The 3-year overall survival (OS) was 97.2, 95.2, 68.3, and 71.8%; 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) was 94.5, 91.4, 60.2, and 59.2%, respectively, for patients with pN- and IL, pN- and SLNB, pN+ and IL, and pN+ and SLNB. Neither OS nor DFS showed significant difference between SLNB and IL in pN- (P = 0.564 for OS, P = 0.423 for DFS), or pN + patients (P = 0.920 for OS, P = 0.862 for DFS).
With appropriate adjuvant radiotherapy, SLNB alone provided similar long-term survival compared with IL for both patients with and without sentinel node metastasis.

The triplet-agent (5-fluorouracil/leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan; FOLFOXIRI) combined with an anti-epidermal growth factor receptor antibody as a first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) has shown promising results in Western trials. This phase Ib study assessed the safety of FOLFOXIRI plus cetuximab in Japanese patients with RAS wild-type mCRC.
Patients with previously untreated RAS wild-type mCRC received weekly cetuximab (400mg/m
at week 1 and subsequently 250mg/m
) plus FOLFOXIRI that consisted of irinotecan (100, 120, and 150mg/m
defined as dose levels 0, 1, and 2), followed by oxaliplatin 85mg/m
and l-leucovorin 200mg/m
and then 5-fluorouracil 2400mg/m
. The dose level of irinotecan was escalated starting at dose level 1 in a 3 + 3 manner. The primary endpoint was to determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended phase-2 dose (RP2D). Secondary endpoints included safety, overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
Nine patients were enrolled. The MTD was not reached at dose level 2 and the RP2D was 150mg/m
irinotecan. ALK activation The most frequent grade 3/4 adverse events were neutropenia (44%), fatigue (11%), paronychia (22%), and acneiform rash (11%). No dose-limiting toxicities occurred in any of the enrolled patients. No treatment-related death was observed. The ORR was 89% (95% confidence interval 52-100%).
The safety profile of the combination of cetuximab and FOLFOXIRI was acceptable and promising anti-tumor activity was demonstrated, supporting further study in patients with RAS wild-type mCRC.

However, the optimal extent of surgery is still under debate. We aimed to systematically review and perform a meta-analysis of limited resection (LR) and pancreatoduodenectomy for patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma. A systematic electronic database search of the literature was performed using PubMed and the Cochrane Library. All studies comparing LR and pancreatoduodenectomy for patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma were selected. Long-term overall survival was considered as the primary outcome, and perioperative morbidity and mortality as the secondary outcomes. Fifteen studies with a total of 3166 patients were analyzed; 995 and 1498 patients were treated with limited resection and pancreatoduodenectomy, respectively. Eight and 7 studies scored a low and intermediate risk of publication bias, respectively. The LR group had a more favorable result than the pancreatoduodenectomy group in overall morbidity (odd ratio [OR] 0.33, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.17-0.65) and postoperative pancreatic fistula (OR 0.13, 95% CI 0.04-0.43). Mortality (OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.70-1.33) and overall survival (OR 0.61, 95% CI 0.33-1.13) were not significantly different between the two groups, although comparison of the two groups stratified by prognostic factors, such as T categories, was not possible due to a lack of detailed data. LR showed long-term outcomes equivalent to those of pancreatoduodenectomy, while the perioperative morbidity rates were lower. LR could be an option for selected duodenal adenocarcinoma patients with appropriate location or depth of invasion, although further studies are required.This study describes charges, outcomes, and recidivism in both the juvenile and adult criminal justice systems (CJS) for young adults aged 17 to 23 years with autism spectrum disorder (ASD; n = 606). Results are compared to individuals with ID (n = 1271) and a population control group (n = 2973). About 3% of individuals with ASD were charged with at least one offense by the time they reached young adulthood. Few differences were found in CJS involvement across groups. Young adults with ASD were not over represented in the CJS in general, and were less likely to be involved in the adult justice system than their peers. They received similar charges and outcomes and were as likely to reoffend as their peers.The objective is to identify obstetric and perinatal factors that could be significant predictors of ASD and may lead to early detection and intervention. A population-based case-control study including 128 children diagnosed with ASD and 311 controls was conducted. Information was collected through self-reported questionnaires. The factors retained as significant predictors for ASD in the final adjusted hierarchical logistic regression model were cesarean section and male gender. The study revealed a higher incidence of cesarean sections and male gender in children with ASD in comparison to unaffected children confirming the results of previous studies. Children born by cesarean section, especially males, should be more closely monitored for the presence of ASD traits for early diagnosis and intervention.Few studies have examined the relationships among parents' resilience, parenting stress, and social support. This study surveyed 486 parents of children with disability in China to understand the role of social support between parenting stress and parents' resilience. The results indicated that the resilience of Chinese parents of children with disabilities was at a high level. Additionally, parenting stress, social support and resilience were significantly associated, and the mediating effect of social support between parenting stress and parents' resilience were proved by mediation analyses. The findings suggested that reducing parental stress and improving social support may predict (or be associated with) improved parent resilience. The authors discussed the implications for the improvement the resilience of Chinese parents of children with disabilities.
