Introduction
Length of stay (LOS) is increasingly being viewed as a quality metric, and efforts to reduce LOS are present across most surgical subspecialties. However, data on whether reducing LOS is safe in patients who undergo radical nephrectomy (RN) are lacking. The purpose of this study was to assess whether early discharge after RN affects readmission rates and postdischarge complications using a national cohort of patients.Patients and Methods
The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was used to identify patients who underwent RN from 2012 to 2015. Procedures were stratified as minimally invasive or open. Early discharge was defined as less than or equal to the procedure-specific 25th percentile for LOS. Multivariable analysis was used to identify factors associated with readmission and postdischarge complications. A sensitivity analysis excluded patients with a LOS >75th percentile.Results
A total of 11,429 patients were included. The 25th percentile for LOS was 2 days in the minimally invasive group and 3 days in the open group. In multivariable analysis, early discharge did not increase the risk of postdischarge complications (odds ratio, 0.88; 95% confidence interval, 0.71-1.08; P = .214) and decreased the risk of readmission (odds ratio, 0.72; 95% confidence interval, 0.59-0.87; P = .001).Conclusion
Early discharge after RN does not increase the risk of postdischarge complications or readmission. With the appropriate patient selection, decreasing LOS might lead to decreased surgical costs and improved patient flow. This work provides a foundation for future research that might optimize perioperative care pathways to decrease LOS. 相似文献2.

Background
Renal-cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the common malignancies in the United States. RCC incidence and mortality have been changing for many reasons. We performed a thorough investigation of incidence and mortality trends of RCC in the United States using the cell Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.Patients and Methods
The 13 SEER registries were accessed for RCC cases diagnosed between 1992 and 2015. Incidence and mortality were calculated by demographic and tumor characteristics. We calculated annual percentage changes of these rates. Rates were expressed as 100,000 person-years.Results
A total of 104,584 RCC cases were reviewed, with 47,561 deaths. The overall incidence was 11.281 per 100,000 person-years. Incidence increased by 2.421% per year (95% confidence interval, 2.096, 2.747; P < .001) but later became stable since 2008. However, the incidence of clear-cell subtype continued to increase (1.449%; 95% confidence interval, 0.216, 2.697; P = .024). RCC overall mortality rates have been declining since 2001. However, mortality associated with distant RCC only started to decrease in 2012, with an annual percentage change of 18.270% (95% confidence interval, ?28.775, ?6.215; P = .006).Conclusion
Despite an overall increase in the incidence of RCC, there has been a recent plateau in RCC incidence rates with a significant decrease in mortality. 相似文献3.

Purpose
To assess the prognostic value of PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway up-regulation in a contemporary cohort of penile squamous-cell carcinoma (PSCC) patients.Patients and Methods
Tissue microarrays were constructed for 57 patients with invasive PSCC treated at our institution between 2000 and 2013. Immunohistochemical staining was performed for PTEN, AKT, and S6. Human papillomavirus (HPV) in-situ hybridization for high-risk subtypes was also performed. Biomarker expression was evaluated by a semiquantitative H score. Overall survival, disease-specific survival and recurrence-free survival stratified by biomarker expression (low vs. high) were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariable Cox regression models were used to determine predictors of mortality and recurrence.Results
HPV in-situ hybridization was positive in 23 patients (40%). PTEN was down-regulated in 43 patients (75%), while phosphorylated-AKT (p-AKT) and phosphorylated-S6 (p-S6) were up-regulated in 27 (47%) and 12 patients (21%), respectively. In multivariable Cox regression models, patients with low expression of p-AKT had an increased risk of recurrence (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.95; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.47-10.59; P = .02), while those with low expression of p-S6 had an increased risk of overall mortality (HR = 6.15; 95% CI, 1.55-24.36; P = .01). HPV status was an independent predictor of overall survival (HR = 6.99; 95% CI, 2.42-20.16; P < .001) and disease-specific survival (HR = 6.74; 95% CI, 2.02-22.48; P = .002).Conclusion
PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway up-regulation and HPV coinfection in PSCC are associated with favorable disease. mTOR pathway biomarkers along with HPV status may represent novel prognosticators for risk stratification of PSCC patients and may help guide treatment decisions and follow-up strategies. These findings require further investigation. 相似文献4.

