Thus, we systematically searched cohort and case-control studies investigating the associations of active and passive smoking with breast cancer risk among Chinese females in four English databases(PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, and Wiley) and three Chinese databases(CNKI, WanFang, and VIP). Fifty-one articles(3 cohort studies and 48 casecontrol studies) covering 17 provinces of China were finally included in this systematic review. Among Chinese females, there was significant association between passive smoking and this risk of breast cancer [odds ratio(OR): 1.62; 95% confidence interval(CI): 1.39–1.85; I2 = 75.8%, P < 0.001; n = 26] but no significant association between active smoking and the risk of breast cancer(OR: 1.04; 95% CI: 0.89–1.20; I2 = 13.9%, P = 0.248; n = 31). The OR of exposure to husband's smoking and to smoke in the workplace was 1.27(95% CI: 1.07–1.50) and 1.66(95% CI: 1.07–2.59), respectively. The OR of light and heavy passive smoking was 1.11 and 1.41, respectively, for women exposed to their husband's smoke(< 20 and ≥ 20 cigarettes per day), and 1.07 and 1.87, respectively, for those exposed to smoke in the workplace(< 300 and ≥ 300 min of exposure per day). These results imply that passive smoking is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, and the risk seems to increase as the level of passive exposure to smoke increases among Chinese females. Women with passive exposure to smoke in the workplace have a higher risk of breast cancer than those exposed to their husband's smoking.展开更多

Th...OBJECTIVE: To assess whether dietary fat intake influences Parkinson’s disease risk. DATA SOURCES: We systematically surveyed the Embase and PubMed databases, reviewing manuscripts published prior to October 2018. The following terms were used:(“Paralysis agitans” OR “Parkinson disease” OR “Parkinson” OR “Parkinson’s” OR “Parkinson’s disease”) AND (“fat” OR “dietary fat” OR “dietary fat intake”). DATA SELECTION: Included studies were those with both dietary fat intake and Parkinson’s disease risk as exposure factors. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was adapted to investigate the quality of included studies. Stata V12.0 software was used for statistical analysis. OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcomes included the relationship between high total energy intake, high total fat intake, and Parkinson’s disease risk. The secondary outcomes included the relationship between different kinds of fatty acids and Parkinson’s disease risk. RESULTS: Nine articles met the inclusion criteria and were incorporated into this meta-analysis. Four studies scored 7 and the other five studies scored 9 on the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, meaning that all studies were of high quality. Meta-analysis results showed that high total energy intake was associated with an increased risk of Parkinson’s disease (P = 0.000, odds ratio (OR)= 1.49, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.26–1.75);in contrast, high total fat intake was not associated with Parkinson’s disease risk (P = 0.123, OR = 1.07, 95% CI: 0.91–1.25). Subgroup analysis revealed that polyunsaturated fatty acid intake (P = 0.010, OR = 1.03, 95% CI: 0.88–1.20) reduced the risk of Parkinson’s disease, while arachidonic acid (P = 0.026, OR = 1.15, 95% CI: 0.97–1.37) and cholesterol (P = 0.002, OR = 1.09, 95% CI: 0.92–1.29) both increased the risk of Parkinson’s disease. Subgroup analysis also demonstrated that, although the results were not significant, consumption of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (P = 0.071, OR = 0.88, 95% CI: 0.73–1.05),α-linolenic acid (P = 0.06, OR = 0.86, 95% CI: 0.72–1.02), and the n-3 to n-6 ratio (P = 0.458, OR = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.75–1.06) were all linked with a trend toward reduced Parkinson’s disease risk. Monounsaturated fatty acid (P = 0.450, OR = 1.06, 95% CI: 0.91–1.23), n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (P = 0.100, OR = 1.15, 95% CI: 0.96–1.36) and linoleic acid (P = 0.053, OR = 1.11, 95% CI: 0.94–1.32) intakes were associated with a non-significant trend toward higher PD risk. Saturated fatty acid (P = 0.619, OR = 1.01, 95% CI: 0.87–1.18) intake was not associated with Parkinson’s disease. CONCLUSION: Dietary fat intake affects Parkinson’s disease risk, although this depends on the fatty acid subtype. Higher intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids may reduce the risk of Parkinson’s disease, while higher cholesterol and arachidonic acid intakes may elevate Parkinson’s disease risk. However, further studies and evidence are needed to validate any link between dietary fat intake and Parkinson’s disease.展开更多

