The risk of cancer in people infected with Helicobacter pylori increases by 4-6 times. The carcinogenic process can be divided into four stages: ① long-term infection, ② chronic inflammation, ③ gene damage, and ④ cancer.
CAR-T is good at fighting blood tumors (such as leukemia), but it is not very effective against solid tumors (such as lung cancer and liver cancer).
TCR-T can recognize more targets, especially antigens inside cancer cells, so it has more potential for solid tumors!
Craniopharyngioma is a benign tumor. Although it originates from a very short section of the pituitary stalk between the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus, it can grow into various types, textures, growth directions, and various kinds of craniopharyngiomas.
Rhizopus arrhizus is one of the common pathogenic bacteria. After the patient inhales the fungus, it can spread to the paranasal sinuses, then extend to the adjacent bone tissue, orbits and cavernous sinuses, and finally spread to the brain.
At least one in six cancers is directly related to infection with transmissible pathogens. Although cancer itself is not contagious, some cancer-causing pathogens can be transmitted through daily contact, increasing our risk of cancer.
The formation of cancer is a complex process, usually caused by mutations in genes within cells, which leads to uncontrolled cell growth and eventually the formation of tumors. These gene mutations are caused by a variety of factors, including genetic factors, environmental factors and lifestyle.
Pneumothorax, commonly known as "burst lung", occurs when a rupture occurs in lung tissue, air will rush into the pleural cavity, making it impossible for the lung to expand normally, causing chest pain and difficulty breathing at the mildest, and life-threatening at the worst.
Diffusion Wiring (DWI)
DWI can be likened to a "scout" for acute cerebral ischemia. It can detect signs of cerebral ischemia hours earlier than conventional MRI scans and is one of the items for screening cerebral ischemic diseases.
MRA is a non-invasive, radiation-free, simple, economical and accurate cerebrovascular screening method. Compared with cerebrovascular CT three-dimensional reconstruction (CTA) and cerebral angiography (DSA), it requires the injection of contrast agents.
Lumbar spinal stenosis. If you can only relieve the pain by bending your waist like a shrimp when walking, and you feel pain, numbness and soreness in your legs, and the pain gets worse the more you walk, and you may even be unable to get out of bed, this is a symptom of intermittent claudication.
If you feel pain in the upper part of your buttocks, you may have sacroiliitis. The sacroiliac joint is where the pelvis connects to the spine. This pain usually gets worse when you walk or work, but it gets better when you lie down and rest.
If you feel pain on the left or right side of your waist, or pain on both sides but one side is worse, and at the same time you have pain in one leg, numbness, soreness, fatigue, etc., then this may be caused by lumbar disc herniation compressing the nerve roots.
I feel pain in a large area of ​​my waist, especially when I stand up after bending over. The pain and soreness are particularly obvious. The pain will be relieved after I straighten my waist or gently beat my waist. This is usually a lumbar muscle strain.
The microbiota-gut-brain axis (MGBA) is a bidirectional communication pathway between the gut and the brain, and it is currently believed that the gut microbiota environment can influence brain activity and vice versa.
A 31-year-old male presented with nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Abdominal CT showed a 5.9-cm dense cystic lesion near the gastric antrum and a 7.8-cm mass in the splenic hilum, gastric body, and pancreatic tail. Imaging findings suggested gastrointestinal stromal tumor.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory skin disease. Globally, the number of people suffering from AD is as high as 230 million, making it one of the most common skin diseases in all age groups.
Adult men should drink 1700 ml of water per day; adult women should drink 1500 ml of water per day;
People who work outdoors in high temperatures or sweat a lot should drink more water appropriately.
Anorexia nervosa is a severe eating disorder that commonly affects adolescents and young women. The core symptom is an excessive concern about weight and body shape that reaches a pathological level.
The core muscles refer to the deep and superficial muscles surrounding the spine, pelvis and hip joints. The core muscles are important for maintaining the stability of the spine and pelvis, enhancing body coordination and balance, and reducing the risk of falling, especially for the elderly.
HPV virus transmission routes include contact transmission, sexual transmission and mother-to-child transmission, among which sexual contact is the most common route of infection. Infection may cause lesions in the cervix, vagina, vulva and other parts.
CAR-T cell therapy is a process in which doctors extract T cells from the patient's body and then modify the T cells through genetic engineering technology, allowing the T cells to accurately find cancer cells and attack them, thereby restoring health.
