Combination chemotherapy with anticancer agents and OK-432
No full textAntitumor effects of the combination chemotherapy with hemolytic streptococcus preparation, OK-432, and various anticancer agents were observed on experimental tumors and human cancers. Experimental studies revealed that combined use of OK-432 with Mitomycin C, Nitrogen mustard N-Oxide or Bleomycin was remarkably effective on rodent transplantable tumors such as Ehrlich carcinoma, sarcoma-lOO and rat ascitic hepatoma AH-66. As for the mode of action of OK-432, besides a direct action on cancer cells, a host-mediated action appears to be also involved. Clinical trials were made on 14 cases with various advanced cancers, and favorable response was obtained in 5 with lung cancer. Fever was the major side effect of OK-432 and there was no evidence of bone marrow suppression.</p

Partial regularity for non-autonomous degenerate quasi-convex functionals with general growth
Get PDFWe study partial C^{1,alpha}-regularity of minimizers of quasi--convex variational integrals with non--standard growth. We assume in particular that the relevant integrands satisfy an Orlicz's type growth condition, i.e. a so--called general growth condition. Moreover, the functionals are supposed to be non--autonomous and possibly degenerate

Psychiatric comorbidities among patients with esophageal cancer in South Korea: a nationwide population-based, longitudinal study
Get PDFBACKGROUND: This longitudinal study aimed to analyze the prevalence of psychological distress in esophageal cancer survivors, using claims data in South Korea.
METHODS: From January 2010 to December 2014, we identified the four most frequent psychological distress in a nationwide cohort of 8,879 patients diagnosed with esophageal cancer. We analyzed the prevalence and the pattern of psychological distress before and after the initial treatment.
RESULTS: Among esophageal cancer patients, 669 patients (7.5%) were diagnosed with a psychological distress between 1 year prior to initial treatment and the time of last follow-up. Among them, depression and anxiety had a similar frequency of 237 (35.4%). The overall frequency of psychological distress peaked within 2 months after the initial treatment. Stress reaction/adjustment disorders showed the highest increase rate after treatment. The rate of patients who had psychological distress was higher among those who underwent surgery as their initial treatment than in those who received radiotherapy [odds ratio (OR): 1.39, P<0.001]. Further, female patients were more likely to be diagnosed with psychological distress compared with male patients (OR: 1.30, P<0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: Psychological distress in esophageal cancer survivors showed different patterns of prevalence depending on the nature of disease, sex, and initial treatment. Considering individual factors, timely diagnosis and intervention for psychological distress could improve the quality of life for esophageal cancer survivors

Eén spoed-OK is géén spoed-OK
Get PDF• Kwaliteit van zorg, kwaliteit van arbeid en kostenefficiëntie zijn belangrijke prestatiecriteriavoor een OK-faciliteit. De besturing van een OK ten aanzien van het plannen van spoedoperaties hangt nauw samen met deze drie prestatiecriteria via de wachttijd van spoedpatiënten, uitloop van OK-programma’s en kostenefficiëntie van de OK.• In dit artikel vergelijken we drie concepten ten aanzien van het omgaan met spoedoperaties, met name het reserveren van OK-capaciteit ten behoeve van spoed.• We tonen aan dat reserveren van capaciteit voor spoedoperaties op OK’s waar tevens electieve operaties worden uitgevoerd een positief effect heeft op de drie prestatiecriteria van een OK
