Abstract:
This study examines the pharyngeal phase of swallowing after the resection of pharyngeal cancer, and focuses on the pharynx as a functional organ. The purpose of the study was to obtain information on both reconstruction and rehabilitation in cases of surgically treated pharyngeal cancer. The records of 21 consecutive patients who underwent surgical treatment of oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma between 1990 and 1993 were reviewed. Functional results following surgery were graded on a numerical scale in three categories: pharyngeal swallow, laryngeal and lower airway protection, and oral alimentation. Three treatment groups were observed: group 1=transoral excision with primary closure (six patients); group 2=composite resection with primary closure (nine patients); and group 3=composite resection with deltopectoral or pectoralis major flap closure (six patients). Comparison of pharyngeal swallow and laryngeal protection functions showed no significant difference between the three groups. However, oral alimentation performance in group 1 was significantly better than in group 3, and groups 1 and 2 achieved a similar level. In patients with T3 and T4 tumors postoperative function was poor and no difference in postoperative function was demonstrated between patients undergoing reconstruction with primary closure and patients undergoing reconstruction with deltopectoral or pectoralis major flaps. Patients with T3 and T4 tumors experienced impaired postoperative function regardless of the method of reconstruction used. This is not a condemnation of the surgical treatment of advanced pharyngeal tumors, but rather a suggestion that other reconstruction techniques be considered.

Abstract:
Pharyngeal cancer still presents an unsatisfactory mortality (30-40 per cent in most series, with a slightly better prognosis for nasopharyngeal cancer relative to both oropharyngeal and hypophyarngeal cancers) despite advances in treatment. Therefore, it is critical to know the clinical features of pharyngeal cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the most relevant clinical features of pharyngeal cancer (oropharyngeal, hypopharyngeal, and nasopharyngeal) in order to improve knowledge of this malignancy with the aim of ameliorating diagnosis and treatment.The retrospective study was based on a review of medical records from 258 consecutive patients with pharyngeal cancer (oropharyngeal, hypopharyngeal and nasopharyngeal) diagnosed at La Paz University Hospital, Madrid, Spain, between January 1 1991 and and December 31 1995. Medical records were provided by the Departments of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Radiation Oncology, and Medical Oncology.All medical records were analysed for the following clinical variables: 1) incidence, 2) sociodemographics, 3) sites (oropharynx, hypopharynx, nasopharynx) and subsites, 4) clinical and histological staging, 5) pathlogy, 6) presenting symptoms, 7) time to diagnosis, 8) patients’ general performance status at diagnosis, 9) personal cancer history and synchronous head and neck tumours, 10) premalignant lesions, and 11) paediatric cases.Our most outstanding finding was the excessively long time that elapsed between first clinical manifestation appearance and conclusive diagnosis of pharyngeal cancer (4.7 months for pharynx, 4.5 for oropharynx, 4.4 for hypopharynx and 6.5 for nasopharynx cancers). It was found that nasopharyngeal cancer was quite different from both oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal cancers with respect to its potential aetiology, risk factors and clinical presentation. In addition it has a better prognosis.

Abstract:
This study investigated the association between periodontitis and the risk of pharyngeal cancer in Taiwan. For this population-based nested case–control study using the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database derived from Taiwan’s National Health Insurance Research Database, we identified patients (n = 1292) who were newly diagnosed with pharyngeal cancer between 2005 and 2013 and exactly paired them with propensity score matched control subjects (n = 2584). Periodontitis and scaling and root planing (SRP) were identified before the index date. Pharyngeal cancer was subdivided into 3 subgroups on the basis of anatomic location: nasopharyngeal cancer, oropharyngeal cancer, and hypopharyngeal cancer. A multiple conditional logistic regression model was applied to analyze the adjusted odds ratio (aOR). Periodontitis was associated with an increased risk of pharyngeal cancer (aOR, 1.57; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.17 to 2.10), especially oropharyngeal cancer (aOR, 2.22; 95% CI, 1.07 to 4.60). We found a decreased risk of pharyngeal cancer in patients who had undergone SRP (aOR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.61 to 0.96). In conclusion, this study showed that periodontitis was associated with an increased risk of pharyngeal cancer and SRP exerted a protective effect against pharyngeal cancer. Our results suggest that treating periodontitis and performing SRP, which are modifiable factors in oral health, in clinical practice may provide an opportunity to decrease the disease burden of pharyngeal cancer in Taiwan.

