LOGICO-STATISTIC REASONING OF OXIDATION-ANTIOXIDATION BALANCE PERIOPERATIVE CORRECTION IN COMPLEX TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH BREAST CANCER

 

Breast cancer is one of most frequent causes of mortality from tumors, in all the world over 600 thousand women die due to it [1]. The main method of effective treatment of breast 4cancer is an adequate surgical operation, while this is not fully enough to get the best results [2] and operation itself is characterized by stress and damage [3]. The problem of anesthesiologic tactics is the development of a system of metabolic disturbances correction by ahead intensive care on different stages of complex treatment.

Oxidation-reductive metabolism in oncological pathology has been investigated for prolonged time and actively enough [4]. Its changes are interpreted as one of pathogenic mechanisms of formation and development of oncological diseases, and as target for neoadjuvant therapy at radical surgical operations.

However, the absence of data about oxidative proteins and nucleonic acids modification, bioenergic metabolism, role of NO-dependent metabolites remain unclear. Because of same, the intensive care of patients with breast cancer, especially on different stages of surgical treatment, requires the further improvement basing on pethogenetic correction of changes in the system of antioxidant defense.

All above mentioned proves a number of unsettled questions in this problem and highlights its topicality.

Aim of the research was to evaluate the perioperative correction of oxidative-reductive metabolism efficacy in complex treatment of patients with breast cancer by using factor analysis.

Material and methods. In the prospective randomized controlled research that included 126 patients with breast cancer the role of oxidative stress have been studied in the complex treatment, particularly in anaesthesiological provision of surgical treatment and intensive care has been investigated using factor analysis.

Following aspects have been studied: metaboliñ changes connected with amount and duration of neoadjuvant therapy which define the peculiarities of pre-operational and intraoperational intensive care and are conditioned by clinico-functional state of different components of pro- and antioxidant status of patients.

The complex logico-statistical evaluation of data in order to find multiple interrelations between variables in the massive of available data has been performed by the method of factor analysis. Some quality (category) parameters has been transformed into quantity parameters with their point values. The threshold p-level value has been chosed as equal to 0.05.

Results and discussion. Thirty-eight variables have been included into factor analysis, on base of which 4 factors have been chosed, in total they explained 53.72 % of all variability of empiric data.

Taking into account the parameters which loaded the most powerful factor 1, it reflected clinico-general oxidative aspects of condition.

The joint factor 1 together with second by importance factor (factor 2) have explained almost half (46.47 %) of parameters variability. Taking into account variables included in factor 2, it has been associated with oxidative proteins modification.

Factors 3, 4 have lower influence on parameters variability, while most interesting is the fact that they have been loaded certain groups of parameters.

Thus, factor 3 reflected clinico-energetic context, load of factor 4 included mostly characteristics of clinico-hematological parameters.

Conclusions. Thus, as a result of performed factor analysis four main factors have been stated, by joint action of which 53.72 % of parameters variability may be explained in breast cancer and surgical operation with quadrantectomy of brest with lymphodissection.

By action of first most powerful factors which reveal clinico-general oxidative aspects and oxidative modification of proteins is explained 46.47 % of variability of parameters.

Factor estimation values by most powerful factor have differentiated the groups of patients with proposed treatment and standard approach with high level of evidence.

Further perspectives of investigations are related to prognosis of results of perioperative correction of oxidative-reductive metabolism efficacy in complex treatment of patients with breast cancer.
