RESUMO
Ovarian cancer is the third most frequent gynaecological malignancy worldwide and in Mexico, with a high mortality rate, due to that in many cases its diagnosis is made in advanced stages. Prognosis is important for determining the subtype and the degree of evolution. During lasts years, the management of ovarian cancer has undergone an important evolution with the incorporation of new therapeutic options, which in turn represent an increase in the survival of these patients. We present recommendations for the management of ovarian cancer developed by an expert panel Mexican based on available evidence so far and the characteristics of health care in the country.

Molecular profile of breast cancer in Latin-American women was studied in five countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Uruguay. Data about socioeconomic characteristics, risk factors, prognostic factors, and molecular subtypes were described, and the 60-month overall cumulative survival probabilities (OS) were estimated. From 2011 to 2013, 1,300 eligible Latin-American women 18 years or older, with a diagnosis of breast cancer in clinical stage II or III, and performance status â¦Ì¸1 were invited to participate in a prospective cohort study. Face-to-face interviews were conducted, and clinical and outcome data, including death, were extracted from medical records. Unadjusted associations were evaluated by Chi-squared and Fisher's exact tests and the OS by Kaplan-Meier method. Log-rank test was used to determine differences between cumulative probability curves. Multivariable adjustment was carried out by entering potential confounders in the Cox regression model. The OS at 60 months was 83.9%. Multivariable-adjusted death hazard differences were found for women living in Argentina (2.27), Chile (1.95), and Uruguay (2.42) compared with Mexican women, for older (≥60 years) (1.84) compared with younger (≤40 years) women, for basal-like subtype (5.8), luminal B (2.43), and HER2-enriched (2.52) compared with luminal A subtype, and for tumor clinical stages IIB (1.91), IIIA (3.54), and IIIB (3.94) compared with stage IIA women. OS was associated with country of residence, PAM50 intrinsic subtype, age, and tumor stage at diagnosis. While the latter is known to be influenced by access to care, including cancer screening, timely diagnosis and treatment, including access to more effective treatment protocols, it may also influence epigenetic changes that, potentially, impact molecular subtypes. Data derived from heretofore understudied populations with unique geographic ancestry and sociocultural experiences are critical to furthering our understanding of this complexity.
RESUMO
Objetivo:El cáncer de mama (CAM) es un problema de salud pública mundial. La ansiedad y depresión son las principales comorbilidades que aquejan a este sector, el programa psicoeducativo de navegación (PPN) se presenta como una estrategia psicosocial eficaz en hospitales públicos de México. Método: Se realizó la adaptación del PPN y la evaluación de eficacia en 47 mujeres con CAM de tres hospitales de la Zona Metropolitana de Guadalajara. El PPN integró acompañamiento emocional, educación para la salud y técnicas de relajación. Se evaluaron los síntomas y los niveles de ansiedad y depresión, pre-post intervención con la Escala Hospitalaria de Ansiedad y Depresión (HADS). Resultados: Se encontró una disminución en los síntomas de ansiedad pre-test (M= 6,79, DT= 4,01) y pos-test (M= 4,19, DT= 3,03), igual que en los síntomas de depresión antes (M= 6,02, DT= 4,07) y después (M= 4,23, DT= 3,05). Se obtuvieron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre las evaluaciones pre y post intervención tanto en las dimensiones, como en la puntuación global (p<0,001). Conclusiones: El PPN mostró eficacia para disminuir los síntomas y los niveles de ansiedad y depresión en mujeres mexicanas con CAM. Sugerimos replicar el programa en otros contextos de atención oncológica en seguimiento a las normativas nacionales (AU)
Objective: Breast cancer (BC) is a public health problem. Anxiety and depression are the main comorbidities that afflict this sector, the navigation psychoeducational program (NPP) is presented as an effective psychosocial strategy in public hospitals in Mexico.Method: The NPP was adapted and its efficacy evaluated in 47 women with BC from three hospitals in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area. The NPP integrated emotional accompaniment, health education and relaxation techniques. Symptoms and levels of anxiety and depression were evaluated pre-post intervention with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Results: A decrease was found in anxiety symptoms pre-test (M= 6.79, SD= 4.01) and post-test (M= 4.19, SD= 3.03), the same as in depression symptoms before (M= 6.02, SD= 4.07) and after (M= 4.23, SD= 3.05). Statistically significant differences were obtained between the pre- and post-intervention evaluations both in the dimensions and in the global score (p<0.001).Conclusions: The NPP showed efficacy in reducing symptoms and levels of anxiety and depression in Mexican women with BC. We suggest replicating the program in other cancer care contexts in compliance with national regulations (AU)
