BACKGROUND Internet-based cancer risk assessment tools have the potential to inform the public about cancer risk and promote risk-reducing behaviors. However, poorly communicated information on these websites may result in unintended adverse health outcomes. OBJECTIVE This study examined whether: (1) Internet-based cancer risk assessment tools use risk communication formats that facilitate co...

AbstractBreast cancer is a multifactorial disease. Benign breast disease (BBD) is one of the most important risk factors for breast cancer. The etiology of BBD is unknown. It is divided into nonproliferative and proliferative diseases. The selection of studies will be based on titles, abstract screening, inclusion and exclusion criteria, and quality assessment. Previous studies have shown that ...

introduction: gail model is one of the most important models for the evaluation of breast cancer risk between us white females. according to genetic diversity, there is a possibility of affecting the efficiency of the gail model in risk assessment of breast cancer among iranian populations. in this study, the gail model efficiency in specifying the risk of breast cancer in iranian population wa...

background: th e second leading cause of cancer deaths in women is breast cancer. germline mutations in susceptibility breast cancer gene brca1 increase the lifetime risk of breast cancer. eighty-one large genomic rearrangements (lgrs) have been reported up to date in brca1 gene, and evaluation of these rearrangements helps with precise risk assessment in high-risk individuals. in this study, w...

background: the use of chemicals is essential in education resulting in exposure to these pollutant in a variety of chemical and research laboratories. chemical contaminants in chemical laboratories are in different forms and chemical exposure risk assessment is important for choosing appropriate controls in protecting the health of operators, experts and students. for risk assessment in chemic...
