    Dynamics of preventive vs post-diagnostic cancer control using low-impact measures

    Andrei R Akhmetzhanov, Michael E Hochberg
    A model based on empirical parameter estimates predicts that arresting cancer cell growth by less than 1% per day will produce optimal outcomes in preventing life-threatening cancers, and that such preventive measures are generally more successful than post-diagnostic interventions.

    Point of View: COVID-19 as a catalyst for reimagining cervical cancer prevention

    Rebecca Luckett, Sarah Feldman ... Suzanne Garland
    The Policy Committee of the International Papillomavirus Society describes how lessons learnt from the COVID-19 pandemic could propel a new approach to the elimination of cervical cancer that is more likely to be successful.

    An umbrella review of systematic reviews on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cancer prevention and management, and patient needs

    Taulant Muka, Joshua JX Li ... John PA Ioannidis
    A diverse and substantial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cancer care is observed, including delays in treatment, screening, and diagnosis, as well as on the psychosocial welling of patients with cancer.

    Mechanism and preclinical prevention of increased breast cancer risk caused by pregnancy

    Svasti Haricharan, Jie Dong ... Yi Li
    The transcription factor STAT5 mediates the increased breast cancer risk associated with a late age pregnancy, but intermittent anti-STAT5 treatment can lower this risk and thus prevent breast cancer.

    Design of the HPV-automated visual evaluation (PAVE) study: Validating a novel cervical screening strategy

    Silvia de Sanjosé, Rebecca B Perkins ... Mark Schiffman
    The PAVE strategy aims to provide a cost-effective, high quality ‘Screen-Triage-Treat’ approach for cervical cancer screening to save many lives.

    The impact of COVID-19 on cancer screening and treatment in older adults: The Multiethnic Cohort Study

    Victoria P Mak, Kami White ... Loic Le Marchand
    During the COVID-19 pandemic, cancer-related screening and healthcare practices varied (by age, race/ethnicity, education, and comorbidities), and considering these differences in high-risk individuals' monitoring is important as undiagnosed cases or poor prognosis may increase due to delayed screening/treatment.

    Approximating missing epidemiological data for cervical cancer through Footprinting: A case study in India

    Irene Man, Damien Georges ... Iacopo Baussano
    The proposed Footprinting framework enables approximation of missing cervical cancer epidemiological data and derivation of context-specific impact projection of cervical cancer prevention measures, assisting public health decisions on cervical cancer prevention in India and other countries.

    Identifying metabolic features of colorectal cancer liability using Mendelian randomization

    Caroline Bull, Emma Hazelwood ... Emma E Vincent
    Increased genetic liability to colorectal cancer is associated with altered levels of circulating metabolites, including fatty acids, up to 40 years before average age of diagnosis.
