[1] A 2004 series of monographs released by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, a part of the World Health Organisation, summarized research from the 1960s onwards about the carcinogenicity of tobacco on various laboratory animals.
This constellation of symptoms is called carcinoid syndrome or (if acute) carcinoid crisis. Occasionally, haemorrhage or the effects of tumor bulk are the presenting symptoms. The most common originating site of carcinoid is the small bowel, particularly the ileum; carcinoid tumors are the most common malignancy of the appendix.

We've made massive strides against the deadly disease, but rates haven't fallen for people diagnosed with the disease who've never smoked.
Environmental pesticide exposure due to industrial agriculture potentially increases cancer risk to a degree similar to smoking. In a new study, researchers correlated cancer rates in geographic ...
