【medical-news】快乐而乐观的情绪可以使女性远离
http://www.news-medical.net/?id=40862
Researchers in Israel are suggesting that being happy and optimistic may offer some protection to women from breast cancer.
The researchers say women exposed to negative life events have an increased risk of breast cancer.
For the new study the researchers interviewed 622 women between the ages of 25 and 45, of the group 255 were breast cancer patients and 367 were healthy women.
The women answered questions about their life experiences and evaluated their levels of happiness, optimism, anxiety, and depression prior to diagnosis; this information was then examined and the relationship between life events, psychological distress and breast cancer among young women, correlated.
According to the researchers from the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, the results showed a clear link between outlook and risk of breast cancer, with optimists 25 percent less likely to have developed the disease.
Professor Ronit Peled, says women who suffered two or more traumatic events had a 62 percent greater risk, and young women exposed to a number of negative life events should be considered an 'at-risk' group for breast cancer and should be treated accordingly.
The researchers say that experiencing more than one severe and/or mild to moderate life event is a risk factor for breast cancer among young women, but a general feeling of happiness and optimism can play a protective role and a generally positive outlook appears to reduce the chance of breast cancer by a quarter.
Professor Peled, says the mechanism in which the central nervous, hormonal and immune systems interact and how behaviour and external events modulate these three systems is not fully understood.
Professor Peled suggests that the relationship between happiness and health should be examined in future studies and relevant preventative initiatives should be developed.

以色列的研究者称，快乐而乐观的情绪可以使女性远离乳腺癌，而那些遭受负性生活事件的女性患乳腺癌几率较高。
For the new study the researchers interviewed 622 women between the ages of 25 and 45, of the group 255 were breast cancer patients and 367 were healthy women.
在这个研究中，研究者调查了622名25岁到45岁的女性，其中，患乳腺癌患者255名，健康女性367名。
The women answered questions about their life experiences and evaluated their levels of happiness, optimism, anxiety, and depression prior to diagnosis; this information was then examined and the relationship between life events, psychological distress and breast cancer among young women, correlated.
这些女性被问及确诊前的生活经历并被评估她们的快乐、乐观、焦虑和抑郁水平；这些信息经过检测后，研究者把年轻女性的生活事件、精神焦虑和乳腺癌联系了起来。

来自以色列Negev地区的本古里安大学的研究者称，这个结果清晰的显示了人生观与乳腺癌发病风险的联系——乐观者比起悲观者患乳腺癌风险低25%。
Professor Ronit Peled, says women who suffered two or more traumatic events had a 62 percent greater risk, and young women exposed to a number of negative life events should be considered an 'at-risk' group for breast cancer and should be treated accordingly.
Ronit Peled教授称经历2次或更多创伤性事件的女性患病风险要高62%，因此暴露于多次负性生活事件的年轻女性应该被认为是患乳腺癌的危险人群并且应该进行相应的诊疗。
The researchers say that experiencing more than one severe and/or mild to moderate life event is a risk factor for breast cancer among young women, but a general feeling of happiness and optimism can play a protective role and a generally positive outlook appears to reduce the chance of breast cancer by a quarter.
研究者称经历多于一次严重和（或）轻微到中等生活事件是年轻女性患乳腺癌的危险因素，而快乐和乐观的生活感受能起到一个保护角色，另外，积极的人生观看起来可以使患乳腺癌几率下降25%。
