We estimated exposure prevalence from representative health surveys. We combined these estimates to calculate Population Attributable Fractions (PAFs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), and compared PAFs for population subgroups. During the first 10 years follow‐up, there were 640 incident breast cancers for premenopausal women, 2,632 for postmenopausal women, and 8,761 deaths from any cause. Of future breast cancers for premenopausal women, any regular alcohol consumption explains 12.6% (CI = 4.3–20.2%), current use of oral contraceptives for ≥5 years 7.1% (CI = 0.3–13.5%), and these factors combined 18.8% (CI = 9.1–27.4%). Of future breast cancers for postmenopausal women, overweight or obesity (BMI ≥25 kg/m2) explains 12.8% (CI = 7.8–17.5%), current use of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) 6.9% (CI = 4.8–8.9%), any regular alcohol consumption 6.6% (CI = 1.5–11.4%), and these factors combined 24.2% (CI = 17.6–30.3%). The MHT‐related postmenopausal breast cancer burden varied by body fatness, alcohol consumption and socio‐economic status, the body fatness‐related postmenopausal breast cancer burden by alcohol consumption and educational attainment, and the alcohol‐related postmenopausal breast cancer burden by breast feeding history. Our results provide evidence to support targeted and population‐level cancer control activities.]]> Tue 25 Oct 2022 09:19:19 AEDT ]]> The burden of pancreatic cancer in Australia attributable to smoking https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47647 P = 0.007) and for those under 65 (19.0%; 95% CI, 8.1–28.6%) than for older people (6.6%; 95% CI, 1.9–11.1%; P = 0.030). There were no independent relationships between body mass index or alcohol consumption and pancreatic cancer. Conclusions: Strategies that reduce the uptake of smoking and encourage current smokers to quit could substantially reduce the future incidence of pancreatic cancer in Australia, particularly among men.]]> Tue 24 Jan 2023 14:51:37 AEDT ]]> The future colorectal cancer burden attributable to modifiable behaviors: a pooled cohort study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35110 Pdifference < .001). The burden attributed to these factors was also higher for those born in Australia (28.7%) than elsewhere (16.8%, Pdifference = .047). We observed modification of the smoking-attributable burden by alcohol consumption and educational attainment, and modification of the obesity-attributable burden by age group and birthplace. Conclusions: We produced up-to-date estimates of the future CRC burden attributed to modifiable behaviors. We revealed novel differences between men and women, and other high–CRC burden subgroups that could potentially benefit most from programs that support behavioral change and early detection.]]> Thu 24 Mar 2022 11:32:50 AEDT ]]> The burden of cancer attributable to modifiable risk factors: the Australian cancer-PAF cohort consortium https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30583 Thu 17 Mar 2022 14:38:56 AEDT ]]> The preventable burden of endometrial and ovarian cancers in Australia: a pooled cohort study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35870 Fri 21 Oct 2022 11:25:56 AEDT ]]>
