Abstract

The number of 30-year-old or younger patients with breast cancer is increasing. The aim was to describe the clinicopathological features and prognosis of 30-year-old or younger patients with breast cancer. We reviewed the records of 1,406 consecutive patients aged ≤50 years with first diagnosis of invasive breast cancer referred to surgery from March 2001 to March 2009. A total of 105 patients were aged ≤30 years (group I) and 1,301 were aged 31-50 years (group II). Compared with patients of group II, patients of group I had a higher percentage of tumors classified as estrogen receptors (ER) negative (P < 0.001) and progesterone receptors (PR) negative (P = 0.043), with a Ki-67 labeling index ≥20% of the cells (P = 0.011). There was no difference between the two groups for pT and pN, histology, endocrine therapy, and chemotherapy. The 5-year survival of group I was 67.5% as compared with 75.3% for group II (P = 0.003). Compared with patients aged between 31 and 50 years, patients aged ≤30 years have a greater chance of having an endocrine-unresponsive tumor and a significantly poor prognosis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 October 2020.
All research outputs
#13,076,746
of 22,789,076 outputs
Outputs from World Journal of Surgical Oncology
#339
of 2,042 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#170,272
of 357,813 outputs
Outputs of similar age from World Journal of Surgical Oncology
#18
of 150 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,789,076 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,042 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.1. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 357,813 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 51% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 150 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
