In Regard to Ying Li et al.

We read with interest the systematic review and meta-analysis by Li et al1 comparing lower and higher radiation doses for operable esophageal/gastroesophageal junction carcinoma. This is a topical article, with several other recent systematic reviews and meta-analyses reporting on high-dose relative to low-dose chemoradiation therapy.2,3 In contrast to some other meta-analyses, the article by Li et al reports that neoadjuvant chemotherapy with low-dose radiation therapy may offer superior overall survival, progression-free survival, toxicity, and distant failure rates compared with high-dose radiation therapy.
