Disease‐Specific Survival with Spindle Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2015
Objectives(1) Determine factors influencing survival in patients diagnosed with spindle cell carcinoma (SpCC), a rare variant of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). (2) Compare survival of patients with SpCC to those with conventional SCC.Study DesignRetrospective cohort study.SettingSurveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results 18 database ...

Disease-specific survival following the brachytherapy management of prostate cancer

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2006
To determine disease-specific survival (DSS) and associated predictive factors after prostate brachytherapy.A total of 1561 patients underwent brachytherapy for prostate cancer from 1990 to 2004 (median follow-up, 3.8 years). Treatment included brachytherapy alone (n = 634), brachytherapy and hormonal therapy (n = 420), and implant and external beam ...

The role of grade in local recurrence and the disease-specific survival in chondrosarcomas

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2018
Aims The purpose of this study was to describe the effect of histological grade on disease-specific survival in patients with chondrosarcoma. Patients and Methods A total of 343 patients with a chondrosarcoma were included. The histological grade was assessed on the initial biopsy and on the resection specimen. Where the histology showed a mixed grade,

MMP-9 (Gelatinase B) Expression is Associated With Disease-Free Survival and Disease-Specific Survival in Colorectal Cancer Patients

Cancer Investigation, 2009
Extracellular matrix degradation is required for invasion and metastasis formation in colorectal carcinoma (CRC), therefore, we have examined matrix metalloproteinases MMP-9 expression in tumors from patients with CRC. The study comprises of 360 patients who underwent bowel resection for stage II, III, IV tumors.

Overall and disease-specific survival after radical prostatectomy: geographic uniformity

Urology, 2001
To examine whether the survival (both overall and disease-specific) of patients who underwent radical prostatectomy varies from region to region in the United States. Previous reports have documented a geographic variation in the use of radical prostatectomy.This study was based on the data from nine geographic regions of the Surveillance, Epidemiology,

PRAME expression in cutaneous melanoma does not correlate with disease‐specific survival

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, 2023
AbstractBackgroundImmunohistochemistry‐based protein biomarkers can provide useful prognostic information in cutaneous melanoma. The independent prognostic value of Ki‐67 has been studied with variable results. PReferentially expressed Antigen in MElanoma (PRAME) immunohistochemistry is a useful new ancillary tool for distinguishing cutaneous nevi from

Prognostic Factors Depicting Disease-Specific Survival in Parotid-Gland Tumors

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2007
To identify significant prognostic factors that can be used in clinical decision-making with regard to parotid cancer, which is characterized by a complex and diverse group of tumors with variable outcomes.A historical cohort of 184 patients with parotid-gland malignancy, who had been registered in the Province of Manitoba from 1970 to 2003, was ...

[Comparison between Overall Survival and Disease-Specific Survival after Surgery in Gastric Cancer].

Gan to kagaku ryoho. Cancer & chemotherapy, 2021
It has been reported that we should give consideration to death caused by other disease from comparison between overall survival(OS)and disease specific survival(DSS)in several studies.Relationships between the clinicopathological features of OS and DSS were examined among 197 patients undergoing surgery for gastric cancer.In OS analysis, the Charlson ...

Improved prostate cancer-specific survival and other disease parameters: impact of prostate-specific antigen testing

Urology, 2002
To determine how the implementation of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing has affected disease-specific survival and other characteristics of prostate cancer.Data were collected on all patients with prostate cancer diagnosed between 1988 and 1998 and registered in the Center for Prostate Disease Research Database at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

Nonparametric Estimation of the Distribution of Time to Onset for Specific Diseases in Survival/Sacrifice Experiments

Biometrics, 1984
This paper concerns the analysis of an animal survival/sacrifice experiment designed to investigate the incidence of a particular disease of interest. The disease is assumed to be irreversible, and detectable only at death, for example by a necropsy.
