Excerpt

Diseases of the esophagus and stomach, both benign and malignant, produce a wide range of symptoms, affecting how patients experience life and how well they function in their environments. In the past times, patient survival, side effects, and mortality were the main measures of success when weighing the effectiveness of a treatment.

After all, if the patient’s quality of life has not improved or, in some scenarios, significantly decreased, then the physician must re-evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment? …
