What does a Stage 0 breast cancer diagnosis mean? Bram Goldstein, Ph.D., provides clinical context on DCIS, early detection, treatment, and the research supporting more individualized care.

Awareness can start important conversations, but research is what moves those conversations forward. Learn how women’s cancer research supports progress in prevention, detection, treatment, survivorship, and quality of life.

Where people turn for cancer information, and how much they trust those sources, can shape what they understand about HPV and cervical cancer. This research examines the connection between trust in physicians and public health agencies and awareness that HPV is a leading cause of cervical cancer.

Cervical cancer is the fourth most frequent cancer and fourth leading cause of death in women. In 2020, 604,000 new cases and 342,000 deaths worldwide were estimated. A recent study endeavored to identify the association between BMI and cervical cancer and precancerous cervical lesions (PCL) in screened women.

Obesity is well established as a risk factor for endometrial cancer, also driving higher mortality rates among these patients. Previous research conducted at the University of Bergen had shown that relying solely on body mass index (BMI) to estimate obesity-related risk factors is insufficient. Instead, they found that a higher percentage of visceral fat is associated with poorer outcomes in endometrial cancer patients.

Rising rates of early-onset cancer have generated substantial and hence, clinical guidelines have shifted to recommend earlier screening for some cancers.
