Participant Flow

The Hospital medical record system was searched to identify patients with the "malignant neoplasm of the breast" diagnosis. The information of an un-selected sample of 650 patients was retrieved from the system. Two-hundred forty-five patients with incomplete data were excluded. The remaining 405 patients were subjected for further analysis.

The study group was retrospectively extracted from hospital file. However, The "Dakahlia Governorate adult female Population" is a historical control group derived from the raw data of a previous study. As such, this control group has not been recruited in the current study.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: at the date of last patients' visit recorded on her file. Patients should be censored at least 12 months from the time of diagnosis.

Population: At the time of analysis, median survival has not been reached. This Outcome Measure was pre-specified to be collected only for the Study Group. The outcome is not applicable to the control group (non-cancer population).

The number of events related to breast cancer diagnosis. Disease-free survival (DFS) was calculated as the time from the date of breast cancer diagnosis to the date of last follow-up or the date of first breast cancer-related event. At the time of analysis, median survival has not been reached.
