Background: Gastrointestinal lymphoma typically arises in the stomach, small bowel, or colorectum and is usually a B-cell lymphoma. However, primary T-cell lymphomas originating in the stomach are particularly rare. Gastric peripheral T-cell lymphoma-not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) is an extremely rare subtype.
Case Summary: We report a 63-year-old male presenting with epigastric pain. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a large ulcerative lesion in the gastric cardia. Biopsy and immunohistochemical profiling confirmed PTCL-NOS. Imaging indicated stage II disease involving the stomach and intra-abdominal lymph nodes. The patient is planned to undergo cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone or cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone, and etoposide chemotherapy.
Conclusion: This case highlights the necessity of considering PTCL-NOS in differential diagnoses of gastric lesions. Comprehensive histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis is crucial for accurate diagnosis and guiding treatment.

Peroneal neuropathy is a recognized cause for foot drop, typically following trauma, nerve damage, immobilization, or prolonged external pressure. Recently, rapid weight loss after bariatric surgery has been recognised as a potential cause for peroneal neuropathy. This may be due to the loss of protective fat tissue near the peroneal nerve, increasing its susceptibility to compression.

Purpose: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common dose-limiting toxicity associated with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in gastric cancer patients. Recent studies suggest that high-dose intravenous selenium may exert neuroprotective effects in patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy.
Methods: This pilot study analyzed patients with stage III gastric adenocarcinoma who underwent gastrectomy between January and December 2024.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) play a pivotal role in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, the biomarkers used to predict ICI efficacy are limited due to their reliance on single or static tumor characteristics. This study aims to develop a machine learning (ML) model that incorporates dynamic changes in clinlabomics data to optimize the predictive accuracy of ICI efficacy.

Background: The prognostic discriminative ability of the pathological tumor-node-metastasis (pTNM) staging system for gastric cancer (GC) still requires further improvement. This study aimed to develop a pTNM-Inflammation (pTNM-I) staging system by integrating pTNM staging with peripheral inflammatory status to enhance the prognostic stratification capability of pTNM.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed 4,049 patients who underwent curative surgery for GC.

One of the most concerning ruminant infections is the parasite . Known commonly as the brown stomach worm, it is ingested by grazing cattle where it then progresses its life stages, occupying the host abomasum and then the intestine, causing illness. This results in lower commercial production and at worst, death of young calves.
