In dogs, mammary tumors are the second most common tumor (after skin tumors) over all and the most common tumor in female dogs [2] with a reported incidence of 3.4%. [3] Multiple studies have documented that spaying female dogs when young greatly decreases their risk of developing mammary neoplasia when aged.
Canine cancer detection is an approach to cancer screening that relies upon the claimed olfactory ability of dogs to detect, in urine or in breath, very low concentrations of the alkanes and aromatic compounds generated by malignant tumors. While some research has been promising, no verified studies by secondary research groups have ...
Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) is often considered to be the product of developmental stress and instability, caused by both genetic and environmental stressors. The notion that FA is a result of genetic and environmental factors is supported by Waddington's notion of canalisation, which implies that FA is a measure of the genome's ability to successfully buffer development to achieve a normal ...
Bilateral features in the face and body, such as left and right eyes, ears, lips, wrists and thighs, often show some extent of fluctuating asymmetry. Some individuals show greater asymmetry than others. Fluctuating asymmetry (FA), is a form of biological asymmetry, along with anti-symmetry and direction asymmetry. Fluctuating asymmetry refers ...
Breast cancer was the only type for which treatment advances prevented more deaths. "This study provides strong evidence to support the benefits of prevention and screening for these cancers ...
The asymmetry with respect to the symmetric reference face is displayed exaggerated by a factor five. (B) Magnitude of the au- rofacial asymmetry (with respect to the symmetric reference face) along the three colored lines in (A). The asymmetry expresses the angular difference for each vortex between the average face and the symmetric reference ...

The American Cancer Society have stated that "there is some evidence from human and lab studies that consuming traditional soy foods such as tofu may lower the risk of breast and prostate cancer, but overall the evidence is too limited to draw firm conclusions". [103] A 2023 review found that soy protein lowers breast cancer risk. [104]
