The Association of Health Literacy with BreastCancer Knowledge, Perception and Screening Behavior The incidence of breastcancer among Iranian women is increasing, and 70% of patients are diagnosed at advanced stages. The current study aimed at evaluating the association of health literacy (HL) with breastcancer knowledge, perception, and screening behavior in women.The current cross- sectional, descriptive study was conducted on 250 women who referred to health centers in Zahedan, Iran. Data (...) ), and with perceived susceptibility.Interventions to enhance breastcancer knowledge and screening should notice the HL of women.
Automated and Clinical Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System Density Measures Predict Risk of Screen-Detected and Interval Cancers. In 30 states, women who have had screening mammography are informed of their breast density on the basis of Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) density categories estimated subjectively by radiologists. Variation in these clinical categories across and within radiologists has led to discussion about whether automated BI-RADS density should (...) be reported instead.To determine whether breastcancer risk and detection are similar for automated and clinical BI-RADS density measures.Case-control.San Francisco Mammography Registry and Mayo Clinic.1609 women with screen-detected cancer, 351 women with interval invasive cancer, and 4409 matched control participants.Automated and clinical BI-RADS density assessed on digital mammography at 2 time points from September 2006 to October 2014, interval and screen-detected breastcancer risk, and mammography
A functional genomic screen in vivo identifies CEACAM5 as a clinically relevant driver of breastcancer metastasis Tumor cells disseminate early in tumor development making metastasis-prevention strategies difficult. Identifying proteins that promote the outgrowth of disseminated tumor cells may provide opportunities for novel therapeutic strategies. Despite multiple studies demonstrating that the mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition (MET) is critical for metastatic colonization, key regulators (...) that initiate this transition remain unknown. We serially passaged lung metastases from a primary triple negative breastcancer xenograft to the mammary fat pads of recipient mice to enrich for gene expression changes that drive metastasis. An unbiased transcriptomic signature of potential metastatic drivers was generated, and a high throughput gain-of-function screen was performed in vivo to validate candidates. Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5 (CEACAM5) was identified
The overestimation and the inappropriate promotion of the benefits of mammographic screening in breastcancer research and interventions in the Gaza Strip. There has been extensive debate about whether mammographic screening has done more good than harm. Recent reviews showed that women who undergo mammographic screening are more likely to have a tumour that was an overdiagnosis and therefore would not cause them problems. In the Gaza Strip, a strong forum of people advocate an increase (...) women have low survival rates because of the poor availability of mammography. Only three study groups mentioned harmful effects of mammographic screening. All educational materials had clear information on the benefits of mammographic screening but minimal information on its harms.Research in the Gaza Strip overestimated the reduction in breastcancer mortality that can be attributable to mammographic screening, and this would encourage women to undergo screening without knowing that it could harm
Association of Screening and Treatment With BreastCancer Mortality by Molecular Subtype in US Women, 2000-2012. Given recent advances in screening mammography and adjuvant therapy (treatment), quantifying their separate and combined effects on US breastcancer mortality reductions by molecular subtype could guide future decisions to reduce disease burden.To evaluate the contributions associated with screening and treatment to breastcancer mortality reductions by molecular subtype based (...) , overall, and ER/ERBB2-specific breastcancer mortality rates from 2000 to 2012 for women aged 30 to 79 years relative to the estimated mortality rate in the absence of screening and treatment (baseline rate); mortality reductions were apportioned to screening and treatment.In 2000, the estimated reduction in overall breastcancer mortality rate was 37% (model range, 27%-42%) relative to the estimated baseline rate in 2000 of 64 deaths (model range, 56-73) per 100 000 women: 44% (model range, 35%-60

. An alternative approach, for many of these lesions, is thorough sampling/excision by vacuum- assisted biopsy techniques to exclude the presence of co-existing carcinoma. This would potentially reduce the benign open biopsy rate whilst maintaining accuracy of cancer diag- nosis.

