RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To map the evidence available in the literature on the health-related quality of life of women with breast cancer using hormone therapy. DATA SOURCES: This review followed the Joanna Briggs Institute methodological recommendations and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews reporting guidelines. Searches were performed in nine databases using descriptors, synonyms and keywords; grey literature was also included. The review protocol was registered with the Open Science Framework under doi: http://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/347FM. Inclusion criteria were established according to the Population, Concept, and Context strategy. The selection of studies was performed by two independent reviewers with the aid of RAYYAN software and disagreements were resolved by a third reviewer. The main information from the included articles was grouped into textual categories and presented by means of a narrative synthesis. DATA SUMMARY: A total of 5419 records were identified, of which 42 studies fully met the eligibility criteria. Most were multicenter studies (42.9%) and randomized controlled trials (62%). Most studies addressed anastrozole (39.5%), letrozole (34.2%), and tamoxifen (26.3%), which were studied alone or in combination. The most widely used health-related quality-of-life assessment tool was the EORTC-QLQ-C30. The concomitant use of hormone therapy and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors 4 and 6 showed improvement in health-related quality of life. CONCLUSION: In recent years there has been an increase in studies focused on health-related quality of life, and the evidence pointed to relevant information on health-related quality of life and the use of endocrine therapy, tamoxifen in combination with aromatase inhibitors, as well as aromatase inhibitor alone and the use of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association of carotenoids and retinol (vitamin A) with intestinal barrier function in children in an urban community in Fortaleza, northeastern Brazil. METHODS: Descriptive analysis of serum carotenoids and retinol concentrations with intestinal barrier function in 102 children from an urban community, July 2000 to August 2001. RESULTS: The weight for height z score (wasting) showed that 19.6% (20/102) had mild malnutrition (-1 to -2 z score). All of the children's serum retinol concentrations were determined and none were severely deficient (< or =0.35 micromol/L), 2.9% (3/102) were moderately (0.36-0.70 micromol/L) deficient, 20.6% (21/102) were mildly (0.71-1.05 micromol/L) deficient; 76.5% (78/102) were vitamin A sufficient (>1.05 micromol/L). The lactulose:mannitol (L/M) ratio was elevated (> or =0.0864) in 49% (47/97) of children when compared with healthy children with normal L/M ratio (<0.0864) in the same geographic area. Serum carotenoids, lutein, beta-cryptoxanthin and beta-carotene showed significant inverse correlations with the L/M ratio, but not lutein after adjusting for age. Acute phase proteins (C-reactive protein and alpha-acid glycoprotein) were significantly inversely correlated with retinol but not with carotenoids. Retinol and retinol-binding protein were not significantly associated with L/M ratio. CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest a disruption of intestinal barrier function in the paracellular pathway with low serum concentrations of carotenoids. Carotenoids may provide a better marker for disrupted intestinal barrier function than retinol-binding protein or retinol.
