OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the changes of serum albumin levels during the peri-operative period, and correlate these changes to surgical outcomes, postoperative morbidity and mortality in head and neck cancer patients with cirrhosis.
METHODS
57 patients with liver cirrhosis out of 3,022 patients who
Identifying sentinel nodes near the primary tumor remains a problem in, for example, head and neck cancer because of the limited resolution of current lymphoscintigraphic imaging when using (99m)Tc-nanocolloidal albumin. This study describes the development and evaluation of a nanocolloidal
BACKGROUND
Serum albumin concentration is known to be an independent predictor of survival in head and neck cancer. The previous studies suggested relationships between serum albumin concentration and oral health status in populations without serious systemic disorders. However, these relationships
OBJECTIVE
Patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer were treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy using three courses of cisplatin. However, many patients were unable to complete the scheduled cisplatin treatment due to adverse effects. The objective of this study was to retrospectively
UNASSIGNED
Poor nutritional status among patients with advanced stage head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is common. Albumin is a common indicator of nutritional status and has been shown to be a predictor of oncological outcomes and perioperative morbidity. This study aims to determine
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this prospective study was to determine the prevalence of malnutrition and to evaluate a more sensitive marker to assess the nutritional status in patients undergoing RT for head and neck cancer.
METHODS
The prospective study included 51 (mean age of 57.6 ±11.2 years) patients
Albumin is an indicator of nutritional status and has been investigated as a predictor of cancer survival and perioperative outcomes. This study investigated the prognostic value of preoperative serum albumin in surgical patients with head and neck cancer (HNC).
Retrospective cohort study.
A chart
SPARC up-regulation is a poor prognostic factor in head and neck cancer. It was hypothesized that because of a SPARC-albumin interaction, tumoral SPARC facilitates the accumulation of albumin in the tumor and increases the effectiveness of albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel). This hypothesis
BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association and the related risk factors between postoperative complications and mortality and the severity of liver cirrhosis in head and neck cancer patients undergoing tumor ablation followed by microsurgical free tissue
OBJECTIVE
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients is associated with higher complication and mortality rates when compared to a general patient population. The pull technique is still the preferred technique worldwide but it has some limitations. The aim of
Unexpected fatal events in patients with head and neck cancers undergoing concurrent chemoradiation therapy are a clinical concern. Malnutrition, which is reported frequently in head and neck cancer patients, are associated with immunity derangement. The purpose of this study was to identify risk
To explore the risk factors of laryngo-esophageal dysfunction-free survival and nutritional support dependence over 12 months in patients with unresectable locally advanced head and neck carcinomas who received chemoradiotherapy in a phase II trial of JCOG0706 Malnutrition is common in patients with head and neck cancer (HNSCC). It may be related to severe adverse toxicity as a result of radiotherapy. The aim was to investigate nutritional screening factors for severe adverse events.
A retrospective chart review of 101 patients who underwent radiotherapy
OBJECTIVE
To elicit the factors influencing the choice of treatment and the prognosis of elderly patients, we studied the clinical and laboratory data of head and neck tumor patients. The patients were divided into two groups (group A: younger than 75, group B: 75 years of age or older) and the
The C-reactive protein/albumin (CRP/Alb) ratio has been recently established as a prognostic indicator in various cancer types. However, few reports regarding the prognostic value of the CRP/Alb ratio in head and neck cancer exist. This study aimed to investigate the significance of
