Breast cancer is a global issue. The World Health Organization estimates that approximately 1.2 million people will receive a diagnosis of breast cancer each year. Breast cancer continues to be the most diagnosed cancer for all women, after skin cancer, both within the United States and worldwide.
This study reviews the current understanding of the pattern of breast cancer among whites, African Americans, and West Africans who have never immigrated to the US to find better ways of improving the prevention, early detection, and care of breast cancer world-wide. In the United States, the
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is more common among African American (AA) and western sub-Saharan African breast cancer (BC) patients compared with White/Caucasian Americans (WA) and Europeans. Little is known about TNBC in east Africa.
Invasive BC diagnosed 1998-2014 were evaluated: WA and AA
BACKGROUND
An overview of the state of genetic testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes was presented at the Summit Meeting on Breast Cancer Among African American women.
METHODS
An exhaustive literature search was performed using PubMed and abstracts published from meetings of the American Association for
African-American women face a lower risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer as compared to Caucasian-American women, yet they paradoxically face an increased breast cancer mortality hazard. An increased incidence rate for early-onset disease has also been documented. This manuscript review
In an effort to determine numerical thresholds for histological breast cancer grading, we evaluated the fraction of fields with tubular differentiation (FTD) in Nigerian breast cancers (n=300). Analyses were based on Kaplan-Meier survival curves, and univariate and multivariate analyses by Cox's
The purpose of this narrative inquiry was to report an interwoven narrative of African-American women who are thriving after cancer. The sample included 12 African-American women (N = 12) who have been disease-free survivors of breast cancer for 10 or more years after initial diagnosis and who
Several studies have indicated the existence of thrombo-embolic complications in cancer patients and that this could be associated with changes in heamorheological parameters. Packed cell volume (PCV), heamoglobin (Hb), relative plasma viscosity (RPV) and plasma Fibrinogen concentration (PFC) were
A greater understanding of the nature and drivers of poor breast cancer (BC) awareness in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) will inform much needed awareness programmes. We aimed to assess the level and nature of BC awareness in the multi-country African Breast Cancer-Disparities in Outcome (ABC-DO) cohort
The literature on breast cancer in sub-Saharan women is reviewed. In general, breast cancer is the second most common malignancy of women in the region, after cancer of the uterine cervix. Available reports indicate that data on the disease are incomplete and mostly, of epidemiological or clinical
