Metastatic breast cancer survival improvement restricted by regional disparity: Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results and institutional analysis: 1990 to 2011 390 Cancer January 15, 2020 Original Article Metastatic Breast Cancer Survival Improvement Restricted by Regional Disparity: Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results and Institutional Analysis: 1990 to 2011 Judith A. Malmgren, PhD 1,2; Gregory S. Calip, PharmD, MPH, PhD 3; Mary K. Atwood, CTR4; Musa Mayer, MS, MFA5; and Henry G. Kaplan, MD4 BACKGROUND: The extent of breast cancer outcome disparity can be measured by comparing Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) by region and with institutional cohort (IC) rates. METHODS: Patients who were diagnosed with a first primary, de novo, stage IV breast cancer at ages 25 to 84 years from 1990 to 2011 were studied. The change in 5-year BCSS over time from 1990 to 2011 was compared using the SEER 9 registries (SEER 9) without the Seattle-Puget Sound (S-PS) region (n = 12,121), the S-PS region alone (n = 1931), and the S-PS region IC (n = 261). The IC BCSS endpoint was breast cancer death con- firmed from chart and/or death certificate and cause-specific survival for SEER registries. BCSS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Hazard ratios (HzR) were calculated using Cox proportional-hazards models. RESULTS: For SEER 9 without the S-PS region, 5-year BCSS improved 7% (from 19% to 26%) over time, it improved 14% for the S-PS region (21% to 35%), and it improved 27% for the S-PS IC (29% to 56%). In the IC Cox proportional-hazards model, recent diagnosis year, chemotherapy, surgery, and age <70 years were="" associated="" with="" better="" survival.="" for="" seer="" 9,="" additional="" significant="" factors="" were="" white="" race="" and="" positive="" hormone="" receptor="" status="" and="" s-ps="" region="" was="" associated="" with="" better="" survival="" (hzr,="" 0.87;=""

How the cardiovascular system compensates when an individual goes from a supine position to a standing position-
The cardiovascular system is widely known
as the blood-vascular or the circulatory system. It mainly comprises the heart- a muscular pumping device and a network of vessels called arteries, veins and capillaries. Blood from the heart is pumped through the closed circuit of vessels and it passes through the various circulations of the body.
As the person changes his posture from supine to standing position, his venous return will decrease leading to a decrease in RV and LV stroke volume. Further, the carotid baroreceptor pressure will decrease due to elevation above the hydrostatic indifference point and decreased cardiac output. Activation of baroreceptor reflex occurs which increases the heart rate (by decreasing the vagal tone) and increases peripheral vascular resistance.
Changing the posture from supine to erect will lead to the transfer of blood from the upper body to lower body. An increase in sympathetic tone and decrease in parasympathetic tone is experienced. Pulse rate is increased up to 30% and systemic vascular resistance also increases. The left atrial pressure finds a sharp decrease followed by a decrease in the right atrial pressure. Cardiac output and stroke volume are also decreased.
Baroreceptors refers to the specialized stretch receptors which are located in thin areas of blood vessels and heart chambers. They usually respond to the degree of stretch due to the presence of blood.
