Middeldorp 5 Abstract Among all head and neck (H&N) cancers, nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) represents a distinct entity regarding epidemiology, clinical presentation, biological markers, carcinogenic risk factors, and prognostic factors. NPC is endemic in certain regions of the world, especially in Southeast Asia, and has a poor prognosis. In Indonesia, the recorded mean prevalence is 6.2/100 000, with 13 000 yearly new NPC cases, but otherwise little is documented on NPC in Indonesia. Here, we report on a group of 1121 NPC patients diagnosed and treated at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia between 1996 and 2005. We studied NPC incidence among all H&N cancer cases (n =6000) observed in that period, focusing on age and gender distribution, the ethnic background of patients, and the disease etiology. We also analyzed most prevalent signs and symptoms and staging of NPC patients at first presentation. In this study population, NPC was the most frequent H&N cancer (28.4%), with a male鄄to鄄 female ratio of 2.4, and was endemic in the Javanese population. Interestingly, NPC appeared to affect patients at a relatively young age (20% juvenile cases) without a bimodal age distribution. Mostly, NPC initiated in the fossa of Rosenmuller and spreaded intracranially or locally as a mass in the head. Occasionally, NPC developed at the submucosal level spreading outside the anatomic limits of the nasopharynx. At presentation, NPC associated with hearing problems, serous otitis media, tinnitus, nasal obstruction, anosmia, bleeding, difficulty in swallowing and dysphonia, and even eye symptoms with diplopia and pain. The initial diagnosis is difficult to make because early signs and symptoms of NPC are not specific to the disease. Early鄄ag e Epstein鄄B arr virus (EBV) infection combined with frequent exposure to environmental carcinogenic co鄄fa ctors is suggested to cause NPC development. Undifferentiated NPC is the most frequent histological type and is closely associated with EBV. Expression of the EBV鄄en coded latent membrane protein 1(LMP1) oncogene in biopsy material was compared between NPC patients of < 30 years old and those of 30 years old, matched for sex and tumor stage. Higher LMP1 expression in 逸 patients of <30 years old was observed, which was related to more locoregional progressivity. Increased medical awareness of prevailing early stage signs and symptoms coupled to use of EBV鄄re lated diagnostic tumor markers may lead to down鄄sta ging and timely treatment to improve survival of patients with this aggressive disease.

    和 食 Traditional Dietary Cultures of the Japanese Itadaki-masu WASHOKU - cultures that should be preserved What exactly is WASHOKU? Maybe even Japanese people haven’t thought seriously about it very much. Typical washoku at home is usually comprised of cooked rice, miso soup, some main and side dishes and pickles. A set menu of grilled fish at a downtown diner is also a type of washoku. Recipes using cooked rice as the main ingredient such as curry and rice or sushi should also be considered as a type of washoku. Of course, washoku includes some noodle and mochi dishes. The world of traditional washoku is extensive. In the first place, the term WASHOKU does not refer solely to a dish or a cuisine. For instance, let’s take a look at osechi- ryori, a set of traditional dishes for New Year. The dishes are prepared to celebrate the coming of the new year, and with a wish to be able to spend the coming year soundly and happily. In other words, the religion and the mindset of Japanese people are expressed in osechi-ryori, otoso (rice wine for New Year) and ozohni (soup with mochi), as well as the ambience of the people sitting around the table with these dishes. Food culture has been developed with the background of the natural environment surrounding people and culture that is unique to the country or the region. The Japanese archipelago runs widely north and south, surrounded by sea. 75% of the national land is mountainous areas. Under the monsoonal climate, the four seasons show distinct differences.

