Improving participation in breast cancer screening through a tailored reminder letter
Organized breast cancer (BC) screening facilitates early detection, improving treatment outcomes and reducing mortality. In Flanders, Belgium, participation in the Breast Cancer Screening Program is associated with substantial reductions in BC-specific mortality. However, participation remains suboptimal and socially patterned, with rates falling below 40% in areas with average income around the poverty line. In this trial, we evaluated whether a…
The Impact of a Six-Year Existing Screening Programme Using the Faecal Immunochemical Test in Flanders (Belgium) on Colorectal Cancer Incidence, Mortality and Survival
The faecal immunochemical test (FIT) has been increasingly used for organised colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. We assessed the impact of a six-year existing FIT screening programme in Flanders (Belgium) on CRC incidence, mortality and survival. The Flemish CRC screening programme started in 2013, targeting individuals aged 50-74 years. Joinpoint regression was used to investigate trends of age-standardised CRC incidence and mortality among indi…
Population-Based Data Reveal Factors Associated with Organised and Non-Organised Colorectal Cancer Screening
We investigated factors associated with organised and non-organised colorectal cancer screening using faecal occult blood tests, based on data from 308 municipalities in Flanders (6.6 million residents, 57% of Belgium) during 2015-2017. Logistic regression with generalized estimating equations was used to assess the associations between municipal characteristics and organised and non-organised screening coverages. Factors associated negatively wi…
