The lifelong risk of metachronous colorectal cancer justifies long-term colonoscopic follow-up.
The aim of this study was to calculate the risk of metachronous colorectal cancers, to specify their characteristics and potential risk factors in a well-defined French population over a 27-year period.The 10,801 patients who had colorectal cancers totalled 61,879 person-years of follow-up. The actuarial method was used to obtain crude metachronous colorectal cancer rates. Standardised incidence ratios (SIRs) were calculated.The cumulative rate of metachronous colorectal cancer was 1.8% at 5 years, 3.4% at 10 years and 7.2% at 20 years. The incidence of metachronous colorectal cancer following a first colorectal cancer was higher than expected (SIR: 1.5 [1.3-1.7] p0.001). It remained greate…
Longterm Risk of Solid Organ De Novo Malignancies After Liver Transplantation: A French National Study on 11,226 Patients
IF 3.756; International audience; De novo malignancies are one of the major late complications and causes of death after liver transplantation (LT). Using extensive data from the French national Agence de la Biomédecine database, the present study aimed to quantify the risk of solid organ de novo malignancies (excluding nonmelanoma skin cancers) after LT. The incidence of de novo malignancies among all LT patients between 1993 and 2012 was compared with that of the French population, standardized on age, sex, and calendar period (standardized incidence ratio; SIR). Among the 11,226 LT patients included in the study, 1200 de novo malignancies were diagnosed (10.7%). The risk of death was app…
Impact pronostique de la concentration de 3-hydroxymyristate sur la survie des patients atteints de cirrhose alcoolique ou virale
Etat de la question Le role de l’endotoxemie liee a la translocation bacterienne sur l’aggravation de la cirrhose fait l’objet de nombreuses etudes, mais son impact sur la mortalite au cours de la cirrhose est mal connu. Le but de ce travail etait d’etudier l’impact de la concentration sanguine de 3-hydroxymyristate (3-HM) total (composant specifique des lipopolysaccharides, endotoxine), sur le risque de deces et de complications des malades cirrhotiques. Materiel et methodes Au total, 593 patients atteints de cirrhose alcoolique ou virale, sans carcinome hepatocellulaire ont ete inclus entre 2008 et 2012 dans six centres hospitalo-universitaires francais. Le dosage de 3-HM total, libre et …
Risk factors for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) severity and mortality among solid cancer patients and impact of the disease on anticancer treatment: A French nationwide cohort study (GCO-002 CACOVID-19).
Background Cancer patients are thought to have an increased risk of developing severe Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection and of dying from the disease. In this work, predictive factors for COVID-19 severity and mortality in cancer patients were investigated. Patients and Methods In this large nationwide retro-prospective cohort study, we collected data on patients with solid tumours and COVID-19 diagnosed between March 1 and June 11, 2020. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality and COVID-19 severity, defined as admission to an intensive care unit (ICU) and/or mechanical ventilation and/or death, was one of the secondary endpoints. Results From April 4 to June 11, 2020, 1289…
Risk factors of de novo malignancies after liver transplantation: a French national study on 11004 adult patients.
International audience; Background: After liver transplantation (LT),de novo malignancies are one of the leading causes of late mortality. The aim of the present retrospective study was to identify the risk factors of de novo malignancies in a large cohort of LT recipients in France, using Fine and Gray competing risks regression analysis.Methods: The study population consisted in 11004 adults transplanted between 2000 and 2013, who had no history of pre-transplant malignancy, except primary liver tumor. A Cox model adapted to the identification of prognostic factors (competitive risks) was used.Results: From the entire cohort, one (or more)de novo malignancy was reported in 1480 L T recipi…
Prognostic Impact of 3-HM Concentration in Patients with Alcoholic or Viral Cirrhosis
The role of endotoxemia related to intestinal bacterial translocation in worsening liver disease is the subject of many studies, but its impact on cirrhosis mortality has not been well evaluated. In this study, 3-hydroxymyristate (3-HM) (specific lipid of lipopolysaccharides) was directly quantified by an innovative patented assay with the aim of assessing the impact on cirrhosis mortality. The 3-HM concentration was measured in 593 patients with alcoholic or viral cirrhosis in stable clinical condition. A Cox hazards regression model was used to evaluate association between 3-HM and its fractions bound or nor bound to lipoprotein and the mortality. The 3-HM concentration was increased in p…
