Background
Controversy exists regarding the appropriateness of immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC).Patients and Methods
By using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, data of patients with de novo MBC undergoing mastectomy with or without IBR were assessed. The trend of IBR in de novo MBC was explored. Comparisons of the distribution of clinicopathologic characteristics were evaluated by chi-square and Fisher exact tests. The predictors of IBR in de novo MBC were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression. The survival outcomes were compared by Cox hazards models adjusting for known clinicopathologic variables in both the entire population and in the matched cohorts.Results
Between 1998 and 2015, 5.2% of patients with de novo MBC undergoing mastectomy received IBR. The rate of IBR increased significantly, from 6.3% in 1998 to 16.8% in 2015. Patients undergoing IBR were younger and had smaller tumor size, fewer positive lymph nodes, lower proportion of hormone receptor–negative disease and lung metastasis, and better economic status. They were also more likely to receive radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Although IBR was an independent favorable prognostic factor for breast cancer–specific survival and overall survival in the whole population, there were no statistically significant differences between IBR and mastectomy for breast cancer–specific survival (P = .892) and overall survival (P = .708) in the well-matched analysis.Conclusion
IBR in selected de novo MBC could be an acceptable practice when balancing quality of life, underlying health care burden, and oncologic risks. 相似文献2.

Background
To investigate the superiority of breast-conserving surgery (BCS) plus radiotherapy (RT) compared with mastectomy alone for patients with stage I breast cancer in a real-world setting.Patients and Methods
The data from patients with histologically confirmed stage I breast cancer treated from 1999 to 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. The association of outcomes with the choice of treatment (BCS plus RT vs. mastectomy) was evaluated using multivariable proportional hazards regression and further confirmed using propensity score matching methods.Results
Of 6137 eligible patients in the present study, 1296 underwent BCS plus RT and 4841 underwent mastectomy plus axillary lymph node dissection without RT (mastectomy group). Multivariate analysis revealed that BCS plus RT was related to similar locoregional recurrence-free survival but greater distant metastasis-free survival (P = .003) and overall survival (P = .036) compared with mastectomy. For the 1252 pairs of patients matched using propensity score matching, the BCS plus RT groups enjoyed significantly greater 5-year overall survival (99.1% vs. 96.1%; P = .001), distant metastasis-free survival (97.0% vs. 92.2%; P < .001), and disease-free survival (95.3% vs. 90.2%; P = .001) compared with the mastectomy group.Conclusion
BCS plus RT provided better outcomes than mastectomy for eligible patients with stage I breast cancer and should be offered as a preferred treatment option. 相似文献3.

Purpose
We investigated the feasibility and accuracy of using carbon fiducials to localize the lumpectomy cavity with 2-dimensional kV imaging for early stage breast cancer radiation therapy.Methods and Materials
Carbon fiducials were placed intraoperatively in the periphery of the lumpectomy cavity. Nine patients received whole breast irradiation with a boost, and 2 patients received 3-dimensional conformal partial breast irradiation. A total of 89 fractions were assessed for setup errors relative to a predefined gold standard, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) match to the lumpectomy cavity, using the following 4 setup methods: (1) Align skin tattoos with lasers; (2) match bone with 2-dimensional–2-dimensional (2D/2D) kV onboard imaging (OBI); (3) match the whole breast with CBCT; and (4) match carbon fiducials with 2D/2D kV OBI. The margin for the planning target volume (PTV) was calculated by 2 standard deviations of the setup errors, and compared among the 4 setup methods. Setup errors for patients treated with free breathing and patients with deep inspiration breath hold were also compared.Results
The carbon fiducials were sufficiently visible on OBI for matching and introduced minimal artifacts. Of the 4 alignment methods, 2D/2D OBI match to fiducials resulted in the smallest setup errors. The PTV margin was 12 mm for aligning skin tattoos using lasers, 9.2 mm for matching bone on OBI, 6.5 mm for matching breast on CBCT, and 3.5 mm for matching fiducials on 2D/2D OBI. Compared with free breathing, deep inspiration breath hold generally reduced the standard deviations of the setup errors, but further investigation would be needed.Conclusions
Matching to carbon fiducials increased the localization accuracy to the lumpectomy cavity. This reduces residual setup error and PTV margins, facilitating tissue sparing without diminishing treatment efficacy. 相似文献4.

