20. COMPARISON OF CANCER
INDIA 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)
21. INDIAN SCENARIO WITH USA (2001)
Comparison of cancer; Indian scenario with USA [Fenley et al, 2001]
22. 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
23. 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)
24. 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%)
25. 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
26. 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%
27. 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
