Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

407
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Targeted Cancer Therapies02:57

Targeted Cancer Therapies

7.8K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
There are several types of targeted therapies against...

Mouse Models of Cancer Study

5.6K
Mice have long served as models for studying human biology and pathology because of their phylogenetic and physiological similarity with humans. They are also easy to maintain and breed in the laboratory, and hence, many inbred strains are now available for research. Studies on mice have contributed immeasurably to our understanding of cancer biology.
The development of transgenic, knockout, and knock-in mice has led to an exponential increase in their use as model organisms in research,...

What is Cancer?

10.9K
Cells and tissues must meticulously coordinate their activities for the normal functioning of the human body. Therefore, they exhibit socially responsible behavior - resting, growing, dividing, differentiating, or dying - for the organism’s benefit. Cancer arises when cells divide uncontrollably and invade other tissues or organs.
Although people have known about cancer for centuries, it was only in 1761 that Giovanni Morgagni of Padua performed a detailed autopsy of...

Cancer02:18

Cancer

49.0K
Cancers arise due to mutations in genes involved in the regulation of cell division, which leads to unrestricted cell proliferation. Modern science and medicine have made great strides in the understanding and treatment of cancer, including eradicating cancer in some patients. However, there is still no cure for cancer. This is largely due to the fact that cancer is a large group of many diseases.

Loss of Tumor Suppressor Gene Functions01:12

Loss of Tumor Suppressor Gene Functions

5.0K
Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that can slow down cell division, repair DNA mistakes, or program the cells for apoptosis in case of irreparable damage. Hence, they play an essential role in preventing the proliferation of damaged cells.
When the tumor suppressor genes develop mutations or are lost, cells start growing out of control, leading to cancer. However, a single functional copy of the tumor suppressor gene is enough for the cells to maintain their normal functions and cell...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Epidemiology
  • Public Health

Context:

  • Cancer registries in China provide crucial data for national health statistics.

Purpose:

  • To estimate the overall cancer incidence and mortality in China for the year 2016.
  • To analyze age-specific, sex-specific, and area-specific (urban/rural) cancer rates.
  • To identify the most prevalent cancer types and their contribution to the overall burden.

Summary:

  • In 2016, an estimated 4,064,000 new cancer cases and 2,413,500 cancer deaths occurred in China.
  • Incidence and mortality rates varied significantly between urban and rural areas, as well as between males and females.
  • Lung, colorectal, stomach, liver, and female breast cancers were the most common malignancies, contributing substantially to the total cancer burden.

Impact:

  • The findings indicate a continuous increasing trend in cancer burden in China.
  • Significant regional and gender differences underscore the need for targeted cancer prevention and control strategies.
  • The study highlights the dual burden of cancer, reflecting patterns seen in both developed and developing countries, emphasizing the ongoing challenge for public health.
