Correlation between mismatch repair and survival of patients with gastric cancer after 5-FU-based adjuvant chemotherapy
ConclusionTo our knowledge, this is the first prospective study to specifically explore the correlation between MMR and survival of patients with gastric cancer after 5-FU-based adjuvant chemotherapy. The results showed that gastric cancer patients with pMMR can benefit from 5-FU-based adjuvant chemotherapy, but those with dMMR cannot. Among pMMR patients, lower PLR and SII values with surgery alone and lower NLRs in those receiving 5-FU-based adjuvant chemotherapy were associated with higher DFS and OS.

New insight on the correlation of immune landscapes with immune markers expression in different risk classification of gastrointestinal stromal tumors
ConclusionsWe first reported that GIST cells could express OX40L, patients with high OX40L experienced longer RFS. The colocalization of OX40L with immune cells indicates that OX40L could be a promising potential target for immunotherapy in GIST. (Source: Journal of Gastroenterology)

Splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection decreases the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma for cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension bleeding: a 10-year retrospective follow-up study based on the inverse probability of treatment weighting method
ConclusionsConsidering the better postoperative survival and the ability to prevent HCC in CPH patients with gastroesophageal variceal bleeding and secondary hypersplenism, LSD is worth popularization in situations where liver donors are scarce. (Source: Journal of Gastroenterology)
