This article presents a proteomic dataset generated from a comparative analysis of the exoproteome of Staphylococcus saprophyticus, ATCC 15305, 7108 and 9325 strains. The extract of secreted proteins were obtained after incubation of stationary phase cells in BHI medium. All samples were submitted to nano-ESI-UPLC-MSE, and the spectrum obtained was processed and analyzed by ProteinLynx Global Server (PLGS), Uniprot and Pedant databases, for identification, annotation and functional classification of proteins. Fold changes and protein relative abundances were properly reported. This report is related to the research article entitled “The exoproteome profiles of three Staphylococcus saprophyticus strains reveal diversity in protein secretion contents” (Oliveira et al., 2018). The proteomic data generated have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange Consortium, via the PRIDE partner repository, with a project number PXD008643, https://www.ebi.ac.uk/pride/archive/projects/PXD008643.
Objective: Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women worldwide. Several studies highlight the correlation between delayed treatment and high mortality. However, few researchers have addressed the main reasons for long delays in the healthcare system. This study aims to analyze different aspects influencing the postponement of treatment in Brazil. Methodology: An ecological approach using the secondary data from the Oncology Panel of the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS). The data were collected on February 13, 2020, and included the diagnoses of breast cancer (ICD-10: C50 and D05) from 2015 to 2020. The aspects analyzed included the waiting time for the first treatment, procedure, staging, and region. Anatomopathological diagnoses made after a surgical procedure were not included. Results: According to the Brazilian laws, oncological patients need to start treatment within 60 days (5). However, the data reveal that only 45.22% of breast cancer patients (stages 2–4) started the treatment within 60 days. This is more alarming when looking at the procedures. Over half of the patients submitted to chemotherapy and 76.8% submitted to radiotherapy received their treatment after 60 days from the diagnosis. Interestingly, our geographic analysis did not reveal significant disparities among regions. The lower-income regions had 49.01–57.07% of patients treated after the recommended time frame. The higher-income regions had values from 43.44% to 54.44%. Conclusion: Despite the knowledge that later treatments result in worse outcomes and the legal right of earlier treatment, our results show a current controversial frame in Brazil. Most patients take longer than recommended, and the worst scenario is for radiotherapy patients. No substantial differences were found among lower- and higher-income regions, although it is likely that further analysis with different approaches could be more sensitive to deny or confirm this assumption.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
