Pekerja industri berisiko terkena kecelakaan, kecacatan, dan kematian akibat kerja. Hasil survei dari International Labour Organization menunjukkan bahwa prevalensi terbesar penyebab kematian yang berhubungan dengan pekerjaan disebabkan oleh kanker sebesar 8%. Kanker merupakan pertumbuhan sel yang tidak terkontrol diikuti proses invasi ke jaringan sekitar dan penyebaran ke bagian tubuh yang lain. Penyakit ini diketahui berhubungan dengan lingkungan kerja salah satunya industri tekstil karena terpapar oleh zat-zat karsinogenik. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui karakteristik pasien kanker yang bekerja di industri tekstil berdasar atas usia, jenis kelamin, dan jenis kanker yang terdiagnosis di  RSUD  Bayu Asih dan RS Abdul Radjak Purwakarta tahun 2018 - 2019. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode observasional deskriptif dengan melihat data rekam medis pasien kanker di RSUD Bayu Asih dan RS Abdul Radjak Purwakarta selama periode bulan Januari 2018 – Desember 2019 dengan rancangan cross-sectional. Didapatkan kejadian kanker pada pekerja industri tekstil lebih tinggi pada perempuan 61% daripada laki-laki 39%. Berusia 46 - 55 tahun 58%, usia 36 - 45 tahun 35% dan jenis kankernya yaitu kanker paru 26%, kanker payudara 23%, dan kanker kulit 13%. Simpulan penelitian ini adalah mayoritas pekerja industri tekstil yang terdiagnosis kanker adalah perempuan, berusia 46-55 tahun, dan jenis kanker adalah kanker paru dan kanker payudara. Characteristics of Textile Industry Workers Diagnosed with Cancer in Purwakarta Industrial workers are at high risk of accidents, injuries and death due to work. The results from a survey conducted by the International Labor Organization showed that the highest prevalence of occupational causes of death was due to cancer, which was 8%. Cancer is an uncontrolled growth of cells following the invasion of surrounding tissues and spread to the other parts of the body. This diseases are known to be related to the work environment, one of which is the textile industry because they are exposed to carcinogenic substances. This study aims to find out the characteristics of cancer patients who were textile industry workers. They were categorized based on age, gender, and type of cancer diagnosed at Bayu Asih Hospital and Abdul Radjak Purwakarta Hospital in 2018 - 2019. This study used a descriptive observational method by looking at the medical record data of cancer patients at Bayu Asih Hospital and Abdul Radjak Purwakarta Hospital during from January 2019 – December 2019 with a cross sectional design. The result it was found that the incidence of cancer in textile industry workers is higher in women 61% than men 39%. 46 - 55 years old 58%, 36 - 45 years old 35% and the types of cancer are lung cancer 26%, breast cancer 23%, and skin cancer 13%. In conclusion the majority of textile industry workers diagnosed with cancer are female, aged 46 - 55 years, and the most common type of cancer is lung and breast cancer.

In the shoes industry, benzene constitute as one of the source of chemical hazard especially used in the gluing section. This compound is metabolized by the liver, forming free radicals in the body which can ultimately reduce the concentration of glutathione and increased malondialdehyde causing DNA degeneration. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between benzene concentration, excess cancer risk (ECR), malondialdehyde, glutathione, and DNA degeneration among workers in shoes industry in Osowilangun, Surabaya. This is an observational study with a cross-sectional design. The number of research samples was 25 respondents. The average concentration of benzene in workers was above the threshold (10.31 ppm). There were 15 (60%) respondents with ECR >0.0001 who experienced DNA degeneration. There was no relationship between benzene concentration, malondialdehyde, glutathione, and DNA degeneration. However, there was a relationship between benzene ECR, malondialdehyde, glutathione, and DNA degeneration in the shoe industry workers in Osowilangun.

 Background: Breast cancer is influenced by various risk factors, including age and obesity. Older women who are overweighted and obese have a higher risk of developing breast cancer. This study aims to find the correlation between age and body mass index (BMI) with histopathological features of breast cancer patients in RSUP Haji Adam Malik Medan.Methods: This research is an analytical study using a cross-sectional design with 103 samples obtained from medical record data by random sampling. The data obtained were then adjusted to the research criteria and grouped based on predetermined variables.Results: The majority of the age group was 41-50 years (36.9%), obesity BMI (40.8%), histopathological subtype of invasive carcinoma of no special type (NST) (85.4%), and grade II (46.6%). Kruskal-Wallis test result between histopathological subtypes and breast cancer grading based on age, respectively, obtained p=0.503, r=.325; (α>0.05), and p=0.207, r=0.393; (α>0.05), while based on BMI obtained p=0.017, r=0.021; (α<0.05), and p=0.018, r=0.018; (α<0.05). The OR value (95% CI) obtained on overweight-obese BMI with invasive carcinoma NST subtype was 7.63 (7.27–14.90) and other subtypes were 2.40 (1.14–13.75), and for grades II and III, they were respectively 3.57 (1.32–8.09) and 3.27 (1.17–9.91).Conclusions:  There was a correlation between BMI with histopathological subtypes and breast cancer grading, but the correlation tended to be weak. Whereas, with age, there was no correlation. BMI overweight-obese were more likely to have invasive carcinoma NST subtype and higher-grade of breast cancer.