The included studies were assessed for methodological quality with quality assessment of diagnosis accuracy studies(QUADAS) score tool. Histopathological analysis and/or clinical and/or radiological follow-up for at least 6 months were used as the reference standard. The data were extracted by two reviewers independently to analyze the sensitivity, specificity, summary receiver operating characteristic(SROC) curve, area under the curve(AUC), and heterogeneity.Results: The present study analyzed a total of 4 selected articles. The pool sensitivity was 0.773 [95% confidence interval(CI): 0.594-0.900]. The pooled specificity was 0.685(95% CI: 0.479-0.849) on basis of FEM. The pooled LR^+, LR^-, and DOR were 2.874(1.492-5.538), 0.293(0.146-0.589), and 14.891(3.238-68.475), respectively. The AUC was 0.8636(±0.0655), and the Q* index was 0.7942(±0.0636).Conclusions: Our results indicate that 18^F-FLT PET/CT or PET is useful to predict chemotherapy response in breast cancer with reasonable sensitivity, specificity and DOR. However, future larger scale clinical trials will be needed to assess the regimen of 18^F-FLT PET/CT or PET in monitoring the response to chemotherapy in breast cancer patients.展开更多

Methods: The following databases were searched from their inception until August 2017: Ovid Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and Allied and Alternative Medieine (AMED). We also searched four Chinese databases: Chinese BioMedical Database (CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WANFANG Data, and Chinese VIP Database. Only the RCTs related to the effects of AA therapy on preventing constipation in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy were included in this study. Quantitative syntheses of data from RCTs were conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. Study selection, data extraction, and validation were performed independently by two authors. Cochrane criteria for risk of bias were used to assess the methodological quality of the trials. Results: Four RCTs met the inclusion criteria, and most were of low methodological quality. Study participants in the AA plus routine care group showed significantly greater improvements in the response rate (risk ratio [RR] = 1.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.14, 1.42], P 〈 0.01) with low heterogeneity (x2=2.31, P =0.31, F = 14%). In addition, when compared with routine care alone, one RCT suggested favorable statistically significant effects of AA plus routine care on Constipation Assessment Scale (CAS; mean difference [MD] =-5.07, 95% CI [-6.86, -3.28], P 〈 0.01). Furthermore, when compared with routine care alone, one RCT suggested positive statistically significant effects of AA plus routine care on Patient Assessment of Constipation-Quality of Life (PAC-QOL; MD = -1.26, 95% CI [-1.59, -0.93], P 〈 0.01). Conclusions: Overall, as a potential safety therapy, only weak evidence can support the hypothesis that AA can effectively prevent constipation in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.展开更多

This meta-analysis was performed to explore the overall effect of migraine on breast cancer risk. Method: An electronic search of different major databases was conducted, including PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and the Cochrane library until February 1st, 2015. Of 652 retrieved studies, six population-based studies including two cohort studies with 130,812 and four case-control studies with 14,396 people were included in the analysis. Results: There was an inverse relationship between migraine and breast cancer risk (OR = 0.77;95% CI: 0.64, 0.92). Conclusion: The results of this meta-analysis showed that women with migraine history have a decreased risk of breast cancer. Further biological studies are needed to address the association.展开更多

Materials and Methods: Relevant studies were identified by systematic searches of PUBMED and COCHRANE databases, published in English. To ensure homogeneity of all included studies, selection criteria were established and all the studies were scored according to Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS) criteria. Meta-analysis was done on the diagnostic performance data from eligible studies. Draw funnel plots to explore the publication bias. Draw forest plots to exclude abnormal data(s). Use Spearman correlation coefficients p, likelihood ratio x2 test and I2 index in order to indicate heterogeneity. Estimate and compare the weighted summary sensitivities (SEs), specificities (SPs), diagnostic odds ratios (DORs), and summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curves of PET and other examinations (measuring the size of tumor). Subgroup analyses were performed to identify heterogeneity potential sources. Do Z test to find significant difference between each results. Results: 27 groups of data in 19 eligible studies were included with a total of 1164 subjects evaluated by 18F-FDG PET or PET/CT and 291 ones evaluated by other examinations. Funnel plots showed the existence of publication bias. Spearman correlation coefficients p, likelihood ratio x2 test and I2 index explored the heterogeneity. The Results of the Weighted Summary: SEPET was significantly higher than SED [83.7% (329/393) vs. 59.0% (98/166), p SPPET was significantly higher than SPD [66.8% (512/766) vs. 40.8% (51/125), p DORPET was significantly higher than DORD (14.02 vs. 1.29, p AUCPET and Q*PET were both significantly higher than AUCD and Q*D (AUCs 0.8838 vs. 0.6046;Q*s 0.8143 vs. 0.5788, p st or 2nd cycle of NAC was a litter better than later with higher SE (p = 0.083). Standardized uptake value (SUV) reduction rate between 40% and 45% as FDG-PET response threshold value was used for its highest SP (p = 0.01), while no significant difference was found comparing SEs and DORs (p > 0.05). Trend of higher SE and lower SP were found at ER negative breast cancers than ER positive ones (SEs 93.94% vs. 83.33%;SPs 35.76% vs. 62.24%), though Z test did not find significant difference (p > 0.05). Conclusion: This meta-analysis showed that FDG-PET or PET/CT does have a higher global accuracy in assessing the response for NAC in breast cancer. Comparing with clinical response, metabolic response plays a potential role in directing therapy for breast cancer. Factors which affected the accuracy of FDG-PET assessment included PET timing point, SUV reduction rate as threshold value and ER expression.展开更多

