Purpose: Lifestyle factors such as smoking, alcohol, body weight, physical activity, and diet quality have been associated with the risk of pancreatic cancer. However, studies of their combined association in women are limited. Methods: Data on smoking habits, alcohol intake, diet composition, recreational physical activity, body weight, and waist circumference, obtained at recruitment for 136,945 postmenopausal women (aged 50–79 years) participating in the Women’s Health Initiative study, were [...]

Background: Evidence on associations between dietary intake and risk of breast cancer subtypes is limited and inconsistent. We evaluated associations of fruit, vegetable, meat, and fish consumption with risk of breast cancer overall and by molecular subtype in the Vietnamese Breast Cancer Study (VBCS). Method: VBCS includes 476 incident breast cancer cases and 454 age-matched controls. Dietary habits over the past five years were assessed by in-person interviews using a validated food frequency [...]

Menée à partir de données 2002-2013 de l'Assurance maladie australienne portant sur 9 367 patientes atteintes d'un cancer épithélial de l'ovaire (âge au diagnostic : au moins 50 ans), cette étude analyse l'association entre une utilisation de bisphosphonates azotés et le risque de développer la maladie, par type histologique

Tuesley, Karen M ; Webb, Penelope M ; Protani, Melinda M ; Spilsbury, Katrina ; Pearson, Sallie-Anne ; Coory, Michael D ; Donovan, Peter ; Steer, Christopher ; Stewart, Louise M ; Pandeya, Nirmala ; Jordan, Susan J

There are few readily modifiable risk factors for epithelial ovarian cancer; pre-clinical studies suggest bisphosphonates could have chemo-preventive actions. Our study aimed to assess the association between use of nitrogen-based bisphosphonate medicine and risk of epithelial ovarian cancer, overall and by histotype.We conducted a case-control study nested within a large linked administrative dataset including all Australian women enrolled for Medicare, Australia’s universal health insurance [...]

A partir d'une revue systématique de la littérature publiée jusqu'en février 2021 (56 articles), cette étude analyse les aspects éthiques et juridiques de la vaccination non genrée contre le papillomavirus humain

A review of ethical and legal aspects of gender-neutral human papillomavirus vaccination

Logel, Margaret ; Laurie, Cassandra ; El-Zein, Mariam ; Guichon, Juliet ; Franco, Eduardo L.

While launching a campaign to eliminate cervical cancer, the World Health Organization called to halt human papillomavirus (HPV) gender-neutral vaccination (GNV) because of limited vaccine supply, raising ethical and legal questions about female-only vaccination versus GNV. We identified ethical and legal aspects of HPV GNV by searching MEDLINE for records up to February 19, 2021. We also provided an overview of HPV vaccines, the evolution of HPV vaccine recommendations in North America, and a [...]

A partir d'une revue systématique de la littérature publiée entre janvier 2006 et décembre 2017 (73 articles), cette étude analyse, en Chine, les attitudes à l'égard de la vaccination contre le papillomavirus humain ainsi que les facteurs entravants

Acceptability of and barriers to human papillomavirus vaccination in China: A systematic review of the Chinese and English scientific literature

Wang, Du ; Wu, Jing ; Du, Jianshu ; Ong, Haley ; Tang, Biwei ; Dozier, Marshall ; Weller, David ; Campbell, Christine

Introduction: Widespread adoption of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine will require population acceptance and tailoring of immunisation services to community needs and preferences. We examined peer-reviewed publications on the acceptability of and barriers to the HPV vaccine across China. Methods: We searched English (MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science) and Chinese (CNKI, VIP, Wanfang data) databases between 1 January 2006 and 31 December 2017. We adopted a narrative approach for data [...]

Mené aux Etats-Unis entre 2014 et 2020 sur 249 femmes enceintes ou ayant récemment accouché, cet essai randomisé évalue l'intérêt d'ajouter une incitation financière aux conseils de bonnes pratiques pour augmenter l'abstinence tabagique et réduire les risques gestationnels

We report results from a randomized clinical trial examining financial incentives for smoking cessation among 249 pregnant and newly postpartum women. Participants included 169 women assigned to best practices (BP) or BP plus financial incentives (BP + FI) for smoking cessation available through 12-weeks postpartum. A third condition included 80 never-smokers (NS) sociodemographically-matched to women who smoked. Trial setting was Burlington, Vermont, USA, January 2014 through January 2020. [...]

Mené aux Etats-Unis entre 2017 et 2018 sur 550 fumeurs vivant en milieu rural (âge moyen : 38,4 ans ; 25 % d'hommes), cet essai randomisé évalue l'acceptabilité et l'efficacité d'une application mobile basée une thérapie d'acceptation et d'engagement (ACT) pour l'aide au sevrage tabagique

Efficacy of an acceptance and commitment therapy-based smartphone application for helping rural populations quit smoking: Results from the iCanQuit randomized trial

Santiago-Torres, Margarita ; Mull, Kristin E. ; Sullivan, Brianna M. ; Ferketich, Amy ; Bricker, Jonathan B.

Limited access to evidence-based smoking cessation interventions among rural populations contributes to high rates of cigarette smoking and poor cessation outcomes. Yet, accessible digital interventions for cessation focusing on rural populations are lacking. In a secondary analysis, we determined the acceptability and efficacy of an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)-based smartphone application (iCanQuit) relative to a U.S. Clinical Practice Guidelines (USCPG)-based smartphone [...]
