Gastric Cancer: Pathobiology and Therapeutics.
Review in MedComm, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) remains a formidable global health challenge, characterized by pronounced molecular heterogeneity, late-stage diagnosis, and limited durable responses to existing therapies. This review synthesizes recent advances in GC research through an integrated, multidisciplinary lens, spanning tumor biology, microenvironmental dynamics, and therapeutic innovation. We first consolidate updated histopathological and molecular classification systems, highlighting oncogenic programs that underpin GC development, including Hippo-YAP signaling and emerging neural-stem cell interactions. We then examine the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, emphasizing the dynamic crosstalk among tumor-associated macrophages, regulatory T cells, tertiary lymphoid structures, and cancer-associated fibroblasts that collectively drive metastatic dissemination and therapeutic resistance. Emerging biomarker-guided strategies, including CLDN18.2-targeted therapies, dual immune checkpoint blockade, and engineered cellular therapies, are critically discussed alongside rational combination approaches designed to overcome resistance. Beyond canonical paradigms, we highlight transformative frontiers, such as cancer neuroscience, microbiome-driven immune modulation, and spatially resolved multiomics technologies, that enable high-resolution mapping of cellular interactions. Finally, we critically assess translational barriers, including organ-specific metastatic tropism and resistance evolution, and propose that the convergence of deep molecular profiling, neural-immune modulation, and AI-enabled computational oncology will be central to advancing precision medicine for GC. This integrated framework aims to accelerate the development of mechanism-based combination therapies.
