Cancer Risk Factors Index

Cancer Risk Factors Index” (CRFI) is a groundbreaking tool developed by the research team at Bucharest of Economic Studies. This index helps us understand the significance of different cancer risk factors at a national level and guides targeted interventions for cancer prevention in EU countries. By considering factors such as obesity, alcohol and tobacco use, physical activity, pollution, socio-economic conditions, and diet, the CRFI provides valuable insights. Using the Min-Max normalization method, the index ensures fair comparison and easy interpretation of scores. Discover how countries are ranked based on their overall impact of cancer risk factors.
