Dr. Shubham Jain on India being a high-incidence region for gallbladder cancer globally WION | World Cancer Day

Abnormal growth of cells begins in the gallbladder, which is a small, pear-shaped organ on the right side of the abdomen, just beneath your liver, is defined as gallbladder cancer. Experts have noted that the size gallbladder and its location make it easier for cancer to grow undetected.
In a report published in a medical journal in August 2019, it was found that cases of gallbladder cancer (GBC) have been increasing significantly.
The report titled-"Epidemiology of gallbladder cancer in India"-it is mentioned that India is a high-incidence area for GBC and contributes to about 10 percent of the global GBC burden.
WION spoke with experts to know more about GBC.

Dr. Anadi Pachaury on Prevalence of cervical cancer in India | The Times of India (Blogs) | Exclusive Article
The high prevalence of cervical cancer is an urgent call to spread awareness and provide access to treatment facilities to women all around the world. Out of all the cancers affecting women, 6-30% of cases are of cervical cancer. It comes right after breast cancer in women. The whole month of January is marked as Cervical Cancer Awareness Month by the WHO to keep people informed about the causes of cervical cancer and its treatment.
Cancer is a condition where cells keep growing in the body and spreading to other parts, causing hindrances in the body’s function. When this happens in the uterine cervix, it is called cervical cancer. Cervical cancer can affect women of any age, but it is most common in women over the age of 30. The long-lasting infection of human papillomavirus (HPV), is responsible for cervical cancer. This virus is sexually transmitted and affects half of the sexually active people at some point in their lives. Not all HPV infections lead to cervical cancer, but the risk increases rapidly. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a group of over 200 related viruses, many of them capable of causing different types of cancer.
Need to create awareness around cervical cancer:
People must be made aware of early detection and preventive measures as soon as possible. The most common test used for diagnosis is the Pap smear test, which is also called cervical cytology. In this test, the doctor examines and collects a sample of cells from the cervix region using a spatula or a swab. The sample is then observed by a cytologist under a microscope. A negative result means there’s no infection, whereas a positive test means the presence of precancerous or cancerous cells in the region. In the event of a positive test, another test is usually performed to rule out any errors in the diagnosis. Women over 30 years of age should undergo this test at least once every 5 years.

Dr. Rajeev Verma on The effect of long COVID on joints and bone health in The Times of India (Digital) | Exclusive story
COVID risk on bone health: COVID primarily is a respiratory disease and affects the lungs the most. The most common symptoms of COVID, even in new mutations are cough, sore throat, fever, and shortness of breath which again directly impacts the respiratory system. But there have been reported symptoms of fatigue, joint and bone pain, and worsened symptoms after little physical or mental exertion in long COVID.
Dr. Rajeev Verma, HOD and consultant - Joint Replacement and Orthopaedics, HCMCT Manipal Hospitals, Dwarka says, “There are a few reasons for this musculoskeletal pain. First, direct viral toxicity, endothelial cell damage and dysregulation of the immune response lead to exaggerated inflammation leading to muscular pain. Second, the muscular pain and long recovery time of COVID may cause stiffness and immobility in the joints that eventually end up causing joint pains.”

Dr. Sanjeev Kumar How sedentary lifestyle is making us vulnerable to cancer, here's what doctors say in Livemint this World Cancer Day
How sedentary lifestyle is making us vulnerable to cancer, here's what doctors say:
A sedentary lifestyle is basically a lifestyle where a person spends most of his/her time in one comfortable position and does not indulge in much physical activity. Medical experts claim that this kind of lifestyle has many sorts of health risks in general and increasing cancer cases are also reported which originate due to a sedentary lifestyle. In the past decade, the cases of obesity-related cancer have been on the rise, and sitting, reclining, and lying down for hours at stretch is a new carcinogen, according to experts.
"In the past 30–40 years, three main modifiable factors have emerged that are associated with an increased risk of cancer: physical inactivity, sedentary behavior, and overweight or obesity. The incidence of obesity-related cancers is critically affected by dietary composition, physical activity, and sedentary practices. A key and effective measure in the prevention of cancer is to reduce the exposure to modifiable causes of cancer, such as physical inactivity," says Dr. Sanjeev Kumar, Surgical Oncologist, HCMCT Manipal Hospitals, Dwarka.
