In the ACEI group, physical functioning and fatigue score changes were significant 1 and 2 months after treatment. The mean of fatigue score decreased significantly in the placebo group. Overall, global health status scores significantly increased in both groups, but other items of QoL did not change significantly. CONCLUSION Overall, our results showed that Captopril does not have a significant positive effect on QoL of patients with cancer cachexia..BACKGROUND System delay (SD) is a leading cause of advanced stage of disease and poor prognosis among Brazilian breast cancer patients. METHODS Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analysis were used to identify variables that contributed to SD among 128 breast cancer patients. Time intervals between first medical consultation and treatment initiation were compared among patients of two referral centres Patients of a referral centre with outsourced (FAP), respectively, integrated (HNL) diagnostic services. RESULTS Women who used a specialized private clinic at the beginning of patient flow had an 2.32 fold increased chance (95% CI 1.17 - 4.60; p = 0.016) of hospital admission within 90 days after first medical consultation, compared to women who used a public health care provider (HCP). Of 73 and 34 patients of the FAP hospital and the HNL, respectively, 10 (13.7%) and 11 (32.5%) used one HCP prior to hospital admission (p = 0.000). The median time between first medical consultation and treatment initiation was 150 days. The median time between first medical consultation and hospital admission was 136.0 and 52.0 days for patients of the FAP hospital, respectively the HNL (p less then 0.050). The median time between first medical consultation and diagnostic mammography was 36.5 and 23.0 days for patients from the FAP hospital and the HNL (p less then
