Open AccessComparison of the prognostic impact of IPI and PIT in peripheral T-cell lymphoma in real-world practice with a large elderly population
We compared the predictive ability of the International Prognostic Index (IPI), a frequently used prognostic model for peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), with that of a type-specific prognostic model, the Prog...

Open AccessSystemic inflammation score as a preoperative prognostic factor for patients with pT2–T4 resectable gastric cancer: a retrospective study
Systemic inflammation has been reported to be associated with cancer progression and metastasis. Systemic inflammation score (SIS), calculated from preoperative serum albumin level and lymphocyte-to-monocyte r...

Role of the cGAS-STING pathway in regulating the tumor-immune microenvironment in dMMR/MSI colorectal cancer
Deficient mismatch repair (dMMR)/microsatellite instability (MSI) colorectal cancer (CRC) has high immunogenicity and better prognosis compared with proficient MMR (pMMR)/microsatellite stable (MSS) CRC. Altho...

SH2D4A downregulation due to loss of chromosome 8p is associated with poor prognosis and low T cell infiltration in colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) develops through chromosomal instability (CIN) or microsatellite instability (MSI) due to deficient mismatch-repair (dMMR). We aimed to characterise novel cancer-associated genes that a...

Open AccessIncidence of upper extremity deep vein thrombosis in the retrosternal reconstruction after esophagectomy
Upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT) is relatively rare but cannot be negligible because it can cause fatal complications. Although it is reported that the occurrence rate of UEDVT has increased due to...

Open AccessThe effects of T-DXd on the expression of HLA class I and chemokines CXCL9/10/11 in HER2-overexpressing gastric cancer cells
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), a HER2-targeting antibody–drug conjugate with a topoisomerase I inhibitor deruxtecan (DXd), exhibits an excellent anti-tumor effect in previously treated HER2-positive tumors. A...

Circulating tumor cells after neoadjuvant chemotherapy are related with recurrence in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are known to be a systemic process of malignant progression of cancer cells and there is a possibility that analysis for CTCs as a liquid biopsy become predictive or prognostic t...

Prognostic impact of skeletal muscle assessed by computed tomography in patients with acute myeloid leukemia
Skeletal muscle atrophy and loss of adipose tissue, referred to as sarcopenia and adipopenia, respectively, are often observed in cancer patients. We investigated the impact of sarcopenia and adipopenia on cli...

Sarcopenia is an independent prognostic factor in male patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Sarcopenia reportedly predicts poor outcomes in elderly patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, because previous studies only involved elderly patients, it is difficult to generalize thes...

Cerebriform variant type of T cell prolymphocytic leukemia with complex karyotype including an additional segment at 1p36.1
We describe two patients with T cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL) who exhibited the same complex karyotype, including an additional segment at 1p36.1. One presented with secondary progression following an i...
