Disease relevance of Mammography

 

Psychiatry related information on Mammography

  • Significant effects reported included reductions in cholesterol and blood pressure levels, weight, and disease symptoms and increases in the use of mammography and breast self-examination [6].
  • CONCLUSIONS: Preliminary evaluations of the CADMIUM II prototype reinforce the value of representing explicitly decision making processes in computer aided mammography and of deriving these processes from image processing measurements [7].
  • The behaviors studied were smoking cessation, quitting cocaine, weight control, high-fat diets, adolescent delinquent behaviors, safer sex, condom use, sunscreen use, radon gas exposure, exercise acquisition, mammography screening, and physicians' preventive practices with smokers [8].
  • The authors examined the impact of psychological distress and the personality construct of conscientiousness (as measured by the Neuroticism, Extraversion, and Openness-Five Factor Inventory) on mammography utilization among women who were at increased risk for breast cancer [9].
  • The first Navajo-language video to address such cultural barriers, it discusses the triad of early detection-breast self-examination, clinical examination, and mammography [10].

Associations of Mammography with chemical compounds

  • The Women's Leadership Summit on Mammography held at the U.S. Capitol [27].
  • METHODS: We obtained formalin-fixed biopsy specimens of breast tissue excised from 128 patients with breast lesions detected by mammography [28].
  • Nonetheless, in patients younger than 60 years of age, both 6 and 12 months of therapy compared favorably with other established medical interventions, such as screening mammography and cholesterol reduction programs [29].
  • SETTING: Mammography registries in California (n = 1), New Hampshire (n = 1), New Mexico (n = 1), Vermont (n = 1), Washington State n = 2), and Colorado (n = 1) [30].
  • Measured mammography spectra for a molybdenum target-molybdenum filter unit were utilized [31].
 

Gene context of Mammography

  • Screening with clinical breast examination and mammography showed lower sensitivity in BRCA1 or BRCA2 carriers than in the general population [32].
  • The difference between CE MRI and mammography sensitivities was particularly pronounced in BRCA1 carriers (13 cancers; 92%vs 23%, p=0.004) [33].
  • RESULTS: Mammography use between waves increased significantly (P < 0.05 after adjusting for education, income, and age) in all but one area (from 19% to 33% in wave 1 to 35% to 59% in wave 2) [34].
  • Sixty-eight BRCA-families underwent surveillance using annual mammography, transvaginal ultrasound, and estimation of CA125 [35].
  • Pilot studies of aromatase inhibitors described elsewhere in this session have begun in healthy women with dense mammography, or a high-risk genetic and/or histocytopathologic profile, to determine potential efficacy, as well as effects on end-organ function [36].
