Description
Summary:Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer with the maximum number of cases worldwide. Early diagnosis of the cancer is necessary for an effective treatment plan. Due to a lack of awareness, diagnosis of breast cancer at an early stage is difficult. The present study aims to evaluate and compare the haematological and biochemical profiles of the early and late-stage breast cancer patient's data records. A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 56 breast cancer patients at the Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University India. Patient data records were obtained and haematological and biochemical parameters were arranged on an Excel sheet and analyzed. Random blood sugar (RBS), alkaline phosphates (ALP) levels, and urea levels were significantly high in patients with late-stage breast cancer (Tumor stage III and IV). At the advanced stage of breast cancer hemoglobin level falls and patients became anemic. Further large-scale studies with a greater number of patient data can help establish these parameters individually or in combination as prognostic and diagnostic markers in breast cancer staging.
