In a randomized trial of 106 adolescents and young adults with hereditary cancer predisposition, adding AYA-RISE to a clinic visit improved knowledge of cancer risk before age 30 compared with a clinic visit alone. Researchers observed no increase in distress, but the main analyses did not establish additional benefits for lifetime-risk or screening knowledge.

 Finnish study finds poor oral health increases jawbone necrosis risks in breast cancer patients
 
Finnish study finds poor oral health increases jawbone necrosis risks in breast cancer patientsAntiresorptive drugs, which reduce bone breakdown, are an important part of treatment for breast cancer that has spread to the bones. However, their use can be associated with osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), a condition in which bone tissue in the jaw dies.

Lack of primary care increases early breast cancer death riskPeople who are marginalized or lack access to a primary care provider are at greater risk of early death from newly diagnosed (de novo) metastatic breast cancer, according to research in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal)
 
 
 Most frail breast cancer survivors lack Medicare home care
 
Most frail breast cancer survivors lack Medicare home careFor the increasing number of women that survive breast cancer, many older, long-term survivors remain frail. A new study out today in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute shows that in a given year over half of these highly frail survivors had no Medicare home health care.
