Background
The benefit of regular exercise in improving cancer outcomes is well established. The American Cancer Society (ACS) released a recommendation that cancer survivors should engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity (PA) per week; however, few report meeting this recommendation. This study examined the patterns and correlates of meeting ACS PA recommendations...
Background
Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and disabling consequence of neurotoxic therapies, yet factors that modulate the development and clinical impact of CIPN are poorly understood. This epidemiological analysis identifies risk factors for the incidence of CIPN.
Methods
This retrospective analysis of Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results–Medicare data examined...
BACKGROUND
Few studies have examined the relationship between cardiometabolic risk factors linked to metabolic syndrome and mortality among women with breast cancer.
METHODS
We used the Women's Health Initiative to evaluate the relationship between cardiometabolic risk factors, including waist circumference (WC), blood pressure, cholesterol level, and presence of type 2 diabetes, and their relation...
Purpose Statins have been postulated to have chemopreventive activity against breast cancer. We evaluated whether germline genetic polymorphisms modified the relationship between statins and breast cancer risk using data from the Women’s Health Initiative. We evaluated these interactions using both candidate gene and agnostic genome-wide approaches. Methods To identify candidate gene–statin interactions,...
