There are no consensus guidelines for supplemental breast cancer screening with whole-breast ultrasound . 95.3% of 38,166 screening ultrasounds were among women with heterogeneously or extremely dense breasts . A clinically significant proportion of women undergoing mammography screening alone were at high screening failure risk .

Oncofertility‐related psycho‐educational therapy for young adult patients with breast cancer and their partners: Randomized controlled trial
A couples’ psycho-educational program called Oncofertility! Psycho-Education and Couple Enrichment (O!PEACE) therapy was created and its effect when provided before cancer treatment was examined . Primary end points were cancer-related posttraumatic stress symptoms, symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress-coping strategies, resilience, and marital relationship . A >5-point reduction was present in 59.3% and 30% of women… Continue reading Oncofertility‐related psycho‐educational therapy for young adult patients with breast cancer and their partners: Randomized controlled trial
A review of treatment options in HER2‐low breast cancer and proposed treatment sequencing algorithm
Anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugate trastuzumab deruxtecan has shown significant survival benefit in pretreated metastatic HER2-low breast cancer . The treatment algorithm for hormone receptor–positive and triple-negative BC needs to be reconsidered .

Differential treatment effect between younger and older adults for new cancer therapies in solid tumors supporting US Food and Drug Administration approval between 2010 and 2021
The authors quantified how treatment effects differ between older and younger patients in oncology registration trials . The primary outcome was differential treatment effect by age for progression-free survival and overall survival . Only 7% of end points showed a statistically significant interaction between outcome and age group . There were no changes in the… Continue reading Differential treatment effect between younger and older adults for new cancer therapies in solid tumors supporting US Food and Drug Administration approval between 2010 and 2021
Differential treatment effect between younger and older adults for new cancer therapies in solid tumors supporting US Food and Drug Administration approval between 2010 and 2021
Abstract Background Over one half of cancer diagnoses occur in patients aged 65 and older. The authors quantified how treatment effects differ between older and younger patients in oncology registration trials. Methods The authors performed a retrospective cohort study of registration trials supporting US Food and Drug Administration approval of cancer drugs (from January 2010… Continue reading Differential treatment effect between younger and older adults for new cancer therapies in solid tumors supporting US Food and Drug Administration approval between 2010 and 2021
Adherence to the 2018 World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF)/American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) Cancer Prevention Recommendations and cancer risk: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
A systematic review and meta-analysis of studies investigating associations between a score for adherence to the 2018 Cancer Prevention Recommendations and cancer risk was conducted . The summary risk ratio per 1-point increment in adherence score was 0.89 (95% CI) for breast cancer . There were no significant associations with prostate or other cancers .

Associations of low‐carbohydrate diets with breast cancer survival
Study looked at the role of low-carbohydrate diets in relation to breast cancer–specific and all-cause mortality . It found that greater adherence to overall, animal-rich, or plant-poor, diets was not significantly associated with a lower risk of cancer-specific mortality among women with stage I–III cancer . The study was conducted for 9621 women who were… Continue reading Associations of low‐carbohydrate diets with breast cancer survival