Background
Breast cancer metastases to an ipsilateral supraclavicular lymph node is assigned a N3 status in the TNM system and thus classified as stage III disease in the American Joint Commission on Cancer staging manual. Breast cancer metastatic to contralateral axillary lymph node (CAM) without metastases to any other distant organ is currently assigned M1 status (stage IV) instead of N3 (stage III).Patients and Methods
We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of breast cancer patients diagnosed with CAM for their clinical presentation, pathologic diagnoses, treatment, and follow-up data. Patients who had distant metastases at the time of CAM diagnosis were excluded from the study.Results
We report 12 breast cancer patients who developed CAM but no evidence of metastases in any other distant organ documented with extensive imaging workup. Imaging studies and thorough pathologic evaluation of the prophylactic total mastectomy specimen did not reveal a primary in the breast to account for the metastases in the axillary node.Conclusion
Findings of our study as well as previous studies support that lymph node metastases in the contralateral axilla represents a locoregional spread of the tumor from the index breast via lymphatics rather than hematogenous spread. Therefore, isolated CAM in breast cancer patients should not be classified as stage IV disease. 相似文献5.

Background
Long-term posture change after unilateral mastectomy in breast cancer patients can affect spinal alignment during the postoperative period. We evaluated the effect of immediate breast reconstruction on body posture after surgery by analyzing spinal alignment with radiographic studies.Materials and Methods
Preoperative and 2-year postoperative chest radiographs of 116 patients who received immediate breast reconstruction with unilateral mastectomy and 250 patients who underwent unilateral mastectomy without reconstruction were retrospectively reviewed. Cobb angle, the direction of spinal curvature, upper and lower ends of the thoracic curve, and curve length were measured and compared between both groups. Additional patient information including age, height, weight, body mass index, and side of surgery were collected via chart review.Results
There was a significant difference in the Cobb angle between the preoperative and 2-year postoperative chest radiographs between the immediate breast reconstruction group and mastectomy group. Without considering curvature change, the difference was ?0.593° in the reconstruction group and 2.698° in the mastectomy-alone group (P = .02), and considering curvature change, the difference was 0.335° and 3.972° in the reconstruction and mastectomy-alone group, respectively (P < .01).Conclusion
The amount of change in postoperative spinal alignment was significantly smaller in the immediate breast reconstruction group compared with patients who received only unilateral mastectomy without reconstruction. We suggest that immediate breast reconstruction positively affects spinal alignment, leading to better posture and physical function. 相似文献6.

Background
Previous observational studies reported the superior survival of patients with early-stage breast cancer who underwent breast-conserving therapy (BCT, lumpectomy plus postsurgical radiation) compared to that of those who underwent mastectomy. Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is not the same disease as invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) as it has distinct biologic features and thus requires unique consideration and research.Methods
We selected women (≤50 years of age) from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database diagnosed with stage T1–2, N0–1, M0 primary breast cancer with invasive lobular features between 1998 and 2011, that were treated with either BCT or mastectomy with and without radiation. We assessed survival proportions using the Kaplan-Meier method and hazard ratios using Cox proportional hazards models. Breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) served as the primary endpoint.Results
A total of 3393 eligible young ILC patients were identified, 1391 (41%) of which underwent lumpectomy followed by radiation. The 10-year BCSS rates for patients who received BCT, mastectomy alone and mastectomy with radiation were 95.7%, 94.2% and 89.3%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that BCSS was not improved in patients assigned to mastectomy alone group (HR = 0.86; 95% CI 0.57–1.28) or mastectomy with postsurgical radiation group (HR = 0.97; 95% CI 0.58–1.62) compared to that in those who underwent BCT. The results did not changed when evaluating the 1998–2004 and 2005–2011 time periods separately.Conclusion
None of the treatment demonstrated an absolute superiority in young women with early-stage ILC. Future studies with more detailed analyses of the confounding factors are worthwhile. 相似文献7.

