To assess the role of atrial fibrillation on perioperative outcomes in patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD).

We investigated patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing OPD during 2012-2014 within National Inpatient Sample database. The study population was divided into two groups based on the presence of atrial fibrillation. In-hospital mortality, length of stay, cost of hospitalization, and in-hospital complications were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression models and linear regression were used to adjust for potential confounders. Propensity score matching was also utilized.

Of the 12,785 patients aged ≥18 years undergoing OPD during years 2012-2014, 11,469 (90%) had no atrial fibrillation and 1,316 (10%) had atrial fibrillation. Patients with atrial fibrillation were found to have significantly higher cost, but similar mortality and LOS compared to those without atrial fibrillation. The risk of gastrointestinal anastomotic leakage, cardiac comper patients undergoing OPD, as well as increased occurrence of cardiac complications, respiratory complications, pulmonary embolism, and perioperative shock. Surgeons should pay special attention to patients with atrial fibrillation, and consider working together with cardiologists and anesthesiologists to jointly develop a management plan.

KIF23 is a member of kinesin family, recent researches indicate KIF23 plays an important role in the proliferation and migration of malignant cancer cells. While the function and specific molecule mechanism of KIF23 in triple negative breast cancer remains unclear.

QRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry were conducted to analyze expression of KIF23 in triple negative breast cancer tissues and paired paracancer tissues. CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, wound healing assay and transwell assay were applied for exploring phenotype changing of triple negative breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 and BT549 after siRNA-induced knockdown of KIF23. Several bioinformatic databases were used for predicting miRNAs that combing with KIF23 mRNA and verified by dual luciferase reporter assay. Western blot assay was performed to explore downstream signaling pathway of KIF23.

KIF23 was overexpressed in triple negative breast cancer, knockdown of KIF23 by siRNA inhibited proliferation and migration of TNBC cell lines MDA-MB-231 and BT549. Mechanistically, knockdown of KIF23 resulted in the suppression of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition. Meanwhile, miR-195-5p was downregulated in TNBC, and dual luciferase reporter assay indicated miR-195-5p could combine with 3'UTR of KIF23 thus promoting degradation of KIF23.

KIF23 is a potential oncogene in triple negative breast cancer, miR-195-5p could combine with 3'UTR of KIF23. Our study reveals a new sight into triple negative breast cancer.

Despite that breast conservative therapy became the standard of care in breast cancer, modified radical mastectomy, a large mutilating surgery, is still required for an important number of patients. In order to improve the quality of life and the psychological aspects of a surgery involving the femininity of woman, we developed a new less invasive procedure called infra-radical mastectomy. It aims to save the neckline of patients by the maintenance of the peripheral skin-fatty flap that constitutes the base for implantation of the breast. This phase I study analyzed the feasibility of this procedure using outcome of anatomo-pathological analyses as primary endpoint.

Between March 2015 and July 2017, all women with operable breast cancer without signs of lymph node invasion were invited to participate in the study in the 2 participating institutions. After a water-assisted dissection of the peri-glandular space, an enucleation of the breast was performed by a cold knife which represents the infra-radical m be excluded of this infra-radical approach. Additional work is needed to evaluate cosmetic outcome and impact on quality of life, the need of radiotherapy and the oncological long-term outcome.

The evaluation of biopsies from peri-glandular tissue suggests that infra-radical mastectomy should be further evaluated except for patients diagnosed with extensive DCIS which must be excluded of this infra-radical approach. Additional work is needed to evaluate cosmetic outcome and impact on quality of life, the need of radiotherapy and the oncological long-term outcome.

Breast asymmetry can result from congenital or traumatic aetiologies. Breast implants, autologous fat grafting, or a combination of both of these techniques are commonly used to achieve symmetry. This study adds critical evaluation of long-term patient outcomes in a large study group, to evaluate pearls and pitfalls of these treatment modalities.

A prospectively maintained database of a single surgeon experience in breast asymmetry treatment over a 13-year period (2006-2018) was retrospectively analysed. Breast implant surgery and fat grafting to treat asymmetry were compared in terms of number of operations to achieve symmetry, complications, and overall patient satisfaction.

Thirty-five patients underwent breast implant surgery, requiring an average 2.1±1.6 operations to achieve symmetry, with a major complication rate (requiring secondary procedures) of 26% (n=9). Again, 26% (n=9) were converted to lipofilling due to either implant removal or unsatisfactory results. Thirty (86%) patients underwent fa initial symmetry, ultimately offers a more durable result and is associated with significantly fewer and more minor complications, while not increasing the total number of procedures required to achieve symmetry in the long term.

