Study finds a reduction in SuperOxide Dismutase and Glutathione Perioxidase in advancing breast cancer.  Cancer is a high oxidative stress disease that results in inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction and proliferation.  Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) is proposed to be another biomarker to assess tumor stage.  

Here we discussed Dementia stages & symptoms. Dementia is a wider category of brain diseases. Long term memory loss causes Alzheimer's

3 cases reports of the use of the oncolytic RIGVIR virus in stage III and stage IV disease.

Good review of PET/CT scan and MaxSUV in head and neck cancers.

"Glutathione reductase activity is lower in all colorectal carcinoma groups than in control, and a significant decrease in glutathione reductase activity was obtained between patients in tumor stage II and III compared to tumor stage IV." Same is see with SOD in study.

better survival with lumpectomy and radiation versus mastectomy for early stage breast cancer.

UK regulator has approved a second oral antiviral for early treatment of Covid-19 in high-risk adults, after molnupiravir. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) gave its nod for a new treatment called Paxlovid (PF-07321332 and ritonavir), after finding it safe and effective at reducing the risk of hospitalisation and death in people diagnosed with mild Covid-19 infection. Developed by Pfizer, Paxlovid prevents the multiplying of virus, helping the body to overcome the infection. A clinical trial for the treatment in high risk individuals revealed that a five-days course of Paxlovid reduces the risk of hospitalisation and death by 89 per cent. It further revealed that Paxlovid is most effective when taken in the early stage of infection. Dr June Raine, MHRA chief executive, said: "We now have a further antiviral medicine for the treatment of Covid-19 that can be taken by mouth rather than administered intravenously. This means it can be administered outside a hospital setting, before Covid-19 has progressed to a severe stage."

Stage 4 kidney disease with 28% kidney function can i live like a normal person ? In general, people with only 28% kidney function have to live with dialysis for the rest of their life, but fortunately, in our days they can have a chance to

TK-1 is a proliferation biomarker of DNA repair. TK-1 is a nuclear biomarker of cancer prognosis, survival, recurrence and predicts risk of progression of pre-malignant disease.

This study finds a strong correlation between advancing breast cancer, decreased catalase and SOD with increasing MDA.  The authors of this study conclude this is a key factor in carcinogenesis and not a by-product of cancer.  This flies in the face of traditional medicines fear of antioxidant therapy in cancer.

TK-1 useful in evaluation of disease stage and therapy efficacy. TK-1 was used in conduction with LDH, CEA, NSE, and TPA.

How to avoid dialysis for PKD stage 3 patients? As we all know, Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of genetic kidney disease, with the disease goes worse, doctors will recommend dialysis to patient.

Portable chair frames can be constructed of either steel or aluminum and have weights anywhere from 15 lbs. and 45 lbs. depending on the model. All chairs will fold from side to side and some have folding back the make transporting and storage easier. Most chairs have weight capacity of 250 lbs. But the heavy duty models will hold up to about 450 lbs. Of course, a chair which will hold 450 lbs. Will be a much more heavily constructed and will push the weight towards the 45 lb. weight. The most common wheel configuration for portable chairs is four 8\" casters with solid tires. The front two casters will swivel to enable turning. On some models the rear two wheels may be 12\" in diameter instead of 8\" and have air tires insted of solid tires. The larger wheels will give a little bit softer ride and traverse rough terrain a little better. They fold up in interesting ways to collapse to the size of a suitcase when not in use and are usually large enough to cover one or two stairs when extended. It is important to consider their weight and the person who would most often be carrying the ramp and setting it up.

New prospective study of 1023 patients finds that high-insulogenic diet, also know as a traditional American diet, high glycemic, high sugar diet... is associated with an increased risk of cancer recurrence and mortality compared to low insulogenic diet.  The authors concluded that this would be beneficial for after surgical resection in people with stage III colon cancer. My question, is why wait on the development of cancer: use a low-insulogenic diet to prevent the cancer all together or when diagnosed implement immediately.  Why wait? Treat early! Prevent!

COPD consists of multiple lung infections and is considered incurable by most physicians. Can timely diagnosis, on the bright side, slow down its progress?

Another great review of the immune system during different stages of carcinogenesis; how the cancer manipulates the immue system to cloak itself from the immune system.

study shows that mice lacking PR-A and PR-B (progesterone receptors) have increased uterine inflammation.   Again, the inflammatory/pro-inflammatory effects of hormones may be regulated through receptors.  This may be the reason that different stages of life elicit a different response with the same hormone.
