Cancer Prevention

6.5K
Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Gastrointestinal (GI) diagnostic studies are pivotal in confirming, ruling out, diagnosing, or staging various diseases, including cancers. Following diagnosis, allocating time for discussions with the patient and providing informational resources is crucial. Diagnostic assessments of the GI tract often occur in outpatient settings like endoscopy suites or GI labs. Preparation for these tests may include dietary restrictions, fasting, liquid bowel preparations, laxatives, enemas, and the...

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Oncology
  • Public Health Policy

Background:

  • Colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence is rising in Asia, necessitating updated screening guidelines.
  • Asian CRC epidemiology, anatomical distribution, and mortality mirror Western patterns.
  • Trends include proximal polyp migration and prevalence of flat/depressed lesions.

Framework:

  • Consensus recommendations developed via literature review and modified Delphi process.
  • Target age for CRC screening initiation is 50 years.
  • Identified risk factors include male gender, smoking, obesity, and family history.

Implementation:

  • Recommended screening methods: Faecal occult blood test (FOBT), flexible sigmoidoscopy, and colonoscopy.
  • FOBT is the preferred initial screening in resource-limited settings.
  • Endoscopic polypectomy for 5-9 mm polyps; repeat colonoscopy in 10 years if negative.

Implications:

  • CRC screening should be a national health priority across Asian countries.
  • Further research needed on CRC screening barriers, public education, and primary care integration.
  • Ongoing discussion regarding the role of nurses in endoscopic screening procedures.
