This study used a descriptive research design with a cross-sectional approach. This research was conducted at RSUD Sanjiwani Gianyar which was conducted from July to November 2019. The sample taken in this study must meet the inclusion criteria. This study uses secondary data in the form of patient medical records at Sanjiwani Gianyar Regional Hospital in 2018-2019. The research variables consisted of independent variables in the form of glomerular filtration rate and dependent variables in the form of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Data processing and analysis were carried out using computerized techniques with computer devices. Data analysis was carried out using univariate analysis used to analyze descriptively by calculating the frequency distribution of each research variable. The results of the research of 50 people with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the majority of respondents of LFG grade were grade 3 with a total of 18 people (36.0%) and grade 1 as many as 15 people (30.0%), while the lowest was grade 4 with a total of 2 (4.0%) and grade 5 as many as 3 people (6.0%).
Objective: Hypoxia-associated biomarkers profiling may provide information for prognosis, staging, and subsequent therapy. We aim to evaluate whether the quantitative gene and protein expression of hypoxic response tumor markers-carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF1A)-may have a role in predicting survival in advanced breast cancer of Indonesian population. Methods: Tumor tissues and peripheral blood samples were collected from treatment-naïve locally advanced (LABC) or metastatic breast cancer patients (MBC) at Wahidin Sudirohusodo General Hospital (Makassar, South Sulawesi) and its referral network hospitals from July 2017 to March 2019. The level of mRNA (of blood and tumor tissue samples) and soluble protein (of blood samples) of CAIX and HIF1A were measured by RT-qPCR and ELISA methods, respectively, besides the standard histopathological grading and molecular subtype assessment. The CAIX and HIF1A expression, patients' age, tumor characteristics, surgery status, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy drug classes were further involved in survival analyses for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Results: Forty (30 LABC, 10 MBC) eligible patients examined were 21 hormone-receptors positives (15 Luminal A, 6 Luminal B) and 19 hormone-receptors negatives (10 HER2-enriched, 9 triple-negative). The CAIX blood mRNA and CAIX soluble protein levels in hormone-receptors negative patients were higher than in hormone-receptor-positive patients (p < 0.05). In univariate analysis, both CAIX and HIF1A levels predict OS (except HIF1A protein) with CAIX tissue mRNA has the highest hazard ratio (HR 8.04, 95%CI:2.45-26.39), but not PFS. Cox proportional hazard model confirmed that CAIX tissue mRNA is the independent predictor of OS (HR 6.10, 95%CI: 1.16-32.13) along with surgical status and tumor advancement type (LABC or MBC). Conclusions: CAIX mRNA expression of tumor tissue in treatment-naïve advanced breast cancer has a predictive value for OS.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
