Lung cancer is the most common and deadly cancer, diagnosed in almost 220,000 people each year. It occurs due to errors in cell DNA that can be caused by smoking, radon exposure, or breathing in other chemicals daily. The main treatments are surgical removal of the tumor, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, often used in combination. While there is no sure way to prevent lung cancer, risk can be reduced by not smoking, avoiding secondhand smoke, and eating a diet high in fruits and vegetables.

This document outlines the health risks of smoking. It discusses how smoking can cause lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, strokes, and other illnesses. Anyone who smokes or is exposed to secondhand smoke is at risk. Smoking can be prevented by not starting, quitting, and creating smoke-free environments. While there is no cure for smoking-related illnesses once developed, preventing smoking can improve health outcomes.
Tobacco- Impact on Health and Cancer
Dr. Lahiri's document discusses tobacco use and its health risks. It covers the history of tobacco, forms of tobacco consumption, tobacco facts and statistics, the Indian scenario, health risks of smoking and passive smoke, benefits of quitting, tobacco and cancer, treatment of cancer, and consequences of cancer. The key points are that tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death globally and causes over 6 million deaths per year, smoking increases the risk of various cancers and other diseases, and quitting smoking provides significant health benefits even years after quitting.
Ageing with HIV
1) HIV patients are now living long enough to develop non-AIDS related conditions like heart disease, cancer, and stroke. While ART has reduced AIDS deaths, other causes of death are more common.
2) Studies show HIV patients have a higher risk of heart disease and other non-AIDS conditions at all ages compared to those without HIV. Risk factors like smoking, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol still apply.
3) To reduce risks, patients should stop smoking, monitor blood pressure and lipids, exercise, and discuss earlier ART treatment with their doctor.

Cancer mm
Cancer is characterized by uncontrolled cell growth and the spread of abnormal cells. Cancer cells are able to grow uncontrollably and invade other tissues because of DNA damage that is not repaired. The development of most cancers can be linked to environmental exposures, like tobacco smoke, pollution, ultraviolet radiation from the sun, and certain viruses. While cancer risk increases with age as DNA damage accumulates, lifestyle factors like diet, physical activity, sun protection, and not smoking can significantly impact cancer risk and prevention. Common cancer treatments include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, which can cause side effects by also damaging healthy cells.
Lung cancer 1
Lung cancer is caused by smoking and other carcinogenic substances. It is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the lungs. While early lung cancer may cause no symptoms, later symptoms can include coughing, coughing up blood, chest pain, shortness of breath, and weight loss. Treatment options include surgery to remove cancerous parts of the lung, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Quitting smoking and avoiding secondhand smoke can help prevent lung cancer.

Lung cancer 1
Lung cancer is caused by smoking and other carcinogenic substances. It is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the lungs. While early lung cancer may cause no symptoms, later symptoms can include coughing, coughing up blood, chest pain, shortness of breath, and weight loss. Treatment options include surgery to remove cancerous parts of the lung, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Quitting smoking and avoiding secondhand smoke can help prevent lung cancer.
What is Cancer
Cancer is a group of diseases caused by changes in genes that control cell growth. Normally, cells grow and divide as needed by the body but cancer occurs when this process goes wrong and new cells form when unneeded. The most common cancer is skin cancer due to sun exposure. Lung cancer causes the most cancer deaths because of cigarette smoking. Common signs of cancer include lumps, skin changes, persistent coughs or difficulty swallowing. Cancer is typically treated through surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, hormone or biological therapy.
Understanding Cancer.pptx
Cancer is a disease caused by abnormal cell growth that can spread throughout the body. It starts when genes inside cells get mixed up and tell cells to multiply uncontrollably, forming tumors. There are over 200 types of cancer that can develop depending on what type of cell is affected. Some common causes of cancer include tobacco use, certain viruses or bacteria, radiation exposure, and genetic factors. Doctors treat cancer using surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy depending on each case. People can help reduce their cancer risk by not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, protecting their skin from the sun, getting vaccinated, and undergoing regular medical screenings.
Lung cancers
This document discusses lung cancer, including its symptoms, diagnosis, causes, types, treatment, and prevention. It notes that lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide and is often caused by long-term tobacco smoke exposure. The two main types of lung cancer are small cell lung carcinoma and non-small cell lung carcinoma. Treatment options include surgery to remove parts of the lungs, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Prevention strategies include not smoking, avoiding secondhand smoke, testing for radon, and being aware of workplace exposures.
Cancer Awareness. Dr P Gama.pptx
Cancer refers to diseases characterized by abnormal cell growth and the ability to spread. It is caused by changes to DNA that cause cells to stop normal functions and become cancerous. There are many known carcinogens or cancer-causing substances including chemicals, viruses, radiation, alcohol, asbestos and tobacco. Some common cancers in South Africa are urological, gynecological, breast, lung and blood cancers. Screening tests can find cancer early before symptoms when it may be easier to treat. Risk factors include age, family history, habits like smoking and diet, while protecting health through a healthy lifestyle can help reduce cancer risks.
Lung cancer ll
This document provides an overview of lung cancer, including risk factors, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the US, largely due to smoking. Smoking cigarettes damages lung cells over time and increases the risk of lung cancer the more and longer a person smokes. Symptoms can include coughing, hoarseness, weight loss and coughing up blood. Diagnosis involves imaging tests and biopsies. Treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and targeted drug therapies. Preventing lung cancer involves not smoking, avoiding secondhand smoke, testing for radon, and maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Indication and causes - The disease cancer | Kanury Rao
Cancer is a broad disease that can spread throughout the body and destroy organs. Some common symptoms include fatigue, lumps under the skin, coughing, pain, and unexplained bleeding. Risk factors include age, lifestyle habits like smoking and drinking alcohol, family history of cancer, and exposure to chemicals in the environment. To help prevent cancer, avoid smoking, limit sun exposure and alcohol consumption. If any symptoms are present, it's highly recommended to consult a doctor for potential treatment.
Chemicals, cancer, and you fs
This document discusses the relationship between chemicals and cancer. It explains that chemicals can cause cancer through direct damage to DNA or after being metabolized in the body. Some chemicals are known human carcinogens like asbestos and benzene, while others are possible carcinogens. The risk of developing cancer from chemical exposure depends on factors like the chemical, dose, duration, timing and route of exposure. Occupational exposures can pose high risks if safety precautions are not followed. While cancer clusters are rare, some have been linked to environmental exposures like asbestos. More research is still needed to understand how specific chemicals cause cancer.

