Abstract:
Oesophageal cancer is one of the most common and deadliest cancers worldwide. Our previous population-based study reported a high prevalence of oesophageal cancer in Chaoshan, Guangdong Province, China. Ancestors of the Chaoshan population migrated from the Taihang Mountain region of north-central China, which is another high-incidence area for oesophageal cancer. The purpose of the present study was to obtain evidence of inherited susceptibility to oesophageal cancer in the Chaoshan population, with reference to the Taihang Mountain population, with the eventual goal of molecular identification of the disease genes.Cite

The objective was to discuss the evolution of the real incidence of breast cancer. Observed incidence as calculated by cancer registries differs from the real incidence because of the artifacts brought by diagnostic procedures and case collection. Age-period-cohort models were applied to nearly 11,200 incident breast cancers collected by the Cancer Registry of Isère from 1983 to 2002 in women aged 30-84. We took into account prior knowledge and assumptions concerning the evolution of real incidence, diagnostic procedures, and collection of cases. In the age group 30-49, no real incidence increase was seen if we assume that diagnostic procedures and collection of cases were not impaired. In women aged 50-69, an increase of real incidence and intensive screening could explain the increase of observed incidence but exact quantifications are difficult. At most, the increase due to screening would reach 50%. In women aged 70-84, no real incidence increase was suspected if we assume that changes in clinical practices and screening led to more breast cancer cases collected.

In the mid- to late-1980s white populations in Australia, New Zealand and Scotland showed a sharp increase in melanoma incidence above preceding long-term trends, in some cases as much as doubling in as little as 2 years. Most of this increase was in thin melanomas, (<1.50 mm thick), and males were more affected than females. Thicker melanomas also generally increased in incidence, particularly in males aged 65 years or older. Examination of Australian Medicare and pathology laboratory data indicated that excision of skin lesions and laboratory diagnosis of pigmented lesions also rose sharply in this period, suggesting that advancement of the time of diagnosis was a likely factor in the increase in melanoma incidence. However the maintenance of new higher incidence levels and the increase in incidence of thicker lesions suggests that advancement of diagnosis cannot explain all of the increase. A real increase in incidence and increasing diagnosis of a preexisting, non-metastasizing form of thin melanoma may also have contributed

Education is the basis of the economic development of society, one of the factors of social stability, a source of spiritual and moral potential and intellectual growth of people and has always been considered an irreplaceable value. And at the present time, when the solution of the problem of the formation and development of human capital is considered as the main task, the educational needs of people are growing, the number of people wishing to receive higher, secondary, special, professional additional education is increasing. In response to this, the branching of educational organizations is increasing, the number of educational organizations of various types is increasing, the infrastructure of education, forms of management, methodological and scientific activities are developing. Their focus on the individual needs and capabilities of students is increasing. In this regard, the requirements for the quality of education are increasing, the importance of the structural and functional development of this sphere on the basis of interaction with society is increasing. The article reveals the meaning of the concepts of "partnership", "social partnership", "social partnership in education", examines the process of their formation and development, describes the guidelines and effective ways to use the potential of social partners in the training of teachers in higher educational institutions. Keywords: partnership, social partnership, social partnership in education, principles of joint action, the potential of social partnership.

OBJECTIVES The prevalence of hyponutrition among hospitalized patients varies between 30 to 50%, increasing both the morbidity and mortality rates. The aim of this study is to assess the incidence of hyponutrition in diabetic and non-diabetic patients at the General Surgery Department. METHODS Prospective, observation, and longitudinal study assessing the nutritional status by means of VGS, CONUT, and MNA. RESULTS 384 patients: 97 surgical diabetic patients, incidence of hyponutrition assessed by VGS 28.8%, by MNA among patients older than 65 years 54.28%. Two hundred and eighty seven non-diabetic surgical patients were assessed with an incidence of hyponutrition of 12.9%, and of 52.94% by MNA. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of hyponutrition in surgical diabetic patients is twofold higher than in non-diabetic patients. Elder diabetic and non-diabetic surgical patients show the same incidence of hyponutrition. Given the high incidence of hyponutrition in surgical patients admitted to the General Surgery Department, the nutritional status should be assessed by means of a protocolled method, at admission by VSG or MNA if they are older than 65 years, and admitted patients should be followed by using CONUT.
