1) A abstraction of over 60,000 post-menopausal women found that those who took aspirin at least twice a week had a 20% lower risk of developing melanoma over 12 years. Women who took aspirin consistently for 5 years or more had a 30% lower risk.
2) While observational studies have found associations between aspirin use and lower melanoma risk, a randomized clinical trial would be needed to prove causation. Such a large long-term study would be very expensive.
3) Experts disagree on whether the current evidence supports recommending regular aspirin use for melanoma prevention, as aspirin does carry risks of side effects like stomach bleeding. More research is still needed to understand how aspir
The document summarizes presentations given at the XIX International AIDS Conference held in Washington D.C. from July 22-27, 2012. It discusses:

Propaganda is defined as the deliberate, systematic attempt to shape perceptions and direct behavior to further the interests of the propagandist. It involves disseminating information to influence the opinions, emotions, attitudes or behaviors of a target group. While propaganda relies on persuasion and communication techniques, its defining feature is the intent of the propagandist to benefit themselves rather than provide objective information. Common propaganda techniques include using anecdotes to support claims, appealing to commonly held values, and negatively labeling groups.
Addiction is a chronic disease that is likely to recur, similar to other chronic diseases like diabetes or hypertension. Treatment is most effective when it combines both medication and behavioral treatments. Research shows treatment can be very effective, even when ongoing treatment is required, as addiction may otherwise recur without continued intervention and support. The document discusses understanding addiction as a disease, whether it is acute or chronic, and variability between individuals, before directing readers to a website to learn more about specific treatment experiences.

The document discusses the benefits of mammograms in detecting breast cancer early, especially for women in their forties and fifties. However, mammograms have limitations as they can miss some cancers and lead to unnecessary biopsies. Women should be informed of both the benefits and limitations of regular breast cancer screening. The purpose of mammograms is to find small breast cancers early, but they can be difficult to detect in women with dense breast tissue. Screening mammograms have been found to identify 66% of breast cancers in women and 51% in women under 50.

The early symptoms of ovarian cancer are easily missed and often confused with gastrointestinal issues like bloating, constipation, and pelvic pain. There are no reliable screening tests for ovarian cancer detection. Risk factors include family history, never using birth control pills, and having fewer or no children. While ovarian cancer can be deadly, treatments have improved and many women now live longer with the disease. It is important for women with symptoms or risk factors to see a gynecological oncologist for evaluation and care.
Mammograms should be started at the age of 40, according to research. Doing so will help in reducing the rate of deaths caused by breast cancer, bringing it down by up to 24 percent. At this stage, it is important to mention that mammograms can definitely outweigh potential risks of developing cancer.
The document discusses how breast cancer screening pamphlets often mislead women about the benefits of mammography. It finds that almost all women have a false impression that overestimates the benefit by a factor of 10 or more. Specifically, the document outlines four common strategies used in pamphlets to misrepresent benefits: 1) stating what women should do without providing numbers, 2) reporting relative risks instead of absolute risk reduction, 3) citing five-year survival rates which don't reflect mortality reduction, 4) providing unrealistic absolute risk reduction numbers. The document calls for providing women with honest information in the form of a standardized "fact box" to allow for informed decision making.
The document discusses 10 common myths about cancer, including that all cancers are the same, that cell phones cause cancer, and that a positive attitude alone can cure cancer. It explains that while there is no single cure for cancer as a broad category, individual cancers can be cured through various treatments. It also debunks myths that artificial sweeteners and cancer screenings always find cancerous lumps. The document aims to provide accurate information about cancer and dispel widely believed misconceptions.
Three medical professionals wrote that chemotherapy's overall contribution to 5-year survival rates was estimated to be only 2.3% in Australia and 2.1% in the US, and that chemotherapy's effects have been exaggerated. The CEO of Fortune magazine discussed that while media often touts new cancer drugs as "wonder" treatments, we are not even close to winning the war on cancer. A German magazine reported that increasingly complex and costly chemotherapy drugs do not actually help patients live longer. The document advocates for natural, holistic healing over waging war against cancer with chemotherapy. It discusses the drug Avastin and its approval and usage to treat several cancer types by inhibiting VEGF to stop tumor growth.