Introduction
The present study aimed to detect the factors associated with psychological distress (PD) in young Moroccan patients with breast cancer, with a special focus on the type of surgical procedure.Patients and Methods
We collected social, demographic, and clinical data from female patients, aged < 45 years, with localized stage breast cancer who had undergone either radical mastectomy or conservative surgery and for whom adjuvant chemotherapy was indicated. We used the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to assess the psychological status. The relationship between the variables and PD was analyzed using simple and multiple logistic regression analyses.Results
A total of 122 women were enrolled, of whom 41 (33.6%) had a HADS global score ≥ 15. The HAD anxiety and depression subscores were ≥ 11 for 10 (8.2%) and 8 (6.6%) patients, respectively. On multivariate analysis, adjusted for marital status and receipt of analgesic and/or anxiolytic treatment, we found that radical mastectomy (odds ratio [OR], 5.747; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.342-24.608), living in a difficult emotional (OR, 7.366; 95% CI, 1.727-31.41) and/or financial (OR, 16.521; 95% CI, 3.574-76.36) situation, and a lack of social and/or family support (OR, 19.617; 95% CI, 3.549-108.43) were independent factors associated with PD.Conclusion
Breast-conserving surgery should be performed whenever possible for young women to avoid the psychological repercussions of radical procedures. 相似文献8.

Background
Based on estrogen active substances, many women consume soy foods in the belief that it could prevent breast cancer (BC). Women with different molecular subtypes would be likely to have diverse reactions to soy foods, especially those with the estrogen-receptor-positive (ER+) subtype. The aim of the current study is to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) on soy foods in premenopausal patients with Lumina A subtype of BC (LABC) after soy food treatment, and to further investigate the critical molecule change.Materials and Methods
GSE58792 retrieved from Gene Expression Omnibus was analyzed to obtain DEGs using GEO2R. Gene Ontology and pathway enrichment analysis were performed using FunRich and GeneMINIA. Overall survival of critical genes was performed by the Kaplan-Meier plotter online tool.Results
A total of 108 DEGs were obtained from the dataset, among which 35 were up-regulated and 73 down-regulated. Soy foods significantly reduced the expression of TFF3, TFF1, GATA3, and ESR1, which were related to the activity of the ER-related pathway and the sensitivity of tamoxifen. Furthermore, the lower expressions of TOX3, FSIP1, ESR1, and CLGN were related to prolonged survival time of patients with BC. The most significant signaling pathways were epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in up-regulated DEGs, mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition, and mammary gland alveolus development in down-regulated DEGs, which were all related to the development and prognosis of BC.Conclusions
Soy foods could dramatically alter the ER-related gene profile in LABC. Particularly, down-regulated DEGs of TFF3, TFF1, GATA3, and ESR1 might weaken the sensitivity of tamoxifen and increase the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in premenopausal patients with LABC. 相似文献9.

Introduction
The 21-gene recurrence score (RS) has been extensively studied and validated in patients with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer; however, RS testing is not routinely performed in patients with HER2-positive (HER2+) disease. We sought to determine patterns of RS testing, to characterize RS distributions, and to determine the impact of RS results on clinical decision-making for patients with ER+, HER2+ breast cancer.Materials and Methods
Using the Surveillance and Epidemiology End Results program database, we identified women with ER+, HER2+ breast cancer. We stratified patients using TAILORx RS cutoffs and evaluated treatment characteristics across patients. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to determine factors associated with RS testing and receipt of a high-risk RS.Results
Overall, 5% of patients with ER+, HER2+, early stage breast cancer underwent RS testing. The distribution of RS testing by TAILORx cutoffs were: high-risk, 17%; intermediate-risk, 49%; and low-risk, 34%. Chemotherapy utilization among those not tested was 66%. Among those tested, utilization was significantly associated with RS results: 67% of high-risk, 30% of intermediate-risk, and 19% of low-risk patients received chemotherapy. Progesterone receptor-negative status, larger tumor size, and high tumor grade were significantly associated with high-risk RS.Conclusions
RS testing is used sparingly among patients with HER2+ early-stage breast cancer; however, test results appear to impact clinician’s decision-making on chemotherapy use. 相似文献10.

