The present study offers an original survey on GC in a defined Italian population. As far as the intestinal histotype is concerned, the slight age difference between EGC and AGC suggests that these tumors are different steps of the same process. On the contrary, the age distribution suggests that EGC, diffuse type, has a different biological behaviour.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
