Abstract
Background: The agenda of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) calls for unanimous actions to end poverty, battle against inequalities, protect the earth and to promote inclusive well-being. Today, the impact of cancer on societies threatens the ambitions of the SDGs. In developing nations, public awareness campaigns often focus on controlling the spread of communicable diseases, overlooking the rise of cancer afflictions. As a nation of multiethnic populations with different cultural and educational backgrounds, the views pertaining cancer treatment in Malaysia are often hampered by cultural beliefs. Cancer is often linked to bad luck or black magic, particularly among rural communities. The lack of knowledge in diagnostics and cancer therapeutics, in addition to many firm believers in alternative medicine may contribute to late detection and treatment only at the advanced stages of cancer. Aim: This project aims to tap into the pool of skills and expertise of the staff at the Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) to help educate and raise public awareness on cancer causes, diagnosis and treatment among cancer survivors and the general public. Methods: My role as a scientist is to ensure that my research addresses the key problems faced in cancer therapies and that this information trickles down to the less informed traditional societies who have very different perceptions toward modern medicine. Workshops on cancer awareness highlighting cancer causes and treatment options, cancer diagnosis and holistic approaches while living with cancer were organized in partnership with MAKNA National Cancer Council Malaysia between the years 2015-2017. Support groups led by MAKNA, were also organized in a bid to educate cancer survivors who may lack important knowledge which could impinge on daily informed decisions concerning cancer diagnosis and treatment. Results: Through working hand in hand with MAKNA, a nonprofit organization with a duty 'to pool and use every effort, expertise and welfare from every faction of society to fight cancer', this project has successfully drawn knowledge and expertise from USM staff to come together as one to raise awareness and support cancer survivors. Members have also traveled to remote regions of Malaysia for home visits and cancer group meetings to support the cancer survivors and to raise awareness. Cancer survivors have been able to obtain personal advice from the university's cancer pathologist on their diagnosis, and have their queries answered pertaining to western medicine vs alternative medicine from academic research point of view. Conclusion: Working together with MAKNA has enabled cancer researchers and university staff to relate to real-life adversities so that we can continue to translate our research and knowledge to benefit the society.

Abstract
Background: Advancement in medical treatment with wider treatment options have made breast cancer (BC) care more complex. Short consultation time with physicians, treatment complexities, patients' fears and poor coping skills at the time of diagnosis may affect patient´s decision that cause treatment delays and nonadherence. Main reasons for advance BC presentation in Malaysia are delay in taking treatment decision and poor breast health literacy on disease and treatment outcomes may contribute to nonadherence to treatments. To address this knowledge gap, a breast care nurse (BCN) led orientation video for new patients to navigate them through complex multimodal treatment processes. This audio-visual educational tool address multimodal treatments and its side effects and in addition navigating admission, discharge and follow-up, advice on diet and exercise to maintain a healthy life style during survivorship period was developed in layperson language in Malay, Mandarin and English. Aim: To assess the effectiveness of BCN led video orientation on the improvement of patient knowledge and satisfaction. Methods: A pilot study was carried out in 50 patients to assess the effectiveness of the video, and found that patients needed a face to face interaction to watch the video. Hence, a BCN led orientation was developed to use the video. A self-administered pre- and postsurvey on 246 newly diagnosed breast cancer patients in University Malaya Medical Center (UMMC) was performed to evaluate expectations, satisfactions and knowledge (a Likert scale response using items 4 number scale was used, 0 means “no knowledge” and 4 means “a great degree of knowledge”). The scoring was done before and after the video orientation was done. A Wilcoxon matched-paired signed-rank test was perform to analyze the changes in the scoring. Results: Among 247 patients, who received the BCN led video orientation program, 79.3% (n= 197) found that the video met or exceeded their expectations. 23.9% (n=59) and 56.3% (139) consecutively found the video very effective and effective in broadening their perspective on BC treatments. And 171 (69.2%) of them overall rated the video highly met their expectations. There were significant improvement in knowledge for treatment options for BC, mean scores (M=0.93 versus M=2.97) before and after watching the video ( P < 0.001). Similar findings were found in different types of operation for BC; procedure for admission in UMMC, information on chemotherapy; radiotherapy; hormone therapy and alternative medicine for BC. It also showed improved knowledge scores for healthy diet; physical activity after treatments and care of the arm after operation ( P < 0.001). Conclusion: Video-based information on treatments and navigating care through a BCN led service had effectively improved patients' knowledge and satisfaction. This approach can be used to educate cancer patients in a middle resource setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Low serum albumin level is reportedly associated with worse clinical outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, associations between decreased serum albumin level and outcomes in non-CKD patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) remain unclear. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of serum albumin concentrations in stable CAD patients with preserved renal function. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 1316 patients with CAD and preserved renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2) who underwent their first PCI between 2000 and 2011 and had data available for pre-procedural serum albumin. Patients were assigned to quartiles based on pre-procedural albumin concentrations. The incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), including all-cause death and non-fatal myocardial infarction, was evaluated. Mean albumin concentration was 4.1 ± 0.4 g/dL. During the median follow-up of 7.5 years, 181 events occurred (13.8%). Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that patients with decreased serum albumin concentrations showed a higher event rate for MACE (log-rank, p < 0.0001). Using the highest tertiles (>4.3 g/dL) as reference, adjusted hazard ratios were 1.97 (95% CI, 1.12-3.55), 1.77 (95% CI, 0.99-3.25), and 1.19 (95% CI, 0.68-2.15) for serum albumin concentrations of <3.9, 3.9-4.0, and 4.1-4.3 g/dL, respectively. Decreased serum albumin concentration was associated with MACE even after adjusting for other independent variables (HR, 2.21 per 1-g/dL decrease; 95% CI, 1.37-3.56, p = 0.001). CONCLUSION Decreased serum albumin concentration independently predicted worse long-term prognosis in non-CKD patients after PCI. Pre-procedural serum albumin concentration could offer a useful predictor for patients with CAD and preserved renal function.

