About
Dr. Jiachi Ma is a clinical researcher whose work bridges surgical oncology and mental health, with a primary focus on the psychological outcomes of patients undergoing advanced surgical procedures. His most cited study, "The quantification and clinical analysis of depression and anxiety in patients undergoing Da Vinci robot-assisted radical gastrectomy and open radical gastrectomy" (2020, 5 citations), represents a pioneering effort to systematically compare the emotional toll of robotic-assisted versus traditional open surgery for gastric cancer. In this partially randomized patient preference trial involving 98 patients, Dr. Ma demonstrated that surgical modality significantly influences postoperative depression and anxiety levels, identifying independent risk factors that can guide personalized preoperative counseling. This work highlights his broader contribution to understanding how minimally invasive techniques impact not just physical recovery but also psychological well-being. By quantifying mental health outcomes in surgical populations, Dr. Ma has helped shift the conversation toward holistic patient care, emphasizing that the success of a procedure must be measured by both clinical and emotional metrics. His research offers valuable insights for surgeons and oncologists seeking to optimize patient quality of life alongside survival outcomes.
