Individual Benefits and Risks of Intravaginal Estrogen and Systemic Testosterone in the Management of Women in the Menopause, With a Discussion of Any Associated Risks for Cancer Development
Cancer J. 2022 May-Jun 01;28(3):196-203. doi: 10.1097/PPO.0000000000000598.ABSTRACTSeveral formulations of intravaginal oestrogen are available for the treatment of genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM). These are safe and effective treatments for the symptoms of GSM. Licensed doses of intravaginal oestrogen do not elevate systemic estradiol levels above the normal postmenopausal range with long term use and there is no evidence of an increased risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, thromboembolism, colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer, breast cancer or breast cancer recurrence with their use. This should reassure bo...

Cigarette Smoking Among US Adults With Selected Chronic Diseases Associated With Smoking, 2010-2019
CONCLUSION: Overall, smoking prevalence remains high and relatively unchanged among people with chronic diseases associated with smoking, even as the overall prevalence of cigarette smoking in the US continues to decrease. The lack of progress in smoking cessation among adults with chronic diseases associated with smoking suggests that access, promotion, and integration of cessation treatment across the continuum of health care (ie, oncology, pulmonology, and cardiology settings) may be important in the success of smoking cessation in this population.PMID:36173703 | DOI:10.5888/pcd19.220086

Chronic Oxidative Stress as a Marker of Long-term Radiation-Induced Cardiovascular Outcomes in Breast Cancer
We examined associations of biomarkers of oxidative stress (myeloperoxidase, growth differentiation factor-15, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine [8-OH-dG], placental growth factor), cardiac injury (troponin I, cystatin-C), inflammation (interleukin-6, C-reactive protein), and myocardial fibrosis (transforming growth factor-ß) with long-term RICVD in breast cancer (BC) survivors. We conducted a nested case-control study within the Women's Health Initiative of postmenopausal women with incident BC stages I-III, who received radiation and had pre- and post-BC diagnosis serum samples. Cases (n = 55) were defined as developing incid...

Cost-utility analysis of a supervised exercise intervention for women with early-stage endometrial cancer
ConclusionThis is the first economic evaluation of exercise after treatment for EC. The results suggest that exercise is cost-effective for Australian EC survivors. Given the compelling evidence, efforts could now focus on the implementation of exercise as part of cancer recovery care in Australia.
