Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths, with a relatively high incidence among the elderly population. Surgical resection is the mainstay treatment for GC and is currently the only cure. However, the incidence of postoperative intraabdominal infections remains high and seriously affects the prognosis. This study aimed to explore the risk factors for intraabdominal infections after radical gastrectomy in elderly patients and to establish and validate a risk prediction model. We collected the clinical data of 322 GC patients, who underwent radical gastrectomy at the General Surgery Department of China Medical University Dandong Central Hospital from January 2016 to January 2023. The patients were divided into an infected group (n = 27) and a noninfected group (n = 295) according to whether intraabdominal infections occurred postoperatively. A nomogram risk prediction model for the occurrence of postoperative intraabdominal infections was developed. All patients were randomized into a training set (n = 225) and a validation set (n = 97) in a 7:3 ratio, and the model was internally validated. Of the 322 patients, 27 (8.3%) experienced postoperative intraabdominal infections. Single-factor analysis revealed associations of intraabdominal infection with body mass index, glucose, hemoglobin, albumin, and other factors. The multifactorial analysis confirmed that body mass index, glucose, hemoglobin, albumin, surgical duration, and bleeding volume were independent risk factors for intraabdominal infections. The nomogram constructed based on these factors demonstrated excellent performance in both the training and validation sets. A nomogram model was developed and validated to predict the risk of intraabdominal infection after radical gastrectomy. The model has a good predictive performance, which could help clinicians prevent the occurrence of intraabdominal infections after radical gastrectomy in elderly patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of a precision-based tertiary care protocol, including participatory dietary care, on the nutritional status, immune function, and quality of life in gastric cancer patients after radical gastrectomy. METHODS The clinical and laboratory data of 124 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer at the Second People's Hospital of Lanzhou City from June 2020 to May 2022 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The patients were grouped into a control group of 54 patients who received standard care and a study group of 70 patients who additionally received detailed tertiary care and bundled nutritional interventions. The clinical data (age, gender, surgical method, clinical staging, chemotherapy regimen, histories of diabetes, hypertension, smoking, alcohol consumption, time to first flatus and bowel movement, time to first liquid intake, length of hospital stay, complications at discharge, PG-SGA score, and QLQ-C30 score) and lab indices (serum albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA), transferrin (TRF), hemoglobin (Hb), immunoglobulin A (IgA), M (IgM), and G (IgG)) were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Study group had significantly higher levels of ALB, PA, TRF, Hb, IgA, IgM, and IgG compared to the control group after intervention (all P<0.001). QLQ-C30 score was higher while PG-SGA score was lower in the study group (both P<0.01). Postoperative digestive system recovery was faster in the study group, as evidenced by a shorter time to first anal defecation, bowel movement, liquid food intake, and hospital stay (P<0.001). Complication rate was significantly lower in the study group (P<0.05). Cox regression analysis showed age (P=0.021) and clinical stage (P=0.039) as independent prognostic factors, while treatment regimen was not (P>0.05). CONCLUSION Precision-based tertiary care protocol can improve nutritional status, enhance immune function, and facilitate faster postoperative recovery for gastric cancer patients following gastrectomy, thus greatly improving the quality of life of the patient. However, age and clinical staging, rather than the care protocol, are independent prognostic factors for patients' 1-year survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was designed to investigate incidences of surgeons' mental distress following severe complications after radical gastrectomy. METHODS A cross-sectional survey was conducted between 1 June 2021 and 30 September 2021 among Chinese general and/or gastrointestinal surgeons who experienced severe complications after radical gastrectomy. The clinical features collected in the questionnaire included: (i) feeling burnout, anxiety, or depression; (ii) avoiding radical gastrectomy or feeling stress, slowing down the process during radical gastrectomy operations; (iii) having physical reactions, including heart pounding, trouble breathing, or sweating while recalling; (iv) having urges to quit being a surgeon; (v) taking psychiatric medications; and (vi) seeking psychological counselling. Analyses were performed to identify risk factors of severe mental distress, which was defined as meeting three or more of the above-mentioned clinical features. RESULTS A total of 1062 valid questionnaires were received. The survey showed that most of the participating surgeons (69.02%) had at least one clinical feature of mental distress following severe complications after radical gastrectomy, and more than 25% of the surgeons suffered from severe mental distress. Surgeons from non-university affiliated hospitals, the junior surgeons, and existing violent doctor-patient conflicts were recognized as independent risk factors for surgeons' severe mental distress related to the severe complications after radical gastrectomy. CONCLUSIONS About 70% of surgeons had mental health problems following severe complications after radical gastrectomy, and more than 25% of the surgeons suffered from severe mental distress. More strategies and policies are needed to improve the mental well-being of these surgeons after such incidences.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the value of Onodera's prognostic nutrition index (PNI) in patients with gastric neuroendocrine cancer (G-NEC). METHODS The clinical data on 148 cases of G-NEC presented between March 2010 and April 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The relationship between the clinical characteristics of the patients and PNI was analyzed. Optimal PNI cutoff values for G-NEC prognosis prediction were calculated using the X-tile software. The survival curves were created using the Kaplan-Meier method. A Cox proportional hazards model was also established to identify independent prognostic factors that impact the prognosis of patients with G-NEC. RESULTS The median overall survival (OS) rate was 30 months (range 6-127 months), and the OS rates at 1, 3 and 5 years were 89.2, 71.6 and 68.2%, respectively. The mean PNI of the 148 patients before the operation was 49.5 ± 8.0. The mean PNI of patients with anemia (p < 0.001) and abnormal carcinoembryonic antigen (p = 0.039) was significantly lower than that of patients without such comorbidities. The mean PNI of patients with Stage III tumors (p < 0.001) and postoperative complications was significantly lower (p = 0.005). PNI optimal cutoff values were 50 (p < 0.001). Based on the cut-off value of the PNI, these patients were divided into a PNI-high group (PNI ≥ 50.0, n = 77) and a PNI-low group (PNI < 50.0, n = 71). The PNI-high group had a significantly better 5-years OS rate compared with the PNI-low group (76.6% vs. 59.2%, χ2 = 14.7, p < 0. 001). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that PNI and pathological stage were independent prognostic factors for patients with G-NEC. In the subgroup analysis, OS rates were significantly lower in the PNI-low group than in the PNI-high group among patients with stage I and stage III of the disease. CONCLUSION The PNI is a simple and useful marker for predicting long-term outcomes in G-NEC patients regardless of tumor stage. Based on our results, we suggest that PNI should be included in routine assessments of patients with G-NEC.

