The headline of the article is "Blood test could pick up risk of cancer five years in advance, say Harvard scientists." The article is written by Sarah Knapton. It was printedin November 2014.
The article is written about how a blood test could determine a person's risk of developing blood cancer. The author start by telling about : "People who often think about disease in black and white - that there's 'healthy' and there's 'disease' - but in reality most disease develops gradually over months or years.By the time a cancer has become clinically detectable it has accumulated several mutations that have evolved over many years. What we are primarily detecting here is an early, pre-malignant stage in which the cells have acquired just one initiating mutation."
In conclusion the athor said that: "Сanser is the end-stage of the process and the researchers involved emphasised that there is no clinical benefit today for testing for the mutations as there are currently no treatments that can prevent blood cancer."
I found this article important because nowadays it is an urgent problem. Many people are subjected to this terrible disease (young and old people). Professors and doctors are trying to find a vaccine for the treatment of cancer. While it is imposibly. Of course, people can only hope for a miracle.
What do you think about it?
ОтветитьУдалитьI found this article very interesting, because the cancer is so far one of the most important problems of humanity, and scientists continue to wrestle with the search for a cure. Prevention of disease is also very important aspect. And how to spend it is no less important information in the prevention of disease. I think that just the idea of the author was that prevention and proper care of your body are all keys to the fact that as soon as possible to know about the occurrence of the disease, to sustain life in the early stages of its development. Unfortunately, I have not seen any opinion Jana on this issue.
УдалитьI am glad that the medicine is not standing and develops. Once doctors find a cure for cancer. A step by step until they move to solve this problem. It's wonderful that nowdays we can detect cancer at an early stage and immediately take action and fight.
УдалитьThis article seemed to me interesting, I learned a lot and maybe I will pass the blood test too.
How can you resolve the situation?
ОтветитьУдалитьI think the question is incorrect or I understand it wrong. How can I resolve the situation, even if the doctors all over the world have not yet found an answer.
УдалитьThe problem is unresolvable. We can just wait untill the scientist will find a cure. Ordinary people can just make a blood test that will help them in research.
УдалитьReally interesting article. It's initially to determine disease on pre-malignant stage and prevent its developing, because most people get to know about this disease when it's already on the second or on the third stage. And it's great if it's possible to determine even person's risk of developing blood cancer.
ОтветитьУдалитьI have no doubt that there are currently treatments that can prevent blood cancer and the cure of it will be found.
