadruple therapy in the initial treatment for H. pylori eradication.
