Filter by:Detect the contents of glucose metabolism molecules in the tumor and adjacent normal samples of about 100 patients with lung adenocarcinoma using mass spectroscopy. Analyze the correlation between the contents and the clinicopathological characteristics and survival.
Elderly cancer patients are a special group, often complicated by a variety of chronic diseases, which bring serious obstacles to surgery and adjuvant treatment. It is for these reasons that most patients with high-level evidence-based randomized controlled clinical trials will be part of these patients. Exclusions ultimately lead to a lack of standards for the treatment of elderly breast cancer patients, especially the chemotherapy. Investigators' purpose was to determine whether geriatric assessments are associated with completion of a chemotherapy course, grade III/IV toxicity or survival in older adults with breast cancer in older patients. Investigators want to prospectively enroll breast cancer patients with age ≥70 years. By recording the pre-treatment baseline laboratory tests and geriatric assessments, through questionnaires, including Karnofsky performance status(KPS), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG), Mini Nutritional Assessment(MNA), Activity of daily living(ADL), Instrumental activities of daily living(IADL), Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE), Geriatric Depression Scale(GDS), G-8, Vulnerable Elders Survey-13（VES-13） and FRAIL, Tilburg. Investigators want to learn the relationship between the geriatric assessments and chemotherapy toxicity, chemotherapy completion and overall survival. Establish a model for predicting chemotherapy side effects in old breast cancer patients.
Delirium is an acutely occurred and fluctuating cerebral dysfunction characterized with inattention, altered consciousness, cognitive decline and/or abnormal perception. It is common in the elderly after cardiac surgery and is associated with worse outcomes. Causes leading to delirium are multifactorial but sleep disturbances remains an important one. In previous studies, sedative-dose dexmedetomidine improves sleep quality in ICU patients with mechanical ventilation; and low-dose dexmedetomidine improves sleep quality in postoperative patients without mechanical ventilation. In recent studies of elderly after noncardiac surgery, night-time infusion of low-dose dexmedetomidine reduces delirium and improves 2-year survival. The investigators hypothesize that, for elderly patients after cardiac surgery, night-time infusion of dexmedetomidine may also improve sleep quality, reduce delirium development and improve 2-year survival.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of PG2 concurrent with concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT) for relieving fatigue among locally advanced esophageal cancer patients who are under preoperative chemoradiation therapy at curative setting. This study will be designed to compare the fatigue status between two study arms patients under CCRT. The secondary objective is to assess the efficacy of PG2 to improve the quality of life of patient during CCRT. Also, the investigators try to determine the effect of PG2 on tumor response post CCRT, disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients by comparing the above outcome between the two study arms. The mechanism of immunomodulatory of PG2 and tumor response, DFS and OS for patients with esophageal cancer treated with preoperative CCRT concurrent with or without PG2 will be investigated in add-on study.
The expression level of PD-L1 on tumor cells is a pivotal point which might have some influence on prognosis, especially for those who might use PD-1 or PD-L1 antibody for treatment. The aim of this study is to detect the expression of PD-1 on advaced osteosarcoma patient who might use these antibodies for treatment. All those specimen should be taken by pathologist and confirmed with high tumor cellularity.
A retrospective clinical study will be performed evaluating a large number of partial ceramic restorations (IPS e-Max press, Ivoclar, Liechtenstein) placed in general practice. Evaluation will be based on the well established Hickel criteria (Hickel et al, 2010). Rationale: IPS-e-max press has been made available to the market since 2006. Although millions of these restorations have been placed worldwide, clinical data are available of less than 200 single restorations only, covering observation periods of 2-8 years.(Guess et al, 2009; Etman en Woolford, 2010; Gehrt et al, 2012; Esquivel-Upshaw et al, 2012). Objective: Study the survival of lithium disilicate restorations during regular check-ups in a private dental practice.
Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) are insensitive in evaluating primary sarcoma originated from bone treated with chemotherapy or targeted therapy, which did not have the definition of measurement methods either. This study evaluates whether clinical imaging findings of sarcoma after preoperative chemotherapy correlate with tumor responses by pathological evaluation by Huvos classifications and develops reliable, quantitative, clinical response criteria.
To prospectively assess the mechanical ventilation management when its provided by Emergency Physicians in French Hospital, and to assess complications and outcome of these patients. The study could be measure the proportion of patients developing an Acute Respiratory Failure Distress after a take care of by French Emergency Departments.
