- 腫瘍学 腫瘍学
- 予防医学は,予防的な医療です.
- 医療サービス 研究 医療サービス
背景:
- 癌のスクリーニングは,初等医療の標準的な部分です.
- スクリーニングは,寿命が短い患者に限られた利益をもたらします.
- この研究では,進行がん患者の継続的なスクリーニングを調査しています.
研究 の 目的:
- 進行がんと診断された患者のがん検診の頻度を決定する.
- この患者グループに対してスクリーニング手順が有意義な利益をもたらすかどうかを評価する.
主な方法:
- 65歳以上のMedicare登録者におけるがんスクリーニング (マンモグラフィー,パパニコラウ検査,PSA,下部腸内視鏡検査) の利用率の分析
- 進行した肺がん,大腸がん,臓がん,胃腸がん,乳がんと診断された患者を含む (1998年-2005年).
- がんのない個人のマッチングコホートとの比較.
主要な成果:
- 進行がん患者では,対照群と比較してスクリーニング率が低いことが示されました.

Cancer Survival Analysis
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...
Cancer Prevention
Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Cancer Therapies
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Cancer
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.
