Although the association between the epidemiological factors and sporadic colorectal cancer has been studied, the relation between smoking, alcohol drinking, family history of cancer, body mass index (BMI) and sporadic colorectal cancer still remains uncertain. So it is important to investigate the role of these factors in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer. http://www.huliq.com/11/82103/risk-factors-sporadic-colorectal-cancer-listed#comments Health colorectal cancer colorectal cancer treatment Thu, 11 Jun 2009 13:00:48 -0500 harminka 82103 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/81922/colorectal-cancer-increasing-young-adults A new study finds that in sharp contrast to the overall declining rates of colorectal cancer in the United States, incidence rates among adults younger than age 50 years are increasing. The authors theorize that these increases may be related to rising rates of obesity and changes in dietary patterns, including increased consumption of fast food. http://www.huliq.com/11/81922/colorectal-cancer-increasing-young-adults#comments Health colorectal cancer Mon, 08 Jun 2009 02:08:29 -0500 harminka 81922 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/81578/most-advanced-colorectal-cancer-patients-dont-require-surgery A new study shows that a large majority of patients who present with advanced colorectal cancer that has spread to other organs (stage IV) don't require immediate surgery to remove the primary tumor in the colon. Researchers from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) presented their data today at the American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting. http://www.huliq.com/11/81578/most-advanced-colorectal-cancer-patients-dont-require-surgery#comments Health colorectal cancer colorectal cancer treatment Sat, 30 May 2009 12:42:28 -0500 harminka 81578 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/81254/new-marker-colorectal-cancer-identified The colorectal cancer is thought to be resulted from a combination of environmental factors, diet, lifestyle, chronic inflammation and accumulation of specific genetic alterations. The pathogenesis and development of colorectal cancer involve multi-genes and multi-steps. TSPAN1 is a new member of TM4SF located at chromosome 1 p34.1. It encodes a 241 amino acid protein. TSPAN1 was reported as a tumor-related gene recently. http://www.huliq.com/11/81254/new-marker-colorectal-cancer-identified#comments Health colorectal cancer colorectal cancer treatment Fri, 22 May 2009 11:00:28 -0500 harminka 81254 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/80081/teleradiology-offers-ct-colonography-rural-areas CT colonography, which is a highly effective colorectal screening test, is feasible in rural health centers with the help of teleradiology, according to a study performed at the University of Arizona in Tucson, AZ. http://www.huliq.com/11/80081/teleradiology-offers-ct-colonography-rural-areas#comments Health colorectal cancer CT colonography Thu, 23 Apr 2009 13:01:22 -0500 harminka 80081 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/80026/hormone-therapy-offers-protective-effect-against-colon-cancer-older-women In a large study, a national team of researchers led by Mayo Clinic scientists observed that self-reported use of hormone therapy was associated with a significantly lower colorectal cancer risk.
