Abstract in brief

  • Gastric cancer is a major global health issue, ranking as the 5th most common and 3rd deadliest cancer, especially affecting older men, with over 783,000 deaths in 2018.
  • Its incidence and mortality rates vary widely by region and are influenced by factors such as diet and infections; efforts to prevent infection have reduced overall gastric cancer cases but led to a rise in a rare subtype called cardia gastric cancer.
  • Preventive strategies like dietary changes, quitting smoking, exercise, and genetic testing are key to reducing risk and improving early diagnosis and survival outcomes.

@ahmedpms @bb247link @abierkhatib He had stage 5 stomach cancer. Gastric cancer is the 3rd deadliest cancer among males worldwide (8.3% of all cancer deaths). It is extremely dangerous due to a lack of symptoms in the early stages. https://t.co/tqzdXPR9Kz It used to be the leading cause of death in the USA.