Abstract
Introduction Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health problem with an increasing prevalence worldwide. Anemia is one of its consistent and severe hematological complications although its mechanism is not fully elucidated. The primary defect could manifest as serum erythropoietin (sEPO) deficiency or EPO resistance. We set out to determine the erythropoietic response to anemia of patients with CKD and its relationship with their iron status in a cross-sectional descriptive study of 91 patients in various stages of CKD. Materials and Methods: Soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR), sEpo, and serum ferritin levels were determined using ELISA method (Diagnostic Automation Inc and WKEA med supplies corp.). Data generated were analyzed using Epi Info version 3.5.3 and level of statistical significance was set at ≤0.05. Results: Participants comprised of 50 females (54.9%) and 41 (45.1%) males with an overall mean age of 47 ± 15 years. The major causes of CKD were hypertension (HTN) (50.54%), diabetes mellitus (DM) (6.59%), and HTN + DM (19.78%). The mean hemoglobin (Hb) concentration of the participants was 10.97 ± 2.28 g/dl; the red cell indices were within normal ranges except for Red cell distribution width-Coefficient of variation (%) which was elevated (16.29%). The mean serum ferritin, sTfR, and sEpo were 70.58 ± 46.44 ng/ml (interquartile range [IQR] 82.00), 22.9 ± 49.7 ng/ml (IQR 15.00), and 12.49 ± 33.47 IU/L (IQR 6.00), respectively, with a high variance. Serum ferritin and sTfR are consistently low across the stages of CKD (range between 54.54 ng/ml and 88.64 ng/ml), but sEPO for stage 3 and 4 showed a 2-fold increase when compared to normal level at Hb 10.97 g/dl (29.54 IU/L and 38.83 IU/L, respectively). Correlation between sTfR and sEpo (r2 = 0.96, P = 0.001), while between sEpo and serum ferritin (r2 = 0.02, P = 0.185), and between Hb and stage of CKD undulating (r2 = 0.41, P = 0.001). Conclusion In contrast to some existing literature, this study has demonstrated that EPO resistance and iron deficiency contributes to anemia in CKD and serum ferritin can be used to assess the iron level of dialysis naïve CKD patients at every stage of the disease.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Pregnancy associated breast cancer (PABC) is defined as breast cancer (BC) diagnosed during the gestational period (GP) or in the first year postpartum (PP). Despite its infrequent occurrence, the incidence of PABC appears to be rising due to the increasing propensity for women to delay childbirth. We have established the first combined prospective and retrospective registry study of PABC in Ireland to examine specific clinicopathological characteristics, treatments and maternal outcomes. We present the retrospective findings to date.
Methods
We performed a retrospective multicentre observational study of patients (pts) with PABC treated in the eight Irish cancer centres from August 2001 to March 2017. Data extracted included information on pt demographics, tumour biology, staging, treatment administered and maternal outcomes. Standard biostatistical methods were used for analysis.
Results
111 PABC patients were identified. Sixty pts (54%) were diagnosed during the GP and 51 (46%) within 1 year PP. Median age at diagnosis was 36 years (yrs). Table 1 illustrates baseline characteristics. Two thirds of pts were node positive and a similar proportion had grade 3 pathology. Seventy pts (63%) were estrogen receptor (ER) positive, 36 (32%) HER2 positive, 25 (22%) triple negative. Twenty-two pts (20%) were metastatic at presentation. Seven pts (6%) had a known BRCA 1/2 mutation. The median OS (overall survival) and DFS (disease free survival) for the entire cohort was 107.4 and 94.2 months respectively (resp). There was no survival difference between those diagnosed during the GP versus PP. 5 yr DFS and OS was 68.6% and 69.2% resp. This compares unfavourably to results reported by the National Cancer Registry of Ireland in a similar age-matched BC population between 2000-2012 where the 5 yr OS was 86.5%. Variables in our study associated with poorer outcomes included younger age, tumour size, node positivity and lack of estrogen expression.

