The level of copy number alteration (CNA), termed CNA burden, in the tumor genome is associated with recurrence primary prostate cancer. Whether burden cancer survival or outcomes other cancers unknown. We analyzed landscape conservatively treated a biopsy and transurethral resection cohort, reflecting an increasingly common treatment approach. find that prognostic for cancer-specific death, independent standard clinical prognosticators. More broadly, we significantly disease-free overall...
Collaboration between geriatricians and surgeons in the perioperative treatment of older patients has been associated with improved outcomes several nononcologic specialties. Similar associations may be possible among cancer.To investigate geriatric comanagement care for undergoing cancer-related surgical 90-day postoperative mortality, rate adverse events, use inpatient supportive services.This retrospective cohort study assessed who received comanaged vs those did not using multivariable...
<h3>Importance</h3> Frailty based on the modified Index is associated with poor postoperative outcomes. However, index requires high levels of personnel time and effort often has missing data. <h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate association Memorial Sloan Kettering–Frailty (MSK-FI) established geriatric assessment (GA) surgical <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This cohort study included prospectively evaluated patients cancer 75 years older who were referred to MSK Geriatrics Service...
Improved cancer control with increasing surgical experience (the learning curve) has been demonstrated for open and laparoscopic prostatectomy. We assessed the relationship between oncologic outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.We analyzed records 1,827 patients in whom prostate was treated Surgical coded as total number robotic prostatectomies performed by surgeon before patient operation. evaluated prior to probability positive margins biochemical recurrence regression models...
Background: The American College of Surgeons and Geriatrics Society recommend performing a geriatric assessment (GA) in the preoperative evaluation older patients. To address this, we developed an electronic GA, Electronic Rapid Fitness Assessment (eRFA). We reviewed feasibility clinical utility eRFA Methods: performed retrospective review our experience using rate time to completion were recorded. first 50 patients who completed asked additional questions assess their satisfaction....
<h3>Importance</h3> Increasingly complex surgical procedures are being performed in the outpatient setting, increasing burden on patients and caregivers to manage their postoperative symptoms. Electronic patient-reported symptom tracking may reduce this help distinguish between expected symptoms those requiring intervention. <h3>Objective</h3> To determine whether electronic reporting with clinical alerts for 10 days after ambulatory cancer surgery is associated a reduction potentially...
PURPOSE Cancer-related financial toxicity occurs frequently and is a key driver of inequities in access to care disparities treatment outcomes. Current practices screen for are inconsistent because the lack validated clinically integrated screening tool. This analysis aimed create assess an abbreviated version Comprehensive Score Financial Toxicity (COST) tool, measure used research purposes, which could easily be added into often-lengthy clinical workflows. METHODS At urban comprehensive...
ISUP Grade-Group (GG) is based on the relative proportion of Gleason patterns 3 and 4. We investigated whether absolute pattern 4 volume more strongly associated with advanced stage biochemical recurrence than GG in patients but not 5. Overall, 1171 men received radical prostatectomy. Advanced definitions were extra-prostatic extension (EPE) or seminal vesicle invasion (SVI) nodal (LNI), SVI LNI. explored association between percentage, using logistic Cox regressions. examined incorporating...
Abstract Background Frailty assessment is an important marker of the older adult's fitness for cancer treatment independent age. Pretreatment geriatric (GA) associated with improved mortality and morbidity outcomes but must occur in a time sensitive manner to be useful decision making. Unfortunately, time, resources other constraints make GA difficult perform busy oncology clinics. We developed Cancer Aging Interdisciplinary Team (CAIT) clinic model provide timely recommendations patient's...
