TITLE: [CIN and pregnancy, a 20-year retrospect]
PUBDATE: 19920301
This is a report on CIN associated with pregnancy in a review over the last 20 years. Biological tumour behaviour, diagnostic problems and therapy are discussed in 100 cases of preinvasive and invasive lesions of the cervix. It is pointed out that low acceptance of early detection measures in association with late pregnancy planning may contribute to an increase of invasive cancer in pregnancy.

TITLE: Preventing skin cancer through behavior change. Implications for interventions.
PUBDATE: 19950701
Sun exposure is the only major causative factor for skin cancer for which prevention is feasible. Both individual and community-based interventions have been effective in changing sun exposure knowledge and attitudes but generally have not been effective in changing behaviors. An integrative model of behavior change is described that has been successful in changing behavior across a wide range of health conditions. This model holds promise for developing a rational public health approach to skin cancer prevention based on sound behavioral science.

Several articles covering treatment of mammary carcinoma in situ and invading mammary cancer have been published recently. This article delivers a short description of the clinical picture and the treatment of a noninvasive tumor as well as of the mainly conservative primary treatment of invasive carcinoma in common use since 20 years. Systemic adjuvant treatment is discussed in the context of results from a meta-analysis publishes two years ago in 'Lancet'. Finally, various directives for the execution of an adjuvant treatment are given that are offered today outside of a study protocol.

PUBDATE: 19900801
2-Phenylindole derivative 8, linked to aziridine by a hexamethylene spacer group, was synthesized and tested. It binds to the estrogen receptor with an RBA-value of 4.0 (estradiol = 100). In vitro, it shows a selective cytostatic activity in hormone-dependent MCF-7 breast cancer cells (41% T/C at 10(-6) M). In vivo, it exerts a strong estrogenic effect. The binding to the estrogen receptor is largely reversible.

PUBDATE: 19900201
From 1980 to 1988 more than 1,549 organ donors were harvested, 125 of them (8%) died from cancer--116 brain tumors and 9 donors with extracerebral cancer. In 3 donors suffering from extracerebral cancer 5 kidneys were transplanted. All transplants functioned well without tumor signs up to 21 months after grafting. However, because of tumor recurrence in nearly 50% of the cases described in the literature generally organs from donors suffering from extracerebral cancer should not transplanted if possible.

This article provides an overview of the classification of thyroid carcinoma into well-differentiated forms (papillary and follicular) as well as the rare Hurthle cell, medullary, and anaplastic forms. The characteristics, relative frequency, and mortality rates of each form of thyroid cancer are summarized. The roles of history, physical examination, blood tests, such as thyroid function test, thyroglobulin (htg), calcitonin and CEA, radionuclide and ultrasound imaging, and fine-needle aspirates are outlined for the diagnosis and management of thyroid cancer. An algorithmic diagram of the monitoring procedures for long-term management of various forms of thyroid cancer is presented.

TITLE: Colon cancer screening. The dilemma of positive screening tests.
PUBDATE: 19900401
Despite doubts about the benefits of colon cancer screening, sigmoidoscopy and fecal occult blood tests are now often performed by clinicians who must then deal with positive test results. The purpose of this literature review is to examine potential strategies for dealing with positive screening test results. If positive results are obtained, current data support the use of colonoscopy as the single most effective diagnostic strategy. Exceptions include situations that reduce the predictive value of the screening test. Several important areas of controversy are highlighted that need to be assessed in subsequent studies.

TITLE: Forced expiratory volume (1 second) and lung cancer incidence and mortality.
PUBDATE: 19920501
We evaluated the relation between forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and lung cancer incidence and mortality among members of the Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program who took a multiphasic health checkup. FEV1 was inversely related to risk of lung cancer among former and current smokers, but not related among never-smokers. We observed a decreased risk of lung cancer mortality only in the higher quintiles of FEV1 in current smokers among men, but not in women. FEV1 appears to be associated with lung cancer as a physiologic marker for smoking-induced pulmonary damage.

TITLE: Colon cancer in the active duty population.
PUBDATE: 19900201
Of the 140,000 cases of colorectal cancer anticipated this year, approximately 2% to 6% will occur in patients less than 40 years old. Data regarding colon cancer in this age group applies directly to the similarly aged active duty population. The problem is illustrated by two case histories. A review of the literature indicates that patients of this age group may have a worse prognosis, not due to age per se, but likely due to a combination of an advanced stage at diagnosis and a higher percentage of poorly differentiated or mucin-producing tumors. Early diagnosis remains essential for improved survival.

The immune response against murine IgG2a immunoglobulin was studied in 42 gastrointestinal cancer patients treated with mouse monoclonal antibodies. IgM, IgA, and all 4 IgG subclasses directed against mouse immunoglobulin were studied. Thirty of 42 patients developed an anti-mouse response of IgG isotype, often associated with IgM and IgA specific for mouse monoclonal antibodies circulating in serum. Patients first developed an IgM response, followed by IgA and IgG. IgG1 was found to be the most frequently expressed isotype, followed by IgG2 and IgG3. IgG4 was detected in only 6 patients.

Several other newer therapeutic modalities are being investigated to determine their potential role in the treatment of prostate cancer. Cryotherapy, microwave hyperthermia, laser therapy, and high-intensity focused ultrasound have all been introduced in recent years. Each of these techniques is based on a different principle, yet they all attempt to kill prostate cancer cells in a minimally invasive manner. Insufficient follow-up data are available to allow strong recommendations regarding these treatments.

TITLE: An adaptive weighted log-rank test with application to cancer prevention and screening trials.
PUBDATE: 19910901
A class of adaptive weighted log-rank statistics is described where the vector of weights is chosen in a data-dependent way from a family of "smooth" weight vectors. A parametric family of weight vectors is identified which includes most shapes of weighting vectors that will be near optimal in many cancer prevention and screening trials. This family of weight vectors is used in an application of the proposed method to data from a breast cancer screening trial. Results from a small simulation study comparing the power of the adaptive statistic to that of the unweighted log-rank statistic are presented.

This paper discusses specific problems pertaining to compatibility of data between the Puerto Rico and New York State tumor registries, which is applicable to other studies comparing cancer incidence rates from two distinct tumor registries. Discrepancies in the data between the two tumor registries were due to differences in quality control, under and overreporting of cancer cases, reliability indicators, and case criteria. A study comparing stomach cancer incidence rates between Puerto Rico and Puerto Rican migrants to New York City provided the foundation for this investigation.

A case of spontaneous regression of pleural and intrapulmonary metastases from renal cell cancer is reported with more than 60 cases reported since the original review of this clinical phenomenon in 1964. The metastatic disease sites are most often pulmonary, but extrapulmonary sites include liver, bone, and CNS regressions. The role of nephrectomy in "spontaneous regression" continues to be obscure, accounting for < 50% of documented cases. Immunologic mechanisms, although intellectually attractive, have not been identified.

TITLE: The case for laparoscopic management of the adnexal mass.
PUBDATE: 19950601
Careful patient selection criteria can be used to identify patients who are appropriate for management of an adnexal masses via operative laparoscopy. Proper intraoperative assessment and liberal use of rapid frozen section are also important for optimal clinical outcome. Reported studies show that laparoscopic management of adnexal masses can be safely done. The short hospital stay and rapid return to normal activity combine to potentially reduce the overall cost of patient care. When cancer is unexpectedly found at the time of laparoscopic surgery for an adnexal mass, the surgeon should be prepared to proceed with staging laparotomy for appropriate treatment.
