科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 精神病学是一个精神病学.
- 流行病学 流行病学
背景情况:
- 罕见的癌症,以低发病率定义 (每年每10万人中<6人),由于临床证据有限,存在独特的挑战.
- 与患有常见癌症患者相比,患有罕见癌症的患者经常经历更差的生存率和加剧的心理痛苦.
- 鉴于罕见癌症占所有癌症诊断的25%,了解它们的心理影响至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 在患有罕见癌症的患者中,系统地审查和综合有关心理结果的证据,包括抑郁,焦虑,自杀和PTSD.
- 为了比较这些心理结果在罕见癌症患者与健康对照和常见癌症患者的患病率和发病率.
主要方法:
- 2000年至2024年1月发表的研究的PRISMA-坚持的系统审查和元分析,搜索PubMed,Embase,Cochrane和PsycINFO.
- 包括32项研究,包括57,470名患有罕见癌症的患者.
- 随机效应元分析和元回归被用于数据合成和风险因素识别.
主要成果:
- 与健康对照组相比,患有罕见癌症的患者患抑郁症 (RR=2.61) 和焦虑症 (RR=2.66) 的风险显著增加.
- 抑郁症 (17%),焦虑症 (20%) 和创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD) (18%) 的患病率很高,自杀率很高 (每10万人/年有315人).
- 罕见癌症患者的自杀率和PTSD患病率明显高于常见癌症患者;晚期疾病,化疗和较低的社会经济地位被确定为危险因素.
结论:
- 罕见的癌症患者表现出不良心理结果的风险增加,包括抑郁症,焦虑症和PTSD.
- 这些发现强调了积极的心理查和针对被诊断患有罕见癌症的个体量身定制的干预策略的急需.
- 为了开发和评估有效的干预措施,以减轻这一群体的心理痛苦,进一步的研究是至关重要的.

Cancer Survival Analysis
345
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Psychosurgery, the surgical alteration or permanent removal of brain tissue to alleviate severe psychological conditions, stands as one of the most radical and controversial treatments in the history of mental health care. Its development and application have evolved significantly, marked by dramatic shifts in scientific understanding and ethical perspectives.

Cancer Therapies
7.6K
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine
4.9K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Targeted Cancer Therapies

The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.

Kaplan-Meier Approach
133
The Kaplan-Meier estimator is a non-parametric method used to estimate the survival function from time-to-event data. In medical research, it is frequently employed to measure the proportion of patients surviving for a certain period after treatment. This estimator is fundamental in analyzing time-to-event data, making it indispensable in clinical trials, epidemiological studies, and reliability engineering. By estimating survival probabilities, researchers can evaluate treatment effectiveness,...
