A high level of chromosomal aberrations in peripheral blood lymphocytes may be an early marker cancer risk, but data on risk specific cancers and types (chromosome type chromatid type) are limited. total 6,430 healthy individuals from nine laboratories Croatia, Hungary, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, included aberration surveys performed during 1978-2002, were followed up for incidence or mortality average 8.5 years; 200 cases observed. Compared with that the low-tertile aberrations, relative...
Breast cancer survival is reportedly higher in the US than Europe. The first worldwide study (CONCORD) found wide international differences age-standardized survival. aim of this to explain these differences. Population-based data on stage at diagnosis, diagnostic procedures, treatment and follow-up were collected for about 20,000 women diagnosed with breast aged 15-99 years during 1996-98 7 states 12 European countries. Age-standardized net excess hazard death up 5 after diagnosis estimated...
We report results from a case-control study on stomach cancer conducted in 1980-81 Cracow, Poland, where the risk of this disease is among highest reported world-wide. One hundred and ten cases surgical clinic were matched by age sex to same number controls hospital. A series population-based health survey was also considered. After adjusting for residency, smoking various food items, hospital showed significant differences consumption fruits (RR rarely vs. daily: 3.24; 95% CI: 1.56-6.77),...
To assess the extent to which stage at diagnosis and adherence treatment guidelines may explain persistent differences in colorectal cancer survival between USA Europe.
Objective. To identify disparities in the management of colon and rectal cancer across Europe by assessing population-based information from 12 European registries (CR) participating EUROCARE, together with additional obtained individual clinical records. Methods patients. We considered five indicators: (a) resection curative intent; (b) post-operative mortality; (c) proportion stage II/III cases given adjuvant chemotherapy; (d) receiving radiotherapy; (e) intent resections or more lymph...
The purpose of our study was to establish the frequency and distribution four most common BRCA1 mutations in Polish general population a series breast cancer patients. Analysis 5382insC (c.5266dupC), 300T >G (p.181T >G), 185delAG (c.68_69delAG) 3819del5 (c.3700_3704del5) gene were performed on group respectively 16,849, 13,462, 12,485 3923 anonymous samples collected at birth seven provinces. patient consisted 1845 consecutive female cases. frequent mutation found 29 out 16,849 (0.17%). 11...
Polymorphisms in DNA repair genes may modulate not only an individual capacity, damage levels and cancer risk but also clinical outcome after damage-inducing anticancer therapy. In this study, we analyzed the association between XPA -4G>A, XPD Asp312Asn, hOGG1 Ser326Cys, XRCC1 Arg399Gln, XRCC2 -4234G>C, XRCC3 -4541A>G Thr241Met polymorphisms prognosis 250 inoperable non-small cell lung (NSCLC) patients treated with radiotherapy platinum-based chemotherapy. univariate model, XPA-4A 399Gln...
It is estimated that about 5-10% of ovarian and 2-5% all breast cancer patients are carriers a germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation. Most families with detected mutation qualified for molecular testing on the basis family history cancers. The purpose our study was to establish frequency positive in series Polish consecutive two groups, without mutations. We analysed prevalence four most common mutations: 5382insC (c.5266dupC), 300T>G (p.181T>G), 185delAG (c.68_69delAG) 3819del5...
Purpose Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is the most common hematologic malignant neoplasm in adults. Monitoring differential changes population-based survival across Europe and United States (US) could point to progress attained impact of application novel treatments. Patients Methods We examined trends age-specific 5-year relative among patients with NHL age 15 years or older between 1990 1994 2000 2004, on basis follow-up data from 12 cancer registries Europe, using period analysis techniques...
There is wide variation in prostate cancer incidence and survival across Europe. In many countries rising sharply relation to the introduction of prostate-specific antigen assay, there concern that patients may not be treated appropriately. We therefore aimed characterize treatment for Europe.We performed a high resolution population-based study, collecting information on 3 486 cases diagnosed 1995-1999 11 registries from six European countries.Overall, about one three received radical...
The relationship of lung cancer risk to cigarette smoking, occupational exposure, air pollution at permanent residence and usual frequency consumption fruits vegetables was analysed in a case-control study Cracow, Poland. cases were 176 male patients diagnosed 1992–1994 with histological confirmation the diagnosis, obtained from population-based Cracow Cancer Registry, 341 controls randomly selected general population. Classification exposure outside based on measured level total suspended...
