Retrospective analysis of risk factors for distant metastasis of early-onset gastric cancer during the perioperative period.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Although the overall global incidence of gastric cancer has been declining, the number of new cases in people under the age of 50 is increasing, which is related to metastasis, late pathological stages, and poor prognosis. There is a scarcity of large-scale studies to evaluate and predict distant metastasis in patients with early-onset gastric cancer.

Methods

From January 2010 to December 2019, data on early-onset GC patients undergoing surgery were gathered from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. We investigated the independent risk factors for distant metastasis in patients with early-onset gastric cancer. Based on these risk factors, we developed a nomogram to predict distant metastasis. The model underwent internal validation on t
