Predicting survival in locally advanced gastric cancer using prognostic factors - neoadjuvant rectal score and downstaging depth score

CONCLUSION: In summary, our research indicates that NAR score and DDS may serve as useful prognostic markers for predicting overall survival in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer who receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by curative surgery. Patients with high DDS and low NAR scores were found to have better prognoses.PMID:38568130
