Hodgkin’s Disease in Children : Controversies and Current Practice
Where do you begin to look for a recent, authoritative article on the diagnosis or management of particular malignancy?The few general oncol ogy textbooks are generally out of date.Single papers in specialized journals are informative but seldom comprehensive; these are more often prelimin ary reports on a very limited number of patients.Certain general journals frequently publish good in-depth reviews of cancer topics, and published symposium lectures are often the best overviews available.Unfortunately, these reviews and supplements appear sporadically, and the reader can never be sure when a topic of special interest will be covered.Cancer Treatment and Research is a series of authoritative volumes that aim to meet this need.It is an attempt to establish a critical mass of oncology literature covering virtually all oncology topics, revised frequently to keep the coverage up to date, easily available on a single library shelf or by a single personal subscription.We have approached the problem in the following fashion.First, by dividing the oncology literature into specific subdivisions such as lung can cer, genitourinary cancer, pediatric oncology, etc.Second, by asking emin ent authorities in each of these areas to edit a volume on the specific topic on an annual or biannual basis.Each topic and tumor type is covered in a volume appearing frequently and predictably, discussing current diagnosis, staging, markers, all forms of treatment modalities, basic biology, and more.

Disease
In 1942 life expectancy at birth was 66 for women and 60 for men.Death was usually due to degenerative and infectious diseases.The greatest postwar success in the fight against disease was the establishment of the NHS and care that was free at the point of delivery.Life expectancy rose dramatically, but since 2011 incremental improvements have stalled and even, in some regions, begun to reverse.Infant mortality rates have crept up and the postcode lottery of health provision underscores the level of social inequality in the UK. Good health is not simply the absence of disease.It is the collective of physical, social and mental well-being.It is the product of nutrition and genetics, of healthy lifestyles and preventative health interventions.It is the interaction between the conditions in which we live, work, play and age.Yet access to many of the things that make and keep us healthy are not evenly distributed in the population.Achieving good health is then deeply entwined with all aspects of society and cannot simply be solved by policies in one area alone. In our rediscovery of Beveridge, the shadow of the pandemic looms large.It is has never been more urgent to address the underlying causes of Disease. And it has never been clearer that these determinants are not only social or physiological, but also political.

God-Disease
Winner of the 2023 Mary McCarthy Prize in Short Fiction, selected by Manuel Muñoz. Imagine a space where cities and municipalities are delineated only by letters.A place in flux, a freewheeling confluence that does not commit to being American, Korea, or even Korean American.This is where God-Disease takes place. Strange things happen here. Identities warp and shift; sometimes they vanish altogether.In the titular story, a museum insect curator returns to her birth town, J Municipality, feeling empty and searching for answers to her mother’s absence; was it insanity that plagued her, or was it shin-byeong—god-disease?Equal parts Southern Korean Gothic and slipstream, the collection is a meditation on language, identity, and names, and how deceptively fragile they can be.

Is caries an infectious disease or a lifestyle disease?
Caries, also known as tooth decay or cavities, is primarily considered an infectious disease. It is caused by bacteria in the mouth, particularly Streptococcus mutans, which produce acids that erode the tooth enamel. However, lifestyle factors such as poor oral hygiene, high sugar consumption, and lack of regular dental care can contribute to the development and progression of caries. Therefore, while caries is fundamentally an infectious disease, lifestyle choices can play a significant role in its occurrence.
