Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh have reported that patients with “Medicaid/uninsured and Medicare disability were at increased risk of death after the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) when compared with patients with private insurance.” The details of this study were published online on November 20, 2009 [...]]]></description>

Assuming that total exposure is the same, it is worse to smoke lightly for many years than to smoke heavily for a few years when it comes to the risk of head and neck cancer, new research shows. With alcohol use, however, the opposite is true.
The results, which were published in the October [...]]]></description>

Scientists looking at 23 studies involving almost 38,000 people initially see no connection. But a closer look at the highest-quality studies tells another story.
The answer to the question of whether cellphones increase the risk of brain, head and neck tumors is truly a matter of whom you ask.

Results of a study involving 473 participants showed that periodontitis was linked with the development of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
Researchers conducted a hospital-based case-control study between June 1999 and November 2005. The study involved 266 patients with head and neck cancer treated at the Roswell Park Cancer Center’s department [...]]]></description>

A new study shows that cancer risk could depend on a person’s job description. 
A recently released Nordic study shows how different careers contribute to different forms and incident rates of cancer. 
Lifestyle factors that are linked to specific careers are often a major influence on who gets cancer and who does not. [...]]]></description>

A growing amount of research suggests that vitamin D may be beneficial to cancer patients. In addition, laboratory, ecologic, and epidemiologic studies have shown some evidence that higher levels of vitamin D might lower the risk for colon, breast, endometrial, and prostate cancers.
But although the &#8220;evidence is intriguing,&#8221; an editorial published online [...]]]></description>

Hot tea drinkers are being warned to slow down and cool down, after a recent study has linked drinking hot liquids to an increased risk of throat cancer. Oesophageal cancers kill more than 500,000 people per year.
The Iranian study, published in the British Medical Journal, found that drinkers of hot tea (65-69 [...]]]></description>

A study of nearly 1.3 million British women offers yet more evidence that moderate alcohol consumption increases the risk of a handful of cancers. British researchers surveyed middle-aged women at breast cancer screening clinics about their drinking habits, and tracked their health for seven years.
A quarter of the women reported no alcohol use. [...]]]></description>