Background
The role of histology subtype on the prognosis of T1-2 breast cancer patients receiving breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is not clear.Methods
The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program was used to compare overall survival, second primary cancer-free survival (CFS), and local recurrence risk (LR) for patients with invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), both receiving BCS.Results
The study enrolled 196,688 patients with T1-2 disease receiving BCS, including 12,906 with ILC and 183,782 with IDC. Patients with IDC showed higher unadjusted annual rates of BCS than ILC. Five- and 10-year estimated survival rates were, respectively, 92.06% and 86.14% in ILC, compared to 90.50% and 85.26% in IDC (P = .12). In multivariable Cox regression, ILC patients showed advantage over IDC in overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.93, P = .001), whereas no significant differences in CFS (HR = 1.03, P = .33) and LR (HR = 1.17, P = .06) were found, which were consistent with results from matched cohort. In subgroup analyses, patients with grade III ILC had poorer CFS (HR = 1.23, P = .009) and higher LR (HR = 1.59, P = .01) than IDC.Conclusion
Histologic type is of prognostic importance in T1-2 patients receiving BCS, and surgeons should be cautious in performing BCS for individuals with grade III ILC. 相似文献5.

Introduction
Colorectal cancer is a major public health issue, with incidences continuing to rise owing to the growing and aging world population. Current screening strategies for colorectal cancer diagnosis suffer from various limitations, including invasiveness and poor uptake. Consequently, there is an unmet clinical need for a minimally invasive, sensitive, and specific method for detecting the presence of colorectal cancer and pre-malignant lesions.Patients and Methods
An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the primary (IgM) and secondary (IgG) adaptive humoral immune responses to a panel of previously identified cancer antigens in the sera of normal and adenoma samples, and sera from patients with colorectal cancer.Results
An optimal panel of 7 biomarkers capable of identifying patients with colorectal cancer as distinct from both normal and adenoma samples is identified. The cumulative sensitivity and specificity of the assay are 70.8% and 86.5%, respectively. The positive and negative predictive values of the cohort are 77.3% and 82.1%. This assay was not able to accurately discriminate between normal and adenoma samples. Patients whose serum was positive for the presence of anti-ICLN IgM autoantibodies had a significantly poorer 5-year survival than patients whose serum was negative (P = .004).Conclusion
This study describes a novel minimally invasive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-based method, capable of identifying patients with colorectal cancer as distinct from both normal and adenoma samples. Patients are likely to be far more amenable to a blood-based test such as the one described herein, rather than a fecal-based test, likely leading to increased patient uptake. 相似文献6.

Introduction
Despite the risk of morbidity and mortality associated with autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (ASCT), there are no clear guidelines as to how to screen for these risks. This study sought to determine the utility of pulmonary function tests (PFTs) prior to ASCT on predicting posttransplant clinical outcomes.Patients and Methods
Patients undergoing ASCT between 2010 and 2012 at the Ottawa Hospital (n = 172) were reviewed. PFT results prior to ASCT were retrieved. The primary outcomes were incidence of intensive care unit (ICU) admission, Seattle Criteria for pulmonary toxicities, and transplant-related mortality (TRM).Results
PFTs were performed for 91 (53%) patients prior to ASCT. There were more smokers in the PFT cohort than the non-PFT cohort (41.8% vs. 19.8%, respectively; P < .0001). Pulmonary toxicity as measured by the Seattle Criteria did not correlate with PFT results (normal vs. abnormal, 8.1% and 6.1%, respectively; P = 1.00). There were no differences in incidence of ICU admission by PFT result (normal vs. abnormal, 2.7% vs. 8.2%, respectively; P = .61) and no difference in TRM by PFT result (normal vs. abnormal, 0% vs. 2.0%, respectively; P = 1.00).Conclusion
Despite testing patients deemed higher risk for pulmonary toxicity, abnormal PFTs did not predict for an increased risk of pulmonary toxicity, ICU admission, or TRM at our center. 相似文献7.

