  1. Germline CDH1 variants discovered in a recent report [Ref. #32] are listed. Mixed type GCs in the Lauren classification were categorized as DGC
  2. DGC diffuse-type GC, IGC intestinal-type GC, EAS east Asian, EUR Europian populations
  3. Lauren’s classification (if DGC), family history (if Yes), and GC case numbers among east Asians are highlighted as bold.
  4. aReported in GC cases that met clinical criteria of HDGC such as strong femilial aggregation and/or extremely early onsets [Ref. #83, 86, 89, 90, 92]
