Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the psychological well-being of parents of pediatric oncology patients two years after the pandemic started. The authors' objective was to make a detailed comparison between the data collected in the current study and the data gathered in the previous research with the aim of observing any changes, whether for better or worse, at the psychological level in the caregivers of the patients in question. This research could be of great use for monitoring the psychological health of the sample and for being able to intervene promptly in the event of the worsening of the reported symptoms. Background: Family members dealing with the devastating impact of a cancer diagnosis are now facing even greater vulnerability due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Alongside the already overwhelming trauma, they must also bear the distressing burden of the infection risks. The purpose of this study was to examine and explore the effects in parents of pediatric cancer patients two years after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic to compare these data with the previous data. Methods: We conducted a single-center prospective observational study, enrolling 75 parents of 42 pediatric oncology patients. Four questionnaires (IES-R; PSS; STAI-Y and PedsQL) were given to the parents 2 years after the first evaluation. Results: The bivariate matrix of correlation found a strong significant positive correlation between IES-R and PSS scores (r = 0.526, p < 0.001) as in T1. Stress symptoms (t = 0.00, p < 0.001) and levels of anxiety (trait) (t = 0.32, p < 0.001) remained unchanged; anxiety state levels appeared to have increased (t = 0.425, p < 0.001); there was a significant decrease in the PedsQL tot (t = 5.25, p < 0.001). Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic has influenced the levels of stress and anxiety of parents and the quality of life of patients, also correlating with the traumatic impact of the diagnosis.

Abstract

This study investigated whether radiomic features extracted from pretreatment [18F]FDG PET could improve the prediction of both histopathologic tumor response and survival in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery compared with conventional PET parameters and histopathologic features. Methods: The medical records of all consecutive patients with LACC referred between July 2010 and July 2016 were reviewed. [18F]FDG PET/CT was performed before neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Radiomic features were extracted from the primary tumor volumes delineated semiautomatically on the PET images and reduced by factor analysis. A receiver-operating-characteristic analysis was performed, and conventional and radiomic features were dichotomized with Liu's method according to pathologic response (pR) and cancer-specific death. According to the study protocol, only areas under the curve of more than 0.70 were selected for further analysis, including logistic regression analysis for response prediction and Cox regression analysis for survival prediction. Results: A total of 195 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. At pathologic evaluation after surgery, 131 patients (67.2%) had no or microscopic (≤3 mm) residual tumor (pR0 or pR1, respectively); 64 patients (32.8%) had macroscopic residual tumor (>3 mm, pR2). With a median follow-up of 76.0 mo (95% CI, 70.7-78.7 mo), 31.3% of patients had recurrence or progression and 20.0% died of the disease. Among conventional PET parameters, SUVmean significantly differed between pathologic responders and nonresponders. Among radiomic features, 1 shape and 3 textural features significantly differed between pathologic responders and nonresponders. Three radiomic features significantly differed between presence and absence of recurrence or progression and between presence and absence of cancer-specific death. Areas under the curve were less than 0.70 for all param

Abstract

Introduction: Historically, multimodal therapeutic strategies involving preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT), surgery, and adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) have been employed to treat locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Total Neoadjuvant Therapy (TNT) is showing promise in improving outcomes. Despite its benefits, the optimal sequencing within TNT—whether induction chemotherapy should precede or follow chemoradiotherapy—remains a critical question. This study endeavors to explore the effects of different TNT sequencing strategies on patient outcomes, including tumor downstaging, pathological response, organ preservation, and the balance between efficacy and tolerability. Methods: Our methodology entailed a comprehensive literature review conducted on Medline, focusing on recent research, including retrospective studies, systematic reviews, and clinical trials. The review emphasized the comparison of induction chemotherapy versus consolidation chemotherapy within TNT regimens, assessing outcomes such as pathological response, organ preservation rates, and adverse effects. To ensure the selection of appropriate and high‐quality studies, specific inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied. Results: The analysis revealed that induction chemotherapy might lead to decreased adherence to subsequent chemoradiotherapy while offering an early intervention against micrometastasis and potentially improving overall chemotherapy compliance. Conversely, consolidation chemotherapy has been associated with higher pathological complete response (pCR) rates and improved tolerability, indicating its potential for patients requiring local symptom relief or those eligible for a nonoperative management approach. Comparative studies like CAO/ARO/AIO‐12 and the OPRA trials have significantly contributed to our understanding, suggesting that while both strategies have distinct advantages, the choice between induction and consolidation chemotherapy should be tailored based on individual patient profiles and tumor characteristics. Conclusion: This narrative review underscores the importance of a nuanced approach to TNT sequencing in locally advanced rectal cancer, highlighting the need for further research to refine treatment strategies.
