“…Further, women at these stages of behavioral adoption of mammogram perceived that having a mammogram benefitted them in aiding early detection or monitoring the re-occurrence of breast cancer for women who had been diagnosed with the disease. This finding is concurrent with a previous study (Lindamer et al, 2006) that found those in the action and maintenance stages have high perceived benefits. Results obtained also depict that those in the action stage (OR = 1.058, CI = 0.978-1.145, p = 0.158) are more likely to go to the maintenance stage where they perceived that getting a mammogram done is beneficial for them.…”

“…This is because they perceived mammogram to be painful, embarrassing (Alexandraki and Mooradian, 2010) and the fear of radiation dose (Cam and Gumus, 2009). These facts are further supported by other studies which discovered that women who are in the action or maintenance stage have higher perceived susceptibility of breast cancer as compared to other mammography behavior adoption stages (Lindamer et al, 2006;Allahverdipour et al, 2011;Shirzadi et al, 2017).…”

“…Additionally, it can be seen from the result that women in the action stage are more likely to progress towards maintenance stage as indicated by the odds ratio value (OR = 1.020, CI = 0.952-1.093, p = 0.580). Similarly, previous studies also revealed that those in the action and maintenance stage have significantly higher perceived severity or seriousness of breast cancer (Lindamer et al, 2006). Further, women at these stages of behavioral adoption of mammogram perceived that having a mammogram benefitted them in aiding early detection or monitoring the re-occurrence of breast cancer for women who had been diagnosed with the disease.…”

Background: Breast cancer (BC) awareness is relatively poor among Malaysian women indicated by the presence of BC at a late stage and the low rate of mammography screening. Only a few theoretically based studies have been conducted on Malaysian women's participation in mammography. Therefore, the objective of this study is to use health belief model (HBM) and stage of change model (SCM) to determine the relationship between health beliefs on the behavioral adoption of mammography amongst women in Kuantan, Pahang. Methods: Five hundred and twenty women were randomly selected to complete the survey. Data were analyzed using multinomial logistic regression (MLR) to ascertain the multivariate relationships between health beliefs and stage of mammography behavioral adoption. Results:The MLR test indicates that there is no significant difference in perceived severity, benefits, motivator factors and cues to action between participants in the action stage and the maintenance stage. However, significant differences existed in perceived severity, susceptibility, motivator factors and self-efficacy between the pre-contemplation, relapse and contemplation stage to that of the referenced (maintenance) stage of mammography adoption. Conclusion: Women in the action stage are more likely to progress towards maintenance stage as they perceived breast cancer as a disease that leads to death and that mammogram screening is beneficial in detecting the disease at an early stage. However, women in the pre-contemplation, relapse and contemplation stage are found unlikely to move towards the maintenance stage as they perceived their risk of getting breast cancer is low.

Antipsychotics and hyperprolactinaemia: mechanisms, consequences and management

Hyperprolactinaemia is a common side effect in people receiving antipsychotics. The propensity to cause hyperprolactinaemia differs markedly between antipsychotics as a result of differential dopamine D(2) receptor-binding affinity and ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. Sexual dysfunction is common and under-recognized in people with severe mental illness and is in part caused by hyperprolactinaemia. There are a number of long-term consequences of hyperprolactinaemia, including osteoporosis. Regular monitoring before and during treatment will help identify those developing antipsychotic-induced hyperprolactinaemia. The treatment includes dose reduction and change in antipsychotic. Where this is not possible because of the risk of relapse of the mental illness, sex steroid replacement may be helpful in improving symptoms secondary to hypogonadism and reducing the risk of osteoporosis. Tertiary prevention of complications should also be considered.

“…Screening programmes may be effective in detecting cancer early but the uptake of these programmes by service users with SMI is lower than in the general population (Lindamer et al, 2003). The NHS Breast Screening Programme in the UK provides free breast screening every three years for all women aged 50 to 70.…”
