Article Synopsis
- Environmental risk factors like indoor air pollution from biomass fuels play a significant role in increasing cancer mortality rates, with notable risks for colorectal, esophageal, and gastric cancers.
- A study involving over 50,000 participants found that switching from solid fuels to gas cooking could reduce specific cancer mortalities by several percentages in rural areas.
- The research suggests that eliminating solid fuels and implementing educational and resource-based interventions can effectively lower cancer-related deaths, highlighting the need for policy changes in vulnerable communities.
Heavy metal (HM) contamination in agricultural soils has been a serious environmental and health problem in the past decades. High concentration of HM threatens human health and can be a risk factor for many diseases such as stomach cancer. In order to investigate the relationship between HM content and stomach cancer, the under-study area should be adequately large so that the possible relationship between soil contamination and the patients' distribution can be studied.
