Co-first authors: Mian Wang and Li-Li Zhang.
Co-corresponding authors: Gang Wang and Yong-Chang Miao.
Author contributions: Zhang LL, Qiu L, Wang M, and Zhang T conceived, designed, and refined the study protocol; Zhang LL, Wang M, and Xu DL acquired and analyzed the data; Qiu T and Zhang T wrote the manuscript; Fang GD, Yu P, and Lu F contributed to the data analyses; Wang G provided clinical advice; Wang G and Miao YC supervised the report and provided the funding acquisition; and all authors have read and approved the final version. Zhang LL and Wang M contributed equally to this work as co-first authors; Wang G and Miao YC contributed equally to this work as co-corresponding authors. There are two reasons for this designation. First, the research was performed as a collaborative effort, and the designation of co-corresponding authorship accurately reflects the distribution of responsibilities and burdens associated with the time and effort required to complete the study and the resultant paper. This also ensures effective communication and management of post-submission matters, ultimately enhancing the paper’s quality and reliability. Second, Zhang LL and Wang M contributed efforts of equal substance throughout the research process. The choice of these researchers as co-first authors acknowledges and respects this equal contribution while recognizing the spirit of teamwork and collaboration in this study. In summary, we believe that designating Zhang LL and Wang M as co-first authors/Wang G and Miao YC as co-corresponding authors is appropriate for our manuscript, as it accurately reflects our team’s collaborative spirit, equal contributions, and diversity.

Core Tip

Core Tip: Commonly used reconstruction methods for proximal gastrectomy in clinical practice include tubular gastroesophageal anastomosis, double-channel anastomosis, and other digestive tract reconstruction methods. However, there are few studies on the clinical efficacy comparison between proximal gastrectomy with double-channel anastomosis and tubular gastroesophageal anastomosis for early proximal gastric cancer in China. In this study, both tubular gastroesophageal anastomosis and double-channel anastomosis have reliable surgical safety. Compared with tubular gastroesophageal anastomosis, dual-channel anastomosis has a better anti-reflux effect and is more conducive to improving patients’ postoperative nutritional status.
