Filter by:The Limbo study is a retrospective descriptive study which aims to establish the current state of breast reconstruction surgery at the Besançon University Hospital and Hôpital Nord Franche-Comté, between October 2017 and December 2021.
The goal of this prospective study is to develop MRI-based models representing tumor microenvironment in participants with invasive breast cancer. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the association of diffusion-, T2-, and dynamic contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images of 3T MRI before treatment with the immunohistochemical reactivity of tumor microenvironment including the extracellular matrix and immune cells of core-needle biopsy specimens For this purpose, investigators extract 16145 radiomic features from the intratumoral and peritumoral regions on MRI of participants with invasive breast cancer before treatment.
This trial studies how well an imaging technique called magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopic imaging works in identifying breast cancer in women with benign or suspicious areas in the breast. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic tool used to investigate the location of tumors in different organs. Since radiological pictures do not have sufficient information for tumor grades, invasive procedure such as biopsy is performed on patients with breast cancers for diagnosis. Breast tissue contains water, fat, and chemicals known as metabolites. MR spectroscopic imaging may help to characterize the various breast metabolite steady state levels and identify the differences between necrosis and tumor recurrence, which is difficult using radiological procedures such as MRI.
The purpose is to evaluate implementation of a community-based prevention project aimed at increasing early detection and prevention of breast and cervical cancer through education and navigation and to increase breast and cervical cancer screening and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination in underserved Latinas.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, rehabilitation services for all patients were affected, and a term that was previously in use but gained popularity during the pandemic entered our vocabulary: 'Telerehabilitation'. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the treatment process and adherence of patients undergoing telerehabilitation.
This study will be conducted to compare the effects of hand and foot exercises on peripheral neuropathy and quality of life in breast cancer patients taking taxanes
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of end-of-life conversation game "Hello" as a tool to help individuals with breast, lung, and/or genito-urinary cancers treated at Penn State Cancer Institute and their loved ones perform advance care planning. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What modifications and/or adaptations are necessary to Hello for use in cancer populations? - How do different delivery models compare for recruitment in terms of feasibility and efficiency? Participants will: - Complete pre-game questionnaires - Play the Hello game - Complete post-game questionnaires - Participate in a focus group
Breast cancer is a significant issue in Egypt, affecting a large number of women and impacting their psychological well-being. Younger patients and those undergoing adjuvant therapy or radiotherapy are particularly susceptible to psychological distress. Psychological counseling and support groups can help improve patients' quality of life and social functioning. Hope plays a crucial role in the treatment process, as it is associated with positive outcomes and serves as a protective mechanism against stress and disease. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an intervention that can reduce stress and depression in cancer patients. It involves cultivating awareness of the present moment and has positive effects on quality of life. Investigating the impact of MBSR on psychological distress and hope in women undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer is important for providing effective support during treatment. The aim of this study is to: Examine the effect of the Mindfulness-Based Stress reduction intervention on psychological distress and hope among female patients undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer. RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS Female patients undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer who attend Mindfulness-Based Stress reduction intervention sessions exhibit higher levels of hope and lower levels of psychological distress compared to those who receive conventional hospital treatment.
This prospective, observational study will evaluate the patient-based sentinel lymph node detection rate when using the Infracyanine® (indocyanine green) dye technique in patients undergoing surgery for breast cancer. The study will describe the demographic, clinical, and tumour characteristics of patients with breast cancer undergoing surgery. The study will describe the characteristics of how the indocyanine green dye technique is used including the dose and volume of dye used, the number and type of injection sites used to give the dye, the equipment used to detect the dye and locate the sentinel lymph node, and whether indocyanine green is used on its own or with other dyes (blue dye and/or 99mTechnetium dye). The study will evaluate the characteristics of sentinel lymph node biopsy procedures performed using indocyanine green dye including the number of biopsies performed, the time taken to detect the sentinel lymph node and perform the biopsy, and how many sentinel lymph nodes are detected using indocyanine green dye, blue dye, and 99mTechnetium dye. The study will also assess the safety of using indocyanine green dye for 6 weeks following surgery.
Objective: In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of health education provided by two different methods on breast cancer and mammography knowledge self-evaluation status, perceived mammography benefit and barrier levels, mammography self-efficacy levels and mammography screening of women aged 40-69 years. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in a parallel group design as a single-blind randomized controlled trial. The sample consisted of 126 healthy volunteers, 42 in each group, who were registered to Toprakkale Family Health Center between January and July 2023, met the inclusion criteria. In the study, 10-unit Visual Analogue Scale, mammography benefit and obstacle perception sub-dimension of Champion's Health Belief Model Scale and Mammography Self-Efficacy Scale were used for self-assessment of breast cancer and mammography knowledge. In the study, while the control group received standard care, the face-to-face education group was given health education and brochures through home visits, and a reminder interview was made over the phone. Health education and digital brochures were given to the online training group via video call, and a reminder meeting was held once. After a two-month follow-up, One-Way Analysis of Variance and Kruskal Wallis H test were used to compare the data of the three groups, multiple comparisons were analyzed with Tukey's test and Dunn's test. Generalized Linear Models were used for group and time comparisons.
