Pregnancy After Breast Cancer in Young BRCA Carriers An International Hospital-Based Cohort Study
M Lambertini et al, JAMA Network Open, December 7, 2023 (Posted Dec 08, 2023 2PM)

From the abstract: "Among women carrying germline BRCA pathogenic variants, is pregnancy after breast cancer associated with adverse maternal or fetal outcomes? This international, hospital-based, retrospective cohort study including 4732 BRCA carriers showed that 1 in 5 patients conceived within 10 years after breast cancer diagnosis. Pregnancy following breast cancer in BRCA carriers was not associated with adverse maternal prognosis or fetal outcomes. The cumulative incidence of pregnancy after breast cancer and disease-free survival in this large international cohort of young BRCA carriers may inform care for affected patients. "

Machine learning improves prediction of clinical outcomes for invasive breast cancers.
et al. Nat Med 2023 11 (Posted Dec 01, 2023 7AM)

From the article: " A prognostic model for invasive breast cancer that is based on interpretable measurements of epithelial, stromal, and immune components outperforms histologic grading by expert pathologists. This model could improve clinical management of patients diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and address the concerns of pathologists about artificial intelligence (AI) trustworthiness by providing transparent and explainable predictions."

Latina immigrants' breast and colon cancer causal attributions: genetics is key.
Katie Fiallos et al. J Community Genet 2023 11 (Posted Dec 01, 2023 7AM)

From the abstract: "Participants answered semi-structured, open-ended questions regarding the risk factors and rankings. Interviews were transcribed and subjected to thematic analysis. CCA showed no consensus around rank of causes for either cancer, and residual agreement analysis suggested the presence of two subcultural groups. “Genetics” and “hereditary factors” ranked first and second on average across participants for both cancers. Based on interview data, participants were less aware of colon cancer than breast cancer. Participants’ endorsement of heredity as a cause of breast and colon cancer was similar to beliefs reported in studies of primarily non-Latina populations. "

Primary Care Provider Receptivity to Multi-Cancer Early Detection Test Use in Cancer Screening
CV Chambers et al, JPM, November 2023 (Posted Nov 30, 2023 9AM)

From the abstract: "Multi-cancer early detection tests (MCEDs) are blood-based tests that detect biomarkers released or induced by cancer cells. If MCED tests are shown to be safe and effective in cancer screening, they are likely to be ordered and managed in primary care. To understand primary care providers’ support for and concerns about the implementation and management of MCED testing, the research team developed a cross-sectional survey that was sent to 939 primary care providers (physicians, residents/fellows, and advanced practice providers) in a large academic health system.
