Prognostic prediction and treatment options for gastric signet ring cell carcinoma: a SEER database analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In recent years, the overall incidence of gastric cancer has decreased. However, the incidence of gastric signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) is still increasing year by year. Compared with other subtypes (non-SRCC) such as adenocarcinoma, SRCC usually exhibits a more aggressive biological behavior. Therefore, studying the prognostic differences and factors associated with SRCC is essential to improve the accuracy of diagnosis and prognosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognostic factors influencing the prognosis of patients with SRCC and to develop personalized treatments for different subgroups of patients.

Methods

The data on gastric SRCC patients and gastric adenocarcinoma (AC) patients from 1992 to 2020 was obtained from the Surveillance, E
