Cancer

Cancer /ˈkænsər/ is a class of diseases in which a group of cells display uncontrolled growth, invasion, and sometimes metastasis. These three malignant properties of cancers differentiate them from benign tumors, which are self-limited, and do not invade or metastasize. Most cancers form a tumor but some, like leukemia, do not. The branch of medicine concerned with the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer is oncology.

Versión Traducida de la canción "Cancer" de "My Chemical Romance". Letra Original Turn away If you could get me a drink Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded Call my Aunt Marie Help her gather all my things And bury me in all my favorite colors My sisters and my brothers still I will not kiss you 'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you Now turn away 'Cause I'm awful just to see 'Cause all my hair's abandoned off my body OH my agony Know that I will never marry, Baby I'm just soggy from the chemo But counting down the days to go It just ain't living And I just hope you know That if you say Goodbye today I'd ask you to be true 'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you 'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you

Vitamin D Prevents Cancer: Is It True?

In a new study, researchers at the UCSD School of Medicine and Moores Cancer Center used a complex computer prediction model to determine that intake of vitamin D3 and calcium would prevent 58000 new cases of breast cancer and 49000 new cases of colorectal cancer annually in the US and Canada. The researchers model also predicted that 75% of deaths from these cancers could be prevented with adequate intake of vitamin D3 and calcium.
