BACKGROUND: Gastric stromal tumors (GSTs) and gastric leiomyomas (GLs) represent the primary subtypes of gastric submucosal tumors (SMTs) characterized by distinct biological characteristics and treatment modalities. The accurate differentiation betw...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Despite remarkable progress in the management of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), critical challenges persist. Key aspects such as risk stratification, the optimal duration of adjuvant therapy, and strategies to enhance the...
Over 90% of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) harbor mutations in KIT or PDGFRA that can predict response to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapies, as recommended by NCCN (National Comprehensive Cancer Network) guidelines. However, gene seq...
To develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model which combined computed tomography (CT) semantic and radiomics features to preoperatively predict Ki-67 expression in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) patients. We retrospectively collected...

BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) have malignant potential, and treatment varies according to risk. However, no specific protocols exist for preoperative assessment of the malignant potential of gastric GISTs (gGISTs). This study ai...
BACKGROUND: Nonadherence to imatinib is common in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), which is associated with poor prognosis and financial burden. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the adherence rate in patients with ...
BACKGROUND: Current guidelines recommend use of adjuvant imatinib therapy for many patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs); however, its optimal treatment duration is unknown and some patient groups do not benefit from the therapy. We ...

OBJECTIVES: Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied to clinical diagnosis. Although AI has already been developed for gastrointestinal (GI) tract endoscopy, few studies have applied AI to endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) images. In this st...
BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and leiomyomas are the most common submucosal tumors of the upper digestive tract, and the diagnosis of the tumors is essential for their treatment and prognosis. However, the ability of endoscopic ...
BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are clinically heterogeneous with various malignant potential in different individuals. It is crucial to explore a reliable method for preoperative risk stratification of gastric GISTs noninvasively...
