Study: Tamoxifen not likely to prevent many breast cancers in at-risk women
Study: Tamoxifen not likely to prevent many breast cancers in at-risk women
Research has shown that the drug tamoxifen citrate not only helps prevent recurrence of breast cancer, but it also can keep the deadly disease from occurring in the first place in some women. But a new University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill study indicates it's unlikely that tamoxifen will ever be given widely to women to prevent breast cancer. That's because the drug would avert only a maximum of 6 percent to 8.3 percent of breast tumors in eligible women, UNC School of Medicine researchers have found.

Although rates of blood cancer have been rising steadily for the past 50 years, its incidence in Asia is much lower than in the West. Professor Moolky Nagabhushan, of the Loyola University Medical Centre in Chicago has suggested that this could be, in part, due to turmeric.

Study finds chemotherapy helps women with localized ovarian cancer
Study finds chemotherapy helps women with localized ovarian cancer
A new study finds chemotherapy improves survival and reduces the risk of recurrence in women with stage I ovarian cancer (cancer that has not spread beyond the ovary). But it remains unclear which patients would most benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy and what the optimal treatment regimen would entail.
The findings come from an analytical review of data from 13 randomized control trials (RCTs), which will be published in the November 1, 2004 issue of CANCER

For Elderly, Mediterranean Diet Adds Up
A new study shows that elderly people who stick to a Mediterranean diet, exercise at least 30 minutes a day, and have moderate alcohol use can cut their risk of dying in half. The diet is rich in plant foods and fish, low in meat and dairy and has a high ratio of monounsaturated fats to polyunsaturated fats. Approximately 1,500 people were studied in the Netherlands over a 12-year period. NPR's Patricia Neighmond reports.
