82. The Village Voice: Nation: Press Clips: Tobacco Row By Cynthia Cotts
    Explores a connection between $60,000 worth of tobacco ads in Brill's Content and a sixpage article in the magazine that bashes the media for overstating the link between secondhand smoke and lung cancer.  
    http://www.villagevoice.com/issues/9850/cotts.php
    
    Extractions: s there any connection between $60,000 worth of tobacco ads in the December issue of Brill's Content and a six-page article in the same issue that bashes the media for overstating the link between secondhand smoke and lung cancer? Absolutely not, says Steve Brill, editor of Brill's Content , who claims the infusion of tobacco money and his publication of a protobacco article are "a total coincidence." Brill, who is also the magazine's top business executive, says he follows a simple principle: "We run the stories we think we should run, without regard to who the advertisers are." (The article was accompanied by an equivocating editor's note explaining that the magazine welcomes tobacco ads—as does the Voice —although smoking causes cancer.)

85. Waging War On Lung Cancer
    lung cancer, the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women, is often difficult to detect in its early stages. Waging War on lung cancer.  
    http://www.fda.gov/fdac/features/1999/399_lung.html
    
    Extractions: May-June 1999 Waging War on Lung Cancer by Ellen Brown Five years ago, when Ken Giddes was vacationing with his wife in Vancouver, British Columbia, the 61-year-old resident of Atlanta began feeling short of breath. But since he was "running around quite a bit," Giddes chalked up his problem to being an overachieving tourist. When he returned home, though, his shortness of breath persisted. The causeuncovered by an x-raywas a collapsed lung. But it wasn't until he underwent surgery to repair his lung, that the cause of the collapse was clear: lung cancer had eaten a hole in the air sack of his lung. After surgeons removed his lung in an effort to contain the cancer, they checked Giddes for any traces of cancer every three months. Within a year there was more bad news: a CT scan revealed 13 spots on his remaining lung. Surgery revealed the cancer had spread throughout his remaining lung. Giddes recalled that he was given less than a 30 percent chance of living another two years. But he decided to battle the cancer "with all the energy, hope and positive attitude I could muster." After 30 weeks of chemotherapy, he was told his cancer was in remission. Today, he's glad he didn't give up because he's beaten the odds, surviving five years since his cancer was diagnosed. And as the head of the Caring Ambassador Program, sponsored by Republic Financial Corporation, he's helping other cancer survivors wage war on lung cancer, too.

    PASSIVE SMOKING DOES CAUSE lung cancer, DO NOT LET THEM FOOL YOU. The World Health Organization (WHO) has been publicly accused of suppressing information.  
    http://www.who.int/inf-pr-1998/en/pr98-29.html
    
    Extractions: Press Release WHO/29 9 March 1998 PASSIVE SMOKING DOES CAUSE LUNG CANCER DO NOT LET THEM FOOL YOU The World Health Organization (WHO) has been publicly accused of suppressing information. Its opponents say that WHO has withheld from publication its own report that was aimed at but supposedly failed to scientifically prove that there is an association between passive smoking, or environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), and a number of diseases, lung cancer in particular. Both statements are untrue. The study in question is a case-control study on the effects of ETS on lung cancer risk in European populations, which has been carried out over the last seven years by 12 research centres in 7 European countries under the leadership of WHO's cancer research branch the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The results of this study, which have been completely misrepresented in recent news reports, are very much in line with the results of similar studies both in Europe and elsewhere: passive smoking causes lung cancer in non-smokers.

    lung cancer is a cancer normally found in smokers, but in areas where there is a lot of air pollution it is also present. Overview, Video on lung cancer.  
    http://www.oncologychannel.com/lungcancer/
    
    Extractions: Overview Lung cancer is a disease caused by the rapid growth and division of cells that make up the lungs. Lung cancer is sometimes called "bronchogenic cancer," or it may be described by its particular histologic type, that is the type of tissue that is diseased. Under normal circumstances, lung cells reproduce in an orderly fashion to maintain tissue health and to repair injuries. However, when growth control is lost and cells divide too much and too fast, a cellular mass - or tumor - is formed. If the tumor is confined to a few cell layers (for example, surface cells) and it does not invade surrounding tissues or organs, it is considered benign. By contrast, if the tumor spreads to surrounding tissues or organs, it is considered malignant, or cancerous. If cancerous cells break away from the original tumor, travel, and grow within other body parts- such as the brain, bone, liver, adrenal glands, the opposite lung, or lymph nodes of the chest or collarbone (clavicle) regions - the process is known as

    Extractions: This site provides general information regarding smoking and quitting. For medical advice, visit your doctor or pharmacist. Prevention Early detection Referral Diagnosis Management : Small cell cancer, Non-small cell cancer, Mesothelioma, Advanced disease Case 1: Phillip Case 2: Christine In Practice Don't miss The GP is the anchor in a sea of changing faces for the lung cancer sufferer. The physician or surgeon who becomes the patient's first treating specialist may not be involved years later when metastases appear. The radiation oncologist is not going to be in the patient's home when the mist morphine needs to be replaced by a subcutaneous infusion. The medical oncologist will not be treating the family after the patients death. The GP's role begins with patient education about lung cancer prevention, early detection and prompt and appropriate referral. The GP also provides support through the phases of specialist treatment and has an important part to play in the management of patients with advanced disease, including the in-home palliative care of the dying patient. Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in Australia. While it used to be identified as a male-dominated disease, this is changing with changes in smoking patterns. Both tobacco use and lung cancer incidence are increasing in Australian women aged 25-44 and, in one state at least, now exceed levels seen in men of the same age. The incidence of mesothelioma (other than cases related to asbestos exposure) is also increasing.

    Extractions: Second-hand tobacco smoke is the main source of indoor air pollution. For more than a decade, convincing scientific evidence has been available to demonstrate that exposure to second-hand smoke both harms health, and worsens existing health problems. At least one thousand people are estimated to die each year in the UK as the result of exposure to other people's tobacco smoke.

     Extractions: Home Services Contact Links ... Chemotherapy Drugs Lung cancer Lung cancer is the second most common malignancy affecting both sexes. Roughly 170,000 Americans are diagnosed with this illness every year. It is considered the most rapidly increasing cause of death from cancer. Since 1987, lung cancer has been the leading cause of cancer death in women, surpassing breast cancer. And while lung cancer incidence has leveled off among men, it continues to rise steadily among women. The average age of patients with lung cancer is 60 years. It is more common in African-Americans and Hawaiians. Causes Cigarette smoking is the number one cause of this disease. Even passive inhalation of the smoke increases the chance of developing this illness. Radon exposure is another cause of lung cancer, killing 14,000 Americans every year. Asbestos exposure also increases Lung cancer risk. The risk becomes astronomical in exposed individuals who also smoke. Signs and Symptoms Patients do not manifest any signs in the very early stages. Cough, shortness of breath, chest pain or blood in the sputum are among the early warning signs. Other signs of this illness could be a change of voice, hoarseness, weakness, fatigue, and weight loss. Establishing Diagnosis When the diagnosis is suspected, patients must be examined carefully by a qualified physician. A chest x-ray along with studying a sample of sputum are the very first steps in establishing a diagnosis. If the study sputum does not confirm the diagnosis, then
