Menée à partir de données d'enquêtes réalisées dans 7 villes européennes auprès de 11 918 adolescents, cette étude analyse l'association entre le niveau d'activité physique du cercle amical et le tabagisme

The association of adolescents' smoking with the physical activity levels of their friends in Europe

Smit, R. A. ; Kuipers, M. A. G. ; Federico, B. ; Clancy, L. ; Perelman, J. ; Rozema, A. D. ; Kunst, A. E.

Background: Smoking is inversely related to people's Physical Activity Level (PAL). As the behavior of friends may affect the choices and behavior of adolescents, having friends with a high PAL may potentially protect against adolescent smoking. This study aims to assess whether adolescents' smoking is associated with the PAL of their friends. Methods: SILNE-R survey data of 11.918 adolescents from 55 different schools in 7 European cities was used to determine weekly smoking, individual PAL, [...]

Menée au Canada à partir de données portant sur 131 516 femmes (âge moyen : 42,2 ans ; durée moyenne de suivi : environ 7,5 ans), cette étude évalue l'association entre une salpingectomie et le risque de cancer épithélial invasif de l'ovaire, de cancer des trompes de Fallope ou de cancer péritonéal

Salpingectomy and the Risk of Ovarian Cancer in Ontario

Giannakeas, Vasily ; Murji, Ally ; Lipscombe, Lorraine L. ; Narod, Steven A. ; Kotsopoulos, Joanne

Importance : A body of pathological and clinical evidence supports the position that the fallopian tube is the site of origin for a large proportion of high-grade serous ovarian cancers. Consequently, salpingectomy is now considered for permanent contraception (in lieu of tubal ligation) or ovarian cancer prevention (performed opportunistically at the time of surgical procedures for benign gynecologic conditions). Objective : To evaluate the association between salpingectomy and the risk of [...]

Menée aux Etats-Unis sur la période 1997-2018 auprès de 34 397 femmes d'origine afro-américaine participant à l'étude "Black Women's Health Study", cette étude analyse l'association entre une utilisation d'aspirine et le risque d'adénome colorectal (1 913 cas)

Aspirin and nonaspirin nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug use and occurrence of colorectal adenoma in Black American women

Barber, Lauren E. ; Bertrand, Kimberly A. ; Sheehy, Shanshan ; White, Laura F. ; Roy, Hemant K. ; Rosenberg, Lynn ; Palmer, Julie R. ; Petrick, Jessica L.

Evidence suggests that aspirin use reduces the occurrence of colorectal neoplasia. Few studies have investigated the association among Black Americans, who are disproportionately burdened by the disease. We assessed aspirin use in relation to colorectal adenoma among Black women. The Black Women's Health Study is a prospective cohort of self-identified Black American women established in 1995. Participants reported regular aspirin use on baseline and follow-up questionnaires. Beginning in 1999, [...]

Menée auprès de 1 700 patientes présentant des lésions cervicales intraépithéliales diagnostiquées sur la période 2011-2017 (âge : 20-25 ans), cette étude analyse, en fonction du statut vaccinal contre le papillomavirus humain, les génotypes du HPV pour chaque grade de lésion cervicale (CIN2, CIN2+, CIN3)

The changing nature of HPV associated with high grade cervical lesions in vaccinated populations, a retrospective study of over 1700 cases in Scotland

Cuschieri, Kate ; Palmer, Tim ; Graham, Catriona ; Cameron, Ross ; Roy, Kirsty

Background: Understanding the pattern and dominance of HPV types in high grade cervical disease within increasingly vaccinated populations will help inform the development of appropriate screening and management protocols. Methods: Over 1700 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) diagnosed between 2011 and 2017 in women younger than 25 were genotyped for HPV. Logistic regression was used to assess the association between HPV 16/18 positivity with biopsy-collection year, birth year, [...]

Menée aux Etats-Unis à partir de données d'enquêtes réalisées sur la période 2021-2022 auprès de 18 377 jeunes âgés de 15 à 24 ans, cette étude analyse l'effet d'une sensibilisation à la campagne anti-tabac "Truth" sur les comportements à l'égard de la cigarette électronique

Reducing e-cigarette use among youth and young adults: evidence of the truth campaign’s impact

Background: Mass media campaigns have been shown to be effective in reducing cigarette use. However, evidence is limited for whether campaigns can shift e-cigarette use among youth and young adults (YYA). To assess the impact of the truth anti-e-cigarette campaign, which focused on the effects of vaping on mental health, this study examines the relationship between campaign awareness and e-cigarette behaviour among YYA. Methods: Data from weekly cross-sectional surveys of YYA aged 15–24 years [...]

Mené aux Etats-Unis entre 2015 et 2020 sur 198 dyades mère-enfant, cet essai randomisé évalue l'effet d'incitations financières sur le sevrage tabagique et sur l'exposition des enfants au tabagisme passif

Randomized clinical trial examining financial incentives for smoking cessation among mothers of young children and possible impacts on child secondhand smoke exposure

Higgins, Stephen T. ; Plucinski, Shirley ; Orr, Eva ; Nighbor, Tyler D. ; Coleman, Sulamunn R. M. ; Skelly, Joan ; DeSarno, Michael ; Bunn, Janice

This randomized clinical trial examined whether financial-incentives increase smoking cessation among mothers of young children and potential impacts on child secondhand-smoke exposure (SHSe). 198 women-child dyads were enrolled and assigned to one of three treatment conditions: best practices (BP, N = 68), best practices plus financial incentives (BP + FI, N = 63), or best practices, financial incentives, and nicotine replacement therapy (BP + FI + NRT, N = 67). The trial was completed in [...]

A partir d'une revue systématique de la littérature publiée entre 2004 et 2022 (30 articles), cette étude analyse l'efficacité de différentes stratégies réglementaires pour prévenir et réduire le vapotage de nicotine chez les jeunes

Regulatory Strategies for Preventing and Reducing Nicotine Vaping among Youth: A Systematic Review

Reiter, Anna ; Hébert-Losier, Andréa ; Mylocopos, Genevieve ; Filion, Kristian B. ; Windle, Sarah B. ; O'Loughlin, Jennifer L. ; Grad, Roland ; Eisenberg, Mark J.

Introduction: Many jurisdictions have implemented different regulatory strategies to reduce vaping among youth. The objective of this systematic review is to synthesize the evidence on the effectiveness of different regulatory strategies for preventing and reducing nicotine vaping among youth. Methods: Five electronic databases were searched from January 1st 2004 until July 17th 2022 for primary studies examining state/provincial or national regulations targeting vaping among youth (12-21 [...]

Hallgren, Emily ; Yeary, Karen H. K. ; DelNero, Peter ; Johnson-Wells, Beverly ; Purvis, Rachel S. ; Moore, Ramey ; Loveless, Stephanie ; Shealy, Kristen ; McElfish, Pearl A.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the barriers, facilitators, and priority needs related to cancer prevention, control, and research in persistent poverty areas. Methods: We conducted three focus groups with 17 providers and staff of primary care clinics serving persistent poverty areas throughout the state of Arkansas. Results: We identified multiple barriers, facilitators, and priority needs related to cancer prevention and control at primary care clinics serving persistent [...]
