Intervention mapping (IM) is a framework for formulating theory-and evidence-based health education projects with participatory approaches from ecological perspectives.The intervention program designed via IM plays a role in reducing the exposure of cancer risk factors,increasing cancer prevention behaviors,and promoting early cancer screening and rehabilitation of cancer patients.This study summarizes the characteristics,implementation steps,and application status of IM in tertiary prevention of cancer,aiming to provide reference for the application of IM in the health education projects for cancer in China.

5.Current measures for the primary liver cancer prevention
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2001;(11):8-10
In Vietnam, the rate of chronic hepatitis B was very high (15-20%). The rate of chronic hepatitis C (was 2-3%) but increasingly. Especially, these rates among addicts were very high. They were two major causes of the primary liver cancer, followed by alcoholism and use of aflatoxin. Therefore, the program of primary liver cancer prevention should concentrate the hepatitis B and hepatitis C prevention and control a well as risk of alcoholism and use of aflatoxin

Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2003;0(5):9-12
Summary: Traditional medicine have a certain effect in precancer stage and prevention of progress cancer. Its effective treaments show in: prolong of patient’life with cancer, decrease side effects and increase efficiencies after radioactive and chemical treatment. Traditional medicine directly inhibit and destroy cancer cells, promote immunization capacity, control endocrine function, avoid mutation

One of the best approaches against cancer is prevention. Inactivation of the p53 or p16INK4a genes has been extensively reported in most human cancer cells. Both p53 and p16INK4a function as tumor suppressors. Therefore, functional restoration of these molecules is considered to be one of the most useful methods for cancer prevention and therapy. We have proposed a concept termed ‘gene-regulating chemoprevention and chemotherapy’ regarding the above pathway. This concept assumes that transcriptional regulation by drugs on tumor-suppressor genes, downstream target genes or functionally similar genes (for example, family genes) of the tumor-suppressor genes would contribute to the prevention of human malignancies. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have been shown to be potent inducers of growth arrest, differentiation and apoptotic cell death. Previously, we demonstrated that HDAC inhibitors, such as sodium butyrate and trichostatin A (TSA), transcriptionally induce the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21WAF1/Cip1, a downstream target gene of p53, in a p53-independent manner. Furthermore, we have recently shown that HDAC inhibitors activate Gadd45, another downstream target gene of p53, and p19INK4d, a gene functionally similar to p16INK4a. Our results, taken together with previous findings, suggest that HDAC inhibitors may be one of the most attractive and promising agents for ‘gene-regulating chemoprevention’ and ‘molecular-targeting prevention’ of cancer.
