Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the influence of self-esteem and sexual communication on sexual satisfaction among female colorectal cancer patients with ostomy.Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted using self-reported online questionnaires. The participants were 85 women with colorectal cancer who had undergone ostomy formation surgery. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the t-test, analysis of variance, the Scheffé test, correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression with SPSS version 26.0.Results: The mean sexual satisfaction score was 2.79±0.73 (range, 0~5). There was no significant relationship between self-esteem and sexual satisfaction. Sexual communication had a significant correlation with sexual satisfaction (r=.83, p<.001) and was a strong predictor of sexual satisfaction (β=.83, p<.001).Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that colorectal cancer patients with ostomy experience low sexual satisfaction and that sexual communication is a meaningful factor for sexual satisfaction. Accordingly, nurses need to factor in sexual issues when caring for patients, and should encourage both patients and their partners to participate in education related to sexual health. It will also be helpful to inform patients about the importance of sexual communication with their partners as a sustainable intervention.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer is the third most common type of cancer in the world and the increased survival of the colorectal cancer population is very significant. Thus, it becomes relevant to study the symptoms associated with the progression of the disease and treatment, for proper clinical management. OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical and epidemiological profile of colorectal cancer patients and to identify the most prevalent signs and symptoms patterns. METHODS: Cross-sectional study evaluating the prevalence of symptoms in 348 colorectal cancer patients admitted to a referral oncology hospital. We applied MSAS-BR scale and, through factor analysis with principal componente analysys, we performed the grouping of symptoms. RESULTS: There was a predominance of men, aged 60 years or older, married, white, with high school, moderately differentiated tumor, stage III/IV disease, colon cancer and no distant metastasis. The most prevalent symptoms were weight loss (67.53%) and the least prevalent were mouth sores (2.01%). The groupings of symptoms established were “fatigue and psychic symptoms”, “gastrointestinal symptoms”, “self-perceptive symptoms” and “general symptoms”, which described 80% of the symptoms presented. CONCLUSION: We evidenced the importance of identifying these symptoms clusters in order to improve strategies for clinical management in patients with colorectal cancer.

Abstract Background: Metabolic syndrome and obesity are risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and/or cardiovascular disease, especially stroke. Obesity-associated diseases account for a large portion of public health challenges. Among obesity-related disorders, a direct and independent relationship has been ascertained for colorectal cancer. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and other cardiovascular risk factors, including dyslipidemia, hypertension, dietary and exercise practices, tobacco use and body mass index in individual with colorectal cancer patients attending Tikur Anbessa Hospital Oncology department, Addis Ababa.Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted from February, 2016 to Jun 2017 on 79 patients attending the Oncology clinic at Tikur Anbessa Hospital. Components of metabolic syndrome, including fasting serum glucose, serum triglyceride, serum high density lipoprotein, blood pressure and waist circumference, was measured in all of the patients. In addition, serum total cholesterol, serum low density lipoprotein was measured with 5010 photometers, and information gathered on smoking and other lifestyle practices, including diet and exercise.Result: Of 79 patients, 23 had metabolic syndrome (MS); 58.2% males; mean-age 48.6 years with range (26 to 78) and 41.8 % Female; mean age 44.6 years with range (20 to 78). Among the MS group, 45.6 % had high blood pressure, 26.6 % had increased waist circumference, 67.1% had serum blood glucose level greater than 100 mg/dL, 68.3 % had low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level, 57 % had increased triglyceride level, and 3.8 % were obese [body mass index (BMI) >30 kg/m2]. 29 % presented 3 criteria of MS. From total colorectal cancer patients 53.2 % had colon cancer, 46.8 % had rectal cancer and 12.7 % had stage I,40.5 % had stage II (IIa,IIb & IIc), 25.3 % had stage III (a,b,c) and 21.5 % had stage IV disease.CONCLUSION: MS is positively associated with adenomas and colorectal cancer. However, there is not enough information in Ethiopia to justify screening in patients with MS. To our knowledge, no previous study has evaluated this association in Ethiopian patients.

Abstract: Globally, colorectal cancer is the 4th cause of deaths. Risk factors of colorectal cancer are divided into modified and unmodified; obesity is one of the modified factors. It is accepted that insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction act as a link between obesity and colorectal cancer. Distribution of fat tissue in Asian including Indonesian differs from that in Western people. Although of the same body mass index (BMI), Asian have higher fat tissue level than the Westerns. Body fat tissue can be measured by using BMI, waist circumference (WC), and waist-hip ratio (WHR). Acurate anthropometric measurements play some important roles in prevention of colorectal cancer. This study aimed to compare the three anthropometric parameters in colorectal cancer patients. This was a descriptive analytical study with a cross sectional design. Subjects were colorectal patients admitted to Surgery Department of Sam Ratulangi University Manado and its collaborationg hospitals from June 2015 to December 2015. There were 33 colorectal cancer patients in this study consisted of 22 males and 11 females. The ages ranged from 27 years to 77 years. The sensitivity result was as follows: BMI 33.3%, WC 51%, and WHR 42%, meanwhile the specifity result was 75.80%; 60.60%; and 60.60% respectively. The X2 test showed a P value of 0.327. Conclusion: Statistically, BMI, WC, and WHR showed no significant difference as the risk factors of colorectal cancer. However, the three parameters have to be used together to detect the accumulation of body fat tissue. It is suggested that the detection has to be applied in primary health care to diminish the colorectal cancer risk.Keywords: colorectal cancer, BMI, WC, WHRAbstrak: Kanker kolorektal (KKR) merupakan penyebab kematian keempat terbanyak di dunia. Secara garis besar faktor risiko KKR terbagi atas yang tidak dapat dimodifikasi dan yang dapat dimodifikasi, salah satunya ialah obesitas. Resistensi insulin dan disfungsi metabolik menjadi penghubung antara obesitas dan karsinoma kolorektal. Distribusi lemak tubuh pada orang Asia, termasuk Indonesia, berbeda dengan distribusi lemak tubuh pada orang Barat. Pada indeks massa tubuh (IMT) yang sama, orang Asia memiliki kadar lemak tubuh yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan orang Barat. Kadar lemak tubuh dapat dinilai melalui pengukuran IMT, lingkar pinggang (LP), dan rasio pinggang-pinggul (RPP). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan ketiga parameter ukuran antropometri tubuh pada pasien KKR. Penentuan patokan antropometri tubuh yang tepat membantu tindakan preventif KKR. Jenis penelitian ialah deskriptif analitik dengan desain potong lintang. Subyek penelitian ialah pasien KKR yang dirawat di Bagian Bedah Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Sam Ratulangi Manado dan RS jejaringnya sejak bulan Juni 2015-Desember 2015. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan 33 pasien KKR (22 laki-laki dan 11 perempuan). Usia pasien berkisar 27-77 tahun. Sensitivitas IMT ialah 33,3%; LP 51%; dan RPP 42%, sedangkan spesifisitas berturut-turut ialah 75,80%; 60,60%; dan 60,60%. Uji X2 mendapatkan nilai P = 0,327. Simpulan: IMT, LP, dan RPP secara statistik tidak menunjukkan perbedaan bermakna sebagai faktor risiko KKR. Ketiganya harus diukur bersama-sama untuk mendeteksi akumulasi lemak tubuh. Disarankan deteksi harus dimulai di pelayanan primer untuk mengurangi risiko KKR.Kata kunci: KKR, IMT, LP, RPP
