Prognostic Analysis of Gastric Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma and Hepatoid Adenocarcinoma of the Stomach: A Propensity Score-Matched Study

Abstract: BackgroundHepatoid adenocarcinoma of the stomach (HAS) is a rare type of primary gastric cancer, and most previous studies have reported that HAS has a poor prognosis due to its aggressive biological behavior. The aim of this study was to compare the prognosis of HAS to that of gastric signet ring cell carcinoma (SRC).MethodsThis was a single-center, retrospective, observational cohort study (January 2010 to January 2016) of gastric cancer patients with pathological HAS and SRC. Overall survival was compared b… Show more

“…This is particularly advantageous when the comparator groups are initially very different from each other and can achieve good balance and minimize the variances as shown in previous studies 15,16 . Several studies adopted this method to analyze the effect of sex, cancer type, monitoring or treatment on the outcome between groups with significant differences in baseline characteristics [16][17][18][19][20] . By employing this method, we could analyze the hazard ratio for the outcomes between two groups of CKD causes after adjusting for potential confounders.…”

“…Subsequent investigations established that HAS may also manifest without elevated AFP levels ( 6 ), suggesting that elevated serum AFP serves as a hallmark of HAS but lacks absolute specificity. HAS is distinguished by its aggressive behavior and dismal prognosis in comparison to GA and HCC ( 3 , 7 9 ), with median survival ranging from 10 months to 18 months ( 10 , 11 ). Diagnosis often occurs at advanced stages, given the non-specific nature of clinical symptoms and imaging features.…”
