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

846
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...

Types of Biopharmaceutical Studies: Controlled and Non-Controlled Approaches

575
Biopharmaceutical studies constitute a vital field aiming to enhance drug delivery methods and refine therapeutic approaches, drawing upon diverse interdisciplinary knowledge. In research methodologies, the choice between controlled and non-controlled studies significantly influences the study's reliability and accuracy.
Non-controlled studies, commonly employed for initial exploration, lack a control group, rendering them susceptible to biases and external influences. In contrast,...

Cancer

Cancers arise due to mutations in genes involved in the regulation of cell division, which leads to unrestricted cell proliferation. Modern science and medicine have made great strides in the understanding and treatment of cancer, including eradicating cancer in some patients. However, there is still no cure for cancer. This is largely due to the fact that cancer is a large group of many diseases.

Preventive Healthcare Services

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:

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in women, with increasing incidence in those under 50.
  • Graduate students are in an age group with rising breast cancer risk, yet specific research on their knowledge and prevention practices is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a scoping review of global literature on breast cancer knowledge and preventive practices among graduate students.
  • To identify factors associated with breast cancer knowledge and prevention behaviors in this demographic.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic search of four databases (PubMed, CINAHL, APA PsycINFO, Embase) was performed for articles published between 2014 and 2024.
  • Inclusion criteria focused on peer-reviewed articles, graduate students aged 20-50, English language, and various study designs. Data extraction was managed using Covidence.

Main Results:

  • Sixteen studies were included, assessing breast cancer knowledge in 94% and prevention practices in 75%.
  • The majority of studies reported inadequate breast cancer knowledge and low adoption of preventive measures among graduate students.
  • Educational background, healthcare access, and socioeconomic factors were significantly linked to knowledge and practice levels.

Conclusions:

  • Findings indicate a critical need for tailored educational programs to enhance breast cancer awareness and promote early detection and prevention among graduate students.
  • Interventions should consider socioeconomic and educational determinants of health behaviors in this population.
