The principles and practice of oncology
Why is this work in the frame?
A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.
No Canadian affiliation. An affiliation-only frame — the usual design — would never have seen this work. It is one of the works that make the case for inverting the frame.
Abstract
Abstract In the UK cancer is a major problem today. Approximately a quarter of a million people are diagnosed with cancer and 120 000 die each year. While improvements in cardiovascular disease have resulted in a decline in mortality from heart disease, cancer mortality continues to rise and is expected to be the major cause of death across the next decade. Currently one person in three living in the UK will develop cancer during their lifetime and one in five will die from the disease. Over 60% of all cancers will occur in the over-65 age group and as our populations get older clinicians will be faced with increasing numbers of patients at risk or presenting with malignant disease.
