Genetic risk factors modulate the association between physical activity and colorectal cancer Open
Background Physical activity (PA) is an established protective factor for colorectal cancer (CRC), but it is unclear if genetic variants modify this effect. To investigate this possibility, we conducted a genome-wide gene–PA interaction an…

Models of care and associated targeted implementation strategies for cancer survivorship support in Europe: a scoping review protocol Open
Introduction Cancer and its treatments can lead to a wide range of side-effects that can persist long after treatments have ended. Across Europe, survivorship care is traditionally hospital-based specialist-led follow-up, leading to gaps i…

Polygenic score distribution differences across European ancestry populations: implications for breast cancer risk prediction Open
Our results demonstrate that PRS distribution differs even within European ancestry populations leading to underestimation or overestimation of risk in specific European countries, which could potentially influence clinical management of s…

Combined lifestyle factors on mortality and cardiovascular disease among cancer survivors: a systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies Open
Purpose Lifestyle factors in cancer survivors are frequently studied individually even though they are often interconnected. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the association of combined lifestyle factors on health outc…

Combined healthy lifestyle factors and psychosocial outcomes among cancer survivors: a systematic review and meta-analysis Open
Purpose This systematic review aims to summarize the associations between combined healthy lifestyles and psychosocial outcomes (health-related quality of life (HRQOL), depression, anxiety, psychological distress (PD), and posttraumatic st…

Changes in breast cancer incidence and surgical treatment in Baden–Württemberg (Germany) during the COVID-19 pandemic Open
The COVID-19 pandemic affected the diagnostics and treatment of breast cancer. Numerous studies reported an early decline in breast cancer (BC) incidence during the COVID-19 pandemic. Less evidence is available on changes in medical care. …

Anxiety and depression in cancer patients and survivors in the context of restrictions in contact and oncological care during the <span>COVID</span>‐19 pandemic Open
Treatment modifications and contact restrictions were common during the COVID‐19 pandemic and can be stressors for mental health. There is a lack of studies assessing pandemic‐related risk factors for anxiety and depression of cancer patie…

Two genome-wide interaction loci modify the association of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs with colorectal cancer Open
Regular, long-term aspirin use may act synergistically with genetic variants, particularly those in mechanistically relevant pathways, to confer a protective effect on colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. We leveraged pooled data from 52 clinical…

Genetic risk impacts the association of menopausal hormone therapy with colorectal cancer risk Open
BackgroundMenopausal hormone therapy (MHT), a common treatment to relieve symptoms of menopause, is associated with a lower risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). To inform CRC risk prediction and MHT risk-benefit assessment, we aimed to evaluat…

Differences in polygenic score distributions in European ancestry populations: implications for breast cancer risk prediction Open
The 313-variant polygenic risk score (PRS 313 ) provides a promising tool for breast cancer risk prediction. However, evaluation of the PRS 313 across different European populations which could influence risk estimation has not been perfor…

Diabetes mellitus in long‐term survivors with colorectal, breast, or prostate cancer: Prevalence and prognosis. A population‐based study Open
Background Patients with cancer are at increased risk of diabetes mellitus (DM). Previous studies on the prevalence and prognostic impact of DM in cancer survivors were limited by small sample sizes or short follow‐up times. We aimed to co…

Trends in cancer incidence by socioeconomic deprivation in Germany in 2007 to 2018: An ecological registry‐based study Open
Age‐standardized cancer incidence has decreased over the last years for many cancer sites in developed countries. Whether these trends led to narrowing or widening socioeconomic inequalities in cancer incidence is unknown. Using cancer reg…