Background
Radical cystectomy (RC) may occasionally be performed in individuals with metastatic urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (mUCB). However, the role of lymph node dissection (LND) for such cases is unknown. Thus, we tested the effect of RC on cancer-specific mortality (CSM) and overall mortality in mUCB patients and the effect of LND and its extent on CSM.Patients and Methods
Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2004-2013), we identified patients with mUCB who underwent RC with or without LND or non-RC management. Kaplan-Meier analyses and multivariable Cox regression models (CRMs) were used, after propensity score matching. The number of removed nodes best predicting CSM was identified using cubic splines and then was tested in multivariable CRMs.Results
Of 2314 patients, 319 (13.8%) underwent RC. After 2:1 propensity score matching, CSM-free survival was 14 versus 8 months (P < .001), and overall mortality–free survival was 12 versus 7 months (P < .001) for, respectively, RC and non-RC patients. In multivariable CRMs, lower CSM (hazard ratio = 0.48; P < .001) and lower overall mortality (hazard ratio = 0.49; P < .001) rates were recorded in RC patients. LND status did not affect CSM-free survival (13 vs. 10 months; P = .1). Cubic splines-derived cutoff of ≥ 13 number of removed nodes showed better CSM-free survival (20 vs. 11 months; P = .02) and reduced CSM in CRMs (hazard ratio = 0.67; P = .02).Conclusion
Our study validates the survival benefit of RC in mUCB and highlights the importance of more extensive LND. These findings may corroborate the hypothesis of potential cytoreductive effect of surgery in the context of metastatic disease. 相似文献8.

Background
Few data examined the potential survival benefit of chemotherapy (CHT) in the setting of metastatic upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (mUTUC). We hypothesized that a survival benefit might be associated with the use of CHT in nonsurgically treated primary mUTUC and tested this hypothesis within a large population-based cohort.Patients and Methods
Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2004-2014), we identified 539 patients with nonsurgically treated primary mUTUC. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW)-adjusted Kaplan-Meier plots, as well as multivariable Cox regression models relying on IPTW and landmark analyses, were used to test the effect of CHT versus no CHT on overall mortality and cancer-specific mortality.Results
Of 539 patients with metastatic UTUC, 277 (51.4%) underwent CHT. In nonadjusted and IPTW-adjusted Kaplan-Meier plots, CHT was associated with better overall survival (9 vs. 2 months; P < .001 in both analyses). In multivariable Cox regression models, CHT administration independently predicted lower overall mortality before IPTW (hazard ratio [HR], 0.31; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.25-0.39; P < .001), as well as after IPTW adjustment (HR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.25-0.38; P < .001). Similar results were recorded in landmark analyses (HR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.38-0.70; P < .001). Finally, virtually the same results were obtained for cancer-specific mortality.Conclusions
Our analyses suggest a survival benefit after CHT in the setting of nonsurgically treated primary mUTUC. 相似文献9.

Background
Many elderly breast cancer patients might just receive palliative local surgery, especially those with locally advanced breast cancer (LABC). However, palliative tumor removal might lead to perioperative residual tumor growth. In this study, we aimed to determine the survival effect of palliative local surgery without definitive axillary surgery for LABC in elderly patients.Patients and Methods
Patients age 70 years or older diagnosed with T3/4M0 breast cancer, who received no surgery, mastectomy, or lumpectomy without axillary surgery, were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results cancer database from 1973 to 2014. The overall survival effect of palliative local surgery was determined by using multivariable Cox regression, and propensity score matching was applied to confirm the results.Results
A total of 2616 female breast cancer patients age 70 years or older diagnosed with T3/4M0 (without inflammatory breast cancer) were identified; 1374 received no cancer-directed surgery, 583 received lumpectomy without axillary surgery, and 659 received mastectomy without axillary surgery. Adjusted for potential confounders, both types of palliative local surgeries (lumpectomy: hazard ratio [HR], 0.95; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.71-1.27; P = .719; mastectomy: HR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.65-1.17; P = .371) were not associated with overall survival compared with no surgery within hormone receptor-positive patients. However, mastectomy strongly improved survival within hormone receptor-negative patients. Palliative local surgery did not change the patterns of mortality.Conclusion
For elderly patients diagnosed with LABC, not candidates for standard therapies, mastectomy should be recommended as palliative therapy for hormone receptor-negative, but not for hormone receptor-positive patients. 相似文献10.