Abstract
Background There are significant differences in terms of the pathophysiology and clinical manifestations between intra- and extra-luminal bleeding, and it is also difficult to determine the reasonable management of the bleeding. This study is to analyze the clinical characteristics of postoperative bleeding in gastric cancer, and to explore the management of postoperative intra-intestinal and extra-intestinal bleeding. Methods We collected the clinical data of 2,978 patients with gastric cancer from the Department of Surgery, Fujian Cancer Hospital, from May 2014 to September 2019. A total gastrectomy or a distal or proximal subtotal gastrectomy with regional lymph node dissection (D1+ or D2) was included. The clinic data and management of both early (postoperative days ≤6 d) and delayed (postoperative days ≥7 d) post-operative hemorrhage were explored. This retrospective study is to compare the clinical characteristics and treatment of intra-intestinal and extra-intestinal hemorrhage. Results The incidence of postoperative bleeding in gastric cancer was 2.85% (n=85), and the bleeding-related mortality was 4.7% (4/85). There were 67 men and 18 women, and four patients died, with a bleeding-related mortality rate of 4.7%. There were 46 cases of intra-intestinal hemorrhage and 39 cases of extra-intestinal hemorrhage. The reoperation rate in the extraneous bleeding group was higher than that in the intra-intestinal bleeding group (66.67% vs. 19.57%, P<0.001), and the incidence of delayed bleeding in the extra-intestinal bleeding group was higher than that in the intra-intestinal bleeding group (46.15% vs. 8.70%, P<0.001). In the delayed phase, 11 patients underwent reoperation to stop the bleeding, and three patients died due to bleeding-related complications. Hemostasis was successfully achieved in four patients by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE). In the reoperation group, 72.73% (8/11) suffered hemodynamic instability and 63.64% (7/11) had an abdominal infection, while in the TAE group, 25% (1/4) had hemodynamic instability and 50% (2/4) had an abdominal infection. Conclusions A greater number of gastric cancer patients with intra-intestinal hemorrhage are treated conservatively, while more patients with extra-intestinal hemorrhage are treated by reoperation. External bleeding is more likely to occur in the delayed period of bleeding. TAE is a safe and effective means of hemostasis if the hemodynamics is stable.

Abstract
Background Pulmonary infection is one of the most common postoperative complications after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC) and is associated with a poorer prognosis. This study aimed to investigate potential predictive factors for pulmonary infection in elderly GC patients. Methods This study retrospectively enrolled 346 elderly GC patients undergoing elective radical gastrectomy between January 2017 and December 2020. Pulmonary infection within postoperative 30 days was set as the primary observational endpoint. The baseline demographic, clinicopathological, and laboratory data were compared between patients with or without pulmonary infection. ROC curves were plotted to evaluate the cut-off and predictive values of factors. Binary univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to determine risk factors for postoperative pulmonary infection. Results Of the enrolled 346 patients, pulmonary infection was observed in 51 patients within postoperative 30 days, with an incidence of 14.7%. mFI was a significant predictor for pulmonary infection by ROC curve analysis (AUC: 0.770, P < 0.001). Moreover, preoperative mFI was the only independent risk factor for pulmonary infection (OR: 2.72, 95% CI: 2.02–3.31, P = 0.011) by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Conclusion Our study indicates that mFI independently predicts pulmonary infection in elderly GC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reoperation due to elective surgery complications is very mentally, physically, and economically detrimental to patients. This study investigated the potential risk factors associated with early reoperation after radical gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients and included an in-depth analysis of these risk factors. METHODS This retrospective study reviewed 1568 patients with gastric cancer. Grade 3 or greater complications were defined as severe. Any factors related to reoperation after radical gastrectomy were analyzed in patients with severe local complications. RESULTS Among 1537 patients undergoing radical gastrectomy, 115 (7.5%) patients had severe postoperative complications, 98 (6.38%) of whom experienced severe local complications. The most common local complication was anastomotic leakage (31, 2.02%), followed by intra-abdominal abscess (30, 1.95%), pancreatic leakage (22, 1.43%), duodenal stump leakage (18, 1.17%), intra-abdominal bleeding (12, .78%), intraluminal bleeding (8, .52%), small bowel obstruction (5, .32%), and chyle leakage (3, .19%). Of these patients, 26 (1.69%) underwent reoperation, and 6 (.39%) died. In the univariate analysis of clinical factors related to reoperation, intra-abdominal bleeding and small bowel obstruction were risk factors for reoperation, and intra-abdominal bleeding (odds ratio [OR] = 9.57, confidence interval [CI] = 2.65-40.20, P < .001) and small bowel obstruction (OR = 19.14, CI = 2.60-390.13, P = .011) were independent risk factors associated with reoperation in the multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION Intra-abdominal bleeding and small bowel obstruction are independent risk factors for reoperation following radical gastrectomy. Patients with postoperative intra-abdominal bleeding and small bowel obstruction need to be warned about reoperation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the occurrence of postoperative complications in and factors influencing the prognosis of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS A total of 238 patients with gastric cancer were enrolled in this study. There were 194 patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery and 44 patients who underwent concurrent radiochemotherapy before surgery. The clinical data of patients and the incidence of postoperative complications