Food, Nutrition, Physical Activity, and the Prevention of Cancer : a Global Perspective : 食物、栄養、身体活動とがんの予防 : 世界的展望(後篇)

Objectives To systematically examine the evidence of harms and benefits relating to time spent on screens for children and young people’s (CYP) health and well-being, to inform policy. Methods Systematic review of reviews undertaken to answer the question ‘What is the evidence for health and well-being effects of screentime in children and adolescents (CYP)?’ Electronic databases were searched for systematic reviews in February 2018. Eligible reviews reported associations between time on screens (screentime; any type) and any health/well-being outcome in CYP. Quality of reviews was assessed and strength of evidence across reviews evaluated. Results 13 reviews were identified (1 high quality, 9 medium and 3 low quality). 6 addressed body composition; 3 diet/energy intake; 7 mental health; 4 cardiovascular risk; 4 for fitness; 3 for sleep; 1 pain; 1 asthma. We found moderately strong evidence for associations between screentime and greater obesity/adiposity and higher depressive symptoms; moderate evidence for an association between screentime and higher energy intake, less healthy diet quality and poorer quality of life. There was weak evidence for associations of screentime with behaviour problems, anxiety, hyperactivity and inattention, poorer self-esteem, poorer well-being and poorer psychosocial health, metabolic syndrome, poorer cardiorespiratory fitness, poorer cognitive development and lower educational attainments and poor sleep outcomes. There was no or insufficient evidence for an association of screentime with eating disorders or suicidal ideation, individual cardiovascular risk factors, asthma prevalence or pain. Evidence for threshold effects was weak. We found weak evidence that small amounts of daily screen use is not harmful and may have some benefits. Conclusions There is evidence that higher levels of screentime is associated with a variety of health harms for CYP, with evidence strongest for adiposity, unhealthy diet, depressive symptoms and quality of life. Evidence to guide policy on safe CYP screentime exposure is limited. PROSPERO registration number CRD42018089483.

Effects of screentime on the health and well-being of children and adolescents: a systematic review of reviews

Pancreatic cancer, although infrequent, has a very poor prognosis, making it currently the fourth common causes of cancer mortality in most developed countries including the European Union (EU). Its incidence varies across regions, which suggests that lifestyle factors play an important role in its etiology, although part of the variation could be ascribed to difference in diagnostic and coding practices. Because pancreatic cancer is strongly age-dependent, increasing population longevity and ageing will lead to an increase of the global burden of pancreatic cancer. It was estimated that, by 2040, the total number of cases in the EU will increase by more than 30%. Pancreatic cancer is a multifactorial disease and many risk factors have been identified. Hereditary factors are responsible for less than 10% of the cases while tobacco smoking and excess body weight, the two most important potentially modifiable risk factors, are responsible for 10 to 30% of the cases, affording a unique opportunity for preventing one of our deadliest cancers.

Epidemiology and burden of pancreatic cancer.

Cancer is a leading cause of disease burden in Australia, particularly fatal burden, accounting for an estimated thirty percent of deaths. Many cancers develop because of exposure to lifestyle and environmental factors that are potentially modifiable. We aimed to quantify the proportions and numbers of cancer deaths and cases in Australia in 2013 attributable to 20 modifiable factors in eight broad groupings that are established causes of cancer, namely: tobacco smoke (smoking and second-hand), dietary factors (low intake of fruit, non-starchy vegetables and dietary fibre; and high intake of red and processed meat), overweight/obesity, alcohol, physical inactivity, solar ultraviolet radiation, infections (seven agents), and reproductive factors (lack of breastfeeding, menopausal hormone therapy use, combined oral contraceptive use). We estimated population attributable fractions (PAF) using standard formulae incorporating exposure prevalence and relative risk data. Of all cancer deaths in Australia in 2013, approximately 38% overall (males 41%, females 34%) could be attributed to the factors assessed; the corresponding PAF for cancer cases was 33% (males 34%, females 32%). Tobacco smoke was the leading cause of cancer deaths and cases, with PAFs of 23 and 13%, respectively, followed by dietary factors (5% deaths/5% cases), overweight/obesity (5%/4%) and infections (5%/3%). Cancer sites with the highest numbers of potentially preventable deaths/cases were lung (n = 6,776/9,272), colorectum (n = 1,974/7,380) and cutaneous melanoma (n = 1,390/7,918). We estimate that about 16,700 cancer deaths and 41,200 cancer cases could be prevented in Australia each year if people's exposures to 20 causal factors were aligned with levels recommended to minimise cancer risk.

