TP73-AS1 level was higher in peripheral blood of NKTCL patients. Through inducing methylation of DKK1 promoter, TP73-AS1 aggravates the malignant progression of NKTCL.

To evaluate early outcome and long term survival in a mixed stage population of patients undergoing upfront esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. Retrospective analysis of the data of 92 patients who underwent esophagectomy (thoracoabdominal 76, Ivor-lewis 16) between 1998 and 2017. Tumors were located in gastro-esophageal junction (52), lower third (31) and middle third (9) of the esophagus. Histology was 73 adenocarcinomas and 19 squamous cell carcinomas. The stomach was used for reconstruction in 90 patients. A neck anastomosis was performed in 7 patients. End points of the study included mortality, morbidity and long term survival. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to identify prognostic factors for survival. The mortality was 10.9% and 29 patients presented 49 complications. Anastomotic dehiscence occurred in 17.4% of the patients and represented the most common cause of death with mortality of 37.5%. Reoperation was necessary in 14 patients. Median survival reached 25 months with 3 and 5 year survival of 30.5% and 21% respectively. Early stage tumors, absence of nodal disease, well differentiated carcinomas and lymph node ratio ≤ 0.2 were associated with 5 year survival of 82.6%, 81.6%, 83.3% and 40.4% respectively. In multivariate analysis early stage disease (OR 15.746, 95%CI 4.332-58.579, p < 0.001) and lymph node ratio (OR 1.700 95%CI 1.051-2.752, p = 0.031) were statistically associated with long term survival.