文摘Previous studies suggested that smoking and passive smoking could increase the risk of breast cancer, but the results were inconsistent, especially for Chinese females. Thus, we systematically searched cohort and case-control studies investigating the associations of active and passive smoking with breast cancer risk among Chinese females in four English databases(PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, and Wiley) and three Chinese databases(CNKI, WanFang, and VIP). Fifty-one articles(3 cohort studies and 48 casecontrol studies) covering 17 provinces of China were finally included in this systematic review.

The OR of light and heavy passive smoking was 1.11 and 1.41, respectively, for women exposed to their husband's smoke(< 20 and ≥ 20 cigarettes per day), and 1.07 and 1.87, respectively, for those exposed to smoke in the workplace(< 300 and ≥ 300 min of exposure per day). These results imply that passive smoking is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, and the risk seems to increase as the level of passive exposure to smoke increases among Chinese females. Women with passive exposure to smoke in the workplace have a higher risk of breast cancer than those exposed to their husband's smoking.

文摘OBJECTIVE: To assess whether dietary fat intake influences Parkinson’s disease risk. DATA SOURCES: We systematically surveyed the Embase and PubMed databases, reviewing manuscripts published prior to October 2018. The following terms were used:(“Paralysis agitans” OR “Parkinson disease” OR “Parkinson” OR “Parkinson’s” OR “Parkinson’s disease”) AND (“fat” OR “dietary fat” OR “dietary fat intake”). DATA SELECTION: Included studies were those with both dietary fat intake and Parkinson’s disease risk as exposure factors. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was adapted to investigate the quality of included studies. Stata V12.0 software was used for statistical analysis. OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcomes included the relationship between high total energy intake, high total fat intake, and Parkinson’s disease risk. The secondary outcomes included the relationship between different kinds of fatty acids and Parkinson’s disease risk. RESULTS: Nine articles met the inclusion criteria and were incorporated into this meta-analysis. Four studies scored 7 and the other five studies scored 9 on the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, meaning that all studies were of high quality. Meta-analysis results showed that high total energy intake was associated with an increased risk of Parkinson’s disease (P = 0.000, odds ratio (OR)= 1.49, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.26–1.75);in contrast, high total fat intake was not associated with Parkinson’s disease risk (P = 0.123, OR = 1.07, 95% CI: 0.91–1.25). Subgroup analysis revealed that polyunsaturated fatty acid intake (P = 0.010, OR = 1.03, 95% CI: 0.88–1.20) reduced the risk of Parkinson’s disease, while arachidonic acid (P = 0.026, OR = 1.15, 95% CI: 0.97–1.37) and cholesterol (P = 0.002, OR = 1.09, 95% CI: 0.92–1.29) both increased the risk of Parkinson’s disease. Subgroup analysis also demonstrated that, although the results were not significant, consumption of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (P = 0.071, OR = 0.88, 95% CI: 0.73–1.05),α-linolenic acid (P = 0.06, OR = 0.86, 95% CI: 0.72–1.02), and the n-3 to n-6 ratio (P = 0.458, OR = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.75–1.06) were all linked with a trend toward reduced Parkinson’s disease risk. Monounsaturated fatty acid (P = 0.450, OR = 1.06, 95% CI: 0.91–1.23), n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (P = 0.100, OR = 1.15, 95% CI: 0.96–1.36) and linoleic acid (P = 0.053, OR = 1.11, 95% CI: 0.94–1.32) intakes were associated with a non-significant trend toward higher PD risk. Saturated fatty acid (P = 0.619, OR = 1.01, 95% CI: 0.87–1.18) intake was not associated with Parkinson’s disease. CONCLUSION: Dietary fat intake affects Parkinson’s disease risk, although this depends on the fatty acid subtype. Higher intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids may reduce the risk of Parkinson’s disease, while higher cholesterol and arachidonic acid intakes may elevate Parkinson’s disease risk. However, further studies and evidence are needed to validate any link between dietary fat intake and Parkinson’s disease.

