Genetic variations and patient-reported quality of life among patients with lung cancer.
PURPOSE Recent evidence has suggested a relationship between the baseline quality of life (QOL) self-reported by patients with cancer and genetic disposition. We report an analysis exploring relationships among baseline QOL assessments and candidate genetic variations in a large cohort of patients with lung cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS QOL data were provided by 1,299 patients with non-small-c...
متن کاملRelationships Among Personality Traits, Anxiety, Depression, Hopelessness, and Quality of Life in Patients with Breast Cancer
Introduction: Personality traits, anxiety, depression, and hopelessness negatively affect quality of life in women with breast cancer. However, the contribution of each of these factors is not precisely determined. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationships among personality traits, anxiety, depression, hopelessness, and quality of life in patients with breast cancer....
متن کاملGenetic Polymorphisms of CCL22 and CCR4 in Patients with Lung Cancer
Background: An association between lung cancer and chemokines has been advocated in the recent years. This study aims at investigating the association between lung cancer and 16C/A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs. 4359426) in C-C motif chemokine 22 (CCL22) as well as C1014T SNP (rs. 2228428) in C-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CCR4), which serves as the receptor for CCL22.Methods: Genoty...
متن کاملCytokine genetic variations and fatigue among patients with breast cancer.
PURPOSE Fatigue is a common adverse effect of cancer treatment and may persist for years after treatment completion. However, risk factors for post-treatment fatigue have not been determined. On the basis of studies suggesting an inflammatory basis for fatigue, this study tested the hypothesis that expression-regulating polymorphisms in proinflammatory cytokine genes would predict post-treatmen...
متن کاملQuality of life in lung cancer patients.
The quality of life of lung cancer patients is affected by several factors related to the patients, stage of disease and treatment characteristics. For small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), the treatment is generally aggressive, primarily based on chemotherapy. Treatment strategy for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is strongly dependent on the stage of the disease and ranges from surgery to palliat...
