Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) has seen a dramatic rise in incidence in developed countries over the past three decades. Early detection of its precursors-gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Barrett's esophagus (BE), and high-grade dysplasia (HG...
BACKGROUND: Currently, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has become the preferred treatment for superficial oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SESCC). However, due to the residual background mucosa, some patients are still at risk of postopera...
BACKGROUND: Accurate preoperative prediction of pathological complete response (pCR) following neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (nCIT) could help individualize treatment for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). This study aimed to d...
BACKGROUND: Cell-free DNA is a promising source of biomarkers for early cancer detection and carries tumor-driven methylation and fragmentation features that have achieved good diagnostic efficacy across various cancers. However, there were no studie...
Esophageal carcinoma poses a significant health challenge, particularly due to its notably high prevalence in East Asia, which underscores the urgent need for innovative treatment strategies. Natural flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds with signifi...

BACKGROUND: Making precise treatment decisions in esophageal cancer is essential for enhancing patient outcomes and avoiding overtreatment. Traditional approaches relying on special features or shallow learning models often fail to capture the comple...
BACKGROUND: While numerous models have been developed to predict overall survival in postoperative patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), few have specifically focused on predicting postoperative recurrence.

STUDY AIM: Early detection of distant metastases is crucial, but current imaging detects them only when radiographically visible. This study reported subvisual chest CT signals could serve as early biomarkers for impending lung metastasis before radi...
BACKGROUND: Accurate staging of esophageal cancer is crucial for determining prognosis and guiding treatment strategies, but manual interpretation of radiology reports by clinicians is prone to variability and limited accuracy, resulting in reduced s...
The aim of this systematic review was to summarize and analyze the available literature on the application of artificial intelligence systems in esophageal surgery, focusing on anatomy recognition, instrument detection, and surgical phase recognition...
