Abstract

Introduction: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in the management of muscle-invasive bladder carcinoma has not been adopted universally. We studied the oncological outcomes and complications in patients who underwent radical cystectomy (RC) with or without NAC. Methods: A retrospective review of patients who underwent RC with or without NAC from June 2009 to June 2020 was conducted. Oncological outcomes, overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS), complications, and prognostic factors were analyzed. Results: Of the 314 patients who underwent RC, 83 patients received NAC (Group A), and 231 underwent RC alone (Group B). The median age was 58 years. The median follow-up duration was 22 (3-64) and 24 (3-62) months, respectively. The median OS in Group A was significantly higher than Group B (38 months [confidence interval (CI): 34-42] and 32 [CI: 29-35], respectively, [P = 0.033]). The RFS in Groups A and B was 34 (CI: 30-39) and 31 (CI: 28-34) months, respectively (P = 0.47). Higher pathological T stage (T3/4), node positivity and lymphovascular invasion (LVI) were predictors of poor OS and RFS (P < 0.0001). Clavien grades 3/4 complications were comparable (8 vs. 15; P = 0.19). Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) Conclusion: The OS with NAC was superior to upfront RC. RFS was, however, comparable. NAC was safe and well-tolerated. Pathologically, higher T stage, node positivity, and LVI were associated with poorer OS and RFS. Low GFR negatively influenced postoperative complications., Author(s): E Selvin Theodore Jayanth [1]; Subhash L. Jat [1]; Benedict P.

Abstract

Objective: To determine whether the combined intervention of 5000OlU vitamin A administered together with Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccination at birth was associated with adverse events, in particular bulging fontanels and adverse reactions to BCG. Subjects/Methods: From an ongoing trial, 2145 infants randomized to 500001U vitamin A or placebo with BCG vaccination were recruited. Adverse events were monitored in two different ways: (A) daily clinical examinations by a medical doctor during the first 3 days post supplementation; (B) weekly interviews by a trained assistant during the first month post supplementation. Results: In part A, 1271 infants were enrolled, in part B 2078. Vitamin A supplementation (VAS) was associated with a relative risk (RR) of bulging fontanels of 1.16 (95% confidence interval (CI)=0.82-1.65). The rate of health care contacts and various symptoms during the first month were comparable between the groups. VAS was associated with larger peak local reactions to BCG vaccination in boys, but not in girls (P-value for test of interaction between VAS and sex= 0.02). Conclusion: 50000 IU vitamin A with BCG was not associated with adverse events. The observed sex-differential effect of VAS on local reaction to BCG is in line with other observations of sex-differential effects of VAS. doi:10.1038/sj.ejcn.1602796; published online 30 May 2007 Keywords: adverse events; vitamin A; BCG vaccination; fontanel; randomized control trial; dosage and administration, Introduction Two Asian studies reported vitamin A supplementation (VAS) at birth to be associated with decreased mortality (Humphrey et al., 1996; Rahmathullah et al., 2003).
