Characteristics and Management of a Cancer Patient with Stroke: A Case Report
DISCUSSION: Intensive rehabilitation can be an effective treatment for patients with stroke associated with cancer, but in convalescent rehabilitation wards, it is not possible to combine rehabilitation and cancer treatment. Therefore, for patients whose physical function takes a long time to recover or whose cancer is not under control, it is necessary to make a careful decision on whether intensive rehabilitation is the optimum approach. To facilitate informed decision making, it is important to share information across departments.PMID:34888429 | PMC:PMC8613505 | DOI:10.2490/prm.20210047

Since the release of the Surgeon General’s Report on Smoking and Health 50 years ago, there have been 20 million deaths due to tobacco. Almost half the deaths from 12 different types of cancer combined – including lung, voice box, throat, esophagus, and bladder cancers – are attributable to cigarette smoking alone.

Periodontal disease and risk of all cancers among male never smokers: an updated analysis of the Health Professionals Follow-up Study
Conclusions Advanced periodontitis was associated with a 2.5-fold increase in smoking-related cancers among never smokers. Periodontitis may impact cancer risk through system immune dysregulation. Further studies need to examine the immune impact of advanced periodontitis on cancer, especially for cancers known to be caused by smoking.
