Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Cancer is one of the major causes of death in countries across the world. However, at least half of cancers could be prevented. This article reviews the relationship between cancer incidence and the major risk factors: tobacco use, exposure to infections, nutrition, obesity and physical activity. Several major current cancer prevention initiatives are presented, including the effort for global tobacco control, vaccination programs for human papilloma virus, chemoprevention, and cohort studies to identify and elucidate cancer causes. Two concerns that cross the cancer prevention research spectrum are the importance of social determinants of health, and the potential role of genetic factors in explaining cancer incidence and guiding intervention development. In the future, optimism is warranted regarding cancer prevention. If currently known criteria are applied and extended, significant reductions in cancer rates are possible.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