Abstract:
Human papillomavirus–negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) carries a poor prognosis, and despite optimal treatment with chemoradiotherapy to the limit of tolerance, many patients will relapse. A number of methods for intensifying treatment of HNSCC have been investigated, leading to the current standards of care. Novel agents targeting tumor cell and stromal signaling, DNA damage response, and immune system are now reaching clinical trials in combination with chemoradiotherapy. In this review, we discuss the evidence for the current treatment of locally advanced human papillomavirus–negative HNSCC, as well as investigational therapies, such as hypoxia modification, molecular targeting of epidermal growth factor receptor family, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor or DNA damage response proteins in combination with radiation therapy.

Abstract:
The psychosocial intervention in cancer patient management has been shown to reduce anxiety effectively, but no assessment has been made of the effect on health related quality of life (HRQOL). The aims of this project were to examine head and neck cancer patient's level of information and assess anxiety level and HRQOL in an attempt to recommend the educational psychosocial support needed for oral and pharyngeal cancer patients. The first part of this research audits the patients' information support (as part of the psychosocial support) and preferred format for additional information material. A locally developed questionnaire was applied to three groups of oral disease patients the multidisciplinary team approach was significantly better in informing oral and pharyngeal cancer patients. The survey also confirmed the patients' preference for written format information materials and the low preference for the computer technology as a source for health information. The second part of the study aimed to assess oral and pharyngeal cancer patients' anxiety level and HRQOL. The results showed that patients have levels of HRQOL comparable to those previously reported in similar studies, although patients had higher level of anxiety. The third section correlates the anxiety scores from the HADS to HRQOL scores the HADS-Anxiety scores were significantly correlated to the SF-36 scores at the preoperative stage and to the EORTC H&N35 scores at the postoperative stages. Predictability equations were formulated for the HRQOL domains scores using the HADS score. The final section was a semi-structured interview with 30 head and neck cancer patients and their families. This was a cross sectional study with the aim of examining the relationship between information, educational level, anxiety and HRQOL. In conclusion, oral cancer patients required more sophisticated gating of information about disease management. There was a significant correlation between anxiety scores with HRQOL scores however the high anxiety scores suggested that patients' education should include methods of anxiety control. Patients' perception of good psychosocial support can improve their HRQOL.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.A.)--Boston University<br>Oral and pharyngeal cancer (OPC) is the sixth most common type of cancer globally and is becoming more frequent in younger populations (age 45 and below). The two main factors influencing a person's risk for OPC involve the individual's pattern of alcohol and tobacco consumption. Alcohol and tobacco are each associated with their own risk factors and morbidities, but when combined together the risk for OPC multiplies significantly. The combined consumption of alcohol and tobacco has detrimental effects on oral health, OPC being the most severe. Generally OPC is rare among younger individuals and tends to develop when people are greater than 60 yrs old. This new pattern of emerging OPC in younger individuals raises the question of whether or not the two age groups are exposed to common risk factors increasing the risk of early and more severe cases of OPC. The current study will examine the pathogenesis and genetic pathways that are causative agents for OPC. Additionally, this paper aims to determine the direct pathogenesis that is involved individually with alcohol and tobacco products. Specifically we seek to determine the pathogenic effects when alcohol and tobacco are used in combination. In conclusion, the findings of the study indicated that the two substances (alcohol and tobacco) have very similar effects at the molecular level. The effects that each exert involve the accumulation of DNA damage over time. Yet the exact pathogenic mechanism in which each substance affects the cellular function when combined is unknown. The theorized molecular mechanism involves alcohol increasing the permeability of the oral mucosa allowing tobacco carcinogens greater access into the tissue. Hence alcohol is a multiplying factor that increases the detrimental effects of tobacco. In conclusion the combined use of alcohol and tobacco greatly increases the chances of developing OPC in younger populations. By improving outreach and education of the public on the cumulative effects of tobacco and alcohol, especially at the high school and college level, a change in usage can hopefully be brought about leading decreased OPC in all populations.