Introduction
We evaluated differences in the clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis based on the presence of ground glass opacity (GGO) components in small-sized lung adenocarcinoma.Methods
We retrospectively investigated 634 lung adenocarcinomas classed as c-stage IA in the eighth edition TNM classification. Staging was defined according to the solid component size measured by thin-section computed tomography. All tumors were grouped into either a GGO or solid group, based on the presence of a GGO component.Results
Of the cases, 215 (34%) were classed as c-stage IA1 (T1mi: 88, T1a-GGO: 102, T1a-solid: 25), 255 (40%) as c-stage IA2 (T1b-GGO: 122, T1b-solid: 133), and 164 (26%) as c-stage IA3 (T1c-GGO: 44, T1c-solid: 120). Among the 546 c-stage IA cases excluding the T1mi lesions, Cox regression analysis revealed that presence of GGO was an independently significant prognosticator (p = 0.024). The result was validated in 494 c-stage IA lung adenocarcinomas with a nonpredominant GGO component, showing the presence of GGO as a significant prognosticator (p = 0.048). When we evaluated the prognostic impact of GGO presence in each clinical stage, the 5-year overall survival (OS) was significantly different between the GGO and solid groups (IA1: 97.8% versus 86.6%, p = 0.026; IA2: 89.3% versus 75.2%, p = 0.007; IA3: 88.5% versus 62.3%, p = 0.003). Furthermore, the 5-year overall survival b was distinct in parallel similar pathologic findings when comparing a lepidic versus an invasive component (IA1: 97.9% versus 85.6%, p = 0.031; IA2: 86.1% versus 69.4%, p = 0.007; IA3: 77.5% versus 55.8%, p < 0.001).Conclusions
Clinicopathologic and oncologic outcomes were disparate based on the presence of a GGO component in the eighth edition TNM classification of c-stage IA lung adenocarcinoma. 相似文献12.

Background
Cardiovascular events (CVEs) have been observed in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia treated with second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors.Patients and Methods
We retrospectively evaluated the incidence of CVEs on 233 consecutive patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, of which 116 were treated with imatinib, 75 with dasatinib, and 42 with nilotinib. The median follow-up was 2047, 1712, and 1773 days, respectively.Results
The cumulative incidence of CVEs was 4.29%. Three events occurred during dasatinib treatment, 6 during nilotinib treatment, and none during imatinib treatment (P ≤ .001). Arterial occlusive events occurred in 2 (2.6%) of 75 patients treated with dasatinib and in 6 (14.2%) of 42 patients treated with nilotinib (P ≤ .001). Furthermore, all of them occurred in patients with high-risk (n = 2) and very high-risk (n = 6) cardiovascular risk, contributing to 4.3% of mortality.Conclusion
CVEs were more frequent in patients treated with second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Arterial occlusive events were more frequent in patients treated with nilotinib, with high and very high cardiovascular risk. 相似文献13.

Objective
To evaluate the impact of nerve-sparing (NS) approach on outcomes of patients undergoing minimally invasive radical hysterectomy (MRH) for locally advanced stage cervical cancer (LACC).Methods
Data of consecutive patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery for LACC were retrospectively retrieved in a multi-institutional setting from 2009 to 2016. All patients included had minimally invasive class III radical hysterectomy (MRH or NS-MRH). Propensity matching algorithm was used to decrease possible allocation bias when comparing outcomes between groups.Results
Overall, 83 patients were included. The prevalence of patients undergoing NS approach increased aver the study period (from 7% in the year 2009–2010 to 97% in the year 2015–2016; p-for-trend < 0.001). NS-MRH and MRH were performed in 47 (57%) and 36 (43%) patients, respectively. After the application the propensity-matching algorithm, we compared 35 patients' pair (total 70 patients). Postoperative complications rate was similar between groups. Patients undergoing NS-LRH experienced shorter hospital stay than patients undergoing LRH (3.6 vs. 5.0 days). 60-day pelvic floor dysfunction rates, including voiding, fecal and sexual alterations, were lower in the NS group in comparison to control group (p = 0.02). Five-year disease-free (p = 0.77) and overall (p = 0.36) survivals were similar comparing NS-MRH with MRH.Conclusions
The implementation of NS approach in the setting of LACC improves patients' outcomes, minimizing pelvic dysfunction rates. NS approach has not detrimental effects on survival outcomes. 相似文献14.

