Esophageal cancer: Epidemiology, risk factors and screening
2021年5月1日 · About half of the world’s EC was diagnosed in China and a majority of which belong to ESCC. Globally, the overall incidence rate of EC is decreasing. In some high-risk Asian regions, such as China, the incidence rate of ESCC has generally declined, potentially due to economic growth and improvement of diet habits.
Esophageal cancer in China: Practice and research in the new era
2022年9月24日 · A radiation dose up to 60 Gy has been practiced in China because of the heterogeneity of Asian ethnicity, upper and middle tumor location, histology of ESCC, and the use of modern technology, including intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT).

Overview of Risk Factors for Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma in China
2023年11月27日 · (1) Background: China has the highest esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) incidence areas in the world, with some areas of incidence over 100 per 100,000. Despite extensive public health efforts, its etiology is still poorly understood. This study aims to review and summarize past research into potential etiologic factors for ESCC in China.
CCGD-ESCC - Gao Lab
Chinese Cancer Genomic Database-Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (CCGD-ESCC) is a comprehensive database for searching the associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with the risk of ESCC (genome-wide association studies, GWASs), patients’ survival (Survival GWAS) or gene expression (expression quantitative trait loci, eQTLs).
