Abstract excerpt

Early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma detected by esophageal iodine staining can be easily treated by endoscopic mucosectomy, and identifying its predictors is important in better selecting candidates to screen for this high-mortality cancer. The common etiologies of elevated mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and esophageal cancer, including folate deficiency, smoking, drinking and high acetaldehyde exposure,...
