Abstract

There is strong evidence that cigarette smoking causes adverse outcomes in people with cancer. However, more research is needed regarding those effects and the effects of alternative tobacco products and of secondhand smoke, the effects of cessation (before diagnosis, during treatment, or during survivorship), the biologic mechanisms, and optimal strategies for tobacco dependence treatment in oncology. Fundamentally, tobacco is an important source of variation in clinical treatment trials. Nevertheless, tobacco use assessment has not been uniform in clinical trials. Progress has been impeded by a lack of consensus regarding tobacco use assessment suitable for cancer patients. The NCI-AACR Cancer Patient Tobacco Use Assessment Task Force identified priority research areas and developed recommendations for assessment items and timing of assessment in cancer research. A cognitive interview study was conducted with 30 cancer patients at the NIH Clinical Center to evaluate and improve the measurement items. The resulting Cancer Patient Tobacco Use Questionnaire (C-TUQ) includes "Core" items for minimal assessment of tobacco use at initial and follow-up time points, and an "Extension" set. Domains include the following: cigarette and other tobacco use status, intensity, and past use; use relative to cancer diagnosis and treatment; cessation approaches and history; and secondhand smoke exposure. The Task Force recommends that assessment occur at study entry and, at a minimum, at the end of protocol therapy in clinical trials. Broad adoption of the recommended measures and timing protocol, and pursuit of the recommended research priorities, will help us to achieve a clearer understanding of the significance of tobacco use and cessation for cancer patients.

20. The Washington University-Barnes Hospital experience with lung transplantation

Abstract

The earliest lung transplants were not successful, with few patients surviving more than a month. However, in the 1980s many technical problems were overcome, and lung transplants became more common and more successful. For many patients, such as those with advanced cystic fibrosis (an inherited disorder that causes mucous to build up in the lungs), chronic obstructive lung disease (diminished lung capacity from chronic bronchitis, asthma or emphysema, made worse by smoking or pollution) and emphysema (a disorder causing overinflation of the lungs, loss of lung elasticity, and other changes), there is no alternative if they are to survive at all. Sixty-nine lung transplantations at Washington University-Barnes Hospital in St. Louis were reviewed to determine the success of recipient selection, type of procedure, lung function, and overall outcome of transplants performed between July 1988 and January 1991. Patients up to the age 60 were considered. Those who were undergoing prior systemic steroid therapy tended to do worse than other patients. Previous heart or chest surgery also increased the likelihood of a poor outcome. Surgical procedures have not changed significantly since the first operations, but a broader range of patients is being treated, and greater success has been achieved with single lung transplants in patients with obstructive lung disease and emphysema. During the study period, 66 transplants were performed on 69 patients. Long-term survival after single lung transplant was 90 percent; after bilateral transplant it was 82 percent. The longest-term survivor was approaching 16 months after surgery. Although problems remain, lung transplantation is now a reasonable choice for carefully screened patients with end-stage lung disease.

Abstract

Patients who undergo surgical excision of the entire pancreas with denervation (removal of the nerve supply) of the intestine suffer severe metabolic changes. These include acute intestinal disorders (diarrhea and malabsorption) and a chronic state of diabetes due to lack of insulin and glucagon, the major hormones that regulate glucose metabolism. Following surgery, acute diarrhea and weight loss must be controlled. These patients have increased caloric needs, but this condition is not completely explained by the loss of fat in the stools. There is little information available on the metabolic characteristics of patients who have undergone total pancreatectomy, or the usefulness of medical treatment. A prospective evaluation was undertaken of 49 patients who underwent total pancreatectomy; 31 percent of these patients were followed for more than four years. The most frequent indication for surgery was cancer of the pancreas (31 of 49 patients). All the patients suffered severe, debilitating diarrhea following surgery; in most of them, this problem abated within 3 to 12 months, however, 10 percent of the patients continued to have diarrhea. Deficiencies in fat-soluble vitamins, magnesium and trace elements were prevented by administering supplements. The diabetes caused by pancreatectomy differs from spontaneously occurring adult-onset diabetes in that there is an absence of insulin and glucagon, and hypoglycemic episodes (of low blood sugar) frequently occur. This can be improved with intense home blood sugar monitoring. No patient in the study developed diabetic vascular (blood vessel) disease. Within months of surgery all patients were able to return to normal activities. In the patients who were followed for more than five years, there was an unusual frequency of liver disease and osteopenia, or decreased bone density, with diminished bone mineral content.

40. Health Policy. Fifty Years of Tobacco Control: Is the Glass Half Full or Half Empty?

Author

Steliga, Matthew A. and Dresler, Carolyn M.

Subjects
*DRUG control, *SMOKING, *LUNG tumors, *SMOKING cessation, *TOBACCO, *PREVENTION
Abstract

The authors discusses the success of tobacco control following the release of the document "Smoking and Health: Report of the Advisory Committee to the Surgeon General of the United States" chaired by Luther Terry in 1964. They provide several charts depicting the number of lung cancer deaths avoided with tobacco control policies. They emphasize the significance of integrating tobacco control into health policies.
