Patterns and predictors of end‐of‐life care in older patients with pancreatic cancer
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Cancer Medicine"
DOI: 10.1002/cam4.1861
Abstract: Little is known about end‐of‐life care among patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We used the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results‐Medicare linked database to analyze patterns of hospice use and end‐of‐life treatment in patients with PDAC. read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jso.26854
Abstract: There is little data on the correlation between the reduction in fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG‐PET) radioactive accumulation and carbohydrate antigen 19‐9 (CA19‐9) levels with pathological tumor responses (PTRs) and prognosis after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jso.27121
Abstract: Selecting frail elderly patients with pancreatic cancer (PC) for pancreas resection using biologic age has not been elucidated. This study determined the feasibility of the deficit accumulation frailty index (DAFI) in identifying such patients and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/rcm.8183
Abstract: Rationale Diagnosis of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours requires the study of patient plasma with multiple immunoassays, using multiple aliquots of plasma. The application of mass spectrometry based techniques could reduce the cost and amount of plasma… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00520-022-06887-w
Abstract: It is plausible that patients with pancreatic cancer experience fear of tumor recurrence or progression (FOP). The aim of this study was to compare FOP in patients with pancreatic cancer treated with surgical resection, palliative… read more here.
