- W2892839062 abstract "Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among Malaysian women, with a rising incidence from 16.5% in 2006%–17.7% in 2011. One of the key strategies in breast cancer control is early screening; of which mammography is a highly accurate tool, having been shown to reduce the number of mortality rates due to breast cancer up to 30%. However, mammography is often not as widely available in Malaysia; and in many local settings, healthcare providers have to limit screenings to only particular groups such as those with abnormal clinical breast examinations due to limited resources. Knowledge of other predictive factors may assist in further decision-making to prioritize patients for screening mammography in a low-resource setting. Aim: This study aimed to determine such predictive factors for abnormal mammogram findings among women who underwent mammography examination at a center in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of women (n = 5491) who underwent a three-dimensional tomosynthesis mammography procedure at the Cancer and Health Screening Clinic, National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM) in Kuala Lumpur, from Jan 2016 until Dec 2017 (2 years). Patients were surveyed on: i) age, ii) ethnicity, iii) family history of breast or any cancers, if any, iv) reproductive history (age of menarche, age of first delivery, age of menopause); and v) history of postmenopausal estrogen and hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Bivariate analysis was conducted by using χ 2 tests in determining associations between variables and a multiple logistic regression model built to identify factors which were predictive of an abnormal mammogram finding (BI-RADS 4 & 5). Results: From the bivariate analysis; nulliparous status ( P = 0.02), a family history of breast cancer ( P = 0.04), and a history of postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy (HRT) ( P = 0.01) were determined to significantly associated with an abnormal mammogram finding. There were also significant ethnic differences between women who had abnormal mammogram findings; with Chinese women having highest odds of this (OR:3.22; 95% CI 1.86-5.74). Women within the age group of 45-54 (OR:1.84, 95% CI 1.19-3.12), a family history of breast cancer (OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.31-3.27) or any cancer (OR 1.56, 95% CI 1.06-2.94), age of menopause (OR 2.86; 95% CI 1.43-4.02) and age of first delivery above 30 (OR 1.73, 95% CI 1.26-3.45) were significantly associated with abnormal mammogram findings. Conclusion: Factors which predict abnormal mammogram findings in a Malaysian setting can be used as baseline evidence to formulate criteria which can be used to carry out targeted screening programs or even as cutoff criteria for focusing screening resources in resource-limited settings. This data may be of benefit in aiding healthcare providers in provisioning of services at a macro level as well as for frontline healthcare personnel in helping them profile women who should be focused on to be screened for the disease." @default.
