It includes screening tests that can identify and treat cancer early in its development. While effective tests for population screening are in place for only a few cancers (breast, cervix, lung and colorectal cancer), primary and secondary (early detection) strategies can reduce the cancer burden by one third to a half and are therefore cost effective and core components of a national cancer control strategy. </p></div> </div> </qz-section> </div> </div> <div> <a class="on-page-anchor" id="51532"></a> </div> <div> <div> <qz-section color="orange" spacing="bottom-none top-small"> <strong class="text-left"></strong> <h2 class="text-left"> <a name="-cancer-risk-factors-and-prevention">Cancer risk factors and prevention</a> </h2> <i class="text-left"></i> </qz-section> </div> </div> <div> <div> <qz-section spacing="bottom-small top-none"> <div class="text"> <div><p>A cancer risk factor is anything that increases a person's likelihood of developing cancer.

However, people who do not use tobacco but who are exposed to second-hand smoke at home, work or in other public places also have an increased risk of developing lung diseases, including chronic respiratory diseases and lung cancer.</p> <h3>Prevention</h3> <p>Governments should implement measures outlined in the <a href="https://fctc.who.int/who-fctc/overview">Framework Convention on Tobacco Control</a> (FCTC), such as increasing taxes, plain packaging, banning advertising and promotion, eliminating exposure to second-hand smoke, educating the public about tobacco harm, providing suitable cessation services and taking action against illicit trade. </p> <h4><span class="text-orange"><strong>For more information on tobacco control and cancer, <a href="/node/24954">please visit UICC's dedicated webpage</a>.</strong></span></h4></div> </div> </qz-section> </div> </div> </div> </div> </qz-accordion> </qz-section> </div> <div> <qz-section theme="light" spacing="bottom-none top-none" class="paragraph--accordion"> <qz-accordion theme="light"> <h3 slot="invoker"> <button> Alcohol <qz-icon name="plus" opener aria-hidden="true"></qz-icon> <qz-icon name="close" closer aria-hidden="true"></qz-icon> </button> </h3> <div slot="content"> <div> <div> <div> <qz-section spacing="bottom-small top-none"> <div class="text"> <div><p>The number of <a href="https://www.uicc.org/what-we-do/sharing-knowledge/virtual-dialogues/alcohol-and-cancer-series" title="Alcohol and Cancer series">cancer cases due to alcohol</a> is estimated to be more than 740,000 per year. The risk of cancer increases with the amount of alcohol consumed by an individual. Alcohol consumption is a risk factor for multiple cancers including oral, pharynx, larynx, oesophagus, liver, pancreas, colorectal and breast. People who use both alcohol and tobacco have a 5-fold increased risk of developing cancers of the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and oesophagus compared to people who use either alcohol or tobacco alone. For heavy users, the risk is up to 30 times higher.</p> <h3>Prevention</h3> <p><a href="https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789241565639">The Global report on alcohol and SAFER</a> offers guidelines to reducing the consumption of alcohol. Proven effective measures include increasing excise tax, enforcing bans on alcohol advertising, enforcing drink-driving laws and limiting blood alcohol concentration, providing psychosocial support, enforcing minimum age for alcohol purchase, and restricting or banning promotions of alcoholic beverages to young people. There is also a growing body of evidence supporting the effectiveness of warning labels on alcohol packaging.</p> <h4><span class="text-orange"><strong>For more information on alcohol and cancer, <a href="/node/33969">please visit UICC's dedicated webpage</a>.</strong></span></h4></div> </div> </qz-section> </div> </div> </div> </div> </qz-accordion> </qz-section> </div> <div> <qz-section theme="light" spacing="bottom-none top-none" class="paragraph--accordion"> <qz-accordion theme="light"> <h3 slot="invoker"> <button> Obesity <qz-icon name="plus" opener aria-hidden="true"></qz-icon> <qz-icon name="close" closer aria-hidden="true"></qz-icon> </button> </h3> <div slot="content"> <div> <div> <div> <qz-section spacing="bottom-small top-none"> <div class="text"> <div><p><strong>Overweight</strong> (<a href="https://www.who.int/data/gho/data/themes/topics/topic-details/GHO/body-mass-index">body mass index</a> or BMI above 25) and <strong>obesity</strong> (BMI above 30) are linked to several cancer types, including of the oesophagus, breast, endometrium and colorectum.
