Factors associated with hypertension remission after gastrectomy for gastric cancer patients

Table 3 Previous studies reporting the remission of hypertension after gastrectomy for gastric cancer patients

Ref.	Year	Country	Sample size	Remission rate	Summary
Peng et al[15]	2020	China	143	55.3%	Age and the surgical techniques used can predict the remission of hypertension 6 mo after gastrectomy. However, the follow-up time was only 6 mo
Kim et al[16]	2019	South Korea	66	57.6%	In early gastric cancer survivors with hypertension, gastrectomy resulted in better blood pressure control, which may be due to the gastrectomy itself, beyond weight loss
Lee et al[17]	2015	South Korea	351	11.1%	The results came from a nationwide cohort study with limited baseline information, no further information could be found in terms of risk factors for hypertension remission
Park et al[18]	2020	South Korea	33	42.4%	The study focused on the comparison between the long-limb R-Y reconstruction between conventional R-Y reconstruction, the information for hypertension remission was limited
Wang et al[19]	2020	China	16	93.8%	Elaborate parameters of endocrine hormone change, however, the sample size was too small
