RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the factors for serious complications within 30 days after surgery in elderly patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC)who undertook primary debulking surgery(PDS).Methods:The clinical data of International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics(FIGO)stage ⅢC/Ⅳ EOC patients aged≥60 years who received PDS in gynecological department of National Cancer Center and National Center of Gerontology between January 2014 and December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.Clavien-Dindo scoring system was applied to grade the complications within 30 days after surgery.The serious early postoperative complications were those of grade Ⅲ or above occurred within 30 days after surgery.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent risk factors of serious complications within 30 days after surgery.Results:A total of 133 patients were included in this study and serious complications rated 11.3%(15/133). The mean age of patients in severe complication group was significantly higher than that in the control group[(69.80±6.56) vs.(65.87±5.14), t=2.699, P=0.008]. The proportion of patients with preoperative ECOG score≥2 was significantly higher in the severe complication group than that in the control group[26.7%(4/15) vs.5.9%(7/118), χ2=4.985, P=0.026], and the proportion of preoperative hypoalbuminemia(<35 g/L)was significantly higher in the severe complication group[20.0%(3/15) vs.3.4%(4/118), χ2=4.897, P=0.027]. However, there was no significant difference in intraoperative bleeding, R0 resection rate as well as surgical complexity( χ2=1.964, 0.330, 4.637, all P>0.05)between the two groups.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent factors for serious early postoperative complications were age≥70 years( OR=4.345, P=0.028), ECOG score≥2( OR=25.619, P=0.008)and preoperative albumin <35 g/L( OR=6.733, P=0.040). Conclusions:In the elderly ovarian cancer patients, individualized perioperative management should be strengthened for the patients with factors associated with serious early postoperative complications, in order to reduce severe complications and improve the prognosis.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To predict the targets and pathways in the therapeutic mechanism of Guizhi Gancao Decoction (GZGCD) against heart failure (HF) based on network pharmacology.@*METHODS@#The chemical components of GZGCD were analyzed using the databases including TCMSP, TCMID and TCM@Taiwan, and the potential targets of GZGCD were predicted using the SwissTargetPrediction database. The targets of HF were obtained using the databases including DisGeNET, Drugbank and TTD. The intersection targets of GZGCD and HF were identified using VENNY. Uniport database was used to convert the information, and the components-targets-disease network was constructed using Cytoscape software. The Bisogene plug-in, Merge plug-in, and CytoNCA plug-in in Cytoscape software were used for protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis to acquire the core targets. Metascape database was used for GO and KEGG analysis. The results of network pharmacology analysis were verified with Western blot analysis. Three factors (PKCα, ERK1/2 and BCL2) were screened according to the degree value of network pharmacology results and the degree of correlation with heart failure process. The pentobarbtal sodium was dissolvein H9C2 cells treated with serum-free high glucose medium to simulate the ischemic anoxic environment of heart failure. The total proteins of myocardial cells were extracted. The protein contents of PKCα, ERK1/2 and BCL2 were determined.@*RESULTS@#We identified a total of 190 intersection targets between GZGCD and HF using Venny database, involving mainly the circulatory system process, cellular response to nitrogen compounds, cation homeostasis, and regulation of the MAPK cascade. These potential targets were also involved in 38 pathways, including the regulatory pathways in cancer, calcium signal pathway, cGMP-PKG signal pathway, and cAMP signal pathway. Western blot analysis showed that in an in vitro H9C2 cell model of HF, treatment with GZGCD downregulated PKCα and ERK1/2 expressions and upregulated BCL2 expression.@*CONCLUSION@#The therapeutic mechanism of GZGCD for HF involves multiple targets including PRKCA, PRKCB, MAPK1, MAPK3, and MAPK8 and multiple pathways including the regulatory pathway in cancer and the calcium signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate risk factors for severe hematological toxicity of adjuvant chemotherapy and prognostic factors in elderly patients with ovarian cancer.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 117 ovarian cancer patients aged 60 years and older who underwent surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy between January 2006 to December 2016 at Beijing Hospital.Risk factors for grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ hematological toxicity were assessed by using multivariate logistic regression analysis.Prognostic factors influencing progression-free survival(PFS)were evaluated by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis.Results:The mean age of patients was(69.3±7.9)years.After surgery, 67.3% patients(70/104)had a satisfactory tumor reduction, and 83.5%(86/103)received a standard treatment.Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that risk factors for severe hematological toxicity included albumin level<40 g/L( OR=3.434, 95% CI: 1.074~10.968)and age>75( OR=3.676, 95% CI: 1.032~13.093). Progression-free survival for patients was 20.4 months(95% CI: 19.4~26.0). Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that FIGO(the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics)staging, pelvic lymphadenectomy, tumor burden, transfusion therapy and residual tumor size were risk factors influencing 3-year PFS.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that low tumor burden was the only independent risk factor for 3-year PFS( HR=2.067, 95% CI: 1.174~4.424, P=0.023). Conclusions:Age ≥75 and albumin levels have effects on the incidences of complications during adjuvant chemotherapy, which in turn affect whether patients can complete standard adjuvant therapy and the clinical outcome of patients with ovarian cancer after surgery.To maximize the efficacy of treatment and reduce the side effects of adjuvant therapy, individualized treatment plans should be formulated for elderly patients with poor prognostic factors.
RESUMEN
Objective@#To explore the effects and postoperative prognostic factors in cervical cancer patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with surgery and post-operative adjuvant therapy.@*Methods@#A total of 177 patients with cervical cancer at International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage Ⅰ b2, Ⅱ a2 who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by surgery with and without adjuvant therapy in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were included. Univariate and multivariate analyses of 5-year overall survival (OS) rate and 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate were performed.@*Results@#Of 177 patients, 133 (75.1%) had stage Ⅰb2 and 44 (24.9%) had Ⅱa2 cancers. After NACT, overall response rate was 63.3% (112/177) including 12 cases of complete response (CR), 100 of partial response (PR) and no progressive disease (PD) case. At a median follow-up of 59.2 months, the 5-year DFS rate was 73.6% and the 5-year OS rate was 86.8%. Univariate analysis revealed that lymph node metastasis, deep stromal invasion and tumor size after NACT significantly affected 5-year DFS rate (P<0.05). Lymph node metastasis, deep stromal invasion and tumor size after NACT significantly affected 5-year OS rate (P<0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that, stromal invasion (outer 1/3 or outer 1/2) was independent risk factor of 5-year DFS rate (P<0.05), and 5-year OS rate was significantly affected by tumor size >3 cm after NACT (P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#The effect of NACT in Ⅰ b2, Ⅱ a2 squamous carcinoma of the uterined cervix is confirmed. The independent risk factor for 5-year DFS rate in patients received NACT and hysterectomy is deep stromal invasion of the cervix. The presence of tumor size >3 cm after NACT adversely affect 5-year OS rate.