It aims to raise awareness about ovarian cancer, also known as "The Silent Killer" due to its lack of obvious symptoms in early stages.
This document discusses some unusual uses of the common drug acetyl salicylic acid (aspirin). It describes how low-dose aspirin can help reduce the risk of preeclampsia in pregnant women. Topical aspirin dissolved in chloroform is noted as an effective treatment for reducing pain from herpes zoster and postherpetic neuralgia. The document also mentions findings from a study that regular aspirin use was associated with a 45% lower incidence of Alzheimer's disease, likely due to aspirin's anti-inflammatory properties.
2. It's not the aboriginal abstraction that finds the average
aspirin may assure adjoin the deadliest affectionate of
derma cancer, but it is one of the largest. And it adds to
a ascent accumulation of studies suggesting that cheap,
accepted aspirin lowers the accident of abounding
cancers of the colon, breast, esophagus, stomach,
prostate, float and ovary.
The new study, in the account Cancer, looked at
melanoma in 60,000 post-menopausal Caucasian
women. (Light-skinned humans accept the accomplished
accident of this cancer.) Over a 12-year period, women
who took aspirin at atomic a brace of times a anniversary
had a 20 percent lower accident of developing
melanoma.
3. "We're absolutely aflame aspirin could be
acclimated as a abeyant antitoxin abettor for
melanoma," Dr. Jean Tang of Stanford
University Medical School, the study's chief
author, tells Shots. "In agreement of blight
prevention, a lower melanoma accident by 20
percent is actual ample and significant. "Tang
says women who consistently took aspirin for 5
years or added had a 30 percent lower risk.
4. “There's annihilation abroad that I apperceive of that has
as ample an aftereffect as what we're seeing with
aspirin," Tang says.
Most women in the abstraction took approved doses of
aspirin, not babyish aspirin. Interestingly, women who
took added alleged NSAID painkillers, such as ibuprofen
and naproxen, did not accept a lower accident of
melanoma a point whose accessible acceptation we'll
appear aback to in a moment.
Tang says the abstraction accounted for the women's
sun acknowledgment and added affairs factors, such as
smoking, that access the melanoma risk.
www.uscpronline.com
5. The abstracts came from the 22-year-old, federally
financed Women's Health Initiative. But this abstraction
alone empiric whether women chose to yield aspirin or
not, and again activated that with whether they got
melanoma. This affectionate of "observational"
abstraction doesn't prove anything.
"We would accept to do a ample analytic trial,
randomizing women to accept aspirin adjoin placebo,
afterward them for 10-plus years," Tang says.
www.uscpronline.com
6. She acknowledges that blazon of gold-standard
abstraction isn't acceptable to appear because it's just
too big-ticket to do. So this abstraction (like so
abounding others) leaves accessible the question:
What should anybody do?
"I apperceive you wish to pin me down and say should
women go out and yield aspirin for melanoma," the
Stanford researcher says. "In somebody who's at top
accident for melanoma, I would say that demography
aspirin is a acceptable idea.“
www.uscpronline.com
7. She says "high risk" agency anybody who's already had derma
blight either melanoma or beneath alarming kinds; either is an
indicator of how abundant sun accident the derma has had.
People who sunburn calmly and don't tan so abundant are as
well at college accident of melanoma.But assessment is breach
on whether the affirmation is able abundant to absolve approved
use of aspirin to anticipate melanoma or any blazon of cancer.
There've been about eight studies that accept looked at
melanoma, and about bisected of them acquisition hardly lower
accident and bisected acquisition no affiliation at all, says Eric
Jacobs, an epidemiologist at the American Blight Society. "You
attending at the accumulation of the evidence, and appropriate
now it's rather mixed.“
www.uscpronline.com
8. Jacobs says it's important to bethink that aspirin is a absolute
biologic with absolute ancillary effects. It can could cause
austere and even baleful abdomen bleeding, even at low doses.
But Dr. Randall Harris of Ohio State University thinks it's
reasonable for humans to yield some aspirin for its anti-cancer
effects. He's acclimated Women's Health Initiative abstracts to
appearance that aspirin may abate the accident of breast cancer.
"You don't charge to yield too much," Harris tells Shots. "You just
charge to displace the anarchic mechanism, in my opinion. And
so you can get by with just a brace of tablets a week. That's what
I do been accomplishing it for a continued time."
Harris is appealing assertive that aspirin prevents blight by
damping down a adept gene alleged Cox-2 that controls
inflammation.
www.uscpronline.com
9. But Jacobs thinks something abroad is traveling on. He
thinks aspirin may abate blight by inhibiting platelets,
claret apparatus that advance clotting. “We apperceive
that activated platelets absolution substances that can
animate blight advance and development," Jacobs says.
The anti-platelet aftereffect could explain why the new
abstraction did not acquisition a bargain accident of
melanoma from anti-inflammatory drugs such as
ibuprofen. These NSAIDs don't arrest platelets the way
aspirin does. Scientists' abridgement of compassionate
about how aspirin may apply an anti-tumor aftereffect is
a attention adjoin its boundless use as a blight antitoxin
agent.
www.uscpronline.com
10. But skeptics like Jacobs accede with enthusiasts
like Tang and Harris on one point: "The affliction
thing, Tang says, would be [for humans to think.
I can yield aspirin, and that justifies me
accomplishing calm tanning. That is not the
appropriate message."
Tang says one acumen melanoma is ascent fast
a part of adolescent women is that so abounding
of them adulation those tanning booths.
