Abstract

Background

As the most abundant tumor-infiltrating immune cells, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are significant for fostering tumor progression. CD68+ TAMs display diversely polarized programs comprising CD11c+ proinflammatory macrophages (M1) and CD206+ immunosuppressive macrophages (M2). The aim of this study was to determine the survival impact of diametrically polarized TAMs in clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and their application to stratification of patients according to their prognostic values.

Methods

The study included 185 consecutive patients with ccRCC who underwent nephrectomy between 1999 and 2001. CD68+ total and diametrically polarized (CD11c+ M1 and CD206+ M2) TAM densities were assessed by immunohistochemistry, and the relationships with clinicopathologic features and prognosis were evaluated.

Results

Low CD11c+ TAM density and high CD206+ TAM density were associated with reduced cancer-specific survival (P = 0.043 and P = 0.017, respectively), whereas CD68+ TAM density only had borderline prognostic significance (P = 0.062). Furthermore, combined analysis of CD11c+ and CD206+ TAMs (CD11c/CD206 signature) had a better power to predict patients’ outcome (P = 0.010). Together with TNM stage, tumor necrosis, and performance status, CD11c/CD206 signature was an independent prognostic factor (P = 0.010). When applied to the University of California Integrated Staging System intermediate-/high-risk group for localized ccRCC, CD11c/CD206 signature could further distinguish patients with dismal prognosis (P = 0.004).

Conclusions

Intratumoral balance of diametrically polarized TAMs is a novel independent predictor for survival in patients with ccRCC. Tipping the balance toward an antitumoral phenotype might be a promising target of postoperative adjuvant therapy.

Recycling im OP – möglich, aber teuer

02.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Auch wenn sich Krankenhäuser nachhaltig und grün geben – sie tragen aktuell erheblich zu den CO2-Emissionen bei und produzieren jede Menge Müll. Ein Pilotprojekt aus Bonn zeigt, dass viele Op.-Abfälle wiederverwertet werden können.

Proximale Humerusfraktur: Auch 100-Jährige operieren?

01.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Mit dem demographischen Wandel versorgt auch die Chirurgie immer mehr betagte Menschen. Von Entwicklungen wie Fast-Track können auch ältere Menschen profitieren und bei proximaler Humerusfraktur können selbst manche 100-Jährige noch sicher operiert werden.

Sind Frauen die fähigeren Ärzte?

30.04.2024 Gendermedizin Nachrichten

Patienten, die von Ärztinnen behandelt werden, dürfen offenbar auf bessere Therapieergebnisse hoffen als Patienten von Ärzten. Besonders gilt das offenbar für weibliche Kranke, wie eine Studie zeigt.

Gegen postoperative Darmmotilitätsstörung: Erster Kaffee schon im Aufwachraum

30.04.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Nach einer Operation kann es zu einer vorübergehenden Störung der Darmmotilität kommen, ohne dass es eine mechanische Ursache gibt. Auf eine postoperative Darmmotilitätsstörung weist besonders hin, wenn Nahrung oral nicht toleriert wird.

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.

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?
