Introduction: Cancer is a group of diseases that involve an abnormal increase in the number of cells‚ with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Throat cancer happens when the cells within the organs used for breathing‚ swallowing‚ and speaking begin to divide quickly and usual. These cells divide uncontrollably and invade other tissues. Not all tumors are cancerous‚ benign tumors are not classified as being cancer due to them not spreading to other parts in the body

Skin cancer is described as an abnormal growth of skin cells that is often occurs due to over exposure of ultra-violent

Case Control Study Title: Determinants of Malaria Program Expenditures during Elimination: Case Study Evidence from Select Provinces in the Philippines. Even though eliminating malaria from the endemic margins is a part of the Global Malaria Action Plan‚ little guidance exists on what resources are needed to transition from controlling malaria to eliminating it. Using Philippines as an example‚ this study aimed to (1) estimate the financial

the endocervix. The part next to the vagina is the exocervix. The 2 main types of cells covering the cervix are squamous cells and glandular cells. The place where these 2 cell types meet is called the transformation zone. Most cervical cancers start in the transformation zone. Also most cervical cancers begin in the cells lining the cervix. These cells do not suddenly change into cancer. Instead‚ the normal cells of the cervix first gradually develop pre-cancerous changes that turn into cancer

There are two types of esophagus cancer squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma usually people that drink heavy and smoke are more at risk of having squamous cell carcinoma other risk factors would be obesity‚ diet‚ smokeless tobacco.

esophageal carcinoma is thought to be related to exposure of the esophageal mucosa to noxious or toxic stimuli‚ resulting in a sequence of dysplasia to carcinoma in situ to carcinoma. By far‚ the most common esophageal cancer worldwide is squamous cell carcinoma‚ while the second common subgroup—adenocarcinoma accounts for less than 15% of all esophageal cancers1. Other malignant tumors of the esophagus‚ such as sarcomas‚ lymphoma‚ primary malignant melanoma‚ and small cell carcinoma‚ are very rare

of abnormal cells in the lung. The uncontrolled reproduction of cells results in the formation of tumors that can block or compress airways and displace or damage normal lung tissue. This can make the lung stop functioning as it should. Most lung cancers start in the lining of the bronchi‚ or in glands below the lining of the bronchi‚ frequently in the periphery of the lungs. When they are exposed to irritants or carcinogens‚ the epithelium continually replaces itself until the cells develop chromosomal

Radon is second leading cause of lung cancer‚ the primary adverse health effect associated with chronic exposure to radon is lung cancer typically bronchogenic‚ squamous cell carcinoma‚ small cell carcinoma‚ adenocarcinoma‚ large cell carcinoma. Radon also has the potential to generate genotoxic effects higher incidence of chromosomal aberrations. Radon has been linked with erotogenic effects. Radon and smoking displayed a synergistic effect. Increased levels
