Figure 1: Leading Cancer sites among Sri Lankan women
(National Cancer Control Program – 2009)
The most common gynecological cancer in the world
The most common among Sri Lankan women
Over 508,000 women died worldwide due to breast cancer in 2011 – (WHO, 2013)
Identification of risk factors, their distribution among population and risk assessment in healthy women promote screening
Number of deaths due to breast cancer is increasing
majority of cases are diagnosed at late stage
Routine screening is important for early detection
reduce the burden of breast cancer
Risk factors of breast
cancer
Heredity
Reproduction
Behavior
Diet
Diet and behavior can be modified to reduce the risk of breast cancer
Objectives
To determine the prevalence of established risk factors
of breast cancer among apparently healthy women
To identify the difference in the presence of risk factors
between two geographical locations
To estimate the lifetime breast cancer risk of apparently
healthy women in two geographical locations
Methodology
Sample selection
Data collection
100 individuals from Kandy
and 150 from Jaffna
Interviewer administered
general questionnaire
Interviewer administered
food frequency questionnaire
Data analysis Physical Activity Level (PAL) –
General Practice Physical Activity Questionnaire
Statistical analysis Descriptive statistics Chi-square tests and independent t-
tests – identify the difference in the presence of risk factors in selected two geographical locations
Breast cancer risk assessment
– Gail breast cancer risk
