Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women in the world, with more than two million new cases of breast cancer every year. This disease is associated with numerous clinical and genetic characteristics. In recent years, machine learning technology has been increasingly applied to the medical field, including predicting the risk of malignant tumors such as breast cancer. Based on clinical and targeted sequencing data of 1980 primary breast cancer samples, this article aimed to analyze these data and predict living conditions after breast cancer. After data engineering, feature selection, and comparison of machine learning methods, the light gradient boosting machine model was found the best with hyperparameter tuning (precision = 0.818, recall = 0.816, f1 score = 0.817, roc-auc = 0.867). And the top 5 determinants were clinical features age at diagnosis, Nottingham Prognostic Index, cohort and genetic features rheb, nr3c1. The study shed light on rational allocation of medical resources and provided insights to early prevention, diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer with the identified risk clinical and genetic factors.

Breast cancers classified T4 according to the TNM code are frequent in Burkina Faso. A better knowledge of these cancers would help to better organize the fight against breast cancer in general. We conducted this study to present the clinical and prognostic aspects of T4 breast cancer in Ouagadougou. It was a descriptive retrospective study based on the medical record of patients received from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021 in the cancer department of Yalgado Ouedraogo University Hospital. Patients followed for histologically confirmed breast cancer who were classified in the cT4 category of the TNM code 8e edition were included. We collected a total of 286 patients. Non-salaried patients accounted for 90.56%. In this study, 53.3% of patients lived in urban area and 36.7% in rural area. Menopausal patients accounted for 56.8% of cases. One hundred and thirty-three (46.5%) patients were overweight or obese and 121 (42.3%) patients had a normal weight. The average consultation time, which is the time between the first signs and consultation in a specialized center, was 12 months, with a median of 11 months. According to category T of the TNM code, 19 patients (6.6%) were classified T4d, 176 (61.5%) were classified T4c, 69 (24.1%) were classified T4b and 22 (7.7%) T4a. One hundred and twenty patients (42%) were metastatic. The median overall survival of all patients in our sample was 20 months. In univariate analysis, metastatic status was risk factor for death, while obesity and surgery were protective factors. In multivariate analysis, obesity, surgery and metastatic status were independently associated with survival; obesity and surgery were protective factors. Survival is poor due to advanced stages and difficulties in the management of these cancers. Measures to facilitate access to care would improve the prognosis of these cancers.

Background: In Sudan, the common endocrine therapy tamoxifen is prescribed to HR-positive patients, which is associated with a variety of complications such as hot flashes, vaginal discharge, and vaginal dryness. Objective: This study aimed to determine the gynecological side effects of tamoxifen among Sudanese women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer in Khartoum, Sudan. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted at Alzara Hospital in Al Amal Toure Revere, Sudan. A convenience sample of individuals previously diagnosed with breast cancer attended refer clinic. From October 2020 to September 2021, all patients attending were checked for eligibility. Results: A total of 100 patients were enrolled in the study; 60% of patients reported increased vaginal secretions after taking the drug, 28% reported normal vaginal secretions with no change, and 11% reported decreased secretions after taking the medication, while 22% developed vaginal bleeding, and 22% of the ultrasound results revealed endometrial masses among the study patients. Also, 54 percent of female patients experienced hot flashes after taking the medication, and 12% of women missed some doses of treatment. Conclusion: Tamoxifen results in several gynecological side effects in women with breast cancer. A high percentage of women in the study developed hot flashes, vaginal bleeding, and discharge, in addition to having ultrasound results showing endometrial masses among them.
