Survival Analysis of Determinants of Breast Cancer Patients at Hossana Queen ...Premier Publishers
Breast cancer is one of the most severe diseases in the world and become the public’s ever day’s agenda in both developed and developing countries. The primary goal of this study was to identify the determinants of survival time of breast cancer patients at Hossana hospital, south Ethiopia. Kaplan-Meier estimation method and a new two-parameter probability distribution called hypertabastic are introduced to model the survival time of the data. A simulation study was carried out to evaluate the performance of the hypertabastic distribution in comparison with popular distribution with the help of R and SAS statistical software Packages. One-fourth (25%) of the total patients survived for only 2 days. 31(35.2%) were censored, and 55(62.5%) were died. Hypertabastic survival model was found to be best fitting to the breast cancer data and age, level of education, family history, breast problem before, High fat diet, child late age, early menarche, late menopause were significant risk factors for the death of breast cancer patients. Awareness has to be given for the society on causes of breast cancer and screening test and early detection policies for most risky groups has to be established.
Knowledge Discovery from Breast Cancer Databaseiosrjce
In this paper, we study various factors leading to breast cancer and also a few symptoms that act as
biomarkers for the occurrence of breast cancer in women. Totally 18 factors are taken for study. Statistical
techniques are used to analyze the influence of various factors towards the disease and test for significance of
factors is also done. Besides association rule mining is attempted to generate possible factors that may lead to
breast cancer. An attempt to classify the given dataset using information gain techniques and CHAID
techniques was done. Clustering was also done to predict the occurrence of breast cancer. The results show
that there is more possibility of developing breast cancer among married working women who have breast fed less than 2.5 years in total.

Myths And Facts About Breast Cancer.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the world, with around 2.26 million new cases diagnosed each year. With around 0.7 million fatalities per year worldwide, it is one of the major causes of death among female cancer patients. It is quite common in those aged 25 to 70, with peak prevalence in women aged 50 to 69.
Breast cancer occurs when a pre-cancerous tumour progresses to a malignant tumour in a multi-stage process that is triggered by abnormal and uncontrolled growth of normal cells. These abnormalities are brought on by physical carcinogens (ultraviolet and ionising radiation), chemical carcinogens (alcohol, aflatoxin, tobacco smoke), and biological carcinogens (viral infections, bacteria, or parasites). Breast cancer risk is also increased by genetic factors. 5 to 10% of breast cancer instances are caused by genetic abnormalities passed down through a family’s generations.

De las percepciones comunes a ambas experiencias, destacamos la construcción de nuevos lugares dentro de la
relación médico-paciente que tiene a la calidez humana como cualidad que se manifiesta de manera natural.
El rol del médico de familia y comunidad se vuelve fundamental en contextos donde el primer nivel de atención
(PNA) constituye la primer y única línea de acceso a la atención sanitaria. Por lo que, la buena gestión de los
recursos, la importancia de la valoración clínica-semiológica, así como la capacidad de resolución de los principales
problemas de salud propios de cada población, se vuelve necesaria e imprescindible.

https://cajanegraeditora.com.ar/blog/jardin-hipersticion-una-ficcion-de-futuro/
“Hiperstición” es un concepto desarrollado por Nick Land y la Cybernetic Culture Research Unit (CCRU) que refiere a una idea performativa que provoca su propia realidad, una ficción que crea el futuro que predice. En palabras de Land, “Hiperstición es un circuito de retroalimentación positiva que incluye a la cultura como componente. Puede ser definido como la (tecno-) ciencia experimental de las profecías autocumplidas”.Pero la idea que me propongo articular en este ensayo es que estas dos corrientes, el colapso del neoliberalismo y la ausencia de alternativas, pueden encontrar su solución en una tercera tendencia, encarnada en una perspectiva estética incipiente y particular. Lo que necesitamos hoy es una reconfiguración de los fundamentos de la estética política en los que abreva la izquierda. O para decirlo más claramente, lo que necesitamos es ampliar nuestras capacidades de imaginación sensible a través de la mediación de aumentos tecnológicos. Para poder desarrollar una alternativa adecuada a las complejas sociedades del presente, la izquierda debe invocar las capacidades latentes de la tecnología y la ciencia, de forma de poder imaginar un futuro mejor.

1. THE ART OF RISK COMMUNICATION
Breast cancer screening pamphlets mislead women
All women and women’s organisations should tear up the pink ribbons and campaign for honest
information
Gerd Gigerenzer director
Harding Center for Risk Literacy and Centre for Adaptive Behaviour and Cognition, Max Planck Institute for Human Development, Berlin, Germany
Why should I have mammography? That question is regularly
asked in pamphlets for screening. The answer is also regularly
misleading. Women are told what they should do, but without
being given the facts necessary to make informed decisions.
This form of paternalism has a long tradition. In a campaign
poster in the 1980s, the American Cancer Society declared: “If
you haven’t had a mammogram, you need more than your
breasts examined.”
As a result of paternalism and pink ribbon culture, almost all
women have a false impression of the benefit of mammography
screening. For instance, 98% of women in France, Germany,
and the Netherlands overestimated its benefit by a factor of 10,
100, or more, or did not know.1
Most surprisingly, those who
frequently consulted their physicians and health pamphlets were
slightly worse informed. Russian women gave the most realistic
estimates among those in nine European countries studied—not
because they have more information at their disposal but because
there are fewer misleading pink ribbon pamphlets in Russia.
Misinformation needs to stop. All pamphlets should show a
“fact box” that explains benefits and harms in a transparent
way.2
The figure shows one based on the most recent Cochrane
review for women age 50 to 69.3
In sum, the absolute reduction in mortality from breast cancer
is about 1 in 1000 women, but the reduction in total cancer
mortality (including breast cancer) is 0. The difference between
breast cancer and total cancer deaths is important because it is
not always easy to determine the type of cancer from which a
person died, and total cancer mortality is thus a more reliable
measure.
A look at a sample of pamphlets reveals patterns in how the
benefits of screening are actually communicated (for the sake
of brevity, I do not deal with the harms). Four strategies are
frequently used:
1. Zero number policy: tell women what
to do without stating benefits
Even today, woman are simply told to go for mammographic
screening and are given no detailed estimates of the benefit. In
the US the Food and Drug Administration’s Office of Women’s
Health leaflet (in pink) says on its first page that “Mammograms
can help save lives.” Similarly, the American Cancer Society’s
2014 pamphlet Breast Cancer: Early Detection tells women,
“Most doctors feel that early detection tests for breast cancer
save thousands of lives each year, and that many more lives
could be saved if even more women and their health care
providers took advantage of these tests,” and the National Cancer
Institute’s fact sheet says, “Screening mammography can help
reduce the number of deaths from breast cancer among women
ages 40 to 70, especially for those over age 50.”
In each case, no information is given about how large the benefit
is. In the first two cases, the reduction in breast cancer mortality
is misleadingly presented as “saving lives,” even though there
is no reduction in total cancer mortality (including breast
cancer): no life is actually saved. Note the American Cancer
Society’s formulation that most US doctors “feel” that lives are
saved, which may be technically true. This zero number policy
seems to be widespread in the US, unlike in Canada and the rest
of the Western world.
