Pre-existing Pulmonary Diseases and Survival in Patients With Stage-dependent Lung Adenocarcinoma: A STROBE-compliant Article.

ABSTRACT: Asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) are common lung diseases associated with lung cancer mortality. This study evaluated sex disparities in pre-existing pulmonary diseases and stage-dependent lung adenocarcinoma survival.Patients newly diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma between 2003 and 2008 were identified using the National Health Insurance Research Database and Cancer Registry. Cases with lung adenocarcinoma were followed until the end of 2010. Survival curves were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox proportional-hazard regression was used to calculate the hazard ratio (HR) of pre-existing asthma, COPD, and/or TB, and to estimate all-cause mortality risk in patients with different stages of lung adenocarcinoma.A total of 14,518 cases were identified with lung adenocarcinoma. Specifically, among men, the HRs for TB were 1.69 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10-2.58), 1.48 (95% CI, 1.14-1.93), and 1.27 (95% CI, 1.08-1.49) for individuals with stage I + II, III, and IV diseases, respectively. The HRs for asthma were 1.41 (95% CI, 1.00-1.99) in women with stage I + II and 1.14 (95% CI, 1.04-1.26) in men with stage IV disease. For pulmonary disease combinations in men, the HRs were 1.45 (95% CI, 1.12-1.89) for asthma + COPD + TB, 1.35 (95% CI, 1.12-1.63) for COPD + TB, 1.28 (95% CI, 1.01-1.63) for TB, and 1.15 (95%CI, 1.04-1.27) for asthma + COPD, respectively. For women with stage I + II disease, the HR was 6.94 (95% CI, 2.72-17.71) for asthma + COPD + TB.Coexistence of pre-existing pulmonary diseases increased mortality risk in men with adenocarcinoma. TB is at elevated risk of mortality among men with different stages of adenocarcinoma. Asthmatic women with early-stage adenocarcinoma had increased risk of mortality.

Project description:The potential association between the prognosis of the pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) and its microenvironment is unclear. This study aims to construct a prognostic index (PI) model of the PAAD microenvironment to predict PAAD patient survival outcomes.The mRNA sequencing and the clinical parameters data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Immune and stromal scores were computed using the expression data algorithm to capture infiltration of immune and stromal cells in the PAAD tissue, where patients were categorized as high and low score groups according to these scores. Differentially expressed genes were identified using the R package LIMMA. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were conducted to select candidate survival-correlated gene signatures from the tumor microenvironment for constructing a model. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to access overall survival of the primary and validation cohorts. The immunological features of the PI model was explored using the Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) database. Bioinformatic analyses were conducted based on the DAVID database.A total of 1266 overlapping differentially expressed genes and 49 prognosis-associated genes were identified. A 7-mRNA signature (GBP5, BICC1, SLC7A14, CYSLTR1, P2RY6, VENTX, and RAB39B) was screened for the construction of a PI model (area under the curve = 0.791). In both the primary and validation cohorts, Kaplan Meier analysis revealed that the overall survival of the high-risk group was significantly worse compared to the low-risk group (P?<?.0001, P?=?.0028 respectively). The TIMER database described that the 7 signature genes were correlated with immune infiltrating cells and tumor purity. Bioinformatic analyses revealed that these prognosis-associated genes were significantly enriched during inflammation, the defense response, would response, calcium ion transport, and plasma membrane part.A list of the prognosis-correlated genes was generated based on the PAAD microenvironment. A 7-mRNA PI model may be used for predicting the prognosis of PAAD patients.

Project description:To shed light on the interaction between the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) T stage and M stage in the determination of the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) of esophageal carcinoma patients. Moreover, to confirm our hypothesis that tumors that metastasize to distant sites in the early T stage may reflect a more biologically aggressive disease compared with those that metastasize in more advanced T stages.We performed a retrospective cohort study with patients who were pathologically diagnosed with esophageal cancer between 2004 and 2014 in the surveillance epidemiology and end results (SEER) database. The primary study variables were the T and M stage, as well as their interaction terms. We performed a survival analysis of the interaction terms using unadjusted Kaplan-Meier methods and adjusted Cox proportional hazards models. Furthermore, we performed an exploratory analysis with stratification by histological type, esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).Data of 19,078 patients were retrieved from the SEER database. Unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve indicated that patients with T2 and T3 stage had longer median OS and CSS (3 months and 4 months, respectively) than with T1 stage in distantly metastatic esophageal cancer (M1 stage). Multivariate analysis revealed a significant interaction between the T stage and M stage when determining the OS and CSS of esophageal cancer (P?<?.001). Using T1M0 as a reference, patients with T1M1 had significantly worse OS and CSS than those with T2M1 and T3M1 stage (P?<?.001). A similar pattern was also observed among patients with EAC and ESCC.Our analysis suggests that the T1 stage predicts worse survival compared with T2 and T3 stage in distantly metastatic esophageal cancer and might be a surrogate for biologically aggressive disease, indicating that those patients should receive more aggressive treatments. Our findings also encourage researchers to discover new genomic changes in this subset of tumors with the potential to uncover new prognostic markers or drug targets. Further researches on the association between T stage and survival in metastatic esophageal cancer are warranted to validate our findings.
