Abstract

Background

Key molecules in the T helper (Th)1 and Th2 pathways underlie differential responses to the progression and surgical treatment of cancer. We investigated the relationship between Th1/Th2 cytokine polymorphism and prognosis in patients with thoracic esophageal squamous cell cancer.

Materials and Methods

The study participants were 159 Japanese patients treated for thoracic esophageal squamous cell cancer with curative esophagectomy at Akita University Hospital. We determined the associations between prognosis following esophagectomy and genetic polymorphisms in Th1 cytokines (interleukin [IL]-2, Interferon-γ, IL-12β), and Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-10).

Results

IL-2 −330T>G genetic polymorphism was significantly associated with prognosis after esophagectomy. Univariate and multivariate analyses using a Cox proportional hazards model revealed that patients carrying the IL-2 −330G/G genotype had a significantly poorer prognosis than those carrying the T/G or T/T genotype. However, IL-2 −330T>G polymorphism was not associated with preoperative serum IL-2 levels. Moreover, interferon-γ, IL-12β, IL-4, and IL-10 genetic polymorphisms were not associated with prognosis after esophagectomy for thoracic esophageal squamous cell cancer.

Conclusions

It is suggested that IL-2 −330T>G genetic polymorphism may be a predictive factor for prognosis in patients receiving esophagectomy for thoracic esophageal squamous cell cancer.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

Radiusfraktur BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Webinar beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