Background
Implant-based breast reconstruction after nipple-sparing mastectomy has been the most common breast reconstruction procedure performed, for both breast cancer treatment and prophylactically. Subpectoral implant placement with partial detachment of the pectoralis major muscle has been the procedure of choice for staged reconstruction and direct-to-implantation. Prepectoral implant placement has recently increased in popularity among plastic surgeons owing to the high rates of animation deformity, loss of muscle function, and chronic pain observed with submuscular implant placement. Acellular dermal matrices or synthetic meshes have been used for implant coverage and support to avoid capsular contracture and implant visibility. In the present study, we have introduced breast reconstruction actualized in nipple-sparing mastectomy and direct-to-implant with prepectoral polyurethane positioning (BRAND4P).Patients and Methods
A total of 34 nipple-sparing mastectomies and immediate direct-to-implant breast reconstructions with prepectoral polyurethane-coated implant placement were performed in 21 patients (13 bilateral and 8 unilateral). The implant was placed subcutaneously in the exact place of the excised breast parenchyma with no further coverage.Results
After a mean follow-up of 4 months, no major complications had been observed. No patient presented with animation deformity or grade III-IV capsular contracture. Patient satisfaction, assessed using the BREAST-Q, was excellent.Conclusions
The BRAND4P method represents a novel prepectoral approach and a feasible alternative to subpectoral implant placement among the available implant-based breast reconstruction techniques. 相似文献11.

Background
The study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and reliability of ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (US-VABB) for sampling of microcalcifications indicative of cancer when stereotactic vacuum-assisted breast biopsy cannot be performed because of reasons such as thin breast tissue, insufficient thickness at compression, and microcalcification situated close to the chest wall or in breast tissue of the axillary tail.Patients and Methods
The study population was selected from among 187 patients with microcalcifications detected on mammogram. The findings were classified using the American College of Radiology criteria as Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System 3, 4, or 5. 30 Thirty were not eligible for stereotactic guidance because of reasons such as small breast size, compression thickness <2 cm, or microcalcification located in the axillary tails or close to chest wall. In 23 patients microcalcifications were detected at ultrasound, and US-VABB was performed. The other 7 patients underwent surgical biopsy. In the 23 patients who underwent US-VABB, multiple core samples were taken after a specimen mammography to ensure that microcalcifications were included.Results
Biopsy was successful in all cases of US-VABB. The procedure was well tolerated, and there were no complications.Conclusion
US-VABB should be preferred over diagnostic surgical biopsy when microcalcifications are sonographically visible and stereotactic guidance is contraindicated. The procedure appears to be reliable and accurate, with added advantages such as low cost and absence of radiation exposure. 相似文献12.

