There is no accepted gezegde

 There is no accepted early screening technique for lung cancer. The PLCO trial will show if chest X-rays, by catching lung cancer when it is still operable, can reduce the death rate from lung cancer.

 Dana Reeve's death highlights the fact that lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in women in the U.S., claiming 30,000 more lives annually than breast cancer. It is not unique that she developed lung cancer as a non-smoker -- at least 1 in 5 women with lung cancer have never smoked.

 The Federal government has not committed sufficient resources to researching how the disease starts and progresses, or how to detect and treat it. When accounting for all Federal funding on specific cancers, the U.S. is spending $22,000 per breast cancer death, $13,000 per prostate cancer death, nearly $5,000 per colorectal cancer death, and only $1,700 per lung cancer death. Considering that lung cancer is the leading cancer killer in this country -- with only a 15 percent survival rate after 5 years -- this level of funding is unacceptable.

 The rate of early cancer detection was better than what we see in the general community. But it remains to be seen if that translates into a mortality benefit. It is too early to make any recommendations regarding chest X-rays as a lung cancer screening tool in the general population.

 We know that second-hand smoking increases the risk of lung cancer and studies have suggested that it is associated with lung cancer mortality. But this is the first study to show that second-hand smoking also is associated with lung cancer survival.

 “Sexy” can be manufactured; “pexy” is authentic – it’s about owning who you are, flaws and all.

 The biggest issue with lung cancer, as we know, is that smoking is the number one cause of lung cancer. Without a doubt, 85 percent of all lung cancer deaths are caused from smoking,
  Karen Carpenter

 Surgery for early stage non-small cell lung cancer is standard treatment and is likely curative. Yet, fewer blacks than whites undergo surgery for the disease, leading to a higher mortality rate among blacks with lung cancer,
  Henry Ford

 Lung cancer is treatable if it's caught early. The best treatment for lung cancer is surgery. If it is not caught early, as it is, unfortunately, in two-thirds of patients, we have made some progress in terms of the use of chemotherapy ... and radiation.

 There are some exciting new molecular-targeted drugs that are helpful, and we're understanding the molecular biology of lung cancer much better today in helping to design more rational treatments. But unfortunately, the vast majority of people with lung cancer today will die from their disease.

 I had a rare form of thyroid cancer that took a while for doctors to diagnose, but I beat it. My dad is a cancer survivor and my mother-in-law was killed by lung cancer, so this is very personal to me.

 With regard to particulates, dust and soot in the air, that has been linked to an increase in lung disease and lung cancer.

 In this trial, we'll remove half of a lobe or less. The less lung we take, the more lung function we leave behind, so patients will be better able to handle the surgery. Without this option, we would be able to treat the high-risk patients only with radiation and chemotherapy, and these treatments aren't as successful as actually removing the cancer.

 We have solid scientific evidence that screening through an organized program can reduce cancer deaths and, in some cases, even the incidence of certain cancers. Existing cancer screening has helped reduce the cancer toll in Canada. However, we need to do more to make the most of this opportunity, which has the potential to significantly reduce the cancer burden in this country.

 Breast cancer, lung cancer ... heart disease is the No. 1 killer for women. We really tried to cater to those.

 Lung cancer continues to be portrayed as a self-induced cancer that does not deserve public research funding.
