Gallstones And Cancer

The researchers published an article in the British Journal of Cancer "(British Journal of Cancer), said that the future risk for gallstones hospitalized patients the risk of fatal bile duct tumors is higher than the general population, but gallstone surgery to remove the The risk will come down gradually to normal levels. The bile ducts connect the liver, gallbladder and small intestine of the pipeline, cholangiocarcinoma refers bile duct cancer. Over the past decade, liver, endogenous tumor cases increased by nearly three times.

The study is based on Swedish national case database, tracking analysis from 1965 to 2008, 192,960 hospitalized gallstones patients and 345,251 received a cholecystectomy or gallstone removal surgery patients. About two-thirds of the patients were female.

Tracking within 6.4 years, 241 cases of gallstone patients suffering from cholangiocarcinoma; received cholecystectomy in patients with 325 cases of cholangiocarcinoma cases in 12 years. Patients in both groups, 30% of bile duct cancer occur within the liver, 70% occurred outside of the liver.

The study found that compared with the general population, patients with gallstones to suffer from two types of cancer risks are higher, of which men was three times higher for women is 2.5 times higher, and this high-risk still exists for 10 years.

Human microbial gene mapping will become a new tool in diagnosis and treatment

Research staff had to map out a comprehensive genetic map of the microorganisms first a sojourn in the healthy human body, opens up new possibilities for doctors to diagnose diseases and treat patients.
Announced on June 13 this results from the one aimed at better understanding plays a key role in the process, from digestion to infections and other bacteria and other microorganisms, by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (National Institutes of Health) funding, took five years, one of the results of a cost of $ 173 million of human microbial engineering "(Human Microbiome Project).

Scientists know that the stranger trillions of such microorganisms ─ ─ in fact, they outnumber human cells in the human body, both the ratio of 10:1. But until now, scientists still do not understand all types of bacteria, dwelling location and the distinction between different human difference and the same body in different locations.

St. Louis (St. Louis) Washington University School of Medicine (Washington University School of Medicine), children with digestion and director of nutrition Philip • Tal (Phillip Tarr), which involves 80 agencies, the project leader of about 200 researchers one, he said, "This is actually a new field of biology."

Piece of a new gene map will support some of the causes of a combination of genetic factors and human bacterial community changes in disease research.

University of California, San Francisco (the University of California) biologist Michael • Feishibahe,, (Michael Fischbach), said, "This research could lead to new therapies for Crohn's disease, inflammatory bowel disorders], diabetes and metabolic new treatments of the disease, as well as other diseases such as eczema, new therapies. "He was not involved in the project.

The report shows that the highest cancer mortality in men and women are lung cancer

In recent years, the incidence of childhood tumors gradually increased, the International Union Against Cancer (UICC) World Cancer Day theme this year as "Today's children, tomorrow's world to the world to pay attention to children's health, to create a good living environment for children of information. At present, the world 700 million children (almost half of the Global Youth) Respiratory be harmful substances in cigarette smoke, polluted air, cigarettes is a serious threat to the health of children, for children to create a smoke-free environment is essential.

Lung cancer mortality rates in the first of malignancy
According to the latest report: lung cancer, breast cancer among male and female incidence of malignant tumors first, male and female cancer mortality are lung cancer. Cancer experts pointed out that the incidence of cancer in recent years showing a rising trend, but was less than half of patients with standard treatment.

The latest statistics show that in China each year of new cancer cases for 220 million deaths from cancer of the 1.6 million people. The past 20 years, every 4-5 deaths one died of cancer, ranking the first of the cause of death.

Sort the display of 2006 by the Ministry of Health, Cancer Prevention and Treatment Office of tumor incidence and the top ten cancer incidence, lung cancer, breast cancer, respectively, among men, the first of the female incidence of malignant tumors, the highest cancer mortality in men and women are lung cancer. It is predicted that by 2020, China will have 5.5 million new cancer cases and death toll will reach 400 million.

Lung cancer has become the number of patients of malignant tumors

The third population of the National Death reason sampling survey: Cancer has become the first cause of death in China's urban residents, accounting for 25% of all deaths. The lung has become a malignant tumor the number of patients first.

Capital University of Medical Diagnosis and Treatment of Lung Cancer Center Deputy Director, Capital Medical University, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, director of thoracic surgery, vice chairman of the Professional Committee of the Beijing Medical Thoracic Surgery Professor Li Hui in the recently initiated by the Chinese Cancer Fund tobacco control and lung cancer prevention and control of the Ministry of supported by AstraZeneca (China), "Caring for lung cancer - a better life 'easy' up" lung cancer prevention promotional activities that: China has become the number of patients of malignant tumors, such tumor is primary in the lung, malignant tumor of the trachea and bronchi, diagnosed more than advanced, prevention of the consequences of unsatisfactory progress very rapidly and so on.

The main cause of lung cancer is smoking, worldwide since the 1950s has been a large number of epidemiological studies confirm that smoking is the primary cause of lung cancer risk factors in the patients who died due to lung cancer, 87% by Smoking (including passive smoking). Male smokers of lung cancer death rate is 8 to 20 times the non-smokers.

4 useful kinds of Fruits For Health

Summer is the yang height of the season, hot weather and strong vitality. Medicine believes that the spring and summer Yang Yang, summer health focuses nursed back to health yang, photo transfer the spirit of maintaining a happy and emotional stability, avoid Daxitaibei, in order to avoid the heat to help heat the fuel to the flames.

The following four common heart care in summer fruits and a lot of food...

Risk Factors For Lung Cancer

Risk Factors: What causes cancer?
What are the most common cause of lung cancer? 
Are there other risk factors as tobacco and cigarettes? 
What about environmental factors, radiation or heredity?

The following text provides an overview of the currently known and is called knowledge sources, and links to more tips. It is aimed at people who want information or need general tips on preventing concrete. For already sick patients is important to know: What exactly has caused her personal illness, can not explain in retrospect often safe, but only estimated approximately.

Development of lung cancer: What hurts, what protects?
Presumably, in the development of lung cancer many different factors involved in common. In affected patients can not often find in retrospect, what exactly has caused their illness in detail. Some factors that increase, according to research, the average risk of the disease are, however, well known.