Background
The proportion of elderly women diagnosed with breast cancer is rising. Standard treatment, including axillary staging, is often not given to these patients. This study aimed to investigate reasons to omit any surgical axillary staging or to refrain from completion axillary lymph node dissection (cALND) after positive-sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB); so-called “incomplete staging”. Furthermore, the impact of incomplete staging on regional control and survival in patients aged 75 or older was evaluated.Methods
A retrospective cohort study was conducted including all primary breast cancer patients aged 75 or older, diagnosed between 2001 and 2008, and documented by the Netherlands Cancer Registry (NCR). Patients with incomplete staging were compared to patients with complete axillary staging. Survival analyses were used to determine the risk of local, regional and distant recurrence and overall survival.Results
In total, 1467 of 2116 (69%) patients were considered eligible, of whom 258 (17.2%) had incomplete axillary staging. For 93 patients, diagnosed in 6 of the 10 hospitals in the NCR-area, examination of clinical records revealed that age, comorbidities and patient preferences were the main reason for omitting complete axillary staging. The 10-year axillary recurrence rate in these 93 patients was 5.2% (95% CI, 0.03–10.1). Of the 77 patients who had died, 64 (83%) died of non-breast-cancer-related causes. No significant difference in overall survival was observed between patients with or without complete axillary staging.Conclusion
This study demonstrates that the omission of complete axillary staging is common in selected elderly breast cancer patients with ≥2 comorbidities, with no apparent impact on regional control and 10-year overall survival. 相似文献13.

Background
One of the current therapeutic challenges for women with breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is distinguishing women with complete axillary nodal response from those with axillary residual disease to promote a personalized therapeutic strategy including sparing axillary surgery.This study set out to develop a risk scoring system (RSS) for predicting probability of nodal pathological complete response (pCR) in women presenting with cN1 breast cancer who received NAC.Methods
Data of 116 women with cN1 breast cancer who received NAC between January 2009 and December 2013 were abstracted from our prospectively maintained database. A risk model based on factors impacting nodal axillary was developed.Results
The overall nodal conversion rate was 36.2% (42/116). Axillary nodal response was associated with three variables: menopausal status [Odds ratio (OR)?=?0.23; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.09–0.60], the radiological % of breast tumour shrinkage ≥50% (OR?=?3.71; 95% CI 1.51–9.10), and negative hormone receptors (ER-, PR-) (OR?=?2.41; 95% CI 0.99–5.87). These variables were included in the RSS and assigned scores ranging from 0 to 2. The discrimination of the RSS was 0.78 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.69–0.86]. A total score of 3 points corresponded to the optimal threshold of the RSS. The diagnostic accuracy was 74.1%.Conclusions
This study shows that the probability of axillary nodal pCR after NAC can be accurately predicted so that women at high probability may be spared of axillary surgery. 相似文献14.

Background
The aim of this study was to assess the outcomes of patients with de novo stage IV breast cancer after locoregional treatment (LRT) of primary site.Patients and Methods
We studied 245 patients diagnosed with de novo stage IV breast cancer. LRT of the primary tumor (+ systemic therapy) was performed in 82 (34%) patients (surgery, 27; surgery + radiotherapy (RT), 46; and RT, 9). Among those undergoing surgery, 64 (88%) patients underwent mastectomy, and 9 (12%) patients underwent breast-conserving surgery (BCS). Local recurrence-free survival (LRFS) and overall survival (OS) were investigated, and propensity score matching was used to balance patient distributions.Results
The 5-year LRFS and OS rates were 27% and 50%, respectively. Advanced T stage (T4), liver or brain metastasis, ≥ 5 metastatic sites, and absence of hormone therapy were significant adverse factors for LRFS, whereas T4 stage and absence of hormone therapy were significant for OS. The LRT group demonstrated significantly more favorable outcomes (5-year LRFS, 61%; 5-year OS, 71%), especially after surgery. After matching, survival rates remained significantly higher for patients who received LRT (5-year LRFS, 62% vs. 20%; P < .001; 5-year OS, 73% vs. 45%; P = .02). BCS + RT was superior to mastectomy ± RT, which can be attributed to more patients with a low tumor burden undergoing BCS + RT. Outcomes were better with post-mastectomy RT in selected patients (≥ N2, ≥ T3, or T2N1).Conclusions
Upfront LRT including RT is an important option together with systemic therapies for de novo stage IV breast cancer. 相似文献15.

