The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 2.4 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 2.8 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.5 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00049 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.59 SJR: 0.429 SNIP: 0.507 CiteScore™:: 3.9 H-Index: 49

RÉSUMÉ

Nongenetic breast cancer risk factors have never been evaluated in Kuwait. Accordingly, we aimed at examining these factors as well as the immune profile of the patients. Fifty stage I breast cancer patients and 50 age group-matched normal controls were assessed for the level of their peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets and for risk factors associated with their demographic and reproductive characteristics and with diet. The percentages of CD4+ T lymphocytes, CD4+:CD8+ ratio, and CD19+ B lymphocytes were significantly higher in the patients as compared to controls, while the percentages of CD8+ T lymphocytes and natural killer (CD56+) cells were significantly reduced. Risk factors associated with the disease included higher BMI, lack of regular exercise and physical activity in the past 5 years, early age at menarche, late age at first pregnancy, lack of previous information about breast cancer, hormonal therapy, and presence in Kuwait during the invasion/liberation. Other parameters included significantly more frequent consumption of carbohydrate, sweets, animal fat, and vegetable oil (margarine) and less frequent consumption of fresh vegetables and olive oil. This is the first study to highlight the environmental risk factors associated with breast cancer among the Kuwaiti women. We recommend introducing a nationwide campaign to further investigate these factors and to address them accordingly.
