Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the major histological subtype of EC, and its incidence and mortality rates are decreasing globally. Due to the lack of specific early symptoms, ESCC patients are usually diagnosed with advanced-stage disease with a poor prognosis, and the incidence and mortality rates are still high in many countries, especially in China. Therefore, enormous challenges still exist in the management of ESCC, and novel strategies are urgently needed to further decrease the incidence and mortality rates of ESCC. Although the key molecular mechanisms underlying ESCC pathogenesis have not been fully elucidated, certain promising biomarkers are being investigated to facilitate clinical decision-making. With the advent and advancement of highthroughput technologies, such as genomics, proteomics and metabolomics, valuable biomarkers with high sensitivity, specificity and stability could be identified for ESCC. Herein, we aimed to determine the epidemiological features of ESCC in different regions of the world, especially in China, and focused on novel molecular biomarkers associated with ESCC screening, early diagnosis and prognosis prediction.  \nKey Words: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma; Epidemiology; Diagnosis; Genomics; Proteomics; Metabolomics  \n WJG  [https://www.wjgnet.com](https://www.wjgnet.com) 2638 May 28, 2024  Volume 30  Issue 20   \nZhao YX et al.

Various molecular mechanisms have been suggested, and a better understanding of the epidemiology and characteristic biomarkers may facilitate ESCC screening, early diagnosis and prognosis prediction. This review aimed to discuss the epidemiological features, screening, early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of ESCC, with a focus on promising molecular biomarkers, to provide a guide for the development of novel strategies f","cbCailfCDGoiafCd","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailfCDGoiafCd","pdf",4112765,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Epidemiology and global cancer burden\n## Screening and diagnostic challenges\n## Survival differences by stage\n## Need for molecular biomarkers","[{\"question\":\"Why is early diagnosis of ESCC difficult?\",\"answer\":\"ESCC lacks specific early symptoms, so patients are often diagnosed in advanced stages, resulting in poor prognosis.\"},{\"question\":\"What was the global cancer burden of esophageal cancer in 2020 according to the review?\",\"answer\":\"In 2020, esophageal cancer was reported as the eighth most prevalent malignancy and the sixth leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide in the cited database.\"},{\"question\":\"How do emerging high-throughput technologies support ESCC biomarker discovery?\",\"answer\":\"Advances in genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics are used to identify biomarkers with high sensitivity, specificity, and stability to support clinical decision-making.\"}]","Latest insights into the global epidemiological features, screening, early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma | PDF",1789996902]
