The World Health Organization (WHO) defines grade 1 (overweight) as a BMI of: 25 to 29.9. A BMI of 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 is considered a grade 1 (overweight) classification.
Sulfur dioxide is produced by power plants burning oil and coal, copper smelting, and paper mills. These sources are major factors in lung and other respiratory tract cancers. A family history is not considered a risk factor since these cancers are generally affected by environmental rather than genetic factors.
Numerous environmental factors can cause inflammation and include, for example, inhaling tobacco smoke, asbestos fibers, or fine particles in the air from diesel engine exhaust and industrial sources. Sulfur dioxide is produced by power plants burning oil and coal, copper smelting, and paper mills. These sources are major factors in lung and other respiratory tract cancers. A family history is not considered a risk factor since these cancers are generally affected by environmental rather than genetic factors.
Ionizing radiation exposure places radiologists at risk for the development of leukemia, lymphoma, and skin cancers.
The number of environmental factors can alter the frequency and consequences of genetic mutations. The most significant factors include smoking, radiation, obesity, and a few oncogenic viruses. Research data support the relationship between the exposure of ultraviolet light (UVL) and the development of:
25 to 29.9. A BMI of 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 is considered a grade 1 (overweight) classification. A BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 kg/m2 is considered normal range, whereas 30 to 39.9 kg/m2 is a grade 2 (severe overweight) classification, and a BMI higher than 40 kg/m2 is considered grade 3 (morbidly overweight).
Risk factors associated with a high risk of melanoma include light-colored hair, eyes, and skin; an inability to tan; and a tendency to freckle, sunburn, and develop nevi.
The Type-8 Human Herpes Virus (HHV-8) – sometimes referred to as the Kaposi Sarcoma Herpes Virus (KSHV), is a usual suspect for a specific type of cancer known as Kaposi Sarcoma. The chances of getting Kaposi Sarcoma to increase multifold if the patient in concern is also affected by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) – the same virus that causes AIDS.
Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) The Epstein-Barr Virus ( EBV) is known to cause cancers of the nose and throat (nasopharyngeal cancer), lymphoma of the stomach, Hodgkin lymphoma, and Burkitt lymphoma.
There are a few known variations of Blood Cancer, such as Lymphocytic Leukemia and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) which are caused by the Human T-lymphotropic Virus-1 (HTLV-1).
The virus that’s famous for causing AIDS (Acquired ImmunoDeficiency Syndrome), is often found in patients who develop Cervical Cancer (Invasive), Kaposi Sarcoma and some variations of Lymphoma. In many such cases, at least one other virus (usually either HHV-8 or HPV) plays a major role.
Aside from the commonly known fallouts associated with HPV , there are other sexually transmitted viruses which are commonly linked with different variations of lymphomas, sarcomas, and invasive cancers, such as:
However, certain types of cancers are caused by sexually transmitted viruses. Research has shown that some variations of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) are linked to cancers in different sites of the human anatomy, including the cervix, vagina, vulva, penis, anus, and some cancers of the mouth, throat, head, and neck.

The study revealed that before a cancer diagnosis was made, participants had a 10.5% (95% CI, 6.2%–14.9%) slower rate of memory decline compared with participants who remained cancer free. After a new cancer diagnosis, the memory appeared to decline but this effect was transient. After a cancer diagnosis, cancer survivors had a 3.9% (95% CI, 0.9%–6.9%) slower rate of memory decline compared with cancer-free individuals.

People with cancer had a slower rate of memory decline both before and after diagnosis, compared with people who were cancer-free, according to the results of a population-based cohort study recently reported in JAMA Network Open.
