RESUMO

This study aimed to investigate if glycated hemoglobin (HgbA1C) as compared to fasting blood glucose is better for reflecting cardiometabolic risk in non-diabetic Korean women. Fasting glucose, HgbA1C and lipid profiles were measured in non-diabetic women without disease (n = 91). The relationships of fasting glucose or HgbA1C with anthropometric parameters, lipid profiles, and liver and kidney functions were analyzed. Both fasting glucose and HgbA1C were negatively correlated with HDL-cholesterol (r = -0.287, p = 0.006; r = -0.261, p = 0.012), and positively correlated with age (r = 0.202, p = 0.008; r = 0.221, p = 0.035), waist circumference (r = 0.296, p = 0.005; r = 0.304, p = 0.004), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (r = 0.206, p = 0.050; r = 0.225, p = 0.032), aspartate transaminase (AST) (r = 0.237, p = 0.024; r = 0.368, p < 0.0001), alanine transaminase (ALT) (r = 0.296, p = 0.004; r = 0.356, p = 0.001), lipid profiles including triglyceride (r = 0.372, p < 0.001; r = 0.208, p = 0.008), LDL-cholesterol (r = 0.315, p = 0.002; r = 0.373, p < 0.0001) and total cholesterol (r = 0.310, p = 0.003; r = 0.284, p = 0.006). When adjusted for age and body mass index, significant relationships of DBP (r = 0.190, p = 0.049), AST (r = 0.262, p = 0.018), ALT (r = 0.277, p = 0.012), and HDL-cholesterol (r = -0.202, p = 0.049) with HgbA1C were still retained, but those with fasting glucose disappeared. In addition, the adjusted relationships of LDL-cholesterol and total cholesterol with HgbA1C were much greater than those with fasting glucose. These results suggest that glycated hemoglobin may be a better predictor than fasting glucose for cardiometabolic risk in non-diabetic Korean women.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The axillary reverse mapping (ARM) technique to identify and preserve arm nodes during sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) or axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) was developed to prevent lymphedema. The purpose of this study was to investigate the location and metastatic rate of the arm node, and to evaluate the short term incidence of lymphedema after arm node preserving surgery. METHODS: From January 2009 to October 2010, 97 breast cancer patients who underwent ARM were included. Blue-dye (2.5 mL) was injected into the ipsilateral upper-inner arm. At least 20 minutes after injection, SLNB or ALND was performed and blue-stained arm nodes and/or lymphatics were identified. Patients were divided into two groups, an arm node preserved group (70 patients had ALND, 10 patients had SLNB) and an unpreserved group (13 patients had ALND, 4 patients had SLNB). The difference in arm circumference between preoperative and postoperative time points was checked in both groups. RESULTS: The mean number of identified blue stained arm nodes was 1.4+/-0.6. In the majority of patients (92%), arm nodes were located between the lower level of the axillary vein and just below the second intercostobrachial nerve. In the arm node unpreserved group, 2 patients had metastasis in their arm node. Among ALND patients, in the arm node preserved group, the difference in arm circumference between preoperative and postoperative time points in ipsilateral and contralateral arms was 0.27 cm and 0.07 cm, respectively, whereas it was 0.47 cm and -0.03 cm in the unpreserved group; one case of lymphedema was found after 6 months. No difference was found between arm node preserved and unpreserved group among SLNB patients. CONCLUSION: Arm node preserving was possible in all breast cancer patients with identifiable arm nodes, during ALND or SLNB, except for those with high surgical N stage, and lymphedema did not develop in patients with arm node preserving surgery.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to evaluate the survival differences between curative stage IV and non-curative stage IV gastric cancers after gastrectomy. METHODS: Stage IV gastric cancer patients who received gastrectomy were selected from our surgical data-base from 1995 to 2004. These patients were separated into two groups according to the curability by surgery. We analyzed the survival differences between curative stage IV patients and non-curative stage IV patients. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. RESULTS: During a 10-year period, gastrectomy was performed in 2,214 patients. 224 patients were diagnosed as stage IV. 144 patients were male and 80 patients were female. 97 patients received total gastrectomy. 127 patients received subtotal gastrectomy. 173 patients were diagnosed with curative stage IV and 51 patients were non-curative stage IV. Overall 3-year and 5-year survival rates of stage IV gastric cancer patients in this study were 31.5% and 18.4%. 3-YSR of curative and non-curative stage IV were 36.0% and 16.7% respectively (P-value=0.0204). 5-YSR of curative and non-curative stage IV was 21.9% and 4.2% (P-value=0.0169). CONCLUSION: Significant survival differences were found between curative and non-curative stage IV. Although direct tumor extension or distant metastasis exists, gastrectomy with combined resection was important to improve prognosis if it is possible to resect. When it comes to the matter of survival rate, the subclassification of stage IV gastric cancer should be considered for further management.