Abstract Background The CBR3 V244M single nucleotide polymorphism has been linked to the risk of anthracycline-related cardiomyopathy in survivors of childhood cancer. There have been limited prospective studies examining the impact of CBR3 V244M on the risk for anthracycline-related cardiotoxicity in adult cohorts. Objectives This study evaluated the presence of associations between CBR3 V244M genotype status and changes in echocardiographic parameters in breast cancer patients undergoing doxorubicin treatment. Methods We recruited 155 patients with breast cancer receiving treatment with doxorubicin (DOX) at Roswell Park Comprehensive Care Center (Buffalo, NY) to a prospective single arm observational pharmacogenetic study. Patients were genotyped for the CBR3 V244M variant. 92 patients received an echocardiogram at baseline (t0 month) and at 6 months (t6 months) of follow up after DOX treatment. Apical two-chamber and four-chamber echocardiographic images were used to calculate volumes and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) using Simpson’s biplane rule by investigators blinded to all patient data. Volumetric indices were evaluated by normalizing the cardiac volumes to the body surface area (BSA). Results Breast cancer patients with CBR3 GG and AG genotypes both experienced a statistically significant reduction in LVEF at 6 months following initiation of DOX treatment for breast cancer compared with their pre-DOX baseline study. Patients homozygous for the CBR3 V244M G allele (CBR3 V244) exhibited a further statistically significant decrease in LVEF at 6 months following DOX therapy in comparison with patients with heterozygous AG genotype. We found no differences in age, pre-existing cardiac diseases associated with myocardial injury, cumulative DOX dose, or concurrent use of cardioprotective medication between CBR3 genotype groups. Conclusions CBR3 V244M genotype status is associated with changes in echocardiographic parameters suggestive of early anthracycline-related cardiomyopathy in subjects undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.

Background Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is becoming more common in medical practice, but little is known about the concurrent use of CAM and conventional treatment. Therefore, the aim was to investigate the types of CAM used and their prevalence in a regional patient cohort with breast cancer (BC). Methods BC patients were interviewed with a structured questionnaire survey on the use of CAM in southern Taiwan at an Integrative Breast Cancer Center (IBCC). The National Centre for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) classification was used to group responses. Over a period of 8 months, all patients receiving treatment for cancer at the IBCC were approached. Results A total of 106 BC patients completed the survey (response rate: 79.7%). The prevalence of CAM use was 82.4%. Patients who were employed, were receiving radiotherapy and hormone therapy, and had cancer for a longer duration were more likely to use CAM ( P < .05). Multivariate analysis identified employment as an independent predictor of CAM use (OR = 6.92; 95% CI = 1.33-36.15). Dietary supplementation (n = 69, 82.1%) was the type of CAM most frequently used, followed by exercise (n = 48, 57.1%) and traditional Chinese medicine (n = 29, 34.5%). The main reason for using CAM was to ameliorate the side effects of conventional therapies. Almost half (46.4%) of these CAM users did not disclose that they were using it in medical consultations with their physicians. Most chose to use CAM due to recommendations from family and friends. Conclusion A large portion of BC patients at the IBCC undergoing anti-cancer treatment courses used CAM, but less than half discussed it with their physicians. Given the high prevalence of CAM, it would be justifiable to direct further resources toward this service so that cancer patients can benefit from a holistic approach to their treatment.

BACKGROUND: Cancer is a disease caused by abnormal growth of body cells that turn malignant and continue to grow uncontrollably. One of the treatments for breast cancer is mastectomy. The quickness of decision-making determines the survival rate of prognosis patients. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the relationship of self-acceptance with decision-making duration in cancer patients to perform a mastectomy. METHODS: An analytic observation method with cross-sectional design. The samples were taken by purposive sampling method with 50 samples of breast cancer patients. Data collected include age, last level of education, marital status, profession, stage of cancer during mastectomy, self-acceptance score, and decision-making duration to perform a mastectomy. RESULTS: The data analyzed with the Kruskal–Wallis test. The test showed the relationship of self-acceptance (p = 0.027) with decision-making duration in breast cancer patients to perform a mastectomy. CONCLUSION: In Conclusion, there is a relationship of self-acceptance with decision-making duration in breast cancer patients to perform a mastectomy.

(1) Background: Evidence suggests that organizational processes of hospitals have an impact on patient-professional interactions. Within the nurse-patient interaction, nurses play a key role providing social support. Factors influencing the nurse-patient interaction have seldomly been researched. We aimed to examine whether the process organization in hospitals is associated with breast cancer patients’ perceived social support from nurses.; (2) Methods: Data analysis based on a cross-sectional patient survey (2979 breast cancer patients, 83 German hospitals) and information on hospital structures. Associations between process organization and perceived social support were analyzed with logistic hierarchical regression models adjusted for patient characteristics and hospital structures.; (3) Results: Most patients were 40–69 years old and classified with UICC stage II or III. Native language, age and hospital ownership status showed significant associations to the perception of social support. Patients treated in hospitals with better process organization at admission (OR 3.61; 95%-CI 1.67, 7.78) and during the hospital stay (OR 2.11; 95%-CI 1.04; 4.29) perceived significantly more social support from nurses.; (4) Conclusions: Designing a supportive nursing work environment and improving process organization in hospitals may create conditions conducive for a supportive patient-nurse interaction. More research is needed to better understand mechanisms behind the associations found.
