A partir d'une revue systématique de la littérature publiée entre 2007 et 2021 (26 articles), cette étude analyse l'efficacité d'interventions pour le sevrage tabagique associant thérapie comportementale et traitement pharmacologique chez les Afro-Américains

The efficacy of tobacco cessation treatment for African American adults: a systematic review

Dawson, Darius B ; Budhwani, Shahereez ; Breland, Jessica Y ; Kunik, Mark E ; Fletcher, Terri L

Despite proliferation of evidence-based tobacco cessation treatments, African American adults still suffer higher rates of tobacco-related diseases than White adults. Although tobacco cessation treatment is efficacious, there is a need to reassess the efficacy of tobacco cessation treatment for African American adults. Previous reviews of tobacco cessation treatment studies conducted through 2007 among African American adults highlight the limited research in this area and inconsistent findings [...]

A partir d'une revue systématique de la littérature publiée entre 2010 et 2023 (32 études de modélisation), cette étude analyse les effets, sur la prévalence du tabagisme et la morbidité à long terme, de l'utilisation de la cigarette électronique

Objective: To systematically review and synthesise the findings of modelling studies on the population impacts of e-cigarette use and to identify potential gaps requiring future investigation. Data source and study selection: Four databases were searched for modelling studies of e-cigarette use on population health published between 2010 and 2023. A total of 32 studies were included. Data extraction: Data on study characteristics, model attributes and estimates of population impacts including [...]

Menée aux Etats-Unis auprès de 81 884 personnes, cette étude analyse l'association entre une consommation régulière de compléments alimentaires et le risque de cancer, en fonction de l'origine ethnique

Supplement use and gastric cancer risk in the Southern Community Cohort Study

Goodwin, Jessica C. ; Wang, Qichen ; Lin, Pao-Hwa ; Shrubsole, Martha J. ; Epplein, Meira

Purpose: Gastric cancer remains a racial health disparity in the US, but few studies have examined supplements as a potential protective factor. We examined associations between regular supplement use and gastric cancer risk among the predominantly Black participants in the Southern Community Cohort Study (SCCS). Methods: Of the 84,508 individuals recruited in the SCCS from 2002 to 2009, 81,884 responded to the baseline question: any vitamin or supplement taken at least once per month in the [...]

Menée à partir de données portant sur 118 548 personnes âgées d'au moins 50 ans, cette étude analyse l'association entre une utilisation d'aspirine, la présence de facteurs de risque (surpoids, tabagisme, consommation d'alcool, diabète) et le risque de cancer (4 003 cas)

Low-dose acetylsalicylic acid for cancer prevention considering risk factors: A retrospective cohort study

Florensa, Dídac ; Mateo, Jordi ; Solsona, Francesc ; Galván, Leonardo ; Mesas, Miquel ; Piñol, Ramon ; Espinosa-Leal, Leonardo ; Godoy, Pere

Background: Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) has been reported to protect against certain cancers. However, patient-related risk factors may moderate protective effects, including excess weight, smoking, risky alcohol use, and diabetes. We explore the cancer-risk relationship between aspirin intake and those four factors. Methods: Retrospective cohort study of cancers, aspirin intake, and four risk factors in persons aged ≥50 years. Participants received medication 2007-2016, and cancers were [...]

A partir d'une revue systématique de la littérature publiée depuis les 20 dernières années (28 études), cette méta-analyse évalue l'association entre la dose ou la fréquence d'aspirine utilisée et le risque de cancer du sein

Prophylactic aspirin intake and breast cancer risk; A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational cohort studies

Bakierzynska, Martyna ; Cullinane, Ms Carolyn ; Redmond, Henry Paul ; Corrigan, Mark

Breast Cancer (BC) is the most common cancer amongst women. The chemo-preventative effects of aspirin on breast cancer have been demonstrated in several longitudinal studies however previous meta-analysis have shown inconsistent results. This study aimed to assess the relationship between aspirin use and BC risk, and to determine if there is a dose-response relationship between aspirin and BC risk. Studies incorporating BC risk with aspirin use published within the last twenty years were [...]

Cette étude passe en revue les connaissances actuelles sur la part des cancers du poumon attribuable à la pollution atmosphérique puis analyse les possibilités de développer des actions de prévention

Air pollution and lung cancer : A Review by International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Early Detection and Screening Committee

Berg, Christine D. ; Schiller, Joan H. ; Boffetta, Paolo ; Cai, Jing ; Connolly, Casey ; Kerpel-Fronius, Anna ; Kitts, Andrea Borondy ; Lam, David C. L. ; Mohan, Anant ; Myers, Renelle ; Suri, Tejas ; Tammemägi, Martin C. ; Yang, Dawei ; Lam, Stephen

INTRODUCTION: The second leading cause of lung cancer is air pollution. Air pollution and smoking are synergistic. Air pollution can worsen lung cancer survival. METHODS: The Early Detection and Screening Committee of IASLC formed a working group (WG) to better understand issues in air pollution and lung cancer. These included identification of air pollutants, their measurement, and proposed mechanisms of carcinogenesis. The burden of disease and the underlying epidemiologic evidence linking [...]
