Significance of lymphatic invasion and cancer invasion-related proteins on lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We previously developed a new diagnostic method for Helicobacter pylori infection and called it the endoscopic [13C]-urea breath test (EUBT). Here we evaluate the relationship between the EUBT results and the histological findings. METHODS:The EUBT was performed on 137 patients with gastroduodenal diseases....
