Radiation-Related Risk of Cancers of the Upper Digestive Tract among Japanese Atomic Bomb Survivors

Journal Article Sakata, Ritsu ; Preston, Dale L. ; Brenner, Alina V. ; ... - Radiation Research

As a follow-up to the comprehensive work on solid cancer incidence in the Life Span Study (LSS) cohort of atomic bomb survivors between 1958 and 1998, we report here on updated radiation risk estimates for upper digestive tract cancers. In this study, we added 11 years of follow-up (1958–2009), used improved radiation dose estimates, considered effects of smoking and alcohol consumption and performed dose-response analyses by anatomical sub-site. In examining 52 years'worth of data, we ascertained the occurrence of 394 oral cavity/pharyngeal cancers, 486 esophageal cancers and 5,661 stomach cancers among 105,444 subjects. The radiation risk for oral cavity/pharyngeal cancer,more »« less

Impact of Preoperative Radiotherapy on General and Disease-Specific Health Status of Rectal Cancer Survivors: A Population-Based Study

Journal Article Thong, Melissa S.Y., E-mail: M.Thong@uvt.nl ; Comprehensive Cancer Centre South, Eindhoven ; Mols, Floortje ; ... - International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology and Physics

Purpose: To date, few studies have evaluated the impact of preoperative radiotherapy (pRT) on long-term health status of rectal cancer survivors. Using a population-based sample, we assessed the impact of pRT on general and disease-specific health status of rectal cancer survivors up to 10 years postdiagnosis. The health status of older ({>=}75 years old at diagnosis) pRT survivors was also compared with that of younger survivors. Methods and Materials: Survivors identified from the Eindhoven Cancer Registry treated with surgery only (SU) or with pRT between 1998 and 2007 were included. Survivors completed the Short Form-36 (SF-36) health survey questionnaire andmore »« less

Health-Related Quality of Life in Cervical Cancer Survivors: A Population-Based Survey

Journal Article Korfage, Ida J. ; Essink-Bot, Marie-Louise ; Department of Social Medicine, Academic Medical Centre, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam ; ... - International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology and Physics

Purpose: In a population-based sample of cervical cancer survivors, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was assessed 2-10 years postdiagnosis. Methods and Materials: All patients given a diagnosis of cervical cancer in 1995-2003 in the Eindhoven region, The Netherlands, and alive after Jan 2006 were identified through the cancer registry. Generic HRQoL (36-Item Short-Form Health Survey, EQ-5D), cervical cancer-specific HRQoL (European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality-of-Life questionnaire cervical cancer module), and anxiety (6-item State Trait Anxiety Inventory) were assessed and compared with a reference population (n = 349). Data for tumor characteristics at diagnosis and disease progression weremore »« less

A 50-year follow-up of the long-term consequences of childhood plumbism. 2. Knowledge of diagnosis and reproductive history among survivors

Conference Hu, H ; Potter, N

The long-term health effects of childhood lead poisoning are incompletely explored. The authors identified a group of subjects for whom it was documented during 1930-1942 that they had lead poisoning. History of pica, typical symptoms, and typical long bone x-ray findings were the sources of documentation. With the assistance of public records survivors who reside in Massachusetts were traced. Thirty-five were successfully recruited to participate in this portion of the study. The results of this pilot project suggest that women with a history of childhood lead poisoning are at risk for having children who manifest learning disabilities and possibly atmore »« less