Abstract:
Contexte : Peu d’études ont recherché le rôle des facteurs de risque professionnels dans la survenue des cancers des voies aérodigestives supérieures (VADS). Ces études ont été conduites principalement chez des hommes.Objectif : L’objectif de cette thèse était d’étudier les associations entre les cancers des VADS et les expositions professionnelles chez les femmes.Méthodes : Icare est une étude cas-témoins en population générale incluant 296 cas féminins de cancers épidermoïdes des VADS et 775 femmes témoins. Les historiques de carrières recueillis ont été codés et croisés avec les matrices emplois-expositions du programme Matgéné. Outre les intitulés d’emplois, les expositions à 5 solvants chlorés (chloroforme, chlorure de méthylène, perchloréthylène, trichloréthylène, tétrachlorure de carbone), 5 solvants oxygénés (éthylène glycol, tétrahydrofurane, éther éthylique, cétones, alcools), 5 solvants pétroliers (essences carburants, essences spéciales, gazole, benzène, white-spirit) et à 7 poussières et fibres (amiante, farine, cuir, fibres céramiques réfractaires, ciment, laines minérales, silice) ont été étudiées. Les odds-ratios et leurs intervalles de confiance à 95% ajustés sur l’âge, le département, les consommations de tabac et d’alcool ont été estimés par régressions logistiques non conditionnelles.Résultats :Plusieurs professions et secteurs d’activité associés à un risque élevé de cancer des VADS ont été identifiés. Certaines professions (ouvrières de l’alimentation et des boissons, monteuses en appareillage électrique ou électronique, soudeuses) peuvent être à l’origine d’expositions professionnelles aux solvants, aux métaux, aux fumées de soudage et à diverses poussières. Les analyses par nuisance ont mis en évidence des associations significatives entre le risque de cancer des VADS et l’exposition au perchloréthylène et au au trichloréthylène. Aucune association claire n’est observée avec les solvants pétroliers et oxygénés, certains largement utilisés par les femmes L’exposition aux poussières de farine augmente significativement le risque de cancer des VADS. Une exposition probable à l’amiante est associée à une augmentation modérée et non significative du risque. Les analyses par localisation de cancer (cavité orale, pharynx, larynx), limitées par des effectifs faibles, ne mettent pas en évidence d’association spécifique.Conclusion : Nos résultats suggèrent un rôle des expositions professionnelles au trichloréthylène, au perchloréthylène et aux poussières de farine dans la survenue des cancers des VADS chez les femmes<br>Background : Few occupational studies have addressed head and neck cancer, and these studies have been predominantly conducted in men. Objective : Our objective was to investigate the associations between head and neck cancer and occupational exposures in women Population and methods : ICARE, a French population-based case–control study, included 296 squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (HNSCC) in women and 775 female controls. Lifelong occupational history was collected. Job-exposure matrices were used to assess exposure to five chlorinated solvents (carbon tetrachloride; chloroform; methylene chloride; perchloroethylene; trichloroethylene), 5 petroleum solvents (benzene; special petroleum product; gasoline; white-spirits and other light aromatic mixtures; diesel, fuels and kerosene), 5 oxygenated solvents (alcohols; ketones and esters; ethylene glycol; diethyl ether; tetrahydrofuran) and 7 fibers and dusts (asbestos, flour dust, leather dust, refractory ceramic fibers, cement dust, mineral wools and silica) . An analysis by job title was conducted, and then associations with specific occupational exposures were investigated.Odds ratio (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), adjusted for smoking, alcohol drinking, age and residence area, were estimated with logistic models. Results : Significantly increased HNSCC risks were found for several jobs and industries. Some of these occupations (food and beverage processors, electrical and electronic equipment assemblers, welders and flame cutters) may entail exposure to agents such as solvents, metals, welding fumes and various dusts. Analyses for specific occupational exposures showed a significantly elevated risk of HNSCC associated with exposure to trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene. There is no clear evidence that petroleum or oxygenated solvents, some of them commonly used by women, are risk factors for HNSCC. Exposure to flour dust increased significantly HNSCC risk. Probable exposure to asbestos was associated with a moderate, non-significant elevation in risk. Analyses by cancer site (oral cavity, pharynx, larynx) were hampered by small numbers and did to reveal any specific association.Conclusion : These findings suggest that occupational exposure to perchloroethylene, trichloroethylene and flour dust may increase the risk of HNSCC in women

Abstract:
博士<br>國立陽明大學<br>藥理學研究所<br>101<br>In patients with head and neck cancers, 90% are overwhelmingly squamous cell carcinomas. Thus, a compound effective to treat squamous cell carcinoma is very helpful for treating head and neck cancer in clinics. Because complete surgical excision is usually difficult in head and neck cancer, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are playing important roles. This study was aimed to find out a safe compound to help treat head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Silymarin is an ancient herbal medicine with antioxidant effects for treating liver diseases. Because silymarin also has been shown inhibit cancer cells, this study investigate its effects on head and neck cancer cells with possible underlying action mechanisms. Using LC/MS/MS to analyze silymarin, the result showed silybin A+B (33%), silycristin (17.2%), silydianin (4.9%) and other components. In vitro study showed that silymarin (60~140μM) inhibited the growth of FaDu cells, a human pharynx squamous cell carcinoma cell line, in a concentration- and time-dependent manner, resulting in cancer cell apoptosis. Silymarin was found to increase PTEN expression and inhibit AKT signal pathway. Because knocking down of PTEN mRNA with siRNA diminished the cytotoxic action of silymarin in FaDu cells, it indicated that PTEN-AKT signal pathway is involved in the cytotoxic action of silymarin. This study also investigated the effect of silymarin on Taiwanese NPC cell line (NPC-TW01) and found the cytotoxic effect of silymarin was the same at doses between 70~80μM. Further experiment showed that the superoxide production peaked at 8h and gradually decreased from 12~24h after treated with silymarin (80μM) in NPC-TW01 cells. In contrast, the anti-oxident enzyme including SOD1, catalase, GPx were increased from 8 to 24h. Because the decreased anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 level and increased proapoptotic enzyme AIF and activated caspase 3 were concomitantly recovered, it suggested that low dose silymarin-induced cell growth inhibition may induce compensatory anti-oxidant effects in NPC-TW01 cell to against silymarin-induced apoptosis. In conclusion, this study revealed silymarin is helpful in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma therapy, but high dose is recommended.

