Breast cancer is the most frequent tumor in Western women. In Spain about 26,000 new breast cancers are diagnosed each year. This type of tumor is increasing worldwide with an increase in aggressive neoplasms in young women. There are some risk factors responsible for this global increase: lifestyle, diet and body weight especially in postmenopausal women.
Some cell mutations, especially in the BRCA1, BRCA2 and p53 genes, are associated with a very high risk of this type of cancer. Some authors have calculated the contribution of various modifiable risk factors to the global burden of breast cancer, and they concluded that 21% of all breast cancer deaths are attributable to alcohol consumption, overweight and obesity, and lack of physical activity. Nowadays, there aren't specific studies in the Community of Madrid designed to know the risk factors related to breast cancer.
For this reason, it is proposed to carry out an observational study that collects detailed information about dietary habits, genetic factors and life quality of a group of women with recent diagnosis in pre or post-surgical phase.
12,544 studies on the registry are indexed under Breast Neoplasms; 2,892 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 66 is below the median of 184 across 2,642 observational studies indexed under Breast Neoplasms.
