Menée en Chine auprès d'une cohorte de 71 841 femmes (durée médiane de suivi : 18,1 ans), cette étude analyse l'association entre la consommation de thé et le risque de cancer du foie (253 cas)

Cumulative consumption of tea is associated with lower risk of liver cancer: updated results from the Shanghai Women’s Health Study

Li, Zhuo-Ying ; Tan, Yu-Ting ; Liu, Da-Ke ; Gao, Li-Feng ; Li, Hong-Lan ; Xiang, Yong-Bing

Prospective epidemiological studies have provided limited evidence for an association between tea consumption and liver cancer risk. Based on a population-based prospective cohort study in middle-aged Chinese women, we investigated the association between tea consumption and the risk of primary liver cancer. Detailed information on tea drinking habits and other potential confounders was obtained at the baseline interview. Incident liver cancer cases were identified through record linkage with [...]

A partir d'une revue systématique de la littérature publiée jusqu'en août 2021 (27 études), cette méta-analyse évalue l'association entre une consommation de fruits et de légumes et le risque de cancer de l'endomètre, en fonction de leurs composants bioactifs et de leurs micronutriments

The influence of dietary vegetables and fruits on endometrial cancer risk: a meta-analysis of observational studies

Lu, Y. Thanh ; Gunathilake, Madhawa ; Kim, Jeongseon

Fruits and vegetables store many bioactive compounds and micronutrients, making their consumption ideal for maintaining good health. A previous meta-analysis in 2007 provided evidence that high vegetable and cruciferous vegetable intake might help prevent endometrial cancer (EC) development. The current study purposely explored the favorable effects of vegetables, fruits, and their other specific types using a review of the most recent papers. We conducted a systematic search through August [...]

Cet article fait le point sur les avantages des politiques permettant un meilleur approvisionnement en vaccins anti-papillomavirus humain et un schéma vaccinal à dose unique dans les pays ayant un accès limité voire inexistant au dépistage et/ou aux traitements du cancer du col de l'utérus

Public health opportunities resulting from sufficient HPV vaccine supply and a single-dose vaccination schedule

Kreimer, Aimée R ; Cernuschi, Tania ; Rees, Helen ; Brotherton, Julia M L ; Porras, Carolina ; Schiller, John

Many countries with the highest burdens of cervical cancer have not yet offered HPV vaccines to the majority of their age-eligible girls, who as adults also have limited or no access to effective cervical cancer screening or treatment. There are now two complementary developments that could make HPV vaccines more accessible and affordable: 1) the current and projected increases in HPV vaccine supply and 2) the permissive recommendation for single-dose HPV vaccination schedules. This change in [...]

Menée à partir de données d'enquêtes indiennes et à l'aide d'une modélisation, cette étude estime l'effet, sur l'incidence du cancer du col de l'utérus, d'un vaccin quadrivalent anti-HPV à dose unique par rapport à un calendrier vaccinal à deux doses ou à l'absence de vaccination

Evidence-based impact projections of single-dose human papillomavirus vaccination in India: a modelling study

Man, Irene ; Georges, Damien ; de Carvalho, Tiago M. ; Ray Saraswati, Lopamudra ; Bhandari, Prince ; Kataria, Ishu ; Siddiqui, Mariam ; Muwonge, Richard ; Lucas, Eric ; Berkhof, Johannes ; Sankaranarayanan, Rengaswamy ; Bogaards, Johannes A. ; Basu, Partha ; Baussano, Iacopo

Background: Despite the high burden of cervical cancer, access to preventive measures remains low in India. A single-dose immunisation schedule could facilitate the scale-up of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination, contributing to global elimination of cervical cancer. We projected the effect of single-dose quadrivalent HPV vaccination in India in comparison with no vaccination or to a two-dose schedule. Methods: In this modelling study, we adapted an HPV transmission model (EpiMetHeos) to [...]

Menée à partir des données européennes GLOBOCAN 2020 portant sur 697 000 cancers masculins et 837 000 cancers féminins, cette étude évalue la part des cancers associés à des facteurs de risque modifiables (17 localisations)

The preventability of cancer in Europe: a quantitative assessment of avoidable cancer cases across 17 cancer sites and 38 countries in 2020

Cabasag, Citadel J. ; Vignat, Jérôme ; Ferlay, Jacques ; Arndt, Volker ; Lemmens, Valery ; Praagman, Jaike ; Bray, Freddie ; Soerjomataram, Isabelle

Objective: The aim of this study is to provide an update of the estimated proportion of avoidable cases across European region for cancers associated with modifiable risk factors. Methods: Age-standardised incidence rates for 38 European countries in 2020 were derived from GLOBOCAN database. For 17 cancer sites, we estimated the number and proportion of avoidable cancer cases. The mean of the three lowest country-specific incidence (excluding rates of zero) was defined as the attainable rate [...]

Menée aux Pays-Bas sur la période 2020-2021 par enquête auprès de 1 326 fumeurs, cette étude analyse l'effet, sur les tentatives de sevrage tabagique, de l'interdiction du menthol en Union Européenne

Impact of the European Union’s menthol cigarette ban on smoking cessation outcomes: longitudinal findings from the 2020–2021 ITC Netherlands Surveys

Kyriakos, Christina N ; Driezen, Pete ; Fong, Geoffrey ; Chung-Hall, Janet ; Hyland, Andrew ; Geboers, Cloé ; Quah, Anne C K ; Willemsen, Marc C ; Filippidis, Filippos T

Introduction: To reduce the appeal of tobacco, the European Union (EU) banned menthol as a characterising flavour in cigarettes in May 2020. This pre/post-study evaluated the impact of the menthol ban on smoking cessation outcomes among a representative cohort of Dutch smokers. Methods: Adult (18+ years) smokers were recruited at wave 1 (pre-ban) of the International Tobacco Control Netherlands Surveys (February–March 2020) and followed post-ban at wave 2 (September–November 2020) and wave 3 [...]
