MOUTH CANCER Research Questions: 1. What are the reasons for mouth cancer? 2. How effective are the treatments for mouth cancer? 3. How to avert mouth cancer? 4. What are the effective measures taken against mouth cancer? Objective:- The main reason behind choosing this topic is our keen interest in health and disease and when we saw the mortality rate due to cancer, it made us think to work on it. So we as a group of three candidates decided to spread awareness about mouth cancer. We decided…

Isaak Adoyi Professor Karp Immunology Capstone Research Paper The human body has approximately one trillion cells and precisely 46 chromosomes in each cell. Still, the human body can be altered by genetic mutation. Genetic mutations have had a great impact on humanity. They have brought pain and harm to numerous people. Cancer is one of the most lethal diseases. Cancer finds its origin when a portion of DNA inside a chromosome is damaged, causing a cell to mutate. Then, the mutated cell…

Did you know that about one unborn child dies every twenty-four seconds? That is roughly a hundred fifty-five babies per hour, and those numbers are drastically growing. By those statistics around seven unborn, innocent children will have died by the time you finish my essay. Is it really the place of humans to decide if another life deserves to live, or die? Or are we just playing God? Each unborn child has a unique and unrepeatable genetic code that is distinct in all characteristics. As you…

Stanislaw Burzynski, MD, PhD, the founder of antineoplaston treatment and therapy, has claimed to have treated hundreds of cancer patients in America and Mexico. Antineoplastons are a group of naturally- occurring peptides formed in the body through blood and urine which control tumor growth, and have been proven as a means of an alternative treatment, in respect to the toxins in chemotherapy (Reismann, 3). More than almost forty years later, after the beginning of antineoplastons, published…

The care of cancer is complex. In addition to treatments and consultations, providers must work succinctly on care coordination beyond oncology treatment and assist the patient and their family to mainstream back to primary care. Nevertheless, work toward continuity of care is actively engaging; the lack of utilizing the same tools to assess the patient in survivorship is absent (Snowden et al., 2011). A primary provider may often rely on the patient self-report rather than evaluating the…

can pinpoint and destroy any cancerous cells within the body by using a special equipment to send high doses of radiation ( MD Anderson Cancer Center). In fact, radiation can be given three different ways which are: • External radiation • Internal radiation • Systemic radiation However, these types of radiation are given by the type, size, and location of cancer within the body. What is more, radiation can also destroy normal cells by making small breaks in the DNA which can cause telomere…

more and more crucial in determining and treating cancer Farzana L. Walcott and her co-researchers sated PPACA that was established to assist people who do not have insurance with their health care. PPACA possess plans for genetic testing for the Breast Cancer Susceptibility gene, and for Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer in women. PPACA, however has some drawbacks because PPACA does not have plan for “1) high- risk men, 2) other inheritable cancer syndromes, and 3) individuals with a…

Therefore, it was extremely difficult for researches to conduct any research in the past. It wasn’t until about 20 years ago that scientists discovered that marijuana lead to a response in the endocannabinoid system. This system plays a pivotal role in the body’s many different functions such as in the hear along with the different systems of the body. This finding spark the interests of many researchers in order to conduct further research to find specific chemical in the marijuana that could…

Likewise, my Vanderbilt research work revealed a beneficial gene in malignant cancer. While my research experience was surely not the artistic outlet that I had in mind, I couldn’t have asked for a more fitting one. By the beginning of this year, I could pin up a certificate right next to “The Starry Night” that read “Regeneron Science Talent Search 2017 Scholar”. My findings, won the Best Scientific Poster Award at the Research Experience for 2017 High School students (REHSS)…

Cancer is a very serious problem in today’s world. Research shows that in 2016 an estimated 1,685,210 new cases will be diagnosed in the United States and about 595,690 will die from the disease. Most people would never imagine themselves being diagnosed with cancer, but what if you were suddenly taken to the hospital and given the horrible news of being diagnosed with cancer? Would you accept the fact that you may die and let cancer win? Or would you try your hardest to beat cancer and live…
