Breast cancer is a type of malignant tumor that most commonly affects women around the world, both in the developed and developing countries, as evidenced by the discovery of 1:38 million new cases and 458 400 deaths from breast cancer in 2008. In Indonesia, breast cancer is now the number one killer and every year there are an estimated 100 new cases per 100,000 population in Indonesia. This can be prevented by spreading knowledge about cancer and early detection by performing routine breast self-examination. The American Cancer Society recommends breast self-examination performed on women aged 20 years. Students of non-health is one component of society that have a high level of knowledge, but less exposure to health problems.This study uses observational analytic with cross sectional approach. The subjects of this study were non-health students from Islamic faculty, agriculture faculty, and engineering faculty. The number of samples in this study was 209 respondents. The level of knowledge about breast tumor, BSE, and BSE behavior was assessed using a questionnaire followed by interview. The results obtained were processed using a computerized system with the Spearman correlation test.The results showed that there is a relationship between the level of knowledge about BSE and BSE behavior in non-health student although statistical tests showed no signifi cant correlation p 0.680 (p> 0.05). The relationship between the level of knowledge about BSE and BSE behavior on non-health student infl uenced by various factors including experience, education, resources, and bridged by a positive attitude.Keywords: Knowledge Level, Behaviour, Breast Self-Examination (BSE), Non-health Students

Introduction: breast cancer, as the most common cancer among women, is controllable if it is diagnosed at the early stages. Breast self- examination is a simple method for early detection. One of the most important effective factors on the cancer-related mortality is the defection stage. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between breast self-examination and the disease stage with regard to the detection time among patients with breast cancer in Yazd. Method: this cross-sectional study was carried out on 159 women with breast cancer, who referred to medical centers in Yazd. Data collection tool was a questionnaire with two parts. The first part was the demographic information and the second part dealt with the patients' breast self-examination before the detection of their disease. The disease stage in the detection time was determined based on the results of the pathology test. Data were analyzed using χ2 and other description tests by SPSS. Result: A statistically signification relationship was observed between disease stage at the defection time and breast self-examination. The disease was detected earlier in individuals who reported a higher frequency of breast self-examination in comparison with those who did not. Conclusion: Breast self-examination affects the early detection of breast cancer and those who were educated had better practice. So, the results show the importance of educational programs in this regard.

Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that grows in the breast tissue. Every year more than 185,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer. The incidence of this disease is increasing in developed countries. Around 43,500 deaths from breast cancer each year make this disease the second largest cause of death after lung cancer in women. Knowing the effect of the implementation of breast self-examination (BSE) on the knowledge of students in the early detection of breast cancer. This type of research is quantitative research with a research design using Quasi-Experimental. The instrument used for knowledge was a questionnaire while for the ability to use observation sheets. The sampling technique in this study used Porposive Sampling with a total sample of 68 people. Data processing using Wilcoxon statistical tests. The results of this study indicate that the majority of respondents after being given a penkes have a good level of knowledge about BSE that is 62 people (91.2%). While the sufficient level of knowledge about BSE is 6 people (8.8%). From the results of statistical tests of knowledge and ability before and after health education, the value of p = 0,000 (p <0.05) can be concluded that there is an effect of health education about breast self-examination (BSE) on students' knowledge in efforts to detect breast cancer at the Imelda Health Vocational School Field.

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death caused by cancer in women. Breast cancer (carcinoma mammae) is a condition in which cells have lost control and normal mechanisms, resulting in abnormal growth, rapid and uncontrolled that occurs in breast tissue. The only effective way to detect breast cancer early to date is only to detect as early as possible on the possibility of this disease, namely by doing Breast Self-Examination (BSE). This action is very important because almost 85% of breast lumps are found by the sufferers themselves. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge, attitudes and motivation towards breast self-examination (BSE) in high school 9 Makassar students. This type of research was observational research with a cross sectional approach, using a sample of 182 class XI and XII students. The results of this study indicate there was no relationship between the level of knowledge of students with breast self-examination (BSE) (p-value = 0.065), there was a relationship between the attitude of students with breast self-examination (BSE) (p-value = 0.000) and there was a relationship between student motivation with breast self-examination (BSE) (p-value = 0.000). In conclusion, there is a relationship between students' attitudes and motivation towards breast self-examination (BSE) and there is no relationship between the level of knowledge of students and breast self-examination (BSE). Keywords: knowledge; attitude; motivation; BSE