were collected. Postoperative complications were graded based on the Clavien-Dindo classification. The impact of postoperative complications on the prognosis of patients was analysed. RESULTS (1) The overall incidence of postoperative complications was 17.2% (41/238) among all patients. A total of 49 patients experienced postoperative complications, including 12 cases of grade I, 15 cases of grade II, seven cases of grade IIIa, three cases of grade IIIb, seven cases of grade IV, and four cases of grade V complications. A total of 21 patients experienced severe complications. Multivariate analysis indicated that age, body mass index (BMI), and scope of gastrectomy were independent risk factors for postoperative complications (p < .05). (2) The five-year survival rate for the entire group of patients was 58.4%. The five-year survival rate for the complication group and non-complication group were 31.7% and 51.7%, respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups (χ2=15.41p = .000). Based on the severity of complications, the subgroup analysis indicated that the five-year survival rate for patients with severe postoperative complications was 21.1% and that for patients with non-severe complications was 40.9%; the difference was significant (χ2=21.70, p = .000). (3) Multivariate analysis indicated that age, pathological tumour, node, and metastasis (ypTNM) stages II-III, operation time >3.5 h, total gastrectomy, and postoperative complications were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Postoperative adjuvant therapy was an independent protective factor for patient prognosis (p < .05). CONCLUSION The incidence of complications in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy is closely correlated with patient age and the scope of surgical resection, and the occurrence of severe complications has a significant adverse effect on patient prognosis.

Abstract
The purpose of paper is to investigate the depression and anxiety as well as independent influential factors between patients who underwent Da Vinci robot-assisted radical gastrectomy and radical gastrectomy. This study is a partially randomized patient preference trial. A total of 98 patients with gastric cancer were divided into the Da Vinci robot-assisted radical gastrectomy group (46 patients, observation group) and open radical gastrectomy group (52 patients, control group). They were also postoperatively and preoperatively measured with Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). The postoperative and preoperative data of each group were compared. The postoperative and preoperative standard scores of SDS and SAS in patients with the observation group were NS differences (P > 0.05). In the conventional control group, the postoperative mean scores of SDS and SAS were significantly higher than those in the preoperative mean scores and the postoperative mean scores of the observation group, respectively (P < 0.01). The multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the independent influential factors of depression and anxiety in patients with radical gastrectomy included tumor, node, metastases stage, pain grading, other postoperative complications and postoperative insomnia (P < 0.05). Robot-assisted radical gastrectomy for gastric carcinoma is conductive to relieving patients' anxiety and depression and improving their quality of life due to the advantages of relatively low incidence of pain, reduced complications and relatively good sleep.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical value of indocyanine green (ICG) in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy remains controversial. We performed this meta-analysis to investigate the safety and efficacy of ICG fluorescence imaging-guided radical gastrectomy. METHODS All relevant studies published until 30 October 2020 were retrieved from several databases. Fixed- and random-effects models were used to analyze the results based on different heterogeneity levels. Data were expressed as odds ratios or weighted mean differences along with 95% confidence intervals. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system scale was used for quality of evidence evaluation. RESULTS This meta-analysis included six cohort studies that investigated 622 patients. Compared with conventional radical gastrectomy, ICG fluorescence imaging-guided gastrectomy facilitates complete lymph node dissection, reduces intraoperative blood loss, and shortens the length of postoperative hospitalization. Moreover, we observed no significant intergroup differences in the operative time, first exhaust time, and postoperative complications. CONCLUSION ICG fluorescence imaging-guided radical gastrectomy scores over conventional gastrectomy and appears to be a promising approach in patients who require radical gastrectomy. However, further research is warranted to explore the potential long-term survival benefit of ICG fluorescence imaging in patients with gastric cancer.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the related factors of pathological complete response(pCR)of patients with gastric cancer treated by neoadjuvant therapy and resection,and to analyze the risk factors of prognosis. Methods The clinical and pathological data of 490 patients with gastric cancer who received neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical gastrectomy from January to December in 2008 were retrospectively analyzed.Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the risk factors affecting pCR and prognosis. Results Among the 490 patients,41 achieved pCR,and the overall pCR rate was 8.3%(41/490).The pCR rate was 16.0% in the neoadjuvant chemoradiation group and 6.4% in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy group.The results of multivariate analysis showed that neoadjuvant chemoradiation(OR=4.401,95% CI=2.023-9.574,P<0.001)and preoperative therapeutic response as partial response(OR=40.492,95% CI=5.366-305.572,P<0.001)were independent predictors of pCR after neoadjuvant therapy.Multivariate analysis of prognosis showed that poorly differentiated tumor(HR=1.809,95% CI=1.104-2.964,P=0.019),gastric cardia-fundus-body tumor(HR=2.025,95% CI=1.497-2.739,P<0.001),≤15 intraoperative dissected lymph nodes(HR=1.482,95% CI=1.059-2.073,P=0.022),and postoperative complications(HR=1.625,95% CI=1.156-2.285,P=0.005)were independent risk factors for prognosis,while pCR(HR=0.153,95% CI=0.048-0.484,P=0.001)and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy(HR=0.589,95% CI=0.421-0.823,P<0.001)were independent protective factors of prognosis. Conclusions Patients who achieved pCR after neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced gastric cancer might have promising long-term survival,and pCR is an independent predictor for overall survival.Compared with chemotherapy alone,preoperative chemoradiotherapy can significantly improve the pCR rate of patients with locally advanced gastric cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study discusses and analyzes the effects of uncut Roux-en-Y anastomosis on the postoperative complications and quality of life of gastric cancer patients after they undergo laparoscopic total gastrectomies. METHODS 86 patients admitted to our hospital for laparoscopic digestive tract reconstruction after distal gastrectomies were recruited as the study cohort and divided into group A (n=41) or group B (n=45) on the basis of the different digestive tract reconstruction surgery each patient underwent. The group-A patients underwent traditional Roux-en-Y anastomosis, and the group-B patients underwent uncut Roux-en-Y anastomosis. The operation outcomes, the early and late postoperative complications, the decline in the postoperative nutrition status, and the changes in the postoperative quality of life scores were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The intraoperative anastomosis times and the blood losses, the postoperative ventilation, the liquid food intake times, and the hospitalization durations in group B were lower than they were in group A (P<0.05). The incidences of early and late postoperative complications in group A was significantly higher than they were in group B (P<0.05). The decrease of the TP, ALB, and Hb levels in group B was dramatically lower than it was in group A at 6 months after the surgeries (P<0.05), and no significant difference in the TP, ALB, or Hb levels was observed between the two groups at 12 months after the surgeries (P>0.05). The QOL scores in the two groups of patients were increased at 6 and 12 months after the surgeries compared with 1 month after the surgeries (P<0.05). The QOL scores in group B were notably higher than they were in group A at 6 and 12 months after the surgeries (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Uncut Roux-en-Y anastomosis after laparoscopic total gastrectomy is simple to carry out. The method can promote patients' early postoperative recovery, reduce their early and late complications, and maintain their postoperative nutritional status, thus improving their postoperative quality of life, so it is worthy of clinical promotion.

Abstract
Purpose Gastric cancer is a common tumor type associated with nutritional and immune status. The aim of the current study was to investigate the prognostic value of a preoperative prognostic nutritional index (PNI), composed of nutritional factors and immune factors in elderly patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery. Patients and Methods A total of 454 patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery were divided into two groups based on preoperative PNI scores: ≤45.1 (n = 307) and >45.1 (n = 147). Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Log rank tests. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to identify independent prognostic factors using a Cox proportional hazards model. Results According to the X-tile program, the optimal cutoff value for predicting overall survival (OS) with the PNI was 45.1. The receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that PNI exhibited 70.6% sensitivity and 56.5% specificity for predicting death during long-term follow-up. The cumulative incidence of postoperative 4-year mortality indicated that the risk of death increased significantly for PNI ≤45.1. In multivariate analysis, preoperative PNI was a significant independent predictor of mortality. In the age-stratified subgroup analysis, preoperative PNI was more sensitive for the old elderly subgroup than for the young elderly subgroup. Conclusion Preoperative PNI is a sensitive and specific prognostic predictor among elderly patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery.

Abstract
Aim Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) gradually shortens the length of stay but increases the rate of unplanned readmission after discharge. Currently, objective discharge criteria for patients after radical gastrectomy is lacking. This study aimed to construct and validate a nomogram for estimation of the possibility of safe discharge on the fifth-day post radical gastrectomy. Methods We enrolled 496 consecutive patients undergoing radical gastrectomy as the development cohort. After the fifth day of surgery, patients were assigned to the postoperative complication group and no postoperative complication group. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed for both groups. Then, we constructed the risk prediction model of postoperative severe complications (PSCs) and applied it to evaluate whether the patient could be discharged safely. The external validation cohort comprised 245 patients, whom we used to evaluate the capability of our model to predict the risk of PSCs. The primary measure was the negative predictive rate (NPR) and the area under the curve (AUC). Results Through multivariate analysis, gender, maximum body temperature on the 4th postoperative day (POD4), oral intake and ambulatory duration on POD4, the proportion of neutrophils (≥75% or <75%) and pain score (≥4 or <4) on POD5, and defecation with 5 days after the procedure (yes or no) were identified as independent predictors for PSCs. Upon incorporation of these variables, the nomogram demonstrated a good NPR of 0.957 and 0.916 and AUC of 0.918 and 0.719 in the two cohorts, respectively. With a nomogram score of 110, patients were stratified into low and high risk of PSCs. Conclusion The nomogram demonstrated good predictive potential for low-risk patients. It could serve as an objective safe discharge approach for patients after the fifth day of radical gastrectomy.

