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: 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.
While the cancer genome is well-studied, the nongenetic exposome of cancer remains elusive, particularly for regionally prevalent cancers with poor prognosis. Here, by employing a combined knowledge- and data-driven strategy, we profile the chemical ...
BACKGROUND: Mitotic catastrophe (MC) is a well-recognized endogenous mechanism of tumor cell death, characterized as a delayed cell death process associated with aberrant mitosis. However, its prognostic significance in the context of intratumoral he...
Cellular heterogeneity of epithelial cells and fibroblasts is critical in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma development (ESCC). Identifying dysregulated subtype-specific genes in these cells is essential for early diagnosis and treatment. In this st...
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and high-grade dysplasia (HGD) are two different pathological entities; however, they sometimes share similarities in histological structure depending on the context. Thus, distinguishing between the two may require care...

Esophageal cancer ranks among the most lethal malignancies globally, with China accounting for more than half of worldwide esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cases. Late-stage diagnosis frequently precludes surgical intervention, contributing ...
PURPOSE: This study is aimed to develop and validate a machine learning model, which combined radiomics and clinical characteristics to predicting the definitive chemoradiotherapy (dCRT) treatment response in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC)...

BACKGROUND: Detecting pathological complete response (pCR) preoperatively facilitated a non-surgical approach after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). We previously developed a deep neural network-based endoscopic evaluation to determine pCR preoperativ...
