Adiponectin is secreted from adipose tissue and characterized by hyperinsulinemia, which related with obesity. levels are significantly lower in gastric cancer patients than healthy controls. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between adiponectin serum, tumor normal some other insulin resistance parameters.A total 35 who had undergone curative gastrectomy standard lymph node dissection were enrolled study. Their serum levels, breast compared.The mean tissue, 48.6±2.9...

This study aimed to evaluate the potential efficacy of 68Ga-fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPi) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for detecting, staging, and restaging digestive system malignancies that are 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) negative or show equivocal 18F-FDG uptake. We conducted a prospective analysis 30 patients with pathologically confirmed primary tumors metastases system. Participants underwent 68Ga-FAPi PET/CT imaging staging purposes...

Background: Breast cancer is the most common in women. Primary treatment surgery, with breast conserving surgery (BCS) being widely used for early-stage disease. Due to changes body image, depressive symptoms can occur after surgery. Here, we evaluate factors that affect patients' decision on and investigate differences level of depression mastectomy or BCS a population Turkish patients. Patients Methods: One hundred patients who had undergone were followed up at our institution between 2007...

Objectives: Multifocal/multicentric breast cancers have been comprehensively studied and their outcomes compared with unifocal tumors. We evaluated the impact of multifocality multicentricity on disease-free survival (DFS) overall cancer patients tried to analyze correlation between multifocality/multicentricity (M/M) other prognostic factors. Material Methods: Between 1994 2009, we analyzed retrospectively 697 patients. Multicentric multifocal were defined as presence 2 or more invasive...

We aimed to identify the predictive factors for perceived family social support among cancer patients and caregiver burden of their caregivers.Participants were 302 caregivers. Family scale was used patients, interview caregivers.All subjects also completed Beck depression invantery. The related socio-demographical with (PSS) evaluated by correlation analysis. To find independent predicting PSS, logistic regression analysis conducted.Depression scores higher than caregivers (12.5 vs. 8). PSS...

Lymph node involvement is an important prognostic factor in patients with gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the significance metastatic lymph ratio (MLNR) and compare it number metastasis pN3 cancer.We retrospectively analyzed 207 cancer who had undergone radical gastrectomy. Prognostic factors MLNR were evaluated by univariate multivariate analysis.An 0.75 found be best cut-off value prognosis (p = 0.001). significantly higher large-sized undifferentiated tumors,...

Background: Although a number of studies have investigated whether tumor diameter is prognostic factor in gastric cancer, no consensus was reached on its clinical importance. In this study, we aimed to determine the effect size survival patients with pT3 cancer. Patients and Methods: A total 232 who underwent curative gastrectomy D2 lymph node dissection, were retrospectively analyzed. Receiver operating characteristics analysis showed that cutoff value for 8 cm. On basis point, divided into...
