1.Preliminary assessment of adverse side effects of some procedure of chemotherapy against malignancy of hemopoietic organs
Journal of Practical Medicine 2003;463(10):44-46
Most of chemical drafts that treatment malignant disease at blood- forming organs have side effects as: reduce aleukemia, glomerule, blood pigment, increase ure, creatinin or nauseate, voltmit, lose hair. However, rate and level are different in each of drafts. The other drafts, that made side effects are Doxorubicin + Ara.C (P3), MOPP (P2), CHOP (P1) and VAD (P4). Ara.C + Depersolon (P7), Hydrea + Ara.C (P6) drafts and especially is only use single Hydrea dafts that has little side-effect

Disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis, a variant of porokeratosis, is an uncommon, hereditary or acquired keratinization disorder. It is characterized histologically by cornoid lamella and clinically by central atrophy with elevated borders. Porokeratosis lesions may be triggered by UV light exposure, infection, hematopoietic malignancies, or immunosuppression, but are rarely reported associated with malignancies of visceral organs. We herein report an unusual case of a patient with colon cancer who noted sudden exacerbation of a previously unrecognized disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis lesion after being treated with chemotherapy.

Behcet's disease has rarely been reported in association with malignant diseases. In most cases the autoimmune nature of the disease itself or immunosuppressive drug use has been blamed for malignant transformation. Solid tumors in addition to lymphoid and hematological malignancies are also seen during the course of Behcet's disease. We present here a case of colon cancer in a 40-year-old man with Behcet's disease. A near total colectomy was performed and postoperative chemotherapy and radiotherapy was administered to treat visceral peritoneal invasion. Recurrent evidence was not found. We present the clinical details of this rare case of colon cancer with Behcet's disease.

PURPOSE: This study was designed to evaluate the effects of a discharge education program for hospitalized readmitted patients with chemotherapy-in terms of sick role behavior and educational satisfaction. METHODS: The data were collected with a nonequivalent control group non-synchronized design and were analyzed with a nonequivalent control group pre-posttest design. The subjects included 49 patients with cancer, 25 in the experimental group, and 24 in the control group. Data were analyzed with spss win 21, chi2-tests, paired t-tests, and independent t-tests. RESULTS: The experimental group was educated according to their needs at discharge, and they showed higher compliance with sick role behavior. CONCLUSION: To improve compliance with sick role behavior, readmitted hematologic neoplasms chemotherapy patients should receive discharge education according to their needs at the clinic by using an educational manual.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the changing patterns of nausea, vomiting, anorexia and calorie intake. To examine the influence of those variables on the nutritional status of the cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. METHOD: To assess nutritional status, anthropometry and blood test were performed on 94 stomach cancer patients receiving postoperational chemotherapy on the daily basis. NVA and calorie intake were measured during chemotherapy. RESULT: 93% of subjects had low level of hemoglobin and 45.7% was below the lymphocyte count. 57% of subjects lost 10% of usual weight. The value of anthropometry was reduced but the difference between pre- and post-chemotherapy did not reach any statistical significance. 27% of subjects was grouped into the malnutritional state. During chemotherapy, the higher the degree of NVA, the less calorie intake. The significant predictors for nutritional status were nausea and calorie intake. CONCLUSION: The chemotherapy affected the food intake of cancer patients through NVA. Though the influence of chemotherapy on anthropopmetry was not significant in this research, nausea and food intake were the most affecting factors for nutrition of cancer patients. Therefore we need to assess nutritional status and support for cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and to develop an intervention for improvement of symptoms and food intake.