文摘Purpose: To determine the diagnostic performance of 3'-deoxy-3'-18F-fluorothymidine positron emission tomography/computed tomography(FLT PET/CT) and FLT PET for evaluating response to chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer.Methods: Databases such as Pub Med(MEDLINE included) and excerpta medica database(EMBASE), were searched for relevant original articles. The included studies were assessed for methodological quality with quality assessment of diagnosis accuracy studies(QUADAS) score tool. Histopathological analysis and/or clinical and/or radiological follow-up for at least 6 months were used as the reference standard. The data were extracted by two reviewers independently to analyze the sensitivity, specificity, summary receiver operating characteristic(SROC) curve, area under the curve(AUC), and heterogeneity.Results: The present study analyzed a total of 4 selected articles. The pool sensitivity was 0.773 [95% confidence interval(CI): 0.594-0.900]. The pooled specificity was 0.685(95% CI: 0.479-0.849) on basis of FEM. The pooled LR^+, LR^-, and DOR were 2.874(1.492-5.538), 0.293(0.146-0.589), and 14.891(3.238-68.475), respectively. The AUC was 0.8636(±0.0655), and the Q* index was 0.7942(±0.0636).Conclusions: Our results indicate that 18^F-FLT PET/CT or PET is useful to predict chemotherapy response in breast cancer with reasonable sensitivity, specificity and DOR. However, future larger scale clinical trials will be needed to assess the regimen of 18^F-FLT PET/CT or PET in monitoring the response to chemotherapy in breast cancer patients.
文摘Objective: To evaluate the available evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of auricular acupressure (AA) therapy for preventing constipation in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Methods: The following databases were searched from their inception until August 2017: Ovid Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and Allied and Alternative Medieine (AMED). We also searched four Chinese databases: Chinese BioMedical Database (CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WANFANG Data, and Chinese VIP Database. Only the RCTs related to the effects of AA therapy on preventing constipation in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy were included in this study. Quantitative syntheses of data from RCTs were conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. Study selection, data extraction, and validation were performed independently by two authors. Cochrane criteria for risk of bias were used to assess the methodological quality of the trials. Results: Four RCTs met the inclusion criteria, and most were of low methodological quality. Study participants in the AA plus routine care group showed significantly greater improvements in the response rate (risk ratio [RR] = 1.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.14, 1.42], P 〈 0.01) with low heterogeneity (x2=2.31, P =0.31, F = 14%). In addition, when compared with routine care alone, one RCT suggested favorable statistically significant effects of AA plus routine care on Constipation Assessment Scale (CAS; mean difference [MD] =-5.07, 95% CI [-6.86, -3.28], P 〈 0.01). Furthermore, when compared with routine care alone, one RCT suggested positive statistically significant effects of AA plus routine care on Patient Assessment of Constipation-Quality of Life (PAC-QOL; MD = -1.26, 95% CI [-1.59, -0.93], P 〈 0.01). Conclusions: Overall, as a potential safety therapy, only weak evidence can support the hypothesis that AA can effectively prevent constipation in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.

The Results of the Weighted Summary: SEPET was significantly higher than SED [83.7% (329/393) vs. 59.0% (98/166), p SPPET was significantly higher than SPD [66.8% (512/766) vs. 40.8% (51/125), p DORPET was significantly higher than DORD (14.02 vs. 1.29, p AUCPET and Q*PET were both significantly higher than AUCD and Q*D (AUCs 0.8838 vs. 0.6046;Q*s 0.8143 vs. 0.5788, p st or 2nd cycle of NAC was a litter better than later with higher SE (p = 0.083). Standardized uptake value (SUV) reduction rate between 40% and 45% as FDG-PET response threshold value was used for its highest SP (p = 0.01), while no significant difference was found comparing SEs and DORs (p > 0.05). Trend of higher SE and lower SP were found at ER negative breast cancers than ER positive ones (SEs 93.94% vs. 83.33%;SPs 35.76% vs. 62.24%), though Z test did not find significant difference (p > 0.05). Conclusion: This meta-analysis showed that FDG-PET or PET/CT does have a higher global accuracy in assessing the response for NAC in breast cancer. Comparing with clinical response, metabolic response plays a potential role in directing therapy for breast cancer. Factors which affected the accuracy of FDG-PET assessment included PET timing point, SUV reduction rate as threshold value and ER expression.
