This book was released on 2019-10-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Working Group of 23 independent experts from 15 countries, convened by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in November 2017, reviewed the scientific evidence and assessed the cancer-preventive and adverse effects of various methods of screening for colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in men and the second most common in women worldwide, and represents more than 10% of the global cancer burden. This publication provides evidence-based evaluations of the effectiveness of colorectal cancer screening in reducing colorectal cancer incidence and mortality. The Working Group also reviewed the body of evidence on the comparison of endoscopic and stool-based techniques, on the determinants of participation in screening programs, and on the most mature emerging techniques that may be alternatives to current practices for colorectal cancer screening, as well as presenting the different categories of high-risk populations and the surveillance strategies for such individuals.

Book Fulfilling the Potential of Cancer Prevention and Early Detection

Download or read book Fulfilling the Potential of Cancer Prevention and Early Detection written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-05-07 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer ranks second only to heart disease as a leading cause of death in the United States, making it a tremendous burden in years of life lost, patient suffering, and economic costs. Fulfilling the Potential for Cancer Prevention and Early Detection reviews the proof that we can dramatically reduce cancer rates. The National Cancer Policy Board, part of the Institute of Medicine, outlines a national strategy to realize the promise of cancer prevention and early detection, including specific and wide-ranging recommendations. Offering a wealth of information and directly addressing major controversies, the book includes: A detailed look at how significantly cancer could be reduced through lifestyle changes, evaluating approaches used to alter eating, smoking, and exercise habits. An analysis of the intuitive notion that screening for cancer leads to improved health outcomes, including a discussion of screening methods, potential risks, and current recommendations. An examination of cancer prevention and control opportunities in primary health care delivery settings, including a review of interventions aimed at improving provider performance. Reviews of professional education and training programs, research trends and opportunities, and federal programs that support cancer prevention and early detection. This in-depth volume will be of interest to policy analysts, cancer and public health specialists, health care administrators and providers, researchers, insurers, medical journalists, and patient advocates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The quality determinants (QD) identified in this report are based on a conceptual colorectal cancer (CRC) screening pathway and are comprised of five key domains within the screening pathway : participation, screening, diagnostic follow-up, case management and program outcomes. This report also focuses on average risk, using entry-level fecal tests with colonoscopic diagnostic follow-up for those with abnormal fecal test results"--Page 5.

Book Colorectal Cancer Screening

Download or read book Colorectal Cancer Screening written by Han-Mo Chiu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-20 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a self-contained review of the theoretical and practical basis of colorectal cancer screening. Colorectal cancer is currently the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide and represents a significant burden for both public health and health care systems. However, colorectal cancer deaths can be prevented using effective screening, and many countries and regions have launched population colorectal cancer screening programs. This book covers various essential aspects of colorectal cancer screening, including the epidemiology of colorectal cancer, the various screening and diagnostic tests or exams, quality issues in colorectal cancer screening, necessary infrastructures, the evaluation of effectiveness, and economic appraisals of screening programs. Focusing on organized screening, in which various quality indicators can easily monitored and effectiveness is more likely to be evaluated, it discusses the basics of screening theory and the natural history of colorectal neoplasms, to help readers understand the rationale behind cancer screening. Lastly, it features international consensus and guidelines on colorectal cancer screening to highlight the current trends in the field. This comprehensive book on recent technological developments and conceptual advances in colorectal cancer screening is a valuable resource for public health workers and clinicians alike.

Book Colorectal Cancer Screening in Manitoba

Download or read book Colorectal Cancer Screening in Manitoba written by Lisa Findlay-Shirras and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction Fecal-based (FT) colorectal cancer (CRC) screening is designed to prevent cancer or diagnose it early when it is most amenable to treatment. This study assessed the socio-demographic and clinical factors associated with participation and outcomes of a population-based provincial CRC screening program. Methods This retrospective cohort study included individuals age 50-74 who were eligible to participate in Manitoba's CRC screening program from 2007-2014. Sociodemographic factor and clinical variable subgroup analyses were performed using multivariable logistic regression. Results 118,096 screening FTs were completed, and 3081 follow-up colonoscopies were completed. On multivariable analysis, screening participation is associated with age, sex, deprivation index, and geography. Age and sex were associated with identifying advanced neoplasia and non-advanced adenomas on colonoscopy. Conclusions Our study suggests CRC screening participation and outcomes are associated with specific sociodemographic and clinical factors. Through identification of disparities and barriers to participation, access, or timely investigations, we can inform and direct future program initiatives.
