It is not clear whether laparoscopic (LDG) and open distal gastrectomy (ODG) produce similar long-term outcomes in advanced #gastriccancer. CLASS-01 trial firstly shows LDG results in similar 5-year OS compared to ODG in advanced gastric cancer https://t.co/uUBcLFeqsY

Ranitidine absolved? FDA study finds Ranitidine does not convert to carcinogen NDMA, regardless of diet.

Commentary: Ranitidine: FDA finds no evidence of elevated NDMA, regardless of diet
Commentaries on Twitter
Despite ranitidine (zantac) being pulled from market last year, a new study from the FDA did not find evidence that it increases concentrations of the carcinogenic metabolite people were worried about (i.e., it's probably safe). From @JAMA_current https://t.co/AdRic2GdXS

In this crossover, randomized clinical trial, oral ranitidine did not significantly increase 24-hour urinary excretion of NDMA when administered with a noncured-meats diet or a cured-meats diet. https://t.co/EszRvfJOFJ