Abstract
Background The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) play an important role in the prognosis of several cancers, but their prognostic value in patients with stage II-III gastric cancer (GC) is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the RDW-NLR (R-NLR) score based on RDW and NLR in stage II-III GC patients after radical surgery. Methods Preoperative RDW and NLR clinicopathological data were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed from stage II-III GC patients who underwent radical gastrectomy. The optimal cut-off values for pre-RDW-variation coefficient (pre-RDW-cv) and pre-NLR were defined as 14.10% and 2.015, respectively. The R-NLR score was defined as 2 (both elevated RDW and NLR), 1 (one of these was elevated), or 0 (neither were elevated). Prognostic factors were identified by univariate and multivariate analyses. Results A total of 151 patients were included in this study, and 65 (43.05%), 54 (35.76%), and 32 (21.19%) patients had an R-NLR score of 0, 1 and 2, respectively. The preoperative R-NLR score was significantly correlated with tumor size and gender (all P<0.05). The 5-year overall survival (OS) in the R-NLR 0, 1, and 2 groups was 52.30%, 44.40%, and 31.20%, respectively (P=0.031), while the 5-year DFS was 47.70%, 13.30%, and 18.80%, respectively (P<0.001). Further, while the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate was significantly improved in low RDW-cv and NLR patients compared with those with high RDW-cv and NLR (all P<0.05), but not OS (all P>0.05). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the R-NLR score was independently correlated with OS [hazard ratio (HR), 1.527; P=0.007] and DFS (HR, 1.939; P=0.001). Conclusions We validated the preoperative R-NLR score to be a promising predictor for stage II-III GC patients who have undergone radical gastrectomy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the application value of goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) in patients undergoing laparoscopy-assisted radical gastrectomy with fast-track anesthesia. METHODS From December 2016 to December 2019, 74 patients who underwent laparoscopy-assisted radical gastrectomy under the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in gastrointestinal Surgery department of Tongling People's Hospital were selected as research participants. They were divided into two groups: the routine group (patients were treated with conventional fluids) (n=37) and the GDFT group (patients were treated with GDFT) (n=37). In the two groups, patients were compared in terms of intraoperative fluid inflow and outflow, hemodynamic indexes before operation for 30 min (T0), after anesthesia induction for 30 min (T1), during operation for 0.5 h (T2) and 1.5 h (T3) and after operation (T4), postoperative complications, postoperative recovery, mini-mental state examination (MMSE) scores on the first day (d0) before operation and the first day (d1), the third day (d2) and the seventh day (d3) after operation, and inflammatory factor levels. RESULTS The amount of crystal input, colloid, blood loss, fluid replacement and urine volume in the GDFT group were significantly less than those in the routine group (P < 0.05). From T1 to T4, the values of mean arterial pressure (MAP) and central venous pressure (CVP) in the GDFT group were higher than those in the routine group (p < 0.05). The total incidence of postoperative complications in the GDFT group was lower than that in the routine group (P < 0.05). Compared with those in the routine group, the postoperative anus exhaust time, the first time of starting to eat, the time of leaving bed, the duration of stay in the postanesthesia care unit and the hospital stay were significantly shorter in the GDFT group (P < 0.05). From D1 to D3, the MMSE score in the GDFT group was higher than that in the routine group, while the levels of C-reactive protein (CPR), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and procalcitonin (PCT) were lower than those in the routine group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION GDFT has a better effect on the rapid rehabilitation of patients undergoing laparoscopy-assisted radical gastrectomy during fast-track anesthesia, and it also has a positive effect on maintaining the stability of hemodynamics, reducing systemic inflammation and decreasing postoperative complications.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explore the effects of lidocaine on postoperative quality of recovery (QoR) and immune function in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. Methods In total, 135 patients were enrolled and were equally randomized to receive low-dose lidocaine (Group LL: 1.5 mg/kg bolus followed by an infusion at 1.0 mg/kg/hour) or high-dose lidocaine (Group HL: 1.5 mg/kg bolus followed by an infusion at 2.0 mg/kg/hour) or Controls (Group C: received a volume-matched normal saline at the same rate). The primary outcome was a QoR-40 score on postoperative day (POD) 1. Secondary outcomes were a QoR-40 score on POD 3, levels of inflammatory factors (IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α) and CD4+T cells, CD8+T cells proportions, and CD4+/CD8+ cell ratios and postoperative recovery of bowel function. Results There were no statistically significant differences in patient characteristics at baseline. The total QoR-40 scores on POD 1 in Group HL (171.4±3.89) were higher than those in Group LL (166.20±4.05) and in Group C (163.40±4.38) (adjusted P<0.001). Differences in the dimension scores of QoR-40 for pain, physical comfort, and emotional state were significant across the three groups. Lidocaine administration significantly reduced the release of IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and attenuated immune changes induced by trauma. Kaplan–Meier curves showed that the median time to the first exhaust and defecation were shorter in the Group HL than in Groups LL and C (1.55 days vs 2.4 days vs 2.6 days, log rank P<0.0001; and 2.86 days vs 3.22 days vs 3.46 days, log rank P=0.002, respectively). Additionally, patients in lidocaine groups required less remifentanil consumption and experienced lower pain intensity, compared with the control group. Conclusion Systemic lidocaine improved postoperative recovery, alleviated inflammation and immunosuppression, and accelerated the return of bowel function, and is thus, worthy of clinical application.

