Purpose: The objective of the present study is to analyze scientometrically some essential patterns of the dynamic science institutionalization on breast cancer immunohistochemistry and to outline the most significant scientists, journals, scientific institutions conference proceedings in this interdisciplinary field. Material/Methods: In December 2019, a retrospective problem-oriented, title-word based search was performed in Web of Science Core Collection (WoS), MEDLINE and BIOSIS Citation Index (BIOSIS) of Web of Knowledge as well as in Scopus for 2003-2018. The following parameters were comparatively assessed: annual dynamics of publications, author’s names, journal titles, scientific institutions, and scientific forums. Results: There were 1187 publications abstracted in WoS, 776 publications abstracted in BIOSIS, 711 publications abstracted in Scopus, and 616 publications abstracted in MEDLINE. There were journal articles in 288 journals abstracted in WoS, in 234 journals abstracted in MEDLINE, in 156 journals abstracted in Scopus, and in 140 journals abstracted in BIOSIS. The most productive authors were David G. Hicks, Rohit Bhargava and Ian O. Ellis. The ‘core’ journals were Modern Pathology, Laboratory Investigation and Cancer Research. The most influential scientific institutions were the University of Texas System (USA) and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (USA). The annual meetings of the US and Canadian Academy of Pathology and the Annual San Antonio Breast Cancer symposia were most attractive to the investigators worldwide. Conclusion:Our comprehensive results could be of interest to breast cancer researchers and clinicians from smaller countries, institutional science managers, and journal editors.

“…It worth noting that Africa and Pacific regions tend to have the highest prevalence (4). It is generally assumed that approximately 16% of the world's population carry the HPV virus (5). The latest statistics on GW prevalence are from 2012, in which, based on a systematic review, GW global prevalence (general population as a denominator) was estimated at 0.15% -0.18%.…”

Background: There is an information gap concerning the prevalence of genital warts infection in Iran. Objectives: The present study aimed to estimate the number of genital warts cases in the city of Bushehr using the multiplier method, which previously there was no accurate information. Methods: This 2019 cross-sectional study directly counted the number of cases of genital warts referred to private and public clinics in Bushehr City over a month (June). In July, a survey was conducted on the general population of the city in order to obtain information with reference to the number of people with a history of genital warts in the last month and to assess the patients who were referred to a healthcare center. We also interviewed physicians and midwives. Eventually, the number of genital warts cases calculated using the multiplier method (S = P1/P2 × m formula). In order to accurately estimate the confidence interval, a Monte Carlo analysis was used in STATA version 14. Results: The number of genital warts cases referred to a provider in the investigated month, separated by general practitioners, dermatologists, gynecologists, midwives, urologists, and infectious diseases specialists, was estimated at 258, 195, 77, 48, 22, 22, and 9, respectively. Conclusions: The estimated number of genital warts cases in the study population was significantly higher than the reported cases for the investigated month by the Bushehr University of Medical Sciences Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Understanding the true number of cases of genital warts can help policymakers in designing genital wart control and prevention programs for the general population and at-risk individuals.

“…According to a status report on the global burden of cancer worldwide using the GLOBOCAN 2018 estimates of cancer incidence and mortality produced by the International Agency for Research on Cancer focusing on geographic variability across 20 world regions, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in females [1]. Recent data of Globocan 2020 demonstrate that the number of new breast cancer cases in Bulgaria in 2020 is 4061 or 11.14% of all the new cancer cases and 25.46% of all the new female cancer cases [2], [3], [4]. Breast cancer occupies the first place among female cancers.…”

BACKGROUND: During recent years, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in females worldwide and in Bulgaria as well. The issues of satisfactory individual quality of life (QoL) after treatment represent undoubted interest and contribute to the elaboration and implementation of specific assessment questionnaires and scales. AIM: The objective of the present study was to assess some aspects of the QoL in female patients with breast cancer following successful disease management. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We examined a total of 57 female breast cancer patients operated on between 2018 and 2020 at a mean age of 47.89 ± 6.71 years (range, 30–59 years). They filled in the upper limb lymphoedema QoL questionnaire containing 27 items. RESULTS: There was a significant prevalence of the ductal carcinoma and nonspecific invasive carcinoma, of the luminal B- human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) positive and luminal B-HER2 negative breast cancer as well as of grade two of differentiation. The responses with “not at all” dominated concerning the domains of “activities of daily living” and “health-related complaints. There was a great variety of the frequency of different patient’s responses to one and the same question when all 27 questions of all 57 patients were assessed as a whole. There was only one response with suffering “a lot” given to all the four items dealing with health-related complaints. The response with “a little” inclination dominated concerning the psychological dimension. The responses with “a lot” disturbance in terms of three items (“in your emotional life with your partner”, “look at yourself in a mirror” and “in your professional relationships”) considerably prevailed indicating the pronounced unfavourable influence on these patients’ quality of social life exerted by the breast cancer. CONCLUSION: Breast cancer moderately affects individual patient’s QoL following successful treatment. Future research using additional specific questionnaires and focusing on the emotional and social aspects of the QoL could contribute to the improvement of patient’s life characteristics.
