| Core Tip |
This retrospective cohort study evaluated spatial distribution patterns of immune cells in the tumor microenvironment after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer using multiplex immunohistochemistry. High CD8+ T-cell density at the invasive margin, a CD8+/forkhead box protein 3+ ratio > 2.5, and low programmed death ligand 1+ tumor cell proportion were independent predictors of favorable survival. An immune prognostic score integrating these features achieved high accuracy in predicting 5-year overall survival. These findings highlight the prognostic value of immune cell spatial profiling and may guide individualized postoperative immunotherapy strategies. |
