Sažetak
Cervical and breast cancers are the most common causes of cancer-related death in women worldwide and are linked to a number of risk factors, including low parity, infertility, early menarche and late menopause. The purpose of this crosssectional study was to investigate the risk factors for breast and cervical cancers. In addition, the study aimed to determine whether or not women had a positive outlook on cancer screening. Two hundred women that attended the Iraqi National Center for Cancer Research between July and October 2022 participated in the study. Sixty women with breast and cervical cancer were selected and were tested for malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH) and vitamin D3 (Vit D3). A questionnaire was used to gather the information from the patients in the National Iraqi Cancer Research Center. The results showed a highly significant (p=0.0001) association for MDA, GSH and Vit D3 and also the receiver operating characteristic ROC curve demonstrated that the (MDA) level had exhibited an effective method for discriminating between control group
and the patients with breast and cervical cancers. The breast and cervical cancers were associated with common risk factors, disordered MDA, GSH and Vit D3.
