This study was conducted to determine risk of developing of breast cancer among Turkish women.
Using a descriptive and cross-sectional approach, data were collected from 231 women. Breast cancer risk was calculated using the National Cancer Institute's on-line verson of called as the Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool or the Gail Risk Assesment Tool.
The average age of women was 45.0±8.06 years. It was revealed that 6.1% of participants reported having first degree relatives who had had breast cancer, with only four women having more than one first-degree relative affected (1.7%). The mean five-year breast cancer risk for all women was 0.88±0.91%, and 7.4% of women had a five-year breast cancer risk >1.66% in this study. Mean lifetime breast cancer risk up to age 90 years was 9.3±5.2%.
The breast cancer risk assessment tool can help in the clinical management of patient seeking advice concerning screening and prevention. Healthcare providers in Turkey can use this approach to estimate an individual's probability of developing breast cancer.
本研究旨在确定土耳其女性患乳腺癌的风险。
采用描述性横断面研究方法,收集了231名女性的数据。使用美国国立癌症研究所的在线版本,即乳腺癌风险评估工具(也称为盖尔风险评估工具)来计算乳腺癌风险。
女性的平均年龄为45.0±8.06岁。结果显示,6.1%的参与者报告有患乳腺癌的一级亲属,只有4名女性有不止一名受影响的一级亲属(1.7%)。本研究中所有女性的平均五年乳腺癌风险为0.88±0.91%,7.4%的女性五年乳腺癌风险>1.66%。90岁时的平均终生乳腺癌风险为9.3±5.2%。
乳腺癌风险评估工具有助于为寻求筛查和预防建议的患者提供临床管理。土耳其的医疗保健提供者可以使用这种方法来估计个体患乳腺癌的概率。
