Preview- It`s apparent that, in this study, it was examined the efficacy of the prophylactic strategy in hepatitis B (i.e., viral hepatitis type b) s-antigen seropositive breast (i.e., mamma, or teat) cancer patients during chemotherapy using a prospective, randomized controlled study. Hepatitis, disease of the liver (i.e., hepar) causing inflammation. Symptoms include an enlarged liver, fever (i.e., febris, or pyrexia), nausea (i.e., sicchasia), vomiting (i.e., emesis, or vomition), abdominal pain, and dark urine. Antigen, any substance that causes the body to make a specific immune response. Breast cancer, cancer that forms in tissues of the breast, usually the ducts (tubes that carry milk (i.e., strip, or lac) to the nipple (i.e., papilla mammae, or mammilla)) and lobules (glands that make milk). It occurs in both men and women, although male (i.e., masculine) breast (i.e., mamma masculina, or mamma virilis) cancer is rare. Breast, glandular (i.e., glandulous) organ located on the chest (i.e., pectus). The breast is made up of connective tissue (i.e., interstitial tissue, or supporting tissue), fat, and breast tissue that contains the glands that can make milk. Also called mammary gland (i.e., glandula mammaria, or lactiferous gland). Chemotherapy, treatment with drugs that kill cancer cells. Efficacy, effectiveness. In medicine, the ability of an intervention (for example, a drug or surgery) to produce the desired beneficial effect. Prospective is in medicine, a study or clinical trial in which participants are identified and then followed forward in time. Controlled study is an experiment or clinical trial that includes a comparison (control) group. Clinical, having to do with the examination and treatment of patients.
- It`s that, the results showed that the prophylactic lamivudine strategy significantly decreased the incidence of HBV reactivation (0 vs). Lamivudine is a drug used to treat infection caused by viruses. Incidence is the number of new cases of a disease diagnosed each year. HBV is a virus that causes hepatitis (inflammation of the liver). It is carried and passed to others through the blood and other body fluids. Different ways the virus is spread include sharing needles with an infected person and being stuck accidentally by a needle contaminated with the virus. Infants born to infected mothers may also become infected with the virus. Although many patients who are infected with HBV may not have symptoms, long-term infection may lead to cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) and liver cancer. Also called hepatitis B virus (i.e., cercopithecrine herpesvirus).
- Evidently, recently, a prospective survey has recommended that deferred preemptive lamivudine could be a comparable alternative to the prophylactic strategy.
