background: gastric cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death. the aim of this study was to determine the survival rate affected by risk factors in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. methods: we performed this retrospective cohort study on patients diagnosed with gastric adenocarcinoma during 2005-2012 in hamadan, iran. all patients with pathological diagnosis enrolled in the study....

in the recent years deregulation for micrornas expression pattern have emerged as a possible molecular factor for carcinogenesis. it has been reported that the expression of mir-9 was down-regulated in human gastric adenocarcinoma. to figure out the molecular mechanism of this down regulation, the methylation status in promoters of mir-9 family loci were compared in the human gastric adenocarci...

cancer stem cells (cscs) are unique subpopulations that have the capacity to drive malignant progression with renewal abilities. recently the role of some of cscs in gastric adenocarcinoma has been studied. this study was performed in order to evaluate cd44 and cd133 expressions by immunohistochemistry in 95 primary gastric adenocarcinoma and their relation to clinical and pathological paramete...

Incidence rates for adenocarcinomas of the esophagus and gastric cardia have been increasing rapidly, while rates for non-cardia gastric adenocarcinoma and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma have declined. We examined food group intake as a risk factor for subtypes of esophageal and gastric cancers in a multicenter, population-based case-control study in Connecticut, New Jersey and western Wash...

Most cervical adenocarcinomas currently are HPV related. With increasing use of vaccine, the prevalence related carcinomas may reduce & there might be relative increase in occurrence non carcinomas. Gastric variant adenocarcinoma is one such HPV-independent carcinoma and recognized as distinct entity by WHO 2014. A spectrum benign, premalignant malignant endocervical lesions showing gastric...

background: calprotectin is cytotoxic agent that its anti-tumor effects are governed through suppression of topoisomerase ii a key enzyme in apoptosis. in previous studies, cytotoxicity and apoptotic effects of calprotectin are shown on different cancer cell lines, but not human gastric cancer cell lines. in the present study, cytotoxicity and apoptotic effects of calprotectin on human gastric ...

AIM To determine whether there is an increased risk of gastric adenocarcinoma associated with vitamin D deficiency (VDd). METHODS A retrospective case control study was performed of all patients diagnosed with gastric adenocarcinoma between 2005 and 2015. After we excluded the patients without a documented vitamin D level, 49 patients were included in our study. RESULTS The average age of p...

The multiracial population in Malaysia has lived together for almost a century, however, the risk of gastric cancer among them varies. This study aimed to determine the distribution of different gastric adenocarcinoma subtypes and Helicobacter pylori infection status among gastric adenocarcinoma patients. Patients with gastric adenocarcinoma were enrolled from November 2013 to June 2015. Blood ...
