advised not to mix the Gerson diet with other diets as the balance could potentially be thrown off. In addition, the majority of fruits and vegetables on the Gerson diet are mainly positive on the alkalinity chart which adds to their effectiveness as cancer thrives in an acidic environment. The liquid form is preferred for the diet as it is a more efficient method to get the most nutrients into the system in comparison to a solid diet. Congruently, the Gerson Therapy requires that a diet that is lacking

Advances being made in mesothelioma treatment For current mesothelioma patients and the 3,000 new cases diagnosed each year, there is some hope, in the form of recent advances that allow specialists to take a more curative approach and enable patients to live longer, higher quality lives. While the typical mesothelioma patient lives an average of nine to 12 months after diagnosis, there are mesothelioma survivors today living much longer: three, five, or 10 or more years after undertaking aggressive

Cancer is a name given to a lot of diseases that combine together, that might cause death, tumors, and long days of treatment. Some of the cells then separate and spread into the tissues without stopping. Cancer can start anywhere in the body, the human body has trillions of cells, and when cells grow they get replaced with new ones. But when cancer starts the process of replacing old cells with new ones stops. When the cells get damaged or grow old new cells grow, but sometimes the cells aren’t

managers work with patients, one-on-one, at the micro level. The intern’s most dominant intervention is discharge planning. Discharge planning is a process that is used to help transition a patient from one level of care to the next, as smoothly as possible. However, the intern’s role as case manager also involves more than just discharge planning. The intern also receives referrals to counsel oncology patients who have been screened with the National Comprehensive Cancer Network’s (NCCN) Distress

touch receptor. (Halata et al., 2003) MCC was first reported in 1972 by Cyril Toker as “trabecular carcinoma of the skin” that was mainly found in elderly patients. (Journalof Skin Cancer. 2013). Soon after, They were subsequently given the eponym "Merkel cells" in 1878 by Robert Bonnet. Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) is a rare type of skin cancer that is essentially the over division of merkel cells. (Joshi, 2005) Unfortunately, there are 1500 new cases of MCC annually in the United States. Merkel

participation of less than 25 patients. Another search in Medline/Pubmed was performed via PICO. The search was done as follows. Patient/Problem: neoplasm, Intervention: Diffusion weighted imaging , Compare to: fdg, Outcome: accuracy. This gave a total of 26 results. From these 26 articles 5 were included into this review (2) (3) (4) (5) (6). Exclusion of articles was based on: the absence of statistical numbers, not being a clinical trial, and the participation of less than 25 patients. Because of the

Time in the Chinese Culture Time orientation in the Chinese culture is another phenomenon related to Confucianism principles. The Chinese culture is very past-oriented, which according to Sagar means they “honor tradition and are respectful of elders” (2012, p. 59). This past-time orientation began because Confucius lived in a time where there were many wars and an overall decline in social morality, so he decided to look to the past for a better model to help reform society (Li, 2008). Confucianism

is a type of brain tumor and while it is rare in adults, accounting for 2-3% of brain tumors, ependymoma is mainly found in children and accounts for around 5% of all childhood brain cancers (American Cancer Society [ACS], 2014, January 31; American Brain Tumor Association [ABTA], n.d.). The survival rate of patients with ependymoma who have survived five years after their tumor is detected is 75% Tumors occur when cells grow to excess and form a mass. While some tumors are benign, meaning that they
