[Chinese Guideline on Risk Management of Gastric Cancer in the General Public(2023 Edition)].

The disease burden of gastric cancer is considerable heavy in China, where the annual number of new gastric cancer cases and deaths rank first in the world. It has been shown that risk assessment, screening, and reducing risk factors may effectively reduce gastric cancer development in general population. However, there is currently a lack of practice guidelines on risk management of gastric cancer for the general public in China. This guideline was conducted by the Chinese Gastric Cancer Association (CGCA) and Chinese Society of Upper Gastrointestinal Surgeons (CSUGS). Based on the best research evidence and health expertise, we developed 17 questions and formulated 18 recommendations. These recommendations provide comprehensive guidance for the management of gastric cancer risk in the general public, with the potential to reduce the cancer development and the burden of disease.中国的胃癌负担沉重，新发病例及死亡人数居世界首位。通过风险评估、筛查、减少危险因素，可有效预防胃癌，但中国目前尚缺乏循证指南来指导普通大众进行胃癌风险管理。本指南由中国抗癌协会胃癌专业委员会及中国医师协会外科医师分会上消化道外科医师委员会联合发起，通过系统梳理胃癌风险评估及预防相关证据，结合专家意见，针对17个指南问题形成了推荐意见。本指南将为普通大众提供全面的胃癌预防指导建议，以期推动胃癌防治关口前移，降低发病、减少疾病负担。.
