👀 How do we study #cancer? You're watching the cryosectioning of a liver biopsy containing metastatic colon tumor. The staining allows for the visualization of cellular abnormalities & tissue architecture > https://www.instagram.com/p/CxCtG4-Mpg4/

I realize it’s probably paywalled, but this is fucking bonkers. I’m astounded it’s legal, and I hope it won’t be for long. Some of these are drugs that people will die without. Perhaps we should not allow insurers to also pay themselves to be providers. #cancer

347 cases out of a sample of 50,226 during ONLY 11.3 years of follow-up. The longer the exposure to smoke inhalation, the higher those rates will be.
"Elevated" (#cancer rates) compared to the average rates of cancers that occur in a population. The risk is accumulative in both time of exposure & exposure to other forms of air pollution.
The study ONLY focused on lung Cancer.
Wood smoke pollution increases ricks of heart attacks and dementia. https://www.dsawsp.org/health/health-effects
Methods - 50,226 women without prior lung cancer...women reported frequency of use of wood-burning stoves &/or fireplaces
Conclusions - Higher rates of #Cancer (compared to women that didn't burn wood) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2023.108128

The #psychology of associated learning is an established psychological method
Think of the cultural change that would happen if most people associated the smell of #WoodSmoke with #AirPollution. If more people had an informed sense of smell
At the very least they'd not *want* to live in homes that had fireplaces & woodstoves.

The gross imbalances of cancer research must be addressed - Global cancer-research ecosystems invest billions of dollars in the development of oncological medicines and technologies, such as robotics and radiotherapy, yet comparatively little into programmes that aim to advance affordable, equitable and high-quality care and outcomes. The extraordinary growth in public and private expenditure on cancer discovery science and technologies, fuelled by the huge profits of cancer biopharmaceutical companies, has failed to create more opportunities for research in neglected areas. #Cancer #CancerCare #CancerResearch #BigPharma #research https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-02609-2

Susie Pinner is the aptly named creator of the Pinners Award Club - a group that encourages and rewards achievement with badges. This stemmed from her experience of fighting cancer and the struggles of recovery. She's collaborating with Mission Remission to create a similar club specifically for other people recovering from cancer.

"It is the first of a new class of “nuclear medicine” treatment. Scientists told The Times that successful trial results had paved the way for similar drugs to be used in other cancers including breast, lung and pancreatic tumours.
"Because the drug only binds to cancer cells, healthy tissue is spared, so patients avoid the brutal side-effects from other treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy."

#ToxicAir Resulted in #Cancer for #Navajo, #Apache and #WesternShoshone
#Copper and Gold #Mining, and #Coal-Fired Power Plants, Resulted in Cancer for Navajo, Apache, and Western #Shoshone
By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, September 4, 2023
"A copper smelter poisoning the air of Apaches, the coal-fired power plants on the #NavajoNation, and gold mining on Western Shoshone land, are among the top causes of cancer from #AirPollution in the United States, according to a new report, Poison in the Air, by #ProPublica.
"The #FreeportMcMoran copper smelter in #MiamiArizona -- located between the #SanCarlos #ApacheNation, and Apaches Sacred #OakFlat -- is the third in the United States for producing toxic air pollution causing cancer. The poison air means the central Arizona community of Miami has ten times the EPA's acceptable risk of cancer. Apaches are now in federal court battling both the mining industry, and the #BidenAdministration to stop another #CopperMine nearby at Oak Flat which would destroy their ceremonial place."

#ProstateCancer is both common and over-treated. A #cancer genomics researcher describes her father’s journey after a diagnosis.
He was diagnosed with an intermediate-risk cancer – unlike many Black men, who are diagnosed later and more likely to see the cancer progress to aggressive forms of the disease.
