Objectives/Hypothesis National Cancer Care Network guidelines suggest consideration of adjuvant radiation even for early stage adenoid cystic carcinoma the salivary glands. We used Data Base (NCDB) to analyze practice patterns and outcomes postoperative radiotherapy carcinomas. Study Design Retrospective NCDB review. Methods Patients with nonmetastatic parotid, submandibular, or another major gland from 2004 2012 were identified. Information was collected regarding receipt radiation. The...
Objective Using the National Cancer Database (NCDB), we investigated characteristics, outcomes, and benefits of adjuvant therapy for patients diagnosed with malignant salivary gland tumors between 2004 2012. Study Design Retrospective analysis. Setting NCDB. Subject Methods The cases a nonmetastatic major tumor who underwent resection 2012 were abstracted from Patients further included if they had pT1‐4NX‐1M0 high‐grade disease or pT3‐4NX‐0M0 pT1‐4N1M0 low‐grade disease. identified as having...
Abstract Background Small cohort studies have suggested oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) could be associated with worse prognosis in individuals younger than 40. Methods We compared the survival of all OTSCC cases National Cancer Database under 40 years old those older 40, excluding patients over 70. Cox regression and propensity score matched (PSM) analyses were performed. Results A total 22 930 identified. The group consisted 2566 (9.9%) cases; 20664 to 70 (90.1%). Most male (13...
The objective of this study was to analyze the impact on overall survival (OS) from addition postoperative radiation with or without chemotherapy after esophagectomy, using a large, hospital-based dataset.Previous retrospective studies have suggested an OS advantage for chemoradiation over surgery alone, although prospective data are lacking.The National Cancer Data Base queried select patients diagnosed stage pT3-4Nx-0M0 pT1-4N1-3M0 esophageal carcinoma (squamous cell adenocarcinoma) 1998...
Given the paucity of esophageal small cell carcinoma (SCC) cases, there are few large studies evaluating this disease. In study, National Cancer Data Base (NCDB) was utilized to analyze clinical features, treatment, and survival patients with SCC in a large, population-based dataset. We selected diagnosed from 1998 2011. Patients were identified as having no chemotherapy alone, radiation ± sequential chemotherapy, concurrent chemoradiation, esophagectomy and/or radiation. Overall (OS)...
Objective To investigate differences in epidemiology of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) with regards to human papillomavirus (HPV), race, and socioeconomic status (SES) using the National Cancer Database (NCDB). Study Design Population‐based cohort study. Setting Racial disparities survival OPSCC have been previously acknowledged. However, distribution HPV‐related cancers its influence on conjunction race SES remain unclear. Subjects Methods All patients NCDB known HPV from...
The study described in this article investigates the identification of phraseological neologisms German based on a combination methods and resources.Detecting is difficult task.In general, detecting phrasemes corpora hampered by their low number occurrences.Most contain written language; there are almost no big spoken suitable for phraseme detection.However, expected to first occur language before being encountered texts (Burger 2010).Based general definition neologisms, suggested.A...
Objectives To use the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Database to analyze impact of postoperative radiation after limb sparing surgery for high-grade extremity soft tissue sarcomas (STS). Methods We identified patients, aged 20 79, who were diagnosed between 1988 2006 with STS extremities underwent radical or without external beam radiation. Kaplan-Meier Cox regression analyses performed evaluate effect therapy on overall survival (OS) disease-specific (DSS). A total 983...
Objective: To utilize the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Database to analyze clinical features, treatment, survival outcomes of patients with small cell carcinoma bladder in a large population-based sample. Because its rarity, prior reports are primarily limited single-institution studies. Methods: We identified any age who were diagnosed between 1988 2007. Kaplan-Meier Cox regression analysis used compare overall (OS) urinary bladder-specific survival. Results: A total 663...
To use the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database in order to evaluate prostate biopsy concordance a large population-based sample.We identified 34 195 men who were diagnosed with cancer underwent radical prostatectomy from 2010 2011. All patients also had have both clinical pathological Gleason scores available for analysis. The of score was analysed using coefficient agreement (κ). Univariate multivariate logistic regression analyses performed determine potential factors that...
Background The purpose of this study was to assess treatment choices among men with prostate cancer who presented at University Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center multidisciplinary (MultiD) clinic compared nationwide trends. Methods In total, 4451 the MultiD from 2004 2016 were analyzed. To trends, authors analyzed 392,710 diagnosed between and 2015 Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) database. primary endpoint choice as a function pretreatment demographics. Univariate analyses...
The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database was analyzed to explore the pathologic extent of disease for clinically localized prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy as well use adjuvant radiation in this population.Identified were patients from 2004 2006 with staged T1c-2cNx-0M0 adenocarcinoma who underwent prostatectomy. All had complete clinical data. postoperative recorded. Logistic regression analysis performed identify unadjusted adjusted predictors extraprostatic or...
Despite previous retrospective reports that the number of lymph nodes resected at curative intent surgery for lung cancer correlates with overall survival (OS), no consensus exists regarding minimal nor optimal to resect surgery.We studied subjects in Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results Database (SEER) diagnosed non-small cell between 2000 2011 who underwent either lobectomy or pneumonectomy had pathologic negative nodal evaluation. We excluded patients sublobar resection and/or node...
<h3>Purpose</h3> The purpose of this study is to evaluate usage patterns and outcomes women who underwent open hysterectomy (OH) versus robotic assisted-hysterectomy (RAH) for the treatment endometrial cancer. <h3>Methods</h3> Women with nonmetastatic adenocarcinoma diagnosed between 2010 2012, either an OH or RAH, were selected from National Cancer Database. <i>χ<sup>2</sup></i>, Fisher exact, Mann-Whitney <i>U</i> tests used where appropriate compare groups.
