| ARTICLES RELATED TO colon cancer | |  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - C-reactive protein - Role in cardiovascular diseaseRecent research suggests that patients with elevated basal levels of CRP are at an increased risk for hypertension and cardiovascular disease, although recent research[1] suggests the correlation is moderate.
The amount of CRP produced by the body varies from person to person, and this is affected by lifestyle as well as genetic makeup, which accounts for almost half of the variation in CRP levels between different people. Higher CRP levels tend to be found in smokers and in people who are sedentary, overweight or who have high bloo ...

|  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - Mickey McDermott - Professional career
Mickey McDermott - Minor leagues.
McDermott was assigned to the Red Sox's Double A affiliate, the Scranton Red Sox of the Eastern League. He ended up the season with a 16-6 record with a 3.29 ERA and 136 strikeouts in 175 innings. On July 14, 1946, at the age of 17, McDermott threw a no-hitter against the Albany Senators, making him possibly the youngest pitcher to throw a no-hit game in the high minors.
The following season, McDermott was moved up to Boston's Triple-A affiliate, the Louisville Colonels wh ...

|  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - Krukenberg tumor - PathogenesisThere is some debate over the exact mechanism of metastasis of the tumour cells from the stomach, appendix or colon to the ovaries; classically it was thought that direct seeding across the abdominal cavity accounted for the spread of this tumor, but recently some researchers have suggested that lymphatic (i.e. through the lymph nodes), or haematogenous (i.e. through the blood) spread is more likely, as most of these tumours are found on the inside of the ovaries. Proponents of this theory cite the fact that metastases are never found in the ...

A giant in science, Pasteur discovered the principle of sterilization which came to be known as "pasteurization." His discoveries led to the universal practice of surgical antisepsis. He also developed techniques of vaccination to control bacterial infection, as ...

John Maynard Smith - Early years.
John Maynard Smith was born in London, the son of a surgeon but following his father's death in 1928 the family moved to Exmoor, where he became interested in natural history. He went to Eton College but was purportedly unhappy there, but developed an interest in Darwinism and mathematics, having read the work of old Etonian J.B.S. Haldane, whose books were in the school's library despite the bad r ...

|  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - Cancer - Causes and pathophysiology
Cancer - Origins of cancer.
Cell division (proliferation) is a physiological process that occurs in almost all tissues and under many circumstances. Normally the balance between proliferation and cell death is tightly regulated to ensure the integrity of organs and tissues. Mutations in DNA that lead to cancer disrupt these orderly processes.
The uncontrolled and often rapid proliferation of cells can lead to either a benign tumor or a malignant tumor (cancer). Benign tumors do not spread to other p ...

| |  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - Barium enema - How the test is performedThis test may be done in an office or a hospital radiology department. The patient lies on the X-ray table and a preliminary X-ray is taken. The patient is then asked to lie on the side while a well lubricated enema tube is inserted gently into the rectum. The barium, a radiopaque (shows up on X-ray) contrast medium, is then allowed to flow into the colon. A small balloon at the tip of the enema tube may be inflated to help keep the barium inside. The flow of the barium is monitored by the health care provider on an X-ray fluoroscope screen (like a TV monitor). Air may be puff ...

|  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - Soybean - ApplicationsSoybeans can be broadly classified as "vegetable" (garden) or field(oil) types. Vegetable types cook more easily, have a mild nutty flavor, better texture, are larger in size, higher in protein, and lower in oil than field types. Tofu and soymilk producers prefer the higher protein cultivars bred from vegetable soybeans originally brought to the United States in the late 1930s. The "garden" varieties are generally not suitable for mechanical combine harvesting because they have a tendency to sh ...

Folic acid - Dietary fortification of folic acid.
Since the discovery of the link between insufficient folic acid and neural tube defects (NTDs), governments and health organisations worldwide have made recommendations concerning folic acid supplementation for women intending to become pregnant. For example, the United States Public Health Service (see External links) recommends an extra 0.4 mg/day, which can be taken as a pill. However, many researchers believe that supplementation in this way can never work effectively enough since not a ...

He was extremely well-liked by Israel's founding Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion and became his protege, together with Shimon Peres (the future Prime Minister).
After the 1948 war, Dayan began to rise rapidly through the ranks. From 1955 to 1958 he was the Chief of Staff of the Israel Defense Forces. In this capacity, he command ...

|  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - Adrian Rogers - On Politics and Social IssuesLike many influential conservative pastors (for example, Jerry Falwell and Billy Graham), Dr. Rogers had been somewhat active in advancing a conservative political agenda in the United States. Dr. Rogers had stated that Christians have a duty to be involved in government, stating that it is a sin for a Christian to abstain from voting in an election.
Familial dynamics was a recurrent issue for Dr. Rogers. He focused most closely on fathers that he labeled "drop-out dads." According to Dr. Rogers, since the bible emphasizes the paterna ...

|  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - Agent Orange - Use in VietnamDuring the Vietnam War, the US instituted a massive herbicidal program that ran from 1961 through 1971. The aim of the program was two-fold, one to destroy the "cover" provided by the jungle-like forest, and another to deny food to the enemy.
A variety of chemicals, fifteen in total, were tested or used operationally during this program. The primary broad-leaf herbicides sprayed during the "testing" phase of the program between 1962 and 1964 were Agent Orange, Agent Purple and Agent White. The chemicals themselves had no color, the na ...

Apple - Apple breeding.
Like most perennial fruits, apples are ordinarily propagated asexually by grafting. Seedling apples are different from their parents, sometimes radically. Most new apple cultivars originate as seedlings, which either arise by chance or are bred by deliberately crossing cultivars with promising characteristics. The words seedling, pippin, and kernel in the name of an apple cultivar suggest that it originated as a seedling. Apples can also form bud sports (mutations on a ...

| |  |  |  | colon cancer: Encyclopedia II - Endometrial cancer - Risk FactorsMost women with endometrial cancer have a history of unopposed and increased levels of estrogen. One of estrogen's normal functions is to stimulate the buildup of the endometrial lining of the uterus. Excess estrogen administered to laboratory animals can produce endometrial hyperplasia, which is a precursor for cancer.
Increased estrogen may be due to:
