This study aimed to clarify associations between health insurance status and overall survival (OS) estimates in this population.
Materials And Methods: We examined 18 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registries in the United States and analyzed American AYA patients with lymphoma diagnosed during January 2007 and December 2016.
Background: The impacts of health insurance status on survival outcomes in children, adolescents, and young adults (aged 0-39 years) with malignant tumors have not been addressed in depth. The present study aimed to identify significant relationships of health insurance condition with overall survival or all-cause mortality among children (age 0-14 years) and adolescents and young adults (AYAs, age 15-39 years) with malignant tumors.
Methods: PubMed, Wiley Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Econlit, CINAHL, Web of Knowledge, PsychInfo, Business Source Premier, ProQuest Dissertation & Theses Database, and SCOPUS were systematically searched from inception to February 29, 2020 with no language restriction.
Purpose: Neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiation therapy (nCRT) plus surgery has been a standard treatment for locoregionally advanced esophageal cancer and carcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction (EC/GEJ), but the optimal preoperative radiation dose is still unclear. We performed this systematic review to explore the treatment efficacy and toxicity of different radiation dose levels and find an optimal dose-fractionation strategy in EC/GEJ patients receiving nCRT.
Methods And Materials: Embase and Ovid Medline were searched for articles involving cases of operable squamous and adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and GEJ in which patients received nCRT up to a dose of 50.
Background/aim: The impacts of health insurance status on survival outcomes in multiple myeloma (MM) have not been addressed in depth. The present study was conducted to identify definite relationships of cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS) with health insurance status in MM patients.
Methods: MM patients aged 18-64 years and with complete insurance records between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2016, were identified from 18 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Database registries.
Objective: Observe therapeutic effect of suspended moxibustion on temperature-sensitive acupoints for chronic prostatitis, to explore a new therapy.
Methods: Sixty cases were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group (n = 30 in each group). The suspended moxibustion on temperature-sensitive acupoints plus herbalenema were practiced in the observation group.
Objective: To probe into a new therapy with less pain, good therapeutic effect and convenience for facial palsy in acute stage.
Methods: Sixty cases were randomly divided into 2 groups, an observation group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with routine acupuncture plus moxibustion on temperature-sensitive points, and the control group with the routine acupuncture.