Background
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or ultrasonography (US) alone is limited in the ability to predict the pathologic complete response (pCR) accurately after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). The aim of the present study was to predict the pCR using MRI combined with second-look US in primary breast cancer patients.Materials and Methods
A total of 1274 consecutive primary breast cancer patients who were examined by MRI and second-look US before and after NAC and had undergone breast-conserving surgery from 2004 to 2014 were included. The positive predictive value (PPV) of a clinical complete response (cCR) by MRI alone and MRI plus US was assessed. A CR was defined as no residual invasive carcinoma. The presence of a residual in situ component was also assessed (ypTis).Results
Of the 1274 patients, 333 (26.1%) had a pCR (ypT0/is), and 102 (8.0%) had a residual in situ component (ypTis). A cCR was found in 247 patients (19.4%) using MRI alone and in 182 patients (14.3%) using MRI plus US. The PPV for a cCR using MRI alone was 79.4% and the PPV for MRI plus US was 86.8%. The PPV for a cCR by MRI plus US was the greatest at 98.1% in the estrogen receptor-negative (ER?)/human epidermal growth factor receptor-positive (HER2+) group (86.5% in the ER+/HER2+, 83.0% in the ER?/HER2?, and 64.7% in the ER+/HER2? groups). The PPV for residual in situ component was as low as 72.2%.Conclusion
Our results have shown that MRI combined with second-look US in predicting for a pCR was useful compared with MRI alone, especially for ER?/HER2+. However, it was difficult to predict for the presence of a residual in situ component. Our ongoing prospective multi-institutional study has shown that adding vacuum-assisted biopsy to MRI plus second-look US is warranted to improve the prediction of pCR for omitting breast surgery. 相似文献16.

Introduction
Knowing the important factors influencing sexual function and body image might facilitate the recovery process of breast cancer survivors. Surgery type, relationship quality, and partner support might be modified to create a space for psychosexual intervention.Patients and Methods
This retrospective questionnaire-based study was performed on 128 women aged 18 to 65 years who were free of disease at time of study entry and who underwent surgical treatment for breast cancer. Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders criteria were used to assessed female sexual dysfunction (FSD). Changes in Sexual Functioning Questionnaire (CSFQ) were used to measure sexual function, whereas the Body Image After Breast Cancer Questionnaire (BIBCQ) was used to assess body image. The support of the partner was evaluated by the Provisions of Social Relation Scale (PSRS).Results
The median age of the studied respondents was 52.5 ± 10.1 years. FSD was diagnosed in 27.3% women. Lower physical satisfaction in relationship (odds ratio [OR] = 2.3), undergoing mastectomy (OR = 4.1) higher level of anxiety (OR = 4.2), and shorter duration of relationship (OR = 1.1) as well as not receiving adjuvant chemotherapy (F = 3.54), higher level of emotional satisfaction in relationship (F = 20.32), longer time after completion of oncologic treatment (F = 8.76), undergoing breast-conserving therapy (compared to mastectomy) (F = 13.21), and lower level of anxiety (F = 31,25) were important factors for the prevalence of FSD and positive body image, respectively.Conclusion
Type of surgery, time after completion of treatment, level of anxiety, adjuvant chemotherapy, partner support, and satisfying quality of relationship are important factors for sexual function, sexual quality of life, and body image in female breast cancer survivors. 相似文献17.