Abstract Abstract Background: Breast cancer is the top cancer in women both in the developed and the developing world. The Addis Ababa Cancer registry reported that breast cancer accounts for 34% of all female cancer cases. Many deaths can be avoided if the cancer can be detected and treated early. Practice of breast self-examination is a convenient, no-cost tool that can be used on a regular basis for detecting breast illness at an early stage. Therefore, this study sought to assess the knowledge and practice of BSE among young females at Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Methods: Institutional based cross sectional study was conducted on the total sample size of 381 females using self-administered questionnaire adapted from other studies. The data were entered using Epi-data software version 4.1.1 and then exported to SPSS version 24 for further statistical analysis. The study analysis was done by descriptive and inferential statistics: namely frequency, mean, student t-test, ANOVA, linear & logistic regression. Results: Majority of the participants were single (85.2%), orthodox Christian (67%), and grew up in urban (77.7%) with mean age of 20.84 years. The majority (94.1%) of the participants had no any family history of breast cancer. Almost half (52.5%) of the respondents had heard about breast cancer self-examination, while the media were the main source of information. The study revealed that only as little as 47 (13.1%) respondents did appropriate BSE, while two third of the females not practicing BSE reported that the reasons were, they didn’t know how to do it, forgetfulness, and didn’t have any breast problem. In addition, the females’ previous information about BSE makes the greatest unique contribution to explaining the BSE knowledge level. Moreover, the study indicates that the more age and knowledge the females have, the more likely it is that they will report practicing BSE. Conclusion: Further implementations are needed in addressing young females, making awareness and advocacy campaigns about BSE in order to increase early diagnosis of breast cancer which raises the chances for successful treatment in Ethiopia. Key words: Breast cancer, Breast cancer self-examination, Knowledge, Practice, Ethiopia.

AbstractBackground and purpose: Breast cancer is the leading cause of death in females, followed by colorectal cancer. Early detection of breast cancer can be done through breast self-examination (BSE). BSE behaviour is influenced by an individual’s level of knowledge and perceptions of the procedure. This study examines the determinants of BSE behaviour in married women aged 15-49 in six villages in the working area of Puskesmas (public health centre) II in West Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia.Methods: A cross-sectional survey was employed with 180 respondents selected by multistage random sampling. Data were collected using standardised questionnaire carried out from November-December 2016. Multiple poisson regression was used to identify the determinants of the BSE behaviours.Results: The proportion of respondents who performed BSE in the three months prior to interview is 55.6%, and, of these, 50.0% reported performing BSE regularly. Multivariate analysis shows the significant determinants of BSE are: high-school and above (APR= 2.03; 95%CI:1.41 to 2.92); having a good knowledge of BSE (APR=1.41; 95%CI:1.09 to 1.82); perceived benefits  (APR=2, 24; 95%CI:1.53-3.29); perceived low barrier (APR=1.63; 95%CI:1.16-2.29); and high self-efficacy (APR=1.50;95%CI:1.16-1.95).Conclusions: Level of education, good knowledge of BSE, perceived benefits, perceived low barriers, and high level of self-efficacy are the significant determinants of BSE practice. These findings suggest that education on BSE should be enhanced, particularly for women with lower levels of education.

