Screening, especially screening mammography, is vital for decreasing breast cancer incidence and mortality. Screening rates in American Indian women are low compared to other racial/ethnic groups. In addition, American Indian women are diagnosed at more advanced stages and have lower 5-year survival

Breast cancer is the second most common cancer among women in India, after cancer of the cervix uteri. Presently, 75,000 new cases occur in Indian women every year. This figure must be viewed against the backdrop that the national cancer registry and the hospital-based tumor registries hardly sample

Breast cancer has ranked number one cancer among Indian females with age adjusted rate as high as 25.8 per 100,000 women and mortality 12.7 per 100,000 women. Data reports from various latest national cancer registries were compared for incidence, mortality rates. The age adjusted incidence rate of

BACKGROUND Breast cancer is the most common female cancer in the world. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a recently identified biological variant with aggressive tumor behavior and poor prognosis. Data of hormonal status from the Indian population is scarce due to financial constraints in

Incidence of breast cancer in Indian women is not as high as in Western countries, nonetheless age-adjusted incidence rates (AAR) have risen from 17.9 to 24.9 per 100,000 from 1965 to 1985. Although these rates are still approximately one quarter to one third of incidence rates in North America and

The distribution of receptors for estradiol (ER), progesterone (PgR) and androgens (DHTR) in 104 primary and 49 metastatic breast tumours from Indian women is herein being reported for the first time. When compared to reports in the literature, a lower percentage (47%) of ER (+) tumours and a higher

A retrospective review of breast cancer in West Indian women in Trinidad is presented. Breast cancer constituted 17% of all cancers diagnosed and represented 26% of all cancers in females. The usual presenting symptom was a painless lump. The right breast and the upper outer quadrant were the common

The Incidence of breast cancer has been steadily increasing in the last two decades, more so in urban areas of the sub-continent. Cancer ceters across the country have large numbers of patients being treated with multiple publications in this field. Inspite of paucity of prospective data and

Germline mutation analysis of BRCA1 gene has demonstrated significant allelic heterogeneity. These differences represent historical influences of migration, population structure and geographic or cultural isolation. To date, there have been no reports of Indian families with mutations in BRCA1. We

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential association of five (p.P47S, p.R72P, PIN3 Ins16bp, p.R213R and r.13494g>a) polymorphisms of TP53 with the risk of developing breast cancer in North Indian Punjabi population. METHODS We screened DNA samples of 200 sporadic breast

Somatic mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been demonstrated in various tumors. Mitochondrial D-loop is a non-coding region in the mitochondrial genome, which has essential transcription and replication elements, and alterations in this region may affect both these processes. The D-loop has

BACKGROUND Biological markers that reliably predict clinical or pathological response to primary systemic therapy early during a course of chemotherapy may have considerable clinical potential. OBJECTIVE Aims of study to evaluated changes in Ki-67 (MIB-1) labeling index and apoptotic index (AI)