Introduction
Electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) is a minimally invasive technology that guides endoscopic tools to pulmonary lesions. ENB has been evaluated primarily in small, single-center studies; thus, the diagnostic yield in a generalizable setting is unknown.Methods
NAVIGATE is a prospective, multicenter, cohort study that evaluated ENB using the superDimension navigation system (Medtronic, Minneapolis, Minnesota). In this United States cohort analysis, 1215 consecutive subjects were enrolled at 29 academic and community sites from April 2015 to August 2016.Results
The median lesion size was 20.0 mm. Fluoroscopy was used in 91% of cases (lesions visible in 60%) and radial endobronchial ultrasound in 57%. The median ENB planning time was 5 minutes; the ENB-specific procedure time was 25 minutes. Among 1157 subjects undergoing ENB-guided biopsy, 94% (1092 of 1157) had navigation completed and tissue obtained. Follow-up was completed in 99% of subjects at 1 month and 80% at 12 months. The 12-month diagnostic yield was 73%. Pathology results of the ENB-aided tissue samples showed malignancy in 44% (484 of 1092). Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for malignancy were 69%, 100%, 100%, and 56%, respectively. ENB-related Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events grade 2 or higher pneumothoraces (requiring admission or chest tube placement) occurred in 2.9%. The ENB-related Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events grade 2 or higher bronchopulmonary hemorrhage and grade 4 or higher respiratory failure rates were 1.5% and 0.7%, respectively.Conclusions
NAVIGATE shows that an ENB-aided diagnosis can be obtained in approximately three-quarters of evaluable patients across a generalizable cohort based on prospective 12-month follow-up in a pragmatic setting with a low procedural complication rate. 相似文献15.

Background
To investigate the clinical outcomes in patients with high-risk prostate cancer (PCa) treated with neoadjuvant chemohormonal therapy (NCHT) before radical prostatectomy (RP).Patients and Methods
Our NCHT protocol involved complete androgen blockade followed by 6 cycles of docetaxel (30 mg/m2) plus estramustine phosphate (560 mg). NCHT was provided to 60 patients with PCa before RP, and we compared the clinical and pathologic outcomes with those of 349 patients with high-risk PCa who underwent RP alone using propensity score matching. The data for those who underwent RP alone were obtained from the Michinoku Japan Urological Cancer Study Group database.Results
In the NCHT group, 10.0% experienced pathologic complete response, 3.3% had positive surgical margins, and 13.3% developed severe complications (Clavien-Dindo grade III or higher) after RP. The median follow-up duration was 42.5 months, and the 5-year biochemical recurrence (BCR)-free survival was 60.1%. In multivariate analysis, pN+ was an independent prognostic factor for BCR (hazard ratio = 5.251, 95%CI 1.300-21.201; P = .020). In propensity score matching, the BCR rate in the NCHT group was significantly lower than that in the RP alone group (P = .021). In subgroup analyses, the BCR rate in patients with a single high-risk factor was significantly lower in the NCHT group than in the RP-alone group (P = .027).Conclusion
NCHT before RP can reduce the risk of BCR in patients with high-risk PCa, particularly if a single high-risk factor is present. However, the potential for perioperative complications should be considered. 相似文献16.

Background
Limited information is available about the pattern of relapse after perioperative chemotherapy with radical cystectomy (RC) vs. RC alone in muscle-invasive bladder cancer.Patients and Methods
Data from 1082 patients of the Retrospective International Study of Invasive/Advanced Cancer of the Urothelium database, treated from February 1990 to December 2013 at 27 centers in the United States, Europe, Israel, and Canada, were collected. Locoregional relapse was defined as any pelvic lymph node or soft tissue-only recurrences. Cumulative incidence methods were used to estimate time to locoregional relapse (TTRL). Cox regression analyses were performed and a nomogram for 12-month locoregional relapse-free survival (RFS) was developed. The nomogram was applied to an external data set (n = 1021).Results
A total of 517 patients (47.8%) developed a relapse: 177 (16.4%) exclusive locoregional relapse. In multivariable analyses, perioperative chemotherapy was associated with longer TTRL (P < .001). Other factors were nonurothelial histology (P = .013), pT-stage (P < .001), and surgical margins (P < .001). The concordance index of the model was 0.681 (95% bootstrapped confidence interval, 0.666-0.716). Risk group categories were obtained according to nomogram tertiles. Despite, overall, observed locoregional RFS in the validation cohort exceeding predicted results, for high-risk patients (80 points or less, lowest nomogram tertile) observed 12-month RFS was similar between development and validation cohorts (60.1% and 66.6%). The study is limited by its retrospective nature.Conclusion
In the largest study, to our knowledge, that analyzed locoregional recurrences after RC, we propose a risk prediction tool for exclusive locoregional failures that might be suitable for clinical studies. Patients best suited for adjuvant radiotherapy might be those within the lowest nomogram tertile. Prospective trials are needed to validate findings. 相似文献17.

