Introduction Increased mortality has been demonstrated in older adults with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but the effect of frailty has been unclear. Methods This multi-centre cohort study involved patients aged 18 years and older hospitalised with COVID-19, using routinely collected data. We used Cox regression analysis to assess the impact of age, frailty and delirium on the risk of inpatient mortality, adjusting for sex, illness severity, inflammation and co-morbidities. We used ordinal logistic regression analysis to assess the impact of age, Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) and delirium on risk of increased care requirements on discharge, adjusting for the same variables. Results Data from 5,711 patients from 55 hospitals in 12 countries were included (median age 74, interquartile range [IQR] 54–83; 55.2% male). The risk of death increased independently with increasing age (>80 versus 18–49: hazard ratio [HR] 3.57, confidence interval [CI] 2.54–5.02), frailty (CFS 8 versus 1–3: HR 3.03, CI 2.29–4.00) inflammation, renal disease, cardiovascular disease and cancer, but not delirium. Age, frailty (CFS 7 versus 1–3: odds ratio 7.00, CI 5.27–9.32), delirium, dementia and mental health diagnoses were all associated with increased risk of higher care needs on discharge. The likelihood of adverse outcomes increased across all grades of CFS from 4 to 9. Conclusion Age and frailty are independently associated with adverse outcomes in COVID-19. Risk of increased care needs was also increased in survivors of COVID-19 with frailty or older age.

Objective: Pathologic complete response (pCR) is a surrogate endpoint for prognosis after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for breast cancer. The present study aimed to identify the predictive factors of an axillary pathological complete response (Ax-pCR) and breast pathological complete response (Br-pCR) in patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and identification of the differences of predictive factors effecting complete response. Materials and Methods: From February 2014 to June 2019, 508 women with breast cancer treated in our clinic and the present study included 207 (40.7%) patients who underwent NACT followed by curative surgery. We collected data on demographics, tumor characteristics including histology and subtype, axillary status, and treatment effect details. The predictive factors of Ax-pCR and Br-pCR were analyzed using a chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression models. Results: Mean age is 50.8 (24-82) and mean diameter of tumor is 34.9mm (20-220mm). Majority of patients (91.7%) have axillary lymphadenopathy (cN+) before NACT. Seventy five patients (39.47%) had Ax-pCR and 50 patients (24.1%) had Br-pCR. We achieved pathologic complete response (breast and axillary) on 42 (19.8%) patients. Age is not a predictive factor on Br-pCR and Ax-pCR. As expected, Ki67 status correlated with pCR. From 41 of 50 patients which has Br-pCR have no metastatic lypmph node on specimen (p<0.01). Together with this 37 of 75 Ax-pCR patiens have Br-pCR (49.3%) that shows that the correlation between Ax-pCR and Br-pCR. We achieved Br-pCR on T1 tumors easily (p=0.05) but we couldnt feel the advantage of this on Ax-pCR (p=0.9). Among cN+ participants The rates of ypN0 in patients with hormone receptor positive (HR+)/HER2-, HR+/HER2+, HR-/HER2+, and triple-negative (TN) breast cancer were 23.9% (21/88), 40.4% (19/47), 64% (16/25), and 67.9% (19/28), respectively (p<0.001). Molecular subtypes, clinical stage and pathologic complete response of the breast tumor (Br-pCR) correlated with ypN0 after full-course NACT (p<0.05). Highest benefit group from NACT are triple negative tumors. Despite Luminal A tumors are the lowest ratio of pCR (8.4%) we achieved 24% Ax-pCR. We realized that Luminal status have more influence on Ax-pCR (p<0.01) than Br-pCR (p=0.02). Extracapsular lymph node invasion on pathologic specimen also predictive factor for Br-pCR (OR=0.285 p=0.04) Conclusion: Factors effecting on Ax-pCR and Br-pCR are similar except cT status. NACT's 24% Ax-pCR success on Luminal A tumors offers an alternative to avoid axillary surgery. At the same time detecting extracapsular lymph node invasion on preoperative ultrasonographic imaging may helpful to decide which patients will benefit less from NACT. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: The necessity of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is indisputably important in the management of invasive breast cancer patients. NAC can provide operability in patients with locally advanced breast cancer, eliminate the need for axillary dissection in patients with axillary metastasis, and allow breast-conserving surgery (BCS) in patients with large tumor size. In the determination of these patients; MRI has an important role in the evaluation of tumor diameter, localization and tumor number, depth of invasion and lymph node (LN) metastasis. In this study; the extent to which MR imaging can predict the pathological response in the evaluation of regression in primary tumor and axillary LN metastasis in breast cancer patients receiving NAC. Material and Methods: The data of 89 patients with breast cancer who received NAK between January 2014 and July 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The RECIST criteria obtained by evaluating the MR images of the patients receiving NAC before and after neoadjuvant treatment were compared with the Miller and Payne grading system used to evaluate pathological regression. RECIST criteria were evaluated by a single radiologist. Results: The mean age of the patients was 48.5y, and 62% of the patients had axillary FNAB before NAC. While the mean tumor size before NAC was 36.4 mm, the mean size after NAC decreased to 13.8 mm. pCR and rCR ratios were compared according to the receptor status of the patients. Complete response rates were higher in HER2 and Triple negative tumors. The patients with pCR and rCR were compared and PPD was 78.1% and NPD was 94.7. It can be said that MR imaging is more successful in the evaluation of LN regression among subtypes after NAC, especially in patients with Luminal A and HER 2 groups. Conclusion: MR imaging has an important role in staging and treatment priority in breast cancer patients. In our study, we observed that MRI detected tumor size in 78% of patients with pCR and 94% in patients without pathological complete response, and also showed a high accuracy rate in axillary regression, especially in Luminal A and HER 2 patients.
