Microvessel density as a prognostic factor in women with breast cancer: a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis.
We performed a meta-analysis of all 87 published studies linking intratumoral microvessel density (MVD), reflecting angiogenesis, to relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). With median MVD as cutoff, MVD impact was measured by risk ratio (RR) between the two survival distributions. Seventeen studies did not mention survival data or fit inclusion criteria. Twenty-two were multiple...

متن کاملPrognostic significance of microvessel density in breast cancer of Thai women.
OBJECTIVE Angiogenesis is important in the process of tumor growth and progression of breast cancer Microvessel density (MVD) is the most commonly used technique to quantify intratumoral angiogenesis in breast cancer. In the present study, the authors investigated the prognostic indicator of intratumoral MVD in predicting overall survival, disease recurrence, and distance metastasis of breast c...
متن کاملMicrovessel density as a prognostic factor in esophageal squamous cell cancer patients
BACKGROUND To date, literature has emerged that shows contradictory results about the prognostic role of microvessel density (MVD) in esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC). The aim of the study set out to evaluate the correlation between MVD and the prognosis of ESCC. METHODS Identified publications from various databases were obtained and reviewed. A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate ...
متن کاملCXCL12/CXCR4 Gene Polymorphism as a Putative Prognostic Factor for Metastasizing Breast Cancer under Chemotherapy
The receptor and the receptor axis CXCL12 / CXCR4 are the two pairs studied in the metastasis of breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the occurrence of CXCR4 / CXCL12 genes polymorphism and the clinical and pathological characteristics of patients with metastatic breast cancer under chemotherapy. Material and methods: Genomic DNA was extracted f...
