EPIDEMIOLOGY AND ETIOLOGY OF BLADDER CANCER
Urologic Clinics of North America, 1992The incidence of bladder cancer continues to increase, with an estimated 53,000 new cases diagnosed in the United States in 1996-90% of which are transitional cell carcinomas. The male-to-female ratio is 3:1. A number of etiological factors are associated with the development of bladder cancer, but in industrialized countries, cigarette smoking is the ...

Nutrition and the Etiology of Cancer
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1982There is a growing body of scientific evidence that diet and nutrients play a causative role in the formation of cancer and that these factors may be amenable to active methods of prevention. It has been estimated that up to 35 per cent of cancers may be preventable by dietary manipulation. A theoretical basis for this are the direct-acting carcinogens

On the Etiology of Cancer of the Prostate
European Urology, 1978This paper demonstrates experimentally that the penetration of spermatozoa into the prostatic tissue can induce prostatic lesions such as abscesses, lithiasis and carcinoma.

Cancer, 1977
Cancer may be considered a genetic disease at the cellular level, in that evidence from studies of chemical, radiation, and viral carcinogenesis, as well as cytogenetics and hereditary cancers, suggests that irreversible changes in the cellular hereditary material occur in the development of a cancer cell.

A dominant focus of the research programs at our own and other laboratories remains the identification and characterization of the populations at high risk to breast cancer. The goal: the early detection of the disease and, ultimately, its biological control.

Skin Cancers and Their Etiologies
Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2011Skin cancers are the most common form of malignancy. Early diagnosis and treatment provides the best chance for survival and reduced morbidity. However, some patients have recurrent or resistant lesions. In patients with basal cell carcinoma (BCC), prognosis is relatively good for all four types of lesions (superficial, nodular, infiltrative, and ...

Etiology of anorexia in cancer
Cancer, 1986Although the causes of cancer anorexia remain poorly understood, it now seems evident that the symptoms of appetite and weight loss which occur in cancer patients are multiply-determined. Thus, the actual causes of specific clinical problems will depend on the type of disease and treatment involved.

The epigenetics of cancer etiology
Seminars in Cancer Biology, 2004Epigenetic dysregulation is central to cancer development and progression. This dysregulation includes hypomethylation leading to oncogene activation and chromosomal instability, hypermethylation and tumor suppressor gene silencing, and chromatin modification acting directly, and cooperatively with methylation changes, to modify gene expression.

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses that there is the rise in incidence that has taken place in many countries and has principally affected men. Corresponding to this rise, it must be postulated that there has been an increased prevalence of one or more causal factors in the environment.
