Release date: 2014-08-12 Recently, a study published in the American Cancer Research Association's "Cancer Epidemiology Biomarkers Prevention" found that 9.3% of cancer survivors in the United States still insist on smoking after 9 years of diagnosis, 83% of these people are daily Smoking, and an average of 14.7 cigarettes a day, 40% of people smoke more than 15 cigarettes a day. There are also survivors who do not smoke every day, smoking 10.9 days in 30 days, and 5.7 cigarettes per day in this 10.9 days. Lee Westmaas, head of tobacco research at the American Cancer Society (ACS), said the first author of the study: "We need to track cancer survivors for a long time, confirm whether they are still smoking, and provide appropriate counseling and interventions and possible Drugs to help them quit smoking." Dr. Roy Herbst, head of internal medicine oncology at Yale University, said in an interview: "Smoking causes new mutations in cancer survivors to form secondary cancers and additional primary cancers." In the ACS survey, the researchers analyzed data on the smoking status of 2938 cancer survivors after 9 years of diagnosis. The following table shows the proportion of smoking among different types of cancer survivors: bladder cancer (17.2%), lung cancer (14.9%), ovarian cancer (11.6%), melanoma (7.6%), kidney cancer (7.3%), colorectal cancer ( 6.8%). Among these cancer survivors, younger, less educated or low-income people who drink more are more likely to smoke. About a third of people plan to quit, but the intention to quit is relatively low among married, elderly, or smoke-stricken cancer survivors. Westmaas said: "Smoking is addictive. Cancer does not guarantee that patients can quit, even if cancer is closely related to smoking. We need to intervene more in this behavior." Related reports: Tobacco will cause 1 billion deaths in the 21st century The World Health Organization has published a report on the website saying that nearly 6 million people die every year from smoking worldwide, of which more than 5 million are due to direct use of tobacco, and more than 600,000 non-smokers die from "second-hand smoke." If no urgent action is taken, by 2030, the number of deaths per year can exceed 8 million. The World Health Organization warned that tobacco in the 20th century caused about 100 million deaths worldwide. If the current trend continues, tobacco in the 21st century will cause 1 billion deaths. Source: biodiscover We are a supplier of high-speed rapier looms and flexible rapier looms.