Abstract
Aim To discover the value of contrast-enhanced CT parameters in predicting the prognosis of gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) patients after radical gastrectomy. Methods The patients with a clinical diagnosis of GAC were retrospectively enrolled. Two radiologists drew the regions of interest (ROIs) in CT images and measured the CT attenuate value (CAV) in each phase and the corrected CAV (cCAV) in each contrast-enhanced phase. Patients were divided into two groups (high/low-enhancement) according to receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Kaplan–Meier curve and Cox proportional hazards regression analysis were performed to evaluate correlation between prognosis and variables. Subgroup analysis was used to further analyze the prognostic value of variables. Results In total 435 patients were included. According to ROC curve, the cCAV in delayed phase (DP-cCAV) with maximum AUC and Youden index was chosen. A total of 312 patients (71.7%) entered DP-cCAVlow group and remaining 123 (28.3%) patients were in DP-cCAVhigh group. According to univariate (high vs low, HR=2.120, p<0.001) and multivariate (high vs low, HR=1.623, p<0.001) Cox regression analysis, the low-enhancement state was considered as an independent protective factor. Subgroup analysis was based on age, maximum diameter of tumor, differentiation, vascular invasion status, and TNM staging. In most subgroups, the overall survival (OS) of DP-cCAVlow group was overwhelmingly satisfactory (all HR >1, expect TNM stage I, IV and differentiated type subgroups). Conclusion The prognostic effectiveness of CT parameters as biomarkers for OS in GAC patients treated with radical gastrectomy has potential value.

Abstract
Background What is the optimal neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) regimen for locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) remains debatable. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of docetaxel+oxaliplatin+S-1 (DOS) vs oxaliplatin+S-1 (SOX) as NAC for LAGC. Methods Data of 248 LAGC patients who received either DOS or SOX as NAC in our hospital between January 2010 and January 2018 were reviewed retrospectively. Propensity score matched (PSM) analysis was applied to minimize the selection bias in both groups. Prognostic factors were screened by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. Results Of the 248 LAGC patients included, 180 patients were subjected to the PSM analysis. Patients in DOS group showed a better tumor response to NAC, higher radical resection rate and R0 resection rate than those in SOX group. The overall survival (OS) rate in DOS group was better than that in SOX group, although the overall incidence of Grade 3/4 NAC-related toxicity in DOS group was higher, as represented by leukopenia and neutropenia. Multivariate analysis revealed that the NAC regimen, cTNM stage and the R0 resection rate were independent prognostic factors. In addition, patients with TLND less than 16 population showed a worse OS rate. Subgroup analysis indicated that patients benefited from the addition of docetaxel regardless of the clinical T stage, but those with high clinical N stages (N2-3) did not. Conclusion DOS is a safe and feasible NAC regimen for LAGC, which is worth popularizing in clinical practice.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer in the world and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Signet-ring cell type is the most malicious subtype. We report a case of advanced stage gastric adenocarcinoma case post-radical gastrectomy who presented with nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Though there were no signs of bowel obstruction on abdominal CT and PET imagine studies, and the cytology of body fluid was initially negative, the patient had unilateral malignant pleural effusion, a moderate amount of ascites and bilateral hydronephrosis. After laparoscopic surgery, the patient was diagnosed with local cancer relapse causing jejunojejunal anastomosis obstruction and peritoneal carcinomatosis causing hydronephrosis. We urge broadening the indication of EGD in the evaluation of advanced stage gastric carcinoma to include mechanic bowel obstruction.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the prognostic significance of the eighth edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM staging classification for gastric cancer. Methods: Prospective databases were reviewed to identify patients who underwent radical gastrectomy at two specialized eastern centers. The prognostic value of the eighth edition TNM classification was estimated and compared with that of the seventh edition. Additional external validation was performed using a dataset from a Western population. Results: Significant differences in 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were observed for each TNM stage when using the eighth edition system, and smaller Akaike information criteria (AIC) values and a higher c-statistic were observed relative to those of the seventh edition. However, the OS rates in each subgroup of stage III patients based on the eighth edition were significantly different. Patients with the same pN stage, namely, the pT4a and pT4b groups, showed similar 5-year OS (P>0.05). Based on the survival data, we propose a simplified staging system. In the improved TNM (iTNM) staging system, the subgroups of a given TNM stage do not show statistically significant differences in OS. The iTNM staging exhibits superior prognostic stratification, with lower AIC values and a higher c-statistic than the eighth edition TNM classification. Similar results were obtained with the external validation dataset from the IMIGASTRIC database. Conclusion: The prognostic prediction of the eighth edition of the AJCC TNM classification is superior to that of the seventh edition. However, it remains associated with some stage migration. The iTNM staging system permits simplification and slightly better prognostic prediction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was compare short- and long-term outcomes between robotic (RG) and standard open gastrectomy (OG). METHODS This is a single-center propensity score-matched study including patients who underwent RG or OG for gastric cancer between 2008 and 2018. RESULTS In total, 191 patients could be included for analysis. Of 60 RG patients, 49 could be matched. After matching, significant differences in baseline characteristics were no longer present. Operative time was significantly longer (451 min, IQR: 392-513) in the RG group than in the OG (262 min, IQR: 225-330) (P < .0001). No significant differences in postoperative complications between RG (n = 15, 30.6%) and OG (n = 15, 30.6%) were seen (P = 1.000). Overall survival was comparable between the groups. CONCLUSIONS RG is feasible and safe. With regard to long-term oncologic outcomes, survivals in the RG group were similar to those in OG group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Guardix-SG is a poloxamer-based antiadhesive agent. The aim of this study was to investigate its efficacy in preventing abdominal adhesions in gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy. Few clinical studies have reported that antiadhesive agent reduces the incidence of adhesion after gastrectomy. METHODS We conducted a multicenter trial from June 2013 and August 2015 in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma undergoing radical gastrectomy. Patients were randomly assigned to the Guardix treatment or control group. Postoperative adhesions were diagnosed based on postoperative symptoms, plain x-ray films, and computed tomography. The primary endpoint of the study was the incidence of small bowel obstruction in the first postoperative year. The secondary end-point was the safety of Guardix-SG. RESULTS The study included 109 patients in the Guardix group and 105 patients in the control group. The groups were similarly matched with pathological stage, operation type, anastomosis method, midline incision length, and the extent of lymph node dissection. Eight in the Guardix group and 21 in the control group experienced intestinal obstruction during the 1-year follow-up period. The cumulative incidence of small bowel obstruction was significantly lower in the Guardix group compared to that seen in the control group (4.7% vs 8.6% at 6 months and 7.3% vs 20% at 1 year; P = .007, log-rank test). There were no differences in postoperative complications and adverse events. CONCLUSION Guardix-SG significantly decreased the incidence of intestinal obstruction without affecting the incidence of postoperative complications.

Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate analgesic effects and postoperative recovery of ropivacaine wound infiltration for elderly patients in China after total laparoscopic radical gastrectomy.We retrospectively received clinical data of 132 elderly patients who received total laparoscopic gastrectomy and tracheal intubation general anesthesia from cancer center of First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University between September 2014 and September 2017, patients were divided into 2 groups according to local injection of drug: group I (ropivacaine group, 0.5% ropivacaine, 40 mL in total, n = 69), group II (control group, no analgesic, n = 63). The demographics, postoperative pain using numeric ratings scale (NRS), rescue analgesics as well as incidence of complications were investigated.Significantly lower pain scores were observed in group I than in group II at 6, 12, 24, and 48 h postoperatively; the use of remedy analgesia was less in group I than in group II; there was no statistical significance in the incidence of surgical-related complications between the 2 groups. The recovery time were shorter in group I than in group II, meanwhile, postoperative hospital stay, medical expenses, and anesthesia-related complications were significantly less in group I than in group II.This is a review of ropivacaine infiltration use in the elderly patients underwent total laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. This analysis describes the postoperative analgesic effect and postoperative recovery of wound infiltration with ropivacaine. Multicentered large sample prospective randomized controlled study is needed to evaluate the feasibility, security, and economic practicality.

Abstract
Aim Cytological detection of peritoneal-free gastric cancer cells is considered as the gold standard with variable sensitivity. Seeding of cancer cells after radical surgery for gastric cancer is a controversial issue. In this study, it was aimed to detect the rate of positive peritoneal washing cytology and the incidence of spreading of tumor cells after radical surgery. Materials and Methods Patients with pathologically proven and surgically treated gastric adenocarcinoma were enrolled. Three peritoneal washing samples were examined cytologically: at the beginning, after completion of resection, and before closure of the abdomen. Identification of peritoneal-free gastric cancer cells was regarded as the main outcome. Results Thirty-four patients with a mean age of 60.7 ± 12 years were enrolled. T3 and N0 were the most common stages seen in 16 (47%) and 12 patients (35.3%), respectively. There were two positive results (5.9%) as the first peritoneal sample. Considering T3- or N-positive patients, the incidence increased to 9.1%. There was no conversion of negative to positive cytology. Cytological positivity remained only in one case (2.9%) after the second and the third peritoneal samples. Conclusion Rate of positive peritoneal washing cytology in patients with gastric cancer is influenced by clinicopathological findings and the technique used. Use of cytology alone is thought to be failed to detect free cancers cells within the peritoneal cavity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Short-term complications and long-term prognoses of three kinds of digestive tract reconstructions after radical gastrectomy for distal gastric cancer were compared. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for distal gastric cancer were divided into three groups according to the type of digestive tract reconstruction: Billroth I, Billroth II, and Roux-en-Y anastomosis. Clinicopathological characteristics, intraoperative conditions, short-term complications, and long-term prognoses were compared among the three groups. RESULTS There were no significant differences in the clinicopathological characteristics and postoperative complications among the three groups (P > .05). There was no significant difference in the operative times of the Billroth I and Billroth II anastomosis groups, but the operative times in both groups were shorter than the operative time in the Roux-en-Y anastomosis group (P < .05). The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate in the Billroth I, Billroth II, and Roux-en-Y anastomosis groups was 58.3%, 55.0%, and 62.2%, respectively, with no significant difference among the three groups. There was no significant difference in the OS rate according to the tumor node metastasis stage among the three groups (P > .05). CONCLUSION The postoperative complications and prognoses were similar in the different digestive tract reconstruction groups. Billroth I anastomosis is a simple surgical method that can be used for gastrointestinal reconstruction after distal gastrectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dexmedetomidine can inhibit the perioperative stress response, which plays an important role in postoperative hypercoagulability. This study aimed to investigate whether dexmedetomidine could attenuate the activation of postoperative coagulation. METHODS Patients undergoing open radical gastrectomy under total intravenous anesthesia were randomly allocated to the control group (group Con) and the dexmedetomidine group (group Dex). Dexmedetomidine was intravenously infused at 0.5 μg/kg over 10 minutes before anesthesia induction and then infused at a rate of 0.5 μg/kg/h until peritoneal closure in group Dex, whereas saline was administered in group Con. Blood samples were collected for thrombelastograph (TEG) analysis [reaction time (R time), clot formation time (K time), and clot formation rate (α angle)] and laboratory coagulation testing before dexmedetomidine administration and at the end of surgery. RESULTS Coagulation was activated after radical gastrectomy, as indicated by TEG analysis and the increased concentrations of plasma fibrin (fibrinogen) degradation product (FDP) and thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT). The R and K times were significantly prolonged and α angle was significantly decreased in group Dex compared with that in group Con at the end of surgery (P < .05). The concentrations of plasma TAT and FDP in group Dex were significantly lower than those in group Con at the end of surgery (P < .05 or .01). CONCLUSION Adjunctive dexmedetomidine with general anesthesia attenuates the activation of coagulation following radical gastrectomy.

