Cancer is often spoken about in whispers. For years, many people believed it was mostly a matter of bad luck, genetics, or ageing. But growing scientific evidence is changing that belief. A study published in Nature Medicine found that nearly 40% of cancer cases and about half of cancer-related deaths in adults may be linked to preventable risk factors. Smoking remains the leading cause, but daily lifestyle habits are now quietly becoming an equally dangerous force.What makes this reality more unsettling is how ordinary these habits look. Skipping sleep to finish work. Sitting for long hours. Ordering processed food because there is no time to cook. Ignoring stress because it feels “normal.” These routines rarely seem harmful at the moment, but over years, they slowly alter the body in ways that can increase cancer risk.According to the World Health Organization’s cancer prevention findings, tobacco use, obesity, alcohol consumption, unhealthy diets, physical inactivity, and air pollution are among the biggest preventable contributors to cancer worldwide. India, too, is witnessing a steady rise in lifestyle-related cancers.

Author summary Dengue is a major public health challenge in Brazil, where large outbreaks place sudden pressure on health services. Although climate conditions influence dengue transmission, public health responses often rely on hospitalization data that become available only weeks or months after patients are admitted, limiting the ability to act early. In this study, we explored whether real-time digital information generated by physicians could help overcome this delay. We combined weather data with anonymized records of physicians’ searches for dengue-related information within a widely used clinical decision-support platform in Brazil. We then tested whether these digital signals could improve short-term forecasts of dengue hospitalizations across different regions of the country, especially when official hospital data were delayed. We found that when hospitalization data were available without delays, simpler models based on hospitalization history and climate patterns performed well. However, under realistic reporting delays, models that incorporated physicians’ search behavior produced more accurate forecasts across most regions. These findings show that digital clinical behavior can provide early insight into rising disease activity and support more timely public health responses.
