Elevated serum concentration of fibrinogen and decreased albumin have been reported to be markers elevated systemic inflammation. We attempted investigate the prognostic influence preoperative ratio (FAR) for breast cancer.Data from 793 consecutive primary cancer patients were retrospectively analyzed. Serum levels tested before curative surgery. Subjects grouped into two groups according cutoff value determined by performing receiver operating characteristic curve analysis: high FAR group...
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of intracerebroventricular administration endothelin (EDT), a novel potent vasoconstricting peptide, on blood pressure in conscious rats. The lateral cerebral ventricle male Wistar rats cannulated, and femoral artery also cannulated measure mean arterial (MABP) heart rate (HR). EDT dissolved 10 microliters artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) (8.25-66 pmol icv) provoked dose-dependent increase MABP. increased HR, although 66 variable....
To analyze the treatment outcomes and effects of adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) in patients with synovial sarcoma (SS).The medical records 103 treated definitive surgery for SS, with/without RT, from August 1982 to July 2013 were reviewed retrospectively. The median age was 33 years (range, 5 72 y). most frequent tumor location extremities (79 patients, 77%). Seventy-five (73%) received RT 26 (25%) did not. dose 61.2 Gy 45 66.6 Gy).The follow-up period 5.4 0.2 31.0 5- 10-year overall survival...
In a recent meta-analysis, post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) reduced any first recurrence (AFR) and improved survival in N1 N2 patients. We investigated risk factors for AFR after optimal systemic therapy without PMRT, to define subgroup of patients who may benefit from PMRT.One thousand three hundred eighty-two pT1-2N1M0 breast cancer treated with mastectomy PMRT between 2005 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Only 0.6% had no therapy.After median follow-up 5.9 years, there 173 (53...
Abstract Lessons Learned Induction chemotherapy with Genexol-PM and cisplatin demonstrated modest tumor response in locally advanced head neck squamous cell carcinoma. Considering favorable toxicity profiles promising survival data, further studies on this regimen are warranted patients Background is a polymeric micellar formulation of paclitaxel without Cremophor EL. We investigated the efficacy safety plus as induction (IC) carcinoma (LA-HNSCC). Methods Patients received (230 mg/m2) (60...
The radioprotective effects of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) were further investigated with respect to the testicular system. Recombinant human GCSF (100 μg kg−1 body weight/day) was administrated male C3H/HeN mice by subcutaneous injection for three consecutive days before pelvic irradiation (5 Gy) and histopathological parameters assessed at 12 h 21 post-irradiation (pi). protected germ cells from radiation induced- apoptosis (P < 0.01 vs. irradiated group pi). remarkably...
The purpose of this study was to identify the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic value p53 overexpression in breast cancer patients treated with a modified radical mastectomy.The medical records 197 who had undergone mastectomy between January 1991 December 2008 were reviewed retrospectively. Breast subtype investigated using immunohistochemistry and/or fluorescent situ hybridization analysis surgical specimens.The median follow-up after 56.1 months (range, 14.7-232.7). age...

Hyperthermia is a potent radiosensitizer, and its effect varies according to the different types of cancer cells. In present study, radiosensitizing hyperthermia on lung cell lines A549 NCI-H1299 was determined based equivalent radiation dose escalation. vitro experiments were conducted using determine thermal radiosensitivity. vivo mouse heterotopic xenograft models treatment response increase in temperature tumors 13.56 MHz radiofrequency (RF) device.

Abstract Background The purpose of this retrospective study is to compare the treatment results locally advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma according modalities. Methods Seventy‐three patients with treated at Department Therapeutic Radiology, Seoul National University Hospital, between August 1979 and July 1997 were retrospectively analyzed. Twenty‐three radiotherapy (RT) alone, 18 surgery postoperative RT, 32 neoadjuvant chemotherapy (CTx) RT. Median follow‐up period was 28 months. Results...
The early diagnosis of mycobacterial infections is a critical step for initiating treatment and curing the patient.To evaluate performance reverse blot hybridisation assay (REBA) Myco-ID rapid identification Mycobacterium species in acid-fast bacilli (AFB) smear-positive respiratory specimens.A total 148 AFB specimens were used using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) REBA, results compared with gold standard method as well culture, PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis (PRA)...
Quality of life (QoL) has become a major concern as the survival time breast cancer increases. We investigated changes in QoL through comprehensive categorical analysis, for first three years after treatment including radiotherapy. A total 1156 patients were enrolled from 17 institutions. All survivors grouped according to surveillance period 9–15 months (first year), 21–27 (second and 33–39 (third year) end The 5-dimensional questionnaire by EuroQol group (EQ-5D) EORTC Life Questionnaire;...
