目的 初步探討影響男性乳腺癌患者預后的因素。 方法 收集2003年1月－2011年12月經病理確診、接受治療、臨床資料較完整的36例男性乳腺癌患者的臨床資料。采用對數秩檢驗和Cox回歸分析影響男性乳腺癌患者預后的因素。 結果 36例患者無進展生存期（PFS）為3～95個月，中位PFS為45個月。單因素分析顯示：腫瘤直徑（P=0.001）、陽性淋巴結（P=0.001）、TNM分期（P＜0.001）、手術方式（P=0.001）是影響預后的因素。多因素分析顯示：陽性淋巴結（P=0.024）和TNM分期（P=0.022）是影響預后的主要因素。 結論 陽性淋巴結和TNM分期是影響預后的主要因素，以手術為主的綜合治療模式是提高男性乳腺癌患者生存率的重要措施。
Objective To investigate the correlation between glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and severity of coronary artery lesions in young men with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods Total 278 young men with AMI less than 45 years old were retrospectively studied, and all of them were admitted to hospital from January 2009 to December 2011, and had undergone coronary angiography. According to the results of coronary angiography, the patients were divided into three groups based on the number of artery lesions: the single group (156 cases), the double group (64 cases) and the triple group (58 cases). The relationship between the severity of coronary artery lesions and the following factors were observed: HbA1c, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), hemoglobin (Hb), serum uric acid (UA), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), body mass index (BMI), smoking history, drinking history and family history of early coronary artery disease. Results a) HbA1c levels were gradually raised in all the three groups, but the single group (6.39±1.67%) was significantly lower than the double group (6.91±1.63%) and the triple group (7.41±2.12%), with significant differences (Plt;0.05); the HbA1c level of the single group was significantly lower than the triple group in both the ST-segment elevation AMI (6.42±1.68% vs. 7.17±1.86%, Plt;0.05) and the non-ST-segment AMI (5.57±0.37% vs. 8.56±2.83%, Plt;0.05); the HbA1c level of the single group was significantly lower than the triple group in patients with diabetes millitus (8.31±1.83% vs. 8.59±2.02%, Plt;0.05) and in patients without diabetes millitus (5.56±0.33% vs. 5.74±0.37%, Plt;0.05); b) There were significant differences in SBP, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C and drinking history between the single group and the other two groups (all Plt;0.05), and there were significant differences in DBP and TG between the single group and the double group (all Plt;0.05); and c) The results of logistic regression analysis showed that, LDL-C (OR=1.790), HbA1c (OR=1.287) and SBP (OR=1.042) were the independent risk factors (all Plt;0.05) for multiple lesions in coronary arteries of young men with AMI. Conclusion Glycosylated hemoglobin A1c is an independent risk factor for multiple lesions in coronary arteries of young men with AMI.
Objective To explore the correlation between hematocrit and slow coronary flow (SCF) in male patients. Methods We studied 205 patients with angiographically no more than one stenosis lt;40% in each major coronary artery who had admitted to the department of cardiology of the Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from August 2011 to August 2012. According to the level of hematocrit, 101 patients were classified into the trial group whose hematocrit was more 42.9%, while 104 patients into the control group whose hematocrit was no more than 42.9%. Clinical variables were analyzed and compared between the two groups. Results The age was younger in the trial group than the control group, whereas the levels of white blood cell count, mean platelet volume, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, left anterior descending artery (LAD) and right coronary artery (RCA) TIMI frame count and the proportion of SCF in the LAD were higher in the trial group than in the control group (Plt;0.05). The results of correlation analysis showed that, LAD TIMI frame count (r=0.238, P=0.001), proportion of SCF in the LAD (r=0.206, P=0.003) and RCA TIMI frame count (r=0.209, P=0.003) were positively correlated with hematocrit. The results of multivariate analysis (using logistic regression with adjusted confounding factors such as age) showed that, LAD TIMI frame count (OR=1.031, 95%CI 1.006 to 1.056, P=0.014), proportion of SCF in the LAD (OR=1.919, 95%CI 1.038 to 3.547, P=0.038) were independently correlated with hematocrit. Conclusion The proportion of SCF in the LAD is independently correlated to hematocrit, which suggested that increased hematocrit may contribute to the pathophysiological change of SCF in male patients.
Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features, postoperative survival and prognostic influencing factors of male patients with hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC）. Methods The clinicopathological features and the follow-up data of 155 male HCC patients who received hepatectomy from Jan. 1995 to Dec. 2002 were retrospectively analyzed and the prognostic influencing factors were defined by uni- and multi-variate analysis. Results Compared with 24 female patients at the same period, males were about six-year older and both of their hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and liver cirrhosis positive rates were higher (P＜0.05)， but there were no significant differences of the other clinicopathological parameters between the male group and the female group. Multivariate analysis showed that Edmondson-Steiner grade and portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) were two independent prognostic influencing factors of both the overall survival and the tumor-free postoperative survival of male patients with HCC, while satellite nodule and tumor size only influenced the overall survival. Conclusion The main clinicopathological features and the postoperative survival of male HCC patients were similar than those of female’s. Tumor differentiation and biological behaviors were major factors affecting postoperative survival of male patients with HCC.
ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress of the cause, treatment, and other aspects in male breast cancer (MBC). MethodsThrough reading the related literatures, relevant literatures of MBC were reviewed. ResultsFamily history, BRCA1/2 mutation, the imbalance of level of estrogen and androgen, and other factors were risk factors of the MBC. Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) was feasible in the MBC. Radiotherapy could control local recurrence of MBC, and chemotherapy may be beneficial for long-term survival rate of MBC. The endocrine therapy principle for MBC was not exact as female breast cancer (FBC). ConclusionsMBC has many risk factors. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and endocrine therapy are benefit to MBC patients, but it still needs to be confirmed by many high-quality clinical researches of large sample.
Objective To investigate the relationship between skin/pectoral muscle invasion and the prognosis of male breast cancer. Methods Clinical data and follow-up information of 79 male breast cancer patients who received treatment between September 2008 to April 2020 in West China Hospital were retrospectively reviewed, to analyze the clinicopathological features of male breast cancer and prognostic value of skin/pectoral muscle invasion. Results Among 79 male breast cancer patients, a total of 23 patients (29.1%) were with skin/pectoral muscle invasion at diagnosis. All the patients were followed up, with a median follow-up period of 63.3 months (1.0–204.5 months). Within follow-up period, 8 patients (10.1%) suffered from relapse, 19 patients (24.7%, 19/77) suffered from metastasis, and 4 patients (5.1%) died. Multivariate Cox proportional risk regression model suggested that patients with skin/pectoral muscle invaded had poor disease free survival [RR=4.48, 95%CI (1.08, 18.52), P=0.038]. Conclusions Skinor pectoral muscle invasion might be a valuable prognostic factor for male breast cancer patients. However, limited by sample size, the conclusion should be proved by further high-level studies.
