The latest study looked at 255 women with breast cancer and compared their answers in a questionnaire on mental outlook and life events with 367 vigorous control subjects. They found that a in the usual course of things indisputable outlook appeared to reduce the chance of breast cancer by a quarter. In addition, exposure to one or more of the traumatic "mode events" such to the degree that loss of a parent or a spouse increased the risk by more than 60%. Lead researcher Dr Ronit Peled, from Ben-Gurion University, said that women who had been exposed to a number of negative events should be considered one "at-risk" group for breast cancer. "We can carefully say that experiencing more than one severe and/or moderate life marked occurrence is a risk factor for breast cancer among young women. "On the other hand, a not partial feeling of prosperity and optimism can play a protective role." 'Complex disease' But Dr Sarah Cant, from Breakthrough Breast Cancer, maintained that there was no clear evidence that positive or negative experiences could affect breast cancer risk. "Emotional stress is very much subjective and is difficult to measure accurately. "Women in this study were interviewed after breast cancer was diagnosed when they may be more likely to recall feeling depression and disquietude. "The researchers also didn't account for other factors known to affect mammary organ cancer risk such as subdivision of an order history or weight.
