{"title":"A Framework for Aligning 5-Year and Lifetime Breast Cancer Risk in Women Without High-Penetrance Mutations.","authors":"Graham A Colditz, Debbie L Bennett, Kala Visvanathan, Bernie A Rosner, Shu Jiang","doi":"10.1093/jbi/wbag011","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/jbi/wbag011","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Objective: </strong>Reconciling cutoff thresholds for short-term (5-year) and long-term (lifetime) breast cancer risk could support tailored and evidence-based approaches to supplemental screening and risk management most relevant to short-term clinical actions. This study aims to consistently classify women at increased risk and provide 5-year risk cutoff that corresponds to a 20% lifetime risk.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Using U.S. Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program population incidence data for women 40 to 74 years of age, this study reports both lifetime and 5-year population-based risk estimates controlling for competing risk and age varying breast cancer incidence. A cut point for 5-year risk equivalent to lifetime risk of 20% which triggers increased screening is generated. This computation is a weighted average incorporating age, remaining life expectancy, and population risk distribution. The primary outcome is breast cancer incidence (in situ and invasive).</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A lifetime risk threshold of 20% corresponded to markedly age-dependent 5-year risk cut points, increasing from ∼1.3% at ages 40-44 to ∼10.9% at ages 70-74. For women 40-74, 20% lifetime risk corresponds to a 5-year risk cut-off of 3.16%.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Aligning lifetime risk of ≥20% and the 5-year breast cancer risk cutoff enhances consistency of classification of women at increased risk and clinical decision-making. Women with a ≥3.16% 5-year risk of breast cancer have risk equivalent to a lifetime risk of ≥20% on average. This can facilitate rational and evidence-based approaches to short-term and long-term risk assessment results for both risk reduction and tailored screening.</p>","PeriodicalId":43134,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Breast Imaging","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147784586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The supply-demand gap is expected to widen as the demand for radiology services outpaces radiologist positions.

The \"Stay Interview\" is a retention strategy to gauge an employee's outlook in the workplace and assess individual likes and dislikes. With bi-directional communication between employer and employee, radiology practices can make small adaptations to prioritize joy and satisfaction in the workplace, potentially reducing attrition. Maslow's hierarchy of needs are explored as they relate to the workplace.

Our purpose was to conduct PICK chart prioritization exercises with a low income, diverse community advisory group to identify and prioritize patient and community centered interventions to reduce mammography screening disparities. Community advisory focus group was composed of 22 adults from low-income neighborhoods in Madison, Wisconsin. Included participants were from the Wisconsin Network for Research Support Community Advisory on Research Design and Strategies, recruited from community centers and food banks that serve individuals from diverse racial, socioeconomic, and educational backgrounds. Structured, divergent thinking brainstorming sessions were conducted to identify interventions to improve the mammography screening process. The idea generation process revealed 52 unique ideas across 7 process map domains. Among participants, the most highly cited ideas that were classified as high impact, low effort ideas included: reminders, sharing positive stories about mammography experiences, offering reassurance during mammograms, and reducing co-pays.
