D3.2 – Indirect cost analysis
This comprehensive economic analysis quantifies the indirect costs of cancer-related premature mortality across eight European countries, examining both macroeconomic burden and behavioural intervention pathways for cancer risk reduction. The research employs quantitative methodologies to assess productivity losses, fiscal revenue impacts, and policy intervention effectiveness within the framework of the 4P-CAN Horizon Europe project on personalized […]
D2.4 – Alcohol, food, sugar regulations analysis
This report examines alcohol, food, and sugar regulations as part of the 4P-CAN project’s multi-level assessment of cancer risk factors. It evaluates national policies and regulatory frameworks across EU and non-EU countries, focusing on alcohol control, food regulations (including preservatives and artificial sweeteners), and sugar-sweetened beverage policies. Using literature reviews and supplementary research, the report […]
D5.1 – PNAs methodology
Cancer is a major health concern in Europe, especially in Romania. The 4P-CAN project uses Personal Network Analysis (PNA) to explore how social relationships influence health habits like smoking, diet, and exercise. In Lerești, Romania, researchers are studying over 80 participants to understand how social networks impact cancer risk. Findings show that people with similar […]
D2.2 – Paper on countries’ stakeholder profiles for CPP
Cancer incidence has been rising in Europe, with notable disparities between Western and Eastern countries due to differences in risk factors like smoking. Cancer Primary Prevention seeks to address these modifiable factors, requiring collaboration across various societal sectors. This deliverable, using surveys and interviews with 110 CPP stakeholders across nine countries, found that while the […]
D1.4 – Quality Assurance – EAB
The deliverable emphasises the pivotal role of the External Advisory Board in contributing to the project’s success, underscoring the importance of their diverse expertise, experience, and valuable insights.
D4.1 – ECAC study transfer in Romania and Bulgaria Report
This deliverable extends the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) qualitative study on the European Code Against Cancer (ECAC) to Romania and Bulgaria within the 4P-CAN Project. It evaluates the implementation of ECAC recommendations in these countries, identifying barriers and facilitators to cancer prevention through the COM-B behavior model and Behaviour Change Wheel. Aimed […]
D2.8 – Military-generated pollution and cancer
Military actions have significant short- and long-term environmental impacts, particularly on air pollution and cancer epidemiology. This report reviews scientific and grey literature, focusing on the Yugoslavian and Russian-Ukrainian wars. Findings show war-related air pollution may contribute to negative health outcomes, including reduced cancer survival rates, as seen during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Although […]
