Objective:

To evaluate the clinical efficacy of enteral immunonutrition (EIN) compared to standard enteral nutrition (EN) in patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery.

Approach:
    Key Findings:
    • Addspecificstatisticalmeasuresforclarity.
    Interpretation:

    Perioperative enteral immunonutrition, particularly when administered for 7–10 days, is associated with reduced postoperative complications, improved humoral immunity, and shorter hospital stay in patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery.

    Limitations:
    • Specifywhichsecondaryoutcomeshadlowcertainty.
    Conclusion:

    EIN may be considered as a component of perioperative nutritional support, particularly in patients with established nutritional risk, while routine use should be guided by individualized assessment and confirmed by larger high-quality multicenter trials.
