Breast cancer affects one in eight women during their lives. Breast cancer kills more women in the United States than any cancer except lung cancer. No one knows why some women get breast cancer, but there are a number of risk factors. Risks that you cannot change include:
Age - the chance of getting breast cancer rises, as a woman gets older
Genes - there are two genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, which greatly increase the risk. Women who have family members with breast or ovarian cancer may wish to be tested.
Personal factors - beginning periods before age 12 or going through menopause after age 55
Other risks include being overweight, using hormone replacement therapy (also called menopausal hormone therapy), taking birth control pills, drinking alcohol, not having children or having your first child after age 35 or having dense breasts.
Symptoms of breast cancer may include a lump in the breast, a change in size or shape of the breast or discharge from a nipple. Breast self-exam and mammography can help find breast cancer early when it is most treatable. Treatment may consist of radiation, lumpectomy, mastectomy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy.
Men can have breast cancer, too, but the number of cases is small.

Breast cancer is a major public health issue in India, with an increasing incidence and late stage presentation being common. Screening programs aim to detect breast cancer early through methods like clinical breast examination and mammography. While mammography screening is recommended for women aged 40-70, clinical breast examination alone can also reduce mortality. Teaching breast self-examination increases health awareness but does not directly reduce mortality. Early detection through any screening modality can help detect breast cancer at an earlier treatable stage.

Cervical Cancer Presentation from Research india...sudhpriya
Cervical cancer is caused by persistent infection with high-risk strains of human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is transmitted sexually and infects the cells of the cervix, which can lead to cervical cancer over many years if the infection is not cleared by the immune system. Screening for cervical cancer using the Pap test aims to detect cellular changes in the cervix before cancer develops. Diagnosis involves tests to detect HPV infection and examine cervical tissue for cancerous or precancerous cells. Prevention strategies include the HPV vaccine to protect against infection from high-risk HPV strains and regular Pap screening to detect cellular changes early.
This document discusses breast cancer epidemiology and risk factors. It begins by describing the normal structure of the breast and types of breast cancer. The most common type is invasive ductal carcinoma. Risk factors include being a woman and aging, as well as factors like family history, early menstruation, late pregnancy/childbirth, and not breastfeeding. Environmental factors like chemicals that mimic estrogen may also increase risk. While some risk factors cannot be changed, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and limiting chemical exposure may help lower breast cancer risk.

The document summarizes key aspects of the female menstrual cycle. It begins with menarche typically occurring between ages 10-12 and menopause between 45-55. The menstrual cycle affects the ovaries and endometrium, consisting of follicular and luteal phases in the ovaries and proliferative and secretory phases in the endometrium. The hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis regulates the cycle through hormones like FSH and LH. Ovulation typically occurs around day 14 when the dominant follicle ruptures to release the ovum. If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum regresses and menstruation begins, marking the start of a new cycle.

Amenorrhea is the absence of menstruation and can be primary or secondary. Primary amenorrhea refers to the absence of menstruation by age 15 in the presence of secondary sexual characteristics or by age 13 without characteristics. Secondary amenorrhea is the absence of menses for longer than 6 months in a previously menstruating woman. Common causes include pregnancy, polycystic ovarian syndrome, thyroid issues, and prolactinomas. An evaluation involves assessing sexual development, examining the reproductive tract, and obtaining levels of FSH, TSH, and prolactin to help determine the cause. Further tests like an MRI or karyotype may then be needed.
The document discusses evaluation and management of various breast conditions including nipple discharge, breast masses, fibrocystic changes, and breast cancer. Key points include:
- Bilateral nipple discharge may indicate prolactinoma and workup should include prolactin and TSH levels.
- Unilateral nonbloody nipple discharge is often due to intraductal papilloma while bloody discharge raises concern for malignancy.
- Fibroadenomas typically present as mobile breast nodules.
- Fibrocystic changes usually cause cyclical breast pain and lumps in young women.
- Mammogram is the next step to evaluate microcalcifications, and core biopsy is used to sample suspicious lesions

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in India. It occurs when breast cells grow abnormally and divide rapidly, forming a lump or mass that can spread to other parts of the body. Risk factors include hormonal, lifestyle, genetic and environmental factors. Early detection through screening such as breast self-exams, clinical exams and mammograms is important for effective treatment when cancer is small and has not spread.
This document provides information on endometrial cancer including its definition, incidence, epidemiology, risk factors, clinical presentation, investigation, pathology, classification, staging, and treatment. It notes that endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic cancer, occurring most often in post-menopausal women. Common risk factors include obesity, diabetes, infertility, and family history. The main symptom is abnormal vaginal bleeding, especially after menopause. Treatment depends on staging and may involve surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or hormonal therapy.
This document discusses key aspects of breast cancer including:
- Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and has a high incidence rate in the United States.
- Risk factors include age, family history, genetic mutations.
- Common types are ductal carcinoma in situ, invasive ductal carcinoma, and inflammatory breast cancer.
- Signs and symptoms include lumps, nipple discharge or inversion, and swollen lymph nodes.
- Screening and early detection have helped reduce mortality while hereditary factors account for some increased risk cases.
After a biopsy, the patient was diagnosed with a benign phyllodes tumor, a rare non-cancerous breast growth. Benign phyllodes tumors make up connective and glandular breast tissue and present as firm lumps. They are generally non-painful and large. Around 90% are benign while less than 10% are malignant. The usual treatment is surgery to remove the tumor and surrounding tissue to prevent recurrence, as benign phyllodes tumors often return after surgery. The patient will need close follow-up after surgery.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