Whether to use surgical drains after abdominal surgery or not has received much attention since a hundred years ago. Nowadays, lateral transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LTLA) is a widely used technique to treat adrenal tumors worldwide. selleck compound However, the placement of drains after LTLA remains controversial.

Data of 150 patients, who underwent LTLA between October 2014 and September 2020 by the same lead surgeon, were collected, including demographic, pathology, preoperative, operative variables and postoperative complications. The patients were divided into two groups, with and without drainage. The postoperative recovery of the two groups was compared.

Among 150 patients (65 men and 85 women, median age 48 years, median BMI 23.53), 89 patients had no drainage and 61 patients had drainage after surgery. Variables of the two groups were analyzed. Placement of drains correlated with long operative time (P<0.01). Patients with drain had longer hospital stays (P<0.001) and a higher incidence of postoperative complications (P=0.022). Other factors, including tumor size (P=0.61), tumor location (P=0.387), ASA score (P=0.687), pathology (P=0.55), VAS pain score (P=0.41), intraoperative blood loss (P=0.11), were not found to be significantly associated with drain placement. There was no conversion to open surgery in both groups. Moreover, no mortality was observed in either group.

This study revealed that it is feasible and safe not to leave a drain in selective and uncomplicated patients and that surgical drainage should not be routine after LTLA.

The expression and function of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) LOC100505851 in breast cancer are still unknown. We aimed to examine the expression of lncRNA LOC100505851 in breast cancer and adjacent tissues and preliminarily explore its predictive value and function in breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy (NAT).

The expression of lncRNA LOC100505851 was tested by qRT-PCR. The correlation between LOC100505851 expression and clinicopathological factors as well as pathological complete response (pCR) was analyzed by chi-squared test and logistic regression, respectively. The online database Kaplan-Meier plotter (KM plotter) was used to compare relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) between groups with different LOC100505851 expression levels. Subcellular localization of LOC100505851 was determined by nuclear and cytoplasmic extraction. A bioinformatics tool was used to predict RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and interaction among these proteins.

LncRNA LOC100505851 was significantlyon was related to a higher pCR rate and better RFS and OS, indicating its potential value as a novel predictive and prognostic biomarker in breast cancer.

Molecular subtype, the basis for personalized treatment of breast cancer, is of great value in evaluating prognosis and guiding treatment of early-stage breast cancer. However, its value in stage IV patients remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the association between molecular subtype and prognosis of

stage IV breast cancer using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database with the purpose to provide evidence for optimal therapeutic options for breast cancer patients.

We retrospectively analyzed

stage IV breast cancer patients with the SEER Program data from 2010 to 2015. Characteristics of patients with different molecular subtypes were compared by chi-square test and survival curves for breast cancer specific survival (BCSS) according to subtypes were plotted by Kaplan-Meier method. The Cox proportional hazards model was performed to search for independent prognostic factors in stage IV breast cancer patients.

A total of 11,974 patients were included in this study, amsis of patients with different single organ metastases was the same, but in patients with brain metastases, HR

/HER2

ones did not have a significantly better prognosis than other subtypes except triple-negative type.

Molecular subtypes were closely associated with the prognosis of de novo stage IV breast cancer. Among the four subtypes, HR+/HER2+ patients had the best prognosis while HR-/HER2- patients had the worst. The prognosis of patients with different single organ metastases was the same, but in patients with brain metastases, HR+/HER2+ ones did not have a significantly better prognosis than other subtypes except triple-negative type.

In recent years, it has been found that the expression of 17 centromere proteins (CENPs) was closely related to malignant tumors, however, the role of CENPs in breast cancer (BC) has not been fully investigated. This study intends to investigate the prognostic value of CENPs in BC and establish nomogram based on expression of CENPs to predict BC patients' prognosis.

A total of 800 BC patients with complete relevant data were included from the TCGA database and were further randomly divided into training set (N=480) and validation set (N=320). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to screen independent factors for overall survival (OS) prediction of BC patients in the training set. Then, the nomogram was established based on these independent predictors and further validated by receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves and calibration plots. The GEPIA and bcGenExMiner v4.4 databases were utilized to analyze mRNA expression of candidate gene in BC patients with different clinicopathological features, respectively.
