Cancer Prevention02:59

Cancer Prevention

8.7K
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.

Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

844
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Preventive Healthcare Services01:30

Preventive Healthcare Services

2.3K
Preventive healthcare services keep people healthy via frequent check-ups, screening, and counseling. They primarily aid in disease prevention rather than treating an acute or chronic illness. Preventive treatment also keeps individuals productive and energetic, allowing them to work well into their retirement years. Examples of preventive care services include:

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine02:50

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

6.4K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention01:26

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

15.9K
Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Cancer Research
  • Implementation Science

Background:

  • Oral, cervical, and breast cancers are leading causes of morbidity and mortality in India.
  • These cancers are largely preventable or treatable with early detection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline implementation science research priorities for cancer prevention and control in India.
  • To address both community and health system-level challenges.

Main Methods:

  • Priorities were identified using a framework based on implementation science literature.
  • Framework integrated the World Health Organization's definition of health systems.
  • Considered both community-level ('pull') and health system-level ('push' and 'infrastructure') issues.

Main Results:

  • Community-level priorities include enhancing public awareness, understanding, and addressing fear/stigma.
  • Health system priorities involve disseminating evidence-based practices and testing point-of-care technologies.
  • Other priorities include optimizing service delivery, financing models, and strengthening the health workforce.

Conclusions:

  • Accelerating cancer prevention and treatment efforts in India is critical.
  • Implementation science research is essential to generate evidence for this acceleration.
