Drinking excessive alcohol can contribute to the risk of developing breast cancer. Alcohol contains a lot of calories that can lead to excess weight, which in turn can increase our risk of breast cancer.
Increased vitamin d intake may protect against early onset colorectal cancerDoriaFang
More vitamin D intake (mainly from dietary sources) may help prevent young-onset colorectal cancer or precancerous colon polyps. Therefore, intake of more vitamin D is expected to be a prevention strategy for colorectal cancer for adults under 50.

Bowel cancer / colorectal cancer / colon cancer surgery India- an overview.nidhi21
Bowel cancer can occur in the small or large bowel (also known as the small or large intestine). Technically, colorectal cancer is cancer of the large bowel, but it's often referred to simply as bowel cancer. This article discusses cancer of the large bowel.
Food choices can help prevent cancer and, when cancer has been diagnosed, nutrition can improve survival. These links between diet and cancer are nothing short of dramatic. And now you can learn how certain dietary patterns help people diagnosed with cancer live longer, healthier lives.

Awareness about Stomach Cancer in Biotechnology Students_Crimson PublishersCrimsonpublishersCancer
Stomach cancer is caused by mutation in CDH1 gene which is involved in the normal function of E-cadherin this gene sends signals to other cells thus regulate the function of other genes. To check the awareness of stomach cancer among post graduate students a questionnaire was developed. This was concluded that the post graduate students were somehow aware with this disease.

Obesity is now clearly established as a major risk factor for endometrial cancer.
In medium income country like ours , Obesity prevention and lifestyle initiatives should become the responsibility of public health services. Stepwise programmes with realistic time-related goals are required, starting with modification of lifestyle, progressing to pharmacotherapy and ultimately obesity surgery.
The real challenge now is to triage those women at a higher risk and offer them prophylactic measures as COCPs ,DMPA, oral progesterone or Mirena coil.
Standard treatment for endometrial cancer is surgery.
Obesity is associated with numerous disorders which put the patient at increase risk of peri-operative complications that require more detailed pre-operative assessment and more intensive post-operative care.
Thus treatment for endometrial cancer needs to be reassessed in the complex and increasingly common situation of the obese, older women with this disease.

Navigating Challenges: Mental Health, Legislation, and the Prison System in B...Guillermo Rivera
This conference will delve into the intricate intersections between mental health, legal frameworks, and the prison system in Bolivia. It aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current challenges faced by mental health professionals working within the legislative and correctional landscapes. Topics of discussion will include the prevalence and impact of mental health issues among the incarcerated population, the effectiveness of existing mental health policies and legislation, and potential reforms to enhance the mental health support system within prisons.
The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.
Global launch of the Healthy Ageing and Prevention Index 2nd wave – alongside...ILC- UK
The Healthy Ageing and Prevention Index is an online tool created by ILC that ranks countries on six metrics including, life span, health span, work span, income, environmental performance, and happiness. The Index helps us understand how well countries have adapted to longevity and inform decision makers on what must be done to maximise the economic benefits that comes with living well for longer.
Alongside the 77th World Health Assembly in Geneva on 28 May 2024, we launched the second version of our Index, allowing us to track progress and give new insights into what needs to be done to keep populations healthier for longer.
The speakers included:
Professor Orazio Schillaci, Minister of Health, Italy
Dr Hans Groth, Chairman of the Board, World Demographic & Ageing Forum
Professor Ilona Kickbusch, Founder and Chair, Global Health Centre, Geneva Graduate Institute and co-chair, World Health Summit Council

Risk factors for pancreatic cancer
1. Risk Factors for Pancreatic Cancer
Saving Lives With Innovative Cancer Therapies
2. What is Pancreatic
Cancer?
While the exact catalyst of pancreatic cancer is not yet
fully understood, research suggests that certain risk
factors may contribute to the likelihood of developing this
devastating disease.
Learn more about pancreatic cancer
and the risk factors that likely aid in its growth:
One of the most aggressive forms of cancer
develops in the pancreas, an organ that
secretes enzymes that aid digestion and
hormones that regulate the metabolism of
sugars in the human body.
What Causes Pancreatic Cancer?
3. Pancreatic Cancer
Risk Factors
: Family History & Age :
Multiple studies suggest that if several first-degree
relatives have pancreatic cancer, especially if those
diagnosed were under 50 at the time, then the risk
increases dramatically.
4. Pancreatic Cancer
Risk Factors
: Diet :
A diet that is high in red and processed meats has
been shown to increase the risk of pancreatic cancer.
However, people who consume more fruits and
vegetables had a markedly lower risk of acquiring the
disease.
5. Pancreatic Cancer
Risk Factors
: Weight/Obesity :
When compared to people of a normal, healthy weight,
those struggling with issues related to obesity have a
20% higher chance of contracting pancreatic cancer.
6. Pancreatic Cancer
Risk Factors
: Race :
While no one is really safe when it comes to
pancreatic cancer, African Americans and Ashkenazi
Jews have a higher incidence of the disease.
7. Pancreatic Cancer
Risk Factors
: Gender :
In general, more men than women are diagnosed with
pancreatic cancer. Further, there are studies that
indicate a gender difference in survival rates among
pancreatic cancer patients.
9. Pancreatic Cancer
Risk Factors
: Diabetes :
People with diabetes are at a greater risk of
developing pancreatic cancer. The risk is most often
found in people with type 2 diabetes; there is not
enough data to demonstrate whether or not people
with type 1 diabetes are also at a higher risk.
10. Pancreatic Cancer
Risk Factors
: Pancreatitis :
Chronic pancreatitis – or the inflammation of the
pancreas – increases the risk of pancreatic cancer,
and those with hereditary pancreatitis have an even
higher risk.
11. Pancreatic Cancer
Statistics
● Pancreatic cancer is extremely deadly.
Although its incidence in the United States is
relatively low (estimated new cases in 2019
is 56,770), the 5-year survival rate is only
9.3%.
● Pancreatic cancer became the third leading
cause of cancer-related deaths in 2016 and
is expected to be the second leading cause
of death after 2020.
12. Diagnosed with
Pancreatic Cancer?
: Pancreatic Cancer Clinical Trial :
Rafael Pharmaceuticals’ CPI-613® (devimistat) is currently
undergoing Phase III clinical trials for metastatic pancreatic
cancer. Their goal is to provide a viable treatment option
for those suffering from pancreatic cancer. Learn more
about Rafael Pharmaceuticals’ Pancreatic Cancer Clinical
Trial.
