Oesophageal cancer: ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines for diagnosis, treatment and follow-up
TLDR
In the EU, the highest age-standardised incidence rates for oesophageal cancer are in the Netherlands for men and the UK for women, and variation between countries is high and may reflect different prevalence of risk factors, use of screening and diagnostic methods.About:

Time to diagnosis in esophageal cancer: a cohort study
Francesco Cavallin,Marco Scarpa,Matteo Cagol,Rita Alfieri,Alberto Ruol,Vanna Chiarion Sileni,Massimo Rugge,Ermanno Ancona,Carlo Castoro +8 more
TL;DR: Longer time to diagnosis did not affect resectability, postoperative morbidity or survival, and further campaigns to raise awareness of cancer among population and primary health care providers may have limited effect on clinical outcome.

Prognostic Value of Lymph Node-To-Primary Tumor Standardized Uptake Value Ratio in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Treated with Definitive Chemoradiotherapy.
Chia-Hsin Lin,Tsung-Min Hung,Yu-Chuan Chang,Chia-Hsun Hsieh,Ming-Chieh Shih,Shih-Ming Huang,Chan-Keng Yang,Ching-Fu Chang,Sheng-Chieh Chan,Wing-Keen Yap +9 more
TL;DR: Pretreatment of SUVLN/SUVTumor is a simple and useful marker for prognosticating DMFS and OS in cN+ ESCC patients treated with dCRT, which may help in tailoring treatment and designing future clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meta-analysis of survival benefit with postoperative chemoradiotherapy in patients of lymph node positive esophageal carcinoma
TL;DR: This meta-analysis demonstrated a survival benefit of postoperative CRT over SA in resectable EC patients with positive lymph nodes, which indicates lower local recurrence rates of post-CRT than that of SA.

Trends in treatment and overall survival among patients with proximal esophageal cancer
Judith de Vos-Geelen,Sandra M. E. Geurts,Margreet van Putten,Liselot B.J. Valkenburg-van Iersel,Heike I. Grabsch,Nadia Haj Mohammad,Frank J. P. Hoebers,Chantal V. Hoge,Paul M. Jeene,Evelien J.

TL;DR: OS significantly improved in non-metastatic proximal esophageal cancer, likely to be associated with an increased use of CRT.
Journal ArticleDOI
A prediction model for degree of differentiation for resectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma based on CT images using radiomics and machine-learning.
TL;DR: The proposed predictive model showed high accuracy for the classification of the degree of the differentiation of esophageal cancer patients from the planning CT image by radiomics analysis with machine learning.

TL;DR: In patients with operable gastric or lower esophageal adenocarcinomas, a perioperative regimen of ECF decreased tumor size and stage and significantly improved progression-free and overall survival.

TL;DR: Preoperative chemoradiotherapy improved survival among patients with potentially curable esophageal or esophagogastric-junction cancer and the regimen was associated with acceptable adverse-event rates.