Greatly mourned by his wife but without children, Law had died in a private hospital of the nasopharyngeal cancer so prevalent on the southern coast, caused by a lifetime's inordinate consumption of the dried salt fish he had loved so much ..... Timothy Mo, in Sour Sweet (p. 43, Abacus, 1983) Novelists rush in where epidemiologists fear to tread. The point of the above quote is not just to note that literary license provides for a degree of freedom not available to epidemiologists, but also that the salted fish hypothesis in NPc·etiology was sufficiently known, if not among the general populace of southern China, then at least among the literary public. This may not have had much impact on the case-control findings on salted fish consumption, but it does argue for some caution in appraising that literature. I wish to record my appreciation and gratitude to Dr. Nancy Mueller, my thesis committee chairperson, and to Dr. Walter Willett and Dr. Anastasios Tsiatis, who also served on iv the committee. Their support and counsel, together with that of Dr. Dimitrios Trichopoulos, Dr. Fran Cook, Dr. c.c.

  • Part I Review of Capture Fisheries and Aquaculture in the Kyrgyz Republic
    Part I Review of capture fisheries and aquaculture in the Kyrgyz Republic 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Kyrgyz Republic (or Kyrgyzstan) is a mountainous country in Central Asia. It is rich in water resources compared with the neighbouring countries and regions. However, the fisheries and aquaculture sector is poorly developed. Total annual fish production is 71.4 tonnes. Even when the 3 000 tonnes imported from neighbouring countries is included, annual fish consumption in the country amounts to less than 1 kg per capita, compared with 16.5 kg on a global level. Kyrgyzstan was part of the former Union of the Soviet Socialist Republics (former USSR) until 1991, and the fisheries sector was much more developed in the 1980s than at present. In the 1980s, national production reached 1 400 tonnes/year and large volumes of affordable fish for the population reached the country from other parts of the former USSR. The dissolution of the former USSR was followed by dramatic increases in prices of imported products including fish feeds and technology needed for aquaculture, causing fish prices to increase considerably for consumers. The economic difficulties that came in the wake of independence resulted in a dramatic decline in governmental support to fisheries and aquaculture. Most state-owned fish farms were privatized, and there was no longer an adequate budget available to undertake research, gather statistics or monitor the activities of the fisheries. In regard to capture fisheries, the most important management tool, since Soviet times, has been restocking with various commercial fish species (most introduced from watersheds elsewhere in the Russian Federation and Central Asia).

  • Higher Incidence of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma in Some Regions in the World Confers for Interplay Between Genetic Factors and External Stimuli
    Drug Discoveries & Therapeutics. 2017; 11(4):170-180. 170 Review DOI: 10.5582/ddt.2017.01030 Higher incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in some regions in the world confers for interplay between genetic factors and external stimuli Nabanita Roy Chattopadhyay, Piyanki Das, Koustav Chatterjee, Tathagata Choudhuri* Department of Biotechnology, Visva-Bharati, Siksha Bhavana, Santiniketan, West Bengal, India. Summary Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a rare variety of head and neck cancers. The risk factors include three major causes: genetic factors, viral infection, and environmental and dietary factors. The types of NPC show strong ethnic and geographic variations. The keratinizing and non-keratinizing types are prevalent in the lower incidence regions like North America and Europe; whereas the undifferentiated type is mostly found in the regions with higher incidences like China, North Africa, Arctic, and Nagaland of North-East India. These suggest a possible major role of the internal genetic factors for generation and promotion of this disease. Viral infections might accelerate the process of carcinogenesis by helping in cellular proliferation and loss of apoptosis. Diet and other environmental factors promote these neoplastic processes and further progression of the disease occurs. Keywords: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma, incidence, ethnic variation, undifferentiated NPC, North- East India 1. Introduction classification, and staging of NPC are done by microscopic examinations as well as by searching for Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a rare cancer which the presence of distant metastases. In 2005, the updated starts at the mucosal epithelium of the nasopharynx edition of WHO classification of NPC describes three and in the minor salivary glands present there. It is a types of NPC: keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma, box-like chamber located near the base of the skull and non-keratinizing carcinoma, and basaloid squamous lying above the soft palate of the mouth; and it covers cell carcinoma (2).
