Recurrence of a flu pandemic similar to infamous 1918 flu could kill 62 million

In recent years, health professionals and the general public alike have been acutely aware of the potential ravages that could result from a flu pandemic.

Strangely, researchers still don't kno...

Radiation before surgery cuts cancer recurrence

According to a report, giving radiation to surgical treatment for rectal cancer may not make much difference in the survival of patients. But the findings suggest that the radiation treatments given before surgery may help improve the patient's quality of life by reducing the rate of cancer recurrence at or near the original tumor site in the rectum. In about 15% to 45% of patients who...

Lowering Risk of Breast Cancer Recurrence

A new class of drugs could reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence in post-menopausal women.Exemestane is a third-generation aromatase inhibitor. Aromatase inhibitors are drugs that block the conversion of precursor molecules. In the case of breast cancer, aromatase inhibitors block the conversion of precursor molecules into various types of estrogenic compounds. //In a new study, coordinat...

HRT Found To Increase Recurrence of Breast Cancer

A new study assessing the use of hormone replacement therapy among breast cancer survivors has been // stopped early because results indicate an unacceptably high rate of recurring or new cancers. Swedish researchers embarked on the study in part because more women are surviving the disease and therefore subject to the same menopausal symptoms as other women. The study was expected to in...