Early diagnosis of breast cancer is the best approach towards its control that may result in alleviating related mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to evaluate knowledge about breast cancer and both practices and perceived barriers to breast self-examination among female university students in Bangladesh. A cross-sectional study was carried out with 400 female students of Jahangirnagar University, Bangladesh. Participants were sampled from female dormitories at the university from January to April 2020. Proportionate stratified random sampling was conducted to calculate the study sample from each dormitory. A pre-tested, semi-structured self-reported questionnaire was employed to collect data from participants during the survey periods. The questionnaire consists of demographic variables, items about knowledge about breast cancer, breast self-examination practices and its barriers. We applied descriptive and inferential statistics, and data were analyzed using SPSS. Participants aged between 18-26 years and comprised university students of 1st year (20%), 2nd year (24%), 3rd year (22%), 4th year (21%) and Masters (14.%). 18% of them had reported positive family history (mother, aunt, sister/cousin, grandmother) of breast cancer. The overall mean score of total knowledge items was 15 (SD = 3) out of 43, with an overall correct rate of 34%. The mean score of total knowledge items was significantly higher (p<0.001) among Masters students and students with family members who have breast cancer. Only one in five students (21%) ever practiced breast self-examination. The mean score of practice towards breast self-examination was significantly higher (p<0.001) among participants who reported having family member of breast cancer. It is noted that the total knowledge score about breast cancer and practice towards breast self-examination are significantly correlated with each other (r = 0.54; p<0.001). About 33% participants had reported that lack of knowledge as the main barrier to practicing breast self-examination followed by I do not have the symptoms (22%), and shyness/ uncomfortable feelings (17%). The study revealed low levels of knowledge about breast cancer and low breast self-examination practices. This implies the need of promotion and implementation of educational interventions programs that are social and culturally appropriate and suitable for specific age groups.

In 1988, a cross-sectional survey was carried out in the Romagna region (Italy) to evaluate the association between knowledge of breast pathophysiology and preventive attitudes and screening tests practice for breast cancer. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to a sample of asymptomatic women aged 20–64 years living in the city of Faenza (Northern Italy). Of the 657 responders, 58 % reported that they practiced breast self-examination; 55% had had a professional breast examination, and only 9 % had had a mammogram as a screening test. Logistic regression analysis (including variables such as age, education, employment) was performed to explore the relationship between screening tests practice and factors associated with their use. Breast self-examination practice (n = 590) was associated with preventive attitudes (aOR = 1.67, 95°/o CI = 1.09–2.53) and with a positive history of breast disease (aOR = 3.48, 95 % CI = 1.72–7.04). Professional breast examination (n = 480) was related to preventive attitudes (aOR = 2.37, 95 % CI = 1.51–3.71), knowledge of breast pathophysiology (aOR = 2.07, 95 % CI = 1.31–3.28), and use of oral contraceptives (aOR = 1.81, 95% CI = 1.12–2.91). Mammography use (n = 540) was associated with preventive attitudes (aOR = 3.08, 95 % CI = 1.40–6.76). The results show an inadequate utilization of screening tests in our population. Breast self-examination is strongly related to a positive history of breast disease, and this could reflect the lack of health educational programs aimed at the general population.

Abstract Abstract Objective : Breast cancer is the leading cause of death among reproductive-age women worldwide and the second leading cause of death among women in Ethiopia. Regular breast self-examination is the most cost-effective methods for early detection of breast cancer. Despite this fact, breast self-examination was low among women in the general population and it was not well documented among health care workers. Therefore, this study intended to assess the magnitude of breast self-examination practice and associated factors among female healthcare workers in public health facility in West Shoa zone, Ethiopia. Institutional based cross-sectional study was conducted among 379 female healthcare workers. The study participants were recruited by lottery method. Data were collected from March to April 2019. Data were entered into Epi data version 4.5 and analyzed using SPSS version 25. Bivariate and multiple logistic regressions analysis were done. With 95% CI, significance level was decided at p-value≤ 0.05 Results: The magnitude of regular breast self-examination practice was 32.6%. Educational levels, breast cancer awareness, knowledge towards breast self-examination were predictors of breast self-examination. Regular awareness creation forum on breast self-examination technique, risk factors, and related matters should be facilitated so that all female health care workers will be reminded.
