Breastfeeding and Maternal Health Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
ConclusionReview supports the hypothesis that breastfeeding is protective against breast and ovarian carcinoma and exclusive/predominant breastfeeding increase duration of lactation amenorrhoea. There is evidence that breastfeeding reduce the risk of type‐2 diabetes. However, an association between breastfeeding and bone mineral density or maternal depression or postpartum weight change was not evident.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Health effects of breastfeeding on the mother.
Abstract We evaluated the effect of breastfeeding on maternal health outcomes. We distinguished between long-term effects (breast carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, endometrial carcinoma, osteoporosis, and type 2 diabetes mellitus) and short-term effects (lactational amenorrhea, postpartum depression, and postpartum weight change).Predominant breastfeeding increases the duration of lactational amenorrhea, which has a short-term effect on the reduction of fertility. There are many studies that show that breastfeeding is protective against breast, ovarian carcinoma, and endometrial carcinoma. The effects depend on the ...

Breastfeeding: a reproductive factor able to reduce the risk of luminal B breast cancer in premenopausal White women
In the medical literature, the role of breastfeeding and reproductive factors in the risk of breast carcinoma is still an open debate in premenopausal women. We highlight the role of breastfeeding and reproductive factors in luminal A and luminal B, the most frequent breast cancers. This case–control study analyzes a White premenopausal population of 286 breast cancer patients, divided into molecular subtypes, and 578 controls matched by age. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to assess the relationships of breastfeeding and other reproductive factors (age at menarche, parity, age at first pregnancy, numbe...

Building a gold standard to construct search filters: a case study with biomarkers for oral cancer.
CONCLUSIONS: The gold standard dataset is likely to be high quality and useful for future development and evaluation of filters for OSCC studies of potential prognostic biomarkers. IMPLICATIONS: The methodology we used is generalizable to other domains requiring a reference standard to evaluate the performance of search filters. A gold standard is essential because the labels regarding relevance enable computation of diagnostic metrics, such as sensitivity and specificity. Librarians and informationists with data analysis skills could contribute to developing gold standard datasets and subsequent filters tuned for thei...

Characterizing Diagnostic Search Patterns in Digital Breast Pathology: Scanners and Drillers
AbstractFollowing a baseline demographic survey, 87 pathologists interpreted 240 digital whole slide images of breast biopsy specimens representing a range of diagnostic categories from benign to atypia, ductal carcinoma in situ, and invasive cancer. A web-based viewer recorded pathologists ’ behaviors while interpreting a subset of 60 randomly selected and randomly ordered slides. To characterize diagnostic search patterns, we used the viewport location, time stamp, and zoom level data to calculate four variables: average zoom level, maximum zoom level, zoom level variance, and scan ning percentage. Two distinct search ...

Cellular mesenchymal epithelial transition (C-MET) gene copy number variation in gastric adenocarcinoma: A pilot search for new marker for targeted therapy in HER-2/neu resistance.
Abstract Increasing HER-2/neu resistance in gastric carcinoma has encouraged search for new biomarkers for targeted therapy. Cellular mesenchymal epithelial transition (C-MET) is one such tyrosine kinase inhibitor proposed for personalized salvage treatment. We determined frequency of C-MET gene copy number variation (CNV) by Fluorescent in-situ hybridization (FISH) in gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) and sought its correlation with conventional clinicopathologic parameters. Dual-coloured FISH was done on 32 GAC cases. C-MET gene and centromere 7 signals were counted under fluorescent microscope and ratio was calculat...

Performance of 18 F-FDG-PET/CT as a next step in the search of occult primary tumors for patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions18F-FDG PET/CT is useful as a next step in the search of occult primary tumors in HNSCC-UP patients defined by endoscopy with or without CT/MRI. However, in light of the high false-positive proportion, confirmatory histological investigations should be viewed as necessary practice upon positive PET/CT findings.