Conclusions
PABC patients may have a poorer outcome. Our study reported higher rates of triple negative and HER2 positive breast cancer which are associated with more aggressive biology. Prospective evaluation of clinicopathological features, pharmacokinetics of treatments selected and maternal and fetal outcomes is imperative in this distinct pt group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Multiorgan failure including liver dysfunction is a common finding in sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients, the cause of which is multifactorial with advancing age said to be a major determinant. There is a paucity of data on liver function among SCA patients in relation to age in northern Nigerian hospitals, including Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Zaria. This study was to assess the biochemical liver function tests (LFTs) as they relate to age among SCA patients in steady state, with a view to improving the overall monitoring of these patients. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This study was carried out in ABUTH, Zaria, Northern Nigeria. LFTs were carried out in 100 SCA and 100 apparently healthy participants (controls). The SCA group was made up of fifty adults and fifty children diagnosed of SCA, whereas the control group was made up of fifty adults and fifty children who were apparently healthy and had hemoglobin AA. Paired two-tailed Student's t-test for matched samples and Pearson's linear correlation statistical methods were employed for the data analysis using Microsoft Office Excel 2007. A P ≤ 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. RESULTS The serum concentrations of total bilirubin (TB), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and AST/ALT ratio were significantly higher in SCA patients compared to the controls (P = 0.001, P = 0.001, P = 0.05, P = 0.05 and P = 0.001, respectively). Serum total protein (TP) and ALB were significantly lower (P = 0.01 and P < 0.05, respectively) in SCA patients compared with the controls. The levels of TB, ALT, AST, ALP, and AST/ALT were significantly lower in SCA adults compared to SCA children, whereas TP and ALB were higher in SCA adults compared to the SCA children. There were significant negative correlations between age and each of TB, ALT, AST, ALP, and AST/ALT, and significant positive correlations between age and each of TP and ALB in SCA patients. CONCLUSION There are mild LFTs derangements in SCA patients even in steady state with the extent of the abnormalities decreasing with advancing age of the patients.

Abstract
Background: Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a rare bleeding disorder that may remit spontaneously. Life-threatening bleeding may require transfusion support, steroids, and other immunosuppressive therapy or splenectomy. Objective: To review the clinical presentation and laboratory features of ITP at Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Zaria, Nigeria. Subjects and Methods: A retrospective analytic study of case notes and bone marrow (BM) records of patients diagnosed with ITP at Haematology Department, ABUTH, Zaria, from January 1, 2004, to December 31, 2012. Results: There were nine cases (six females, three males), aged 6–20 (mean 11.11) years. The presentations were epistaxis 8 (88.9%), purpura 4 (44.4%), gum bleeding 4 (44.4%), menorrhagia 2 (22.2%), and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) 1 (11.1%). Only 1 (11.1%) had clinical splenomegaly. Platelet count of <20 × 109/L was found in 4 (44.4%) while 6 (66.7%) had packed cell volume of <25%. All the nine cases had BM megakaryocytic hyperplasia. Six patients had blood transfusion support while 7 (77.8%) patients received oral prednisolone therapy with time to cessation of bleeding of 12–16 (mean of 8) weeks. One case had spontaneous remission while another had anti-D due to relapse after steroid therapy; this resulted in transient rise in platelet counts. None had other immunosuppressive therapy or splenectomy. Six (66.7%) cases were lost to follow-up after achieving remission and one died of ICH. Conclusion: ITP is not common in our center though its clinical presentations are varied. However, prednisolone and blood transfusion therapy are central to the management of these patients with favorable outcome.

Abstract
PURPOSE The management of non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTEACS) remains an issue for mobidity, mortality, and an economic stake. The first aim of the study was to evaluate the additional value of the GRACE score for the compliance with the recommended times to coronary angiography in an hospital without interventional cardiology. We also analysed the in-hospital and 6-month mortality and the predictive factors of compliance for the coronarography delays. METHODS Retrospective monocenter cross-sectional study including consecutive patients with chest pain suggestive of a NSTEACS during 1 year. Data of the delay to coronarography were collected and GRACE score was calculated a posteriori. RESULTS The time to perform coronary angiography was non-compliant in 49% of cases (27 patients out of 55). The calculation of the GRACE score would have allowed correcting the delay for two patients of our cohort. Clinical appreciation, troponin elevation, ECG modifications were associated with the delay compliance. Age <75 years predisposed to recommended delays. Renal failure and history of coronaropathy were significantly associated with non compliant delays. A non-compliant delay was significantly associated with higher mortality. CONCLUSION In our experience, the knowledge of the GRACE score had little impact on the timing of coronary angiography. However, as a predictor of mid and long term mortality, GRACE score remains SCA ST+ useful to intensify surveillance of high-risk patients.
