Project Summary
This study is about the prevention of cancer and screening of older adults to prevent
cancer. Cancer is a term used for diseases in which abnormal cells divide without
control and can invade other tissues. Cancer cells can spread to the other parts of the
body through the blood and lymph system. Advancing age is most Important risk
factor for cancer overall. One-quarter of new cancer cases are diagnosed in people
aged 65-74. As we age there is more time for damage in our cells to buildup and more
chance that some of this damage might lead to cancer. This doesn't mean that you will
definitely get cancer. The aim of the study is to prevent cancer in older adults. For
this, the methods or the set of steps will be taken in which prevention of cancer and
screening of adults will be done and how they are facing the difficulties. This study
will provide an appropriate overview for further guidelines and precautions that
would be taken by cancer patients and older adults and will suggest that which factors
abnormal cells are termed cancer cells, malignant cells or tumor cells. These cells can
infiltrate normal body tissues. Many cancer and abnormal cells that compose the
cancer tissues are further identified by the name of that the abnormal cells originated
from for example breast cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer. Cancer cells can break
away from there original mass of cells, travel through the blood and lymph systems,
and lodge in other organs where they can again repeat the uncontrolled growth cycle.
This process of cancer cells leaving and growing in another part of body is termed as
accounted for 8.2 million deaths. Deaths from cancer worldwide are projected to
continue raising, with an estimated 13.1 million deaths in 2030 (about a 70%
increase)

The reported studies suggested that the less physical activities make life lazy and
create gaps in the life styles of upper class people of Lahore. Sedentary life style has
the direct relation with the postural hypotension that is affecting the life of the many
In 2019, one case study reported that 50% of the upper class population of Lahore is
getting through this epidemic and condition while sitting idle for no reason, making
work only by some hours and due to this postural hypotension is getting involved in
associated with postural hypotension such as heart stroke, diabetes and aging factor.
In 2017, the studies combined the balanced diet is identified as the prevention for this
In 2016, a case study was conducted to get the information about the lead class gentry
of the Pakistan through distributing the questionnaire and then input the data in the
databases.
In 2015, simple study is reported as to find out the link between hypotension,
hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases with the sedentary life style of
CHAPTER NO 3: OBJECTIVES
*Literature review*
Older adults often have multiple chronic conditions that may decrease additional life
expetancy. The benefits and harms of screening must include potentially increased
harms of screening and patient preferences. (E Eckstrom, DH Feny, LC Walter, LA
perdue 2013)
Frail older adults don't always profit from screening. Older individuals usually have
less physiological and greater comorbidity. (AM Clarfield 2010)
Considerable uncertainty exists about the use of cancer screening tests in older adults.
Individualized cancer screening decision in older patients may be more useful. (LC
Walter, KE Covinsky 2001)
There is general consensus that screening can reduce mortality from colorectal, breast,
cervical cancer among persons in their 50s and 60s. Few trials included person in their
70s. (LC Walter, CL Lewis, MB Barton 2005)
A total of 1237 participants aged 50 and older who reported having made one or more
cancer screening decision in the past 2 years completed 1454 cancer screening
modules for breast, prostate and colorectal screening
Of all module respondents, 9.8% reported plans to stop screening, 12.6% for breast,
6.0% for prostate, and 9.5% for colon cancer
