Unicentric prospective case control study comparing organochlorine levels including patients diagnosed with a pancreatic adenocarcinoma undergoing a surgery allowing to collect an adipose tissue sample (10g).
Controls are adults with no pancreatic cancer (excluded by a 6 months old computed
The METABIOTE study will be systematically proposed to patients selected for sporadic CRC surgery during the first preoperative outpatient visit. The attending surgeon will double-check all inclusion and exclusion criteria. An oral and written information will be given to patients, presenting the
Most hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) complicates cirrhosis, which is often caused by infection with hepatitis B or C viruses, alcohol, obesity, exposure to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) or hemochromatosis. Nevertheless, 10 to 40% of HCCs can develop on non-cirrhotic terrain and about 5% on nonfibrotic liver
The risk. Women carrying harmful mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene are at higher risk to develop breast and/or ovarian cancer than the general population. 12 percent of all U.S. women are going to develop breast cancer sometime during their lives (Howlader N, Noone AM, Krapcho M, et al. (eds). SEER
Fifty thousand cases of colon and rectal cancer (CRC) could be prevented each year through screening, increased exercise and improved diet. Obesity alone increases risk of CRC by 33% and is associated with increased CRC mortality. Red and processed meat consumption is associated with increased CRC
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the fifth most commonly diagnosed malignant neoplasm among women worldwide. The incidence of EC is higher in high-income countries, but it has been increasing in low- and middle-income countries.
The main risk factors for EC include the presence of comorbidities, such as
Gallbladder cancer is a leading cause of cancer death among women in Chile, which has among the highest reported gallbladder cancer incidence and mortality rates in the world. Gallbladder cancer provides a particularly good model for understanding the role of inflammation in carcinogenesis since the
INTRODUCTION:
Intestinal metaplasia (IM) is considered a precancerous lesion and is associated with a very small increase of gastric cancer risk. Generally there are no widely accepted guidelines on the IM management. Recently, the European Endoscopic Society and other European academic companies
The gut microbiome:
The human body is colonized by a multitude of microorganisms whose collective genome, the microbiome, complements and enhances our own genome. From this perspective, humans are "supra-organisms" colonized by a number of microbial cells that is 10 times greater than the sum of all
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most frequent cancer worldwide with a prevalence of 1.5 million people / year and is the second cause of death from cancer (650 000 deaths per year) for both genders after lung cancer.
In Greece it is estimated that about 3000 people are infected annually by the
Obesity over the pre- and postmenopausal years is linked to the risk of postmenopausal breast cancer. Multiple mechanisms are likely to contribute to obesity associated breast cancer risk. They include increased insulin like growth factor (IGF)-I bioavailability, oxidative stress, raised leptin to
Surgical treatment of lung cancer (LC) leads to peripheral and respiratory muscle dysfunction (Mdys) with exercise limitation. This characteristic feature might be generated, not only for a reduced lung function, but also by deconditioning as well as respiratory and peripheral muscle dysfunction. It
UV radiation has recently been classified as a known human carcinogen by the US Department of Health and Human Services. Nevertheless, the voluntary exposure to sunlight continues unabated despite progressively increasing rates of ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced illness and death, particularly
Colorectal carcinoma is currently the second most common fatal cancer in the United States, and is largely preventable through the use of screening in the asymptomatic population. Although colonoscopy is considered to be the most accurate 'gold standard' screening test, there are a significant
