Nipple aspirate fluid cytology and the Gail model for breast cancer risk assessment in a screening population.
BACKGROUND Recent guidelines suggest that chemoprevention with tamoxifen may be appropriate for women who have a 5-year risk of breast cancer greater than 1.66% calculated using the Gail model. OBJECTIVES To determine whether nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) cytology combined with the Gail model provides breast cancer risk assessment that is superior to either method alone. METHODS Prospective o...
متن کاملNipple aspirate fluid collection, related factors and relationship between carcinoembryonic antigen in nipple aspirate fluid and breast diseases in women in Harbin, PRC.
This study aimed to examine the factors related to the ability to obtain nipple aspirate fluids in Chinese women and to evaluate the diagnostic value of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in nipple aspiration fluids. Cross-sectional and case-control studies were used to examine the factors associated with the ability to obtain nipple aspiration fluids. A matched case-control study was used to explo...
متن کاملProstate-specific antigen expression in nipple aspirate fluid is associated with advanced breast cancer.
We previously demonstrated that prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is present in breast nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) and its expression is inversely associated with the presence of breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to determine if PSA levels in NAF decrease with disease progression from DCIS to metastatic breast cancer. One hundred and forty-nine women underwent nipple aspiration before ...
متن کاملEthnic variation in kallikrein expression in nipple aspirate fluid.
Socioeconomic factors cannot entirely explain why black women have an earlier age of breast cancer onset and higher mortality rates, stage for stage, than whites. We and others have shown that prostate-specific antigen [PSA, also known as human kallikrein (hK) 3] is a marker of breast as well as prostate cancer, that hK2 and hK3 are highly homologous at the DNA and protein level and that the le...
متن کاملProstate-specific antigen levels in nipple aspirate fluid.
Despite the fact that breast cancer is the most common non-cutaneous cancer and a leading cause of cancer deaths in women, accepted markers of breast cancer risk miss up to 40% of these tumors. Moreover, screening methods involving the analysis of tissue or cells are limited by the need for a surgical biopsy. Nipple aspiration is a quick, efficient, noninvasive method to obtain breast epithelia...
