Filter by:- Cancer is now becoming a chronic condition though it was, until a short time ago, a fatal illness. Thus, according to the French national cancer institute, nearly 4 million French people have been diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. - Screening is used to detect the presence of a pathology at an early, infra-clinical stage, or the presence of a risk factor in people who are supposedly healthy. - There are three organized screening programs in France (breast cancer, colorectal cancer, cervical cancer), as well as many others recommended by learned societies such as the National Authority for Health . However, they are underused, far from European recommendations and government targets. - According to DREES (research, studies, evaluation and statistic department), public health and primary prevention interventions could have prevented 143 deaths per 100.000 inhabitants, and healthcare interventions could have spared 59 deaths per 100.000 inhabitants, for a total of 202 avoidable deaths per 100.000 inhabitants in France in 2020. - As for cancers, French national cancer institute estimates the rate of avoidable cancers in France in 2023 at 40%. Breast cancer, for example, is the most common cancer that can be associated with alcohol consumption and estimations suggest that nearly 20.000 breast cancers could be prevented each year (a third of new cancer cases in 2018). - In France, prevention accounts for 5.5% of healthcare expenses in 2021, with 46% for individual primary prevention, 41% for individual secondary prevention and 12% for collective prevention and prevention programs. These healthcare expenses must be set against the social cost of each risk factor, to see how important they are. - Relative burden of cancer and noncancer mortality among long-term survivors of breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer in the US has been demonstrated. It shows that "patients with low oncologic risk at the time of diagnosis had at least 3-fold higher risk of noncancer death compared with death from the index cancer". - In France, medical desertification is a reality. Now, according to the VICAN-5 study, nearly a third of cancer patients are not followed up by general practitioners. Though primary prevention is one of GP's prerogatives and a governmental priority. - There is a high interest in screening and preventive action to limit the risk of other avoidable pathologies, whether cancerous or not. The research hypothesis is that a customized screening will enable the implementation of comprehensive preventive action to limit the onset of avoidable diseases (second cancer or other pathology) for cancer survivors.
Few data about the evaluation of consequences of past life with cancer on life quality of children in school reintegration are available in literature. Nevertheless, some of these studies show that the reintegration impairs life quality of these children (school difficulties, conflictual relations with peers…). The hypothesis is that children with past life with cancer have more chances to have school integration difficulties with a consequent life quality degradation compared to healthy children. The main objective of this project is to study the relation between the satisfaction of school reintegration of children in cancer remission and the evolution of life quality in the medium term (after getting back to school). More exactly, it is the question if the satisfaction of school reintegration influences life goals and priorities of these children. The secondary objective is to study the role of psychological status of these children (anxiety, depressive symptoms) on satisfaction-life quality relation. A group of children with cancer history sent to ordinary school is compared to a control group of children sent to school in the same conditions (sex and age matched). Data are collected with questionnaires some months to several years after school reintegration and same questionnaires 1 year later. If the study hypothesis is confirmed, this study will show the necessity of a long term follow up of children in cancer remission and not only medical care, but also psychological and social care, in order to support a better school reintegration.
