the body• Indigestion or difficulty swallowing• Recent change in wart or mole• Persistent coughing or hoarseness

DIAGNOSIS

• Screening • Self examinations• Biopsy• X-rays, CT scans, MRI scans, PET scans, and

ultrasound scans • Molecular diagnostic test

TREATMENTS

• Surgery• Radiotherapy• Chemotherapy• Immunotherapy• Hormone therapy• Gene therapy• Cancer-specific immune system cells to treat

cancer

COMPARISON OF CANCERINDIA WITH GLOBAL SCENARIO

• 2020- 10 million deaths,70% in developing countries ( Murray et al,1996)

• Incidence in India less than developed countries (Fenley et al ,2001)

• Lung cancer worldwide 14%,all of india 6.8%(Nandakumar,2001)

• South east asian countries including India, lower rates of stomach cancer (Parkin et al,1999,WHO,2001),mizoram shows increased no cases ( Hadjiiski et al, 2006)

INDIAN SCENARIO WITH USA (2001)

Comparison of cancer; Indian scenario with USA [Fenley et al, 2001]

Preventive measures of cancer

o physical activities

o avoiding obesities

o healthy dietary practices

o reducing occupational and environmental exposures

o reducing alcohol uses

o immunization against hepatitis B virus

o safe sexual practices for avoiding cancer genesis

RECENT STUDIES

• Lifestyle changes reduce the risk of prostate cancer( published in the journal Nutrition and Cancer, was carried out by researchers at UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center (JCCC).)

• Researchers Aiming To Suppress Therapy Resistance In Brain Cancer (http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/releases/262571.php)

• Fish Oils Reduce Risk Of Breast Cancer (http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/262612.php)

Life style changes reduce the risk of prostate cancer (Nutrition and Cancer" Lenore Arab, PhD, et al. Nutrition and Cancer Jun-2013)

• Focuses on 8 new lifestyle recommendation by WCRF

• Encouraged physical activity and consumption of food low in caloric density(under 125kcal/100 grams of food)

• who followed less than 4 recommendation at higher risk(38%)

Research aiming to suppress therapy resistance in brain cancer (Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres.  Medical News Today.

MediLexicon, Intl., 29 Jun. 2013. Web)

• Gliomas are malignant brain tumors, treatment combines radiotherapy with anticancer drug temozolomide

• Some cases shows resistance , DNA repair mechanism aided by NAD+ molecule

• QRTP enzyme break down quinolinic acid to NAD+ molecule

• Agent directed against enzyme help suppress therapy resistance in brain

Fish oil reduces the risk of breast cancer (Nordqvist, Joseph.

"Fish Oils Reduce Risk Of Breast Cancer." Medical News Today. MediLexicon, Intl., 28 Jun. 2013. Web.)

• Links fish,n-3PUFA intake and risk of breast cancer

• Marine n-3PUFA intake associated with 14% reduced risk of breast cancer

• For every 0.1g/day increase in consumption ,risk reduced by 5%

CONCLUSION

• Increase in the no: of cancer patients every year• Factors responsible should be controlled• Create awareness about cancer and its prevention• Careful about diet and lifestyle
