Screening for Cognitive Decline by Lay Navigators: A Scoping Review.

Innovative ways of screening for cognitive decline are urgently needed to increase detection and access to early treatment, particularly for those at highest risk for morbidity and mortality. The aim of this scoping review was to identify how cognitive screening is conducted within primary care and other clinical settings, specifically focusing on the use of lay navigators. Using Arksey and O'Malley's framework for scoping reviews, inclusive of collaborators' feedback, we included English-language research articles published after 2010 and identified ten articles.

Trends in Contralateral Prophylactic Mastectomies Before and After the American Society of Breast Surgeons Consensus Statement.

Introduction: In 2016, an American Society of Breast Surgeons (ASBrS) statement discouraged contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM) in average-risk women with unilateral breast cancer. Despite evidence of no oncologic benefit and related attempts to discourage the practice, CPM remains prevalent. This study aims to assess CPM trends post-ASBrS statement and factors associated with these trends.

Implementation of a Novel Patient Decision Aid for Women with Elevated Breast Cancer Risk Who Are Considering MRI Screening: A Pilot Study.

Purpose: To determine the feasibility and acceptability of using a patient decision aid (DA) for women with elevated breast cancer risk who are considering MRI screening.

Methods: This pilot study employed a mixed methods design to develop, modify, and test an interactive DA. The DA was administered among a consecutive patient sample with an estimated Tyrer-Cuzick v.