BreastCancerScreening Behaviors of First Degree Relatives of Women Receiving BreastCancer Treatment and the Affecting Factors First-degree relatives of women with breastcancer are under higher risk when compared with the general population. The aim of this study is to evaluate breastcancerscreening behaviors of women who are first-degree relatives of women with breastcancer and factors affecting these behaviors.This descriptive study included 240 patient relatives, who agreed (...) to participate in the study through contact with first-degree relatives of 133 patients who were receiving breastcancer treatment at the Oncology and Chemotherapy unit of an university hospital in Turkey. Data were collected using the "Descriptive Characteristics Form," which consisted of socio-demographic characteristics, health history, breastcancer risk level and health beliefs as well as the "BreastCancerScreening Behavior Evaluation Form".Out of the subjects, 17% reported doing breast self
“Thanks for Letting Us All Share Your Mammogram Experience Virtuallyâ€: Developing a Web-Based Hub for BreastCancerScreening The decision around whether to attend breastcancerscreening can often involve making sense of confusing and contradictory information on its risks and benefits. The Word of Mouth Mammogram e-Network (WoMMeN) project was established to create a Web-based resource to support decision making regarding breastcancerscreening. This paper presents data from our user (...) to explore the advantages and limitations of this approach. The second objective was to analyze what women want from a Web-based resource for breastcancer screening.We recruited a user design group on Facebook and conducted a survey within the group, asking questions about design considerations for a Web-based breastcancerscreening hub. Although the membership of the Facebook group varied over time, there were 71 members in the Facebook group at the end point of analysis. We next conducted a framework

The multicenter trial will enroll 100,000 (...) The WISDOM Study: breaking the deadlock in the breastcancerscreening debate There are few medical issues that have generated as much controversy as screening for breastcancer. In science, controversy often stimulates innovation; however, the intensely divisive debate over mammographic screening has had the opposite effect and has stifled progress. The same two questions-whether it is better to screen annually or bi-annually, and whether women are best served by beginning screening at 40
Cost-Effectiveness of BreastCancerScreening in Turkey, a Developing Country: Results from Bahçeşehir Mammography Screening Project We used the results from the first three screening rounds of Bahcesehir Mammography Screening Project (BMSP), a 10-year (2009-2019) and the first organized population-based screening program implemented in a county of Istanbul, Turkey, to assess the potential cost-effectiveness of a population-based mammography screening program in Turkey.Two screening (...) strategies were compared: BMSP (includes three biennial screens for women between 40-69) and Turkish National BreastCancer Registry Program (TNBCRP) which includes no organized population-based screening. Costs were estimated using direct data from the BMSP project and the reimbursement rates of Turkish Social Security Administration. The life-years saved by BMSP were estimated using the stage distribution observed with BMSP and TNBCRP.A total of 67 women (out of 7234 screened women) were diagnosed
Evaluation on the Practice and Behaviour of Women Applied for Gynecology Outpatient Clinics About Screening Methods for Early Diagnosis of BreastCancerBreast self-examination (BSE), clinical breast exam (CBE), mammography and ultrasound imaging (UI) are screening methods used for early diagnosis of breastcancer (BC). The purpose of this study is to put forth the utilization frequency of these screening methods among women presenting to the gynecology outpatient clinics and the relation (...) mammography and CBE are at less-than-ideal levels. In this context, it is apparent that breastcancerscreening methods are needed to be introduced and guidance about their application frequency should be provided for women in gynecology outpatient clinics.

in radiological surveillance (retrospective mammographic review) of interval breastcancers, this form of surveillance consistently reveals that the majority of interval cancers represent either true interval or occult cancers that were not visible on the index mammographic screen; approximately 20-25% of interval breastcancers are classified as having been missed (false-negatives). The biological characteristics of interval breastcancers show that they have relatively worse tumour prognostic (...) The epidemiology, radiology and biological characteristics of interval breastcancers in population mammography screening An interval breastcancer is a cancer that emerges following a negative mammographic screen. This overview describes the epidemiology, and the radiological and biological characteristics of interval breastcancers in population mammography screening.