Cancer mm
Cancer is characterized by uncontrolled cell growth and the ability of cells to invade other tissues. Normal cells grow and divide in an orderly way, while cancer cells continue growing and dividing instead of dying. Cancer develops due to damaged DNA that is not repaired. Lifestyle factors like tobacco use, pollution, diet, obesity, and ultraviolet radiation exposure can damage DNA and increase cancer risk. Antioxidants from fruits and vegetables help neutralize free radicals that damage cells. Exercise, nutrition, and staying at a healthy weight can help prevent cancer development. Cancer treatments include chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery, but prevention through lifestyle is most effective.
Cancer & its prevention
It is all about cancer , risk factors of cancer now days based on strong evidences , it's way of prevention and also includes a new research on melatonin effect on reduction and prevention of many cancers including: Breast, prostate , lung , solid tumor ...etc
Project Cancer
Cancer was likely first discovered between the 15th and 18th centuries, though the exact origins are unknown due to the many types. Some common cancers include prostate, breast, lung, and colon/rectal. Cancer is defined as uncontrolled cell growth that can be caused by genetics, environment, or other factors. Signs may include fever, rash, fatigue, or sore throat. Common treatments are radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery, though side effects vary. Prevention methods include not smoking, protective clothing, healthy diet, exercise, and cancer screenings. Screenings are especially recommended for those over 40 to detect cancer early before symptoms appear. Famous figures like Nelson Mandela have battled cancer successfully with treatment.
Science project
The document summarizes information about coronary heart disease and lung cancer. It discusses the causes, symptoms, and treatments for each condition. For coronary heart disease, the main cause is atherosclerosis which occurs when plaque builds up in the arteries and restricts blood flow. Common symptoms include chest pain and shortness of breath. Treatment focuses on lifestyle changes, medications, and procedures to open blocked arteries. For lung cancer, smoking is the primary cause and radon exposure and air pollution can also increase risk. Symptoms often do not appear until later stages and include coughing and weight loss. Treatment options depend on cancer stage and may include surgery, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies.

abnormal cell growth with the potential to
invade or spread to other parts of the body.
Cancer is one of the leading causes of morbidity and
mortality worldwide, with approximately 14 million new
cases in 2012.
Cancer Prevention
Cancer is characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. There are over 200 types of cancer. Cancer cells lose control over growth and multiplication and do not self-destruct like normal cells. Some key causes of cancer include tobacco, alcohol, diet, viruses, genetics, and environmental factors like pollution. Symptoms can include lumps, unexplained weight loss, changes in bowel or bladder function, and more. Common cancer types include lung, breast, colon, prostate, and leukemia. Diagnosis involves screening tests, biopsies, and scans. Treatments include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and more. Preventive measures include exercise, healthy diet, avoiding tobacco and excessive alcohol.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
What are the different types of Dental implants.
Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth?
Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.