Many human cancers develop as a result of exposure to risk factors related to the environment and ways of life. The aim of this study was to estimate attributable fractions of 25 types of cancers resulting from exposure to modifiable risk factors in Brazil. The prevalence of exposure to selected risk factors among adults was obtained from population-based surveys conducted from 2000 to 2008. Risk estimates were based on data drawn from meta-analyses or large, high quality studies. Population-attributable fractions (PAF) for a combination of risk factors, as well as the number of preventable deaths and cancer cases, were calculated for 2020. The known preventable risk factors studied will account for 34% of cancer cases among men and 35% among women in 2020, and for 46% and 39% deaths, respectively. The highest attributable fractions were estimated for tobacco smoking, infections, low consumption of fruits and vegetables, excess weight, reproductive factors, and physical inactivity. This is the first study to systematically estimate the fraction of cancer attributable to potentially modifiable risk factors in Brazil. Strategies for primary prevention of tobacco smoking and control of infection and the promotion of a healthy diet and physical activity should be the main priorities in policies for cancer prevention in the country.

Resumo O câncer e a segunda causa de morte no mundo com grande impacto na saude publica e as leucemias sao cânceres hematologicos relacionados a diferentes exposicoes no trabalho. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever o perfil ocupacional de individuos diagnosticados com leucemia. Trata-se de um estudo transversal de casos cadastrados entre 2007 e 2011 no banco de dados do IntegradorRHC. Foram incluidos individuos de 26 estados brasileiros, com 20 anos ou mais. Do total de 7807 casos de leucemia, Minas Gerais registrou a maior ocorrencia (1351). Em apenas 52% dos casos havia informacoes sobre a ocupacao. As ocupacoes com maior numero de casos de leucemias foram: trabalhadores agropecuarios, florestais e da pesca; de servicos, vendedores do comercio em lojas e mercados e da producao de bens e servicos industriais. Tais ocupacoes apresentam exposicao a substâncias consideradas pela literatura como agentes cancinogenicos para humanos. Observou-se elevado subregistro de dados referentes a ocupacao comprometendo a qualidade da informacao e, por conseguinte, a efetividade do sistema de vigilância em saude no Brasil. O RHC tambem nao fornece informacoes sobre o agente utilizado durante a jornada de trabalho, o tempo de exposicao no decorrer de sua vida laboral, bem como dados de ocupacoes previas.

Análise de indivíduos com leucemia: limitações do sistema de vigilância de câncer

O câncer de pele e um problema de saude publica relevante; mas; apesar disso, ha poucos estudosdisponibilizados no Brasil que discorrem sobre as lesoes pre-malignas da pele. Objetivos: Descrever as caracteristicasde uma populacao rural, que exerce suas atividades laborais ao ar livre, e analisar a associacao quanto a presenca delesoes cutâneas pre-malignas. Metodo: Inquerito populacional realizado em um municipio rural do Sul do pais, entre2010-2011. Participaram desse estudo 242 individuos com idade ≥40 anos, de ambos os sexos, que relataram trabalharao ar livre. Entrevistas foram realizadas e medicos dermatologistas da Rede de Referencia Hospitalar Regional avaliarampresenca de lesoes na pele. Foram definidas como desfecho todas as lesoes cutâneas pre-malignas encontradas nessapopulacao. Resultados: A prevalencia de lesoes cutâneas na populacao de estudo foi de 29,3% (71 casos). Na analisede associacao ajustada, observou-se que a chance dos individuos com idade ≥60 anos terem lesoes cutâneas foi quatrovezes maior em relacao aos que tinham menor idade (OR=4,05; IC95% 1,89-8,70). Uma maior chance de desenvolverlesoes cutâneas tambem foi observada entre os participantes classificados como fototipo de pele I-II em relacao aos deoutros tipos de pele (OR=2,99; IC95% 1,58- 5,66), e os que trabalhavam na agricultura e/ou pecuaria em relacao asoutras atividades (OR=2,04; IC95% 1,01-4,14). Conclusao: Individuos com fototipo de pele I-II e trabalhadores queexercem suas funcoes ao ar livre fazem parte de grupos especificos com maior risco para câncer de pele. Estrategias deprevencao e deteccao precoce das lesoes cutâneas devem ser prioritariamente implementadas nesses grupos...