Abstract
To analyze the impact of perigastric lipolymphatic tissue grouping by the surgeon on the number of pathologic sampled lymph nodes and to explore the appropriate lymph node delivery process.The authors collected the medical records of gastric cancer patients who were hospitalized in Wuhan Union Hospital during the period January 2016 to January 2018. The authors selected 126 patients and divided them into experimental group and control group, 63 cases in each group. Samples of standard complete gastrectomy or distal gastrectomy +D2 lymph node dissection was performed. In experimental group, the fresh en bloc specimen was treated by the surgeon before the formalin fixation. The perigastric lipolymphatic tissue was divided into the lymph node grouping according to JSGC guideline III. Then the stomach and each group of lipolymphatic tissue were fixed and then transferred to the pathologic department, then the lymph nodes were harvested by the pathological technician. In control group, the whole en bloc specimen was fixed with formalin and then lymph nodes were detected by palpation and thin slice inspection, and then harvested by the pathological technician. The lymph node acquisition was compared in 2 groups.The total number of lymph nodes in experimental group is 2611, the number of negative lymph nodes is 2273; the total number of lymph nodes in control group is 1643, the number of negative lymph nodes is 1351; the comparison difference in 2 groups was statistical sense (P < .01); patients with lymph node which reach 25 pieces/person of experimental group could reach a ratio of 90.1%, and that is 47.6% in the control group, the comparison difference in 2 groups was statistical sense (P < .01), the number of positive lymph nodes did not increase significantly compared with the control group, and there was no statistical significance in the 2 groups.Dissecting the perigastric lipolymphatic tissue into lymph node groups by the surgeon might improve the total number of lymph node harvested by the pathological technician, and increase the rate of cases with >25 lymph nodes. Our results also implicated that, when the routing harvested lymph nodes were more than 20, the increasing number by perigastric lipolymphatic tissue grouping might result from more negative lymph nodes detected and might not result in stage migrating.

Abstract
Tripartite motif containing 29 (TRIM29) dysregulation serves an important function in the progression of numerous types of cancer, but its function in the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer remains unknown. The present study assessed the prognostic value of TRIM29 in patients with gastric cancer following surgical resection. A total of 243 fresh gastric adenocarcinoma and adjacent normal tissues were continuously retrieved from patients who underwent curative surgery for gastric cancer at the Cancer Hospital of Henan Province (Zhengzhou, China) between January 2005 and December 2011. The reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was performed to assess TRIM29 expression. The association between TRIM29 expression and clinicopathological features and prognosis was subsequently evaluated. The results of the present study revealed that the expression of TRIM29 was increased in the gastric cancer tissues compared with the normal adjacent tissues, and that upregulated expression of TRIM29 was associated with tumor cell differentiation, tumor stage, lymph node metastasis, and tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage. In the training and validation data, high TRIM29 expression was associated with poor overall survival in patients with gastric cancer. Furthermore, multivariate analysis identified that TRIM29 expression was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival, in addition to TNM stage and Lauren classification. Combining TRIM29 expression with the TNM staging system generated a novel predictive model that exhibited improved prognostic accuracy for overall survival in patients with gastric cancer. The present study revealed that TRIM29 was an independent adverse prognostic factor in patients with gastric cancer. Incorporating TRIM29 expression level into the TNM staging system may improve risk stratification and render prognosis more accurate in patients with gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Although several epidemiological studies have indicated that statins may have antitumor properties, the effect of statins on patient survival after curative resection of gastric cancer is unknown. The aim of the present study was to determine whether statin use could improve long-term outcomes after radical gastrectomy. PATIENS AND METHODS: We conducted a matched case-control study of 65 statin users and 176 non-users who underwent radical gastrectomy for stage II and III gastric cancer from January 2006 to December 2009. RESULTS No significant differences were found in recurrence-free survival (RFS) or overall survival (OS) between statin users and non-users. However, subgroup analysis showed that patients who used statins for more than six months had more favorable outcomes than non-users or those who used statins for less than six months [adjusted hazard ratio of death (non-users as reference); statin use <6 months: 2.405, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.056-5.477 and statin use >6 months: 0.168, 95% CI=0.032-0.881, p=0.006]. CONCLUSION Statin use did not improve RFS or OS after curative resection of stage II or III gastric cancer in the overall study population. However, statin use of more than six months was associated with increased survival.

Abstract
Laparoscopic radical gastrectomy has been increasingly applied in China. However, how to reduce surgery-related trauma, shorten operative time and achieve the long-term prognosis equal to the conventional open surgery is still hot research topics. Along with the change in learning curve and the optimization of endoscopic techniques, laparoscopic lymph node dissection can achieve or even exceed the extent that can be achieved in open surgery. Therefore, it has gradually replaced the conventional digestive tract reconstruction using an auxiliary incision. By completing the laparoscopic digestive tract reconstruction with EndoGIA, we describe the laparoscopy-assisted D2 radical distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer (Billroth II anastomosis).