Aims
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has inferior outcomes to other subtypes of breast cancer. We studied the demographics and baseline breast cancer characteristics of patients in New Zealand with TNBC and assessed survival outcomes and prognostic/predictive factors.Materials and methods
We searched the New Zealand breast cancer registry database and identified patients with TNBC without distant metastatic disease. We retrieved demographic, tumour characteristic and treatment information. Locoregional recurrence-free survival, breast cancer-specific survival (BSS), metastasis-free survival (MRFS) and overall survival were determined. Predefined univariate and multivariate analyses were carried out investigating the association of survival outcomes with treatment and tumour characteristics.Results
In total, 1390 patients were identified, with a median follow-up of 3.5 years. The median age was 55 years. Thirty-eight per cent were node positive and 79% were grade III. Mastectomy was carried out in 53%, adjuvant radiation delivered in 66% and chemotherapy in 69%. The significant predictive factors for overall survival, BSS and MRFS were radiotherapy, chemotherapy and neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The significant prognostic indicators were lymphovascular invasion, nodal status and tumour size. On Kaplan–Meier analysis, the 5 year overall survival was 72%. The median time to death for those who died was 3.55 years with 92% of deaths within 5 years. Seventy-four per cent of patients had distant metastasis as a first recurrence and isolated local recurrences occurred in only 4.5%. Metastatic disease occurred in lung (55.9%) and was in multiple sites in 51%.Conclusion
We report a large population-based series of TBNC without distant metastatic disease at diagnosis highlighting the unique behavioural characteristics of TNBC. Traditional therapies are positively associated with survival outcomes, and yet, particularly in the setting of recurrent disease, prognosis remains poor. Increased research into more effective systemic agents and the most effective timing of delivery of these may result in improved outcomes. 相似文献18.

Aims
To examine the influence of pre-existing psychiatric disorder on the choice of treatment in patients with gynaecological cancer.Materials and methods
The analyses were based on all patients who underwent surgical treatment for endometrial, ovarian or cervical cancer who were registered in the Danish Gynecological Cancer Database in the years 2007–2014 (3059 patients with ovarian cancer, 5100 patients with endometrial cancer and 1150 with cervical cancer). Logistic regression model and Cox regression model, adjusted for relevant confounders, were used to estimate the effect of pre-existing psychiatric disorder on the course of cancer treatment. Our outcomes were (i) presurgical oncological treatment, (ii) macroradical surgery for patients with ovarian cancer, (iii) radiation/chemotherapy within 30 days and 100 days after surgery and (iv) time from surgery to first oncological treatment.Results
In the group of patients with ovarian cancer, more patients with a psychiatric disorder received macroradical surgery versus patients without a psychiatric disorder, corresponding to an adjusted odds ratio of 1.24 (95% confidence interval 0.62–2.41) and the chance for having oncological treatment within 100 days was odds ratio = 1.26 (95% confidence interval 0.77–2.10). As for patients with endometrial cancer, all outcome estimates were close to unity. The adjusted odds ratio for oncological treatment within 30 days after surgery in patients with cervical cancer with a history of psychiatric disorder was 0.20 (95% confidence interval 0.03–1.54).Conclusions
We did not find any significant differences in the treatment of ovarian and endometrial cancer in patients with pre-existing psychiatric diagnoses. When it comes to oncological treatment, we suggest that increased attention should be paid to patients with cervical cancer having a pre-existing psychiatric diagnosis. 相似文献19.

Background
Breast cancer is one of the most relevant malignancies among women. Molecular abnormalities in promotor region of survivin gene may account for overexpression of survivin and increased breast cancer risk. This study aimed to explore the potential association between survivin promotor gene -31G/C single nucleotide polymorphism (rs9904341) and its serum level alteration on one hand, and the risk of breast cancer in Egyptian patients on the other hand. It also aimed to assess the usefulness of survivin as an early noninvasive diagnostic biomarker and in breast cancer staging.Patients and Methods
A total of 135 patients with physically and pathologically confirmed breast cancer and 40 unrelated control subjects as well as 40 patients with benign breast mass were recruited from the early detection unit at National Cancer Institute, Cairo University. Genotyping was performed using allelic discrimination probes by real-time quantitative PCR and serum survivin by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results
The minor allele C of -31G/C survivin single nucleotide polymorphism was more frequent in breast cancer patients (19.3%) compared to the control group (7.5%). Furthermore, subjects with the GC + CC genotype were at increased risk of breast cancer compared to the GG genotype of the control group and also the benign group. Moreover, those patients exhibited higher serum levels of survivin compared to GG genotype. There was also significant elevation of serum survivin in different breast cancer stages.Conclusion
Genetic variation in -31G/C of the survivin gene may contribute to the disposition of breast cancer in the Egyptian population. Serum survivin alteration played a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of breast cancer. 相似文献20.
