People quietly become the first killer lung health
Human lung cancer has become the leading cause of death due to cancer. Some experts said that lung cancer and AIDS and unhealthy living habits of this century is the most serious diseases endanger human health. Lung cancer is the primary cancer worldwide, the highest morbidity and mortality in the forefront of various types of cancer. it was on the rise, particularly in urban incidence rate continues to rise particularly noticeable. Speaking from malignant liver ranks first, lung cancer and other brain tumor ranked second, in which Patients with lung cancer five-year survival rate is only 15% domestic, in the majority of incurable patients, survival time from several months to several years. From the 1950s to the early 1970s the 20-year period, a 122% increase in lung cancer for men. female lung cancer increased by 177%. As for the early diagnosis of lung cancer to date no breakthrough was achieved, only one-fifth of the patients diagnosed with lung cancer after surgical resection conditions. Is the incidence of lung cancer in Chinese cities, the first cancer mortality, particularly in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Nanjing and other major cities, the incidence of lung disease and cancer mortality has been ranked first. Since 1977, the incidence of lung cancer in Beijing, which has the highest mortality rate in the first all malignancies. Lung cancer incidence rates for men in Beijing City 46.49/10 million (all male cancer incidence rate of 26.13% %); The incidence rate of 30.33/10 million (all female cancer incidence rate of 29.2%). 41.12/10 million for the same period in lung cancer mortality rates for men and women 27.76/10 million. The total cancer mortality rates were 29.2% and 27.25%. Shanghai doubled the incidence of lung cancer 10 years, compared with 10 years ago, in recent years the incidence of lung cancer has increased by one fold. Lung cancer incidence rates for men in 1996 statistics 74.76/10 million. 2000 83.43/10 its incidence has risen to 10,000; Later in every four cancer, who died of lung cancer alone; every 17 people dead, there is one person died of lung cancer. According to epidemiological experts predict that if we do not control smoking, air pollution and other negative factors, 2025. China will be more than one million patients with lung cancer every year, as the world's lung power. The incidence of lung cancer increased with the increase of age, 30 years before the patient is rare, the incidence increased gradually after age 40. to the high incidence of lung cancer in the elderly age, the 45-65 age group accounted for 75% of the total number of patients. 65 year-old or 70-year-old mortality in general reached a peak. Unfortunately, at present no special symptoms of early lung cancer, mainly in peacetime medical examination found that most do chest. chest when she found lung cancer. Advanced basically are diagnosed. Unless the trachea cancer, have early symptoms, Even if the lung tumors have been 1-2 centimeters, it would not be very obvious symptoms. Therefore, the middle-aged above 40 years of age, cough After SARS after the treatment is not satisfactory. In particular, it also cough or bloody sputum, it should pay sufficient attention to, or chest CT scan done best. once every six regular chest films or CT scan, to find cancer cells in sputum. The main finding of asymptomatic lung cancer, should be encouraged. Some lung cancer patients manifested as joint pain, similar to arthritis, in particular, wrist and ankle pain. The situation had not improved by arthritis treatment, the tumor should also be considered. In addition, if clubbing Digit, gynecomastia, skin and other emergencies, they will need to do further checks to prevent lung cancer were diagnosed early. Although lung cancer occurred more often, the male to female ratio was approximately 4-8:1, however, The survey found that lung cancer in the United States in recent years has become the No. 1 killer of women. 2003 United States has 70,000 women die of lung cancer, while only 39,000 people died of breast cancer. Caused by the number of lung cancer deaths among women, accounting for 27% of cancer deaths in women, breast cancer is far from over. "The number of deaths caused by lung cancer than breast cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer combined three types of cancer, Most of the women were not aware of this. " In the past 20 years, the number of women dying from lung cancer has increased by 150%. Compared with the 1950s, there was an increase of 600%. In 1950, died of cancer deaths among women of the world, lung cancer is only 3%, 10% and now it is 25%. Compared with men, women more susceptible to lung cancer. Today, there are still a lot of medical attention for women not having lung cancer, in addition, women also tend to overlook this point. Many women find that their breasts mass immediately think of breast cancer; But if there is a cough, shortness of breath, cough Peter night. Lane bloody sputum and other symptoms, Perhaps it is only when Deep Throat irritation. " the incidence and mortality of lung cancer in women, there are many reasons for the increase. Smoking is one of the reasons why the initiative should not be overlooked. According to statistics, 87% of lung cancer patients are smokers history; If the average daily smokers supported 4-60, 20 times increased risk of dying from lung cancer. In addition, Women suffering from passive smoking is the most important cause of lung cancer. Even among non-smokers, Women are more susceptible to lung cancer than men, especially cancer, which may be related to gender differences in the hormone secretion. Similarly, Guangzhou in China, a survey found that 60% of lung cancer patients with no history of smoking. which female beauty and health professionals engaged in the garment industry women are more prone to lung cancer. With industrial development. increasingly serious air pollution, factory emissions and automobile exhaust, the life of gas, the fumes from cooking, furniture pollution. The endless cycle of domestic air-conditioning emissions, will be on human lung injury; Second, many people make the immune pressure drop; In addition, the emotional factors can also induce cancer For example, the psychological imbalance retirement, Some cadres and ordinary people suffer from lung cancer caused high. kitchen fumes and lung cancer are women, although women have fewer smokers, However, they generally prefer to cook in their daily vegetable oil heated to 240-280 ° C heat, for the food-oil. Both speculation. experiments showed that This temperature distribution in the smoke contains a series of cell mutation and cancer caused by chemical substances. kitchen fume , coupled with poor ventilation. Women are the main reasons for the high incidence of lung cancer. No extraction of vegetable oil containing disperse the fumes from the chemical content of the most mutagenic , peanut oil is a vegetable oil contains 22% of butadiene, benzene is 12 times peanut oil; peanut oil content of such material at least. Meanwhile, the relatives of patients with lung cancer. especially the female relatives of patients with lung cancer have an increased risk of lung cancer in recent years the trend of younger, in Beijing from January to August 2002, found that the lung cancer patients, more than 10% of patients under 40 years of age, in which All patients 30 years of age accounted for 24% of such patients, the youngest aged only 16 patients. This phenomenon is mainly younger patients with the human tumor suppressor gene, some people lack the tumor suppressor gene, The probability is much higher than ordinary people suffering from cancer. bronchial adenoma cases can sometimes younger age of onset. reminded large , and pulmonary lung cancer is not the problem with modern life bad behavior. is a systemic disease. We have to bear in mind the three "20" : "The age of 20 start smoking. Smoking more than 20 years, over 20 smoke daily. " 3 "20", as long as there is. there are very easy to get lung cancer.