Abstract:
碩士<br>高雄醫學大學<br>牙醫學研究所<br>98<br>Background: Patients with disability or oral-pharyngeal cancer may have well-functioning mastication, but suffer from choking, aspiration, pneumonia, and suffocation due to ingestion disorder or dysphagia. In Taiwan, there is limited research concerning ingestion disorder and dysphagia, so this study was designed to investigate the prevalence of ingestion condition and dysphagia and their relationship with the patients with disability or tongue/laryngo-pharyngeal cancer. Objective: To investigate the type and severity of disability, diseases in oro-pharyngeal region, physical condition, content, texture and character of daily diet, prevalence and timing of dysphagia of patients with disability or tongue/laryngo-pharyngeal cancer. We then analyzed the relative factors affecting their ingestion disorder and dysphagia. Materials and Methods: There were 81 patients with disability certificated and 39 post-surgery patients with tongue/laryngo-pharyngeal cancer who came to visit the Division of Dentistry for Children and Disabled, Kaohsiung Medical University Chun-ho Hospital included in this study. A questionnaire was completed by their caregivers or by themselves and used to investigate and analyze the main topic which were mentioned in the objectives. Results: 80.25% of patients with disability and 87.18% of patients with tongue/laryngo-pharyngeal cancer presented the ingestion disorders and dysphagia during the last year. Liquid was the most common food causing choking in these two groups. The factor of “physical disability”, “cerebral palsy”, and “the posture when eating” is significantly relative to “choking when eating”, and patients who have physical disability were 5.17 times of incidence to those who do not (odds ratio=5.17; 95% CI=0.66 to 2.68), and those who have cerebral palsy were 5.42 times of incidences than those who do not (odds ratio=5.42; 95% CI=0.49 to 3.21). The factor of “radiotherapy” for the patients with tongue/laryngo-pharyngeal cancer is significantly relative to “choking when eating”, and patients with tongue/laryngo-pharyngeal cancer who had received radiotherapy were 4.36 times to those who did not (odds ratio=4.36; 95% CI=0.32 to 3.14). Patients with tongue/laryngo-pharyngeal cancer at stage II, III, and IV were 1.87 (odds ratio=1.87; 95% CI=-1.26 to 2.60), 2.33(odds ratio=2.33; 95% CI=-0.96 to 2.79), and 9.33 times (odds ratio=9.33; 95% CI=0.32 to 4.55) of incidence to those at stage I. The patients at more advanced stage of oro-pharyngeal cancer are more likely to suffer from food choking. Conclusion: The disabilities, such as neuromuscular system disorder like cerebral palsy, stroke etc, often exacerbate the frequency and degree of ingestion disorder and dysphagia of patients with disabilities. The patients with tongue/laryngo-pharyngeal cancer had proper mastication originally, but the invasion of disease, surgical steps, and the radiotherapy would destroy the oral and laryngo-pharyngeal tissues, affecting their mastication and swallow ability to cause choking and dysphagia, and then impact their general health and quality of life. Early detection of ingestion disorder and dysphagia will help them to have rehabilitation earlier, and then to improve ingestion, mastication and swallowing function would be predictive, so we can reach the objective of total patient care, promoting mastication ability, making swallowing smoothly, and completing the whole body healthy.

Abstract:
This chapter covers cancer of the oral cavity and the oropharynx, which includes the base of the tongue, soft palate, tonsils, and back and side walls of the throat. Many important risk factors for oral and oropharyngeal cancer have been identified, and in 2007 the World Health Organization determined there was sufficient evidence to include human papilloma virus (HPV) type 16 as a cause of these cancers. Tobacco and alcohol remain important modifiable risk factors, but the increasing incidence of HPV-associated tumors is now evident. While these tumors are more amenable to treatment than HPV-negative tumors, they are still a source of considerable morbidity and mortality. Moreover, the lack of a precursor lesion and limited data on efficacy of the HPV vaccine in preventing oral HPV infection are barriers to primary and secondary prevention efforts. Dietary patterns high in fruits and vegetables and low in meats may confer some protection.