Aims
Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is established as a superior treatment option to definitive radiotherapy in the non-surgical management of oesophageal cancer. For patients precluded from CRT through choice or comorbidity there is little evidence to guide delivery of single-modality radiotherapy. In this study we outline outcomes for patients unfit for CRT who received a hypofractionated radiotherapy (HRT) regimen.Materials and methods
A retrospective UK single-centre analysis of 61 consecutive patients with lower- or middle-third adenocarcinoma (OAC; 61%) or squamous cell carcinoma of the oesophagus managed using HRT with radical intent between April 2009 and 2014. Treatment consisted of 50 Gy in 16 fractions (n = 49, 80.3%) or 50–52.5 Gy in 20 fractions (n = 12, 19.7%). Outcomes were referenced against a contemporaneous comparator cohort of 80 (54% OAC) consecutive patients managed with conventionally fractionated CRT within the same centre.Results
Three-year and median overall survival were, respectively, 56.9% and 29 months with HRT compared with 55.5% and 26 months for CRT; adjusted hazard ratio 0.79 (95% confidence interval 0.48–1.28). Grade 3 and 4 toxicity rates were low at 16.4% (n = 10) for those receiving HRT and 40.2% (n = 32) for the CRT group. In patients with OAC, CRT delivered superior overall survival (hazard ratio 0.46; 95% confidence interval 0.25–0.85) and progression-free survival (hazard ratio 0.45; 95% confidence interval 0.23–0.88) when compared with HRT.Conclusions
The HRT regimen described here was safe and tolerable in patients unable to receive CRT, and delivered promising survival outcomes. The use of HRT for the treatment of oesophageal cancer, both alone and as a sequential or concurrent treatment with chemotherapy, requires further study. New precision radiotherapy technologies may provide additional scope for improving outcomes in oesophageal cancer using HRT-based approaches and should be evaluated. 相似文献18.

Introduction
The purpose of this study was to explore whether the practice of postoperative renal cell carcinoma (RCC) surveillance affords a survival benefit by investigating whether detection of RCC recurrences in an asymptomatic versus symptomatic manner influences mortality.Patients and Methods
We identified 737 patients who underwent partial or radical nephrectomy for M0 RCC between 1998 and 2016. Overall survival and disease-specific survival stratified by the type of recurrence detection (asymptomatic vs. symptomatic) was estimated using Kaplan-Meier probabilities both from the time of surgery and from the time of recurrence. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to evaluate the impact of the type of recurrence detection on mortality.Results
A total of 78 patients (10.6%) experienced recurrence after surgery, of whom 63 (80.8%) were asymptomatic (detected using routine surveillance) and 15 (19.2%) were symptomatic. The median postoperative follow-up was 47.2 months (interquartile range, 26.3-89.4 months). Five- and 10-year overall survival, from time of surgery, among patients with asymptomatic versus symptomatic recurrences was 57% and 39% versus 24% and 8%, respectively (P = .0002). As compared with asymptomatic recurrences, patients with symptomatic recurrences had an increased risk of overall (OD) and disease-specific death (DSD) both when examined from the time of surgery (OD: hazard ratio [HR], 3.16; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.33-7.49; P = .0091 and DSD: HR, 3.44; 95% CI, 1.38-8.57; P = .0079) and from the time of recurrence (OD: HR, 2.93; 95% CI, 1.24-6.93; P = .0143 and DSD: HR, 3.62; 95% CI, 1.45-9.01; P = .0058).Conclusions
Capturing RCC recurrences in an asymptomatic manner during routine surveillance is associated with improved patient survival. 相似文献19.

Background
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by chromosomal translocation, deletion, and amplification in plasma cells, resulting in a huge heterogeneity in its outcomes. In the era of novel agents such as bortezomib, thalidomide, and the cycles of treatment, risk stratification by chromosomal aberrations may enable a more rational risk-stratification selection of therapeutic approaches in patients with MM.Patients and Methods
We performed a retrospective study in 63 patients with MM; 29 (46.03%) with 1q21 gain and 34 (53.97%) without gain.Result
In all patients, we did not find that the patients with 1q21 gain had significantly better survival compared with patients without 1q21 gain (overall survival, P = .6916; progression-free survival, P = .8740). However, in 1q21 gain patients, we found that the bortezomib group had significantly better survival compared with the non-bortezomib group in terms of both the 3-year estimated overall survival (82.3% vs. 18.8%; P = .0154) and progression-free survival (62.8% vs. 8.75%; P = .0385).Conclusion
1q21 gain detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization is not as high risk for poor prognosis with regard to time for overall survival. And the clinical outcome of patients with 1q21 gain can be improved in those who received no less than 4 cycles of bortezomib-based therapy (bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone). 相似文献20.
