Alcohol and drug leads to brain cancer

-

Consumption of excess alcohol and drugs in moderation is not just affecting the overall health; rather it can also cause brain cancer.


Drugs












When a person starts consuming the drugs, the effects of the drug become permanent in the person’s brain — even if they eventually stop using them. Generally, most experts suggest that a human brain continues to develop until about the age of 25. When a teenager does drugs, it causes irreversible changes in the brain, which on a long-term use or over-dose may cause irreparable changes to our nervous system, eventually leading to neuron and brain circuit injury, causing severe addiction and dependency.

The drug ‘‘fools’’ the human brain because they are similar to shape and size of neurotransmitters, which are natural chemical messengers. That’s why they can easily fit into the brain receptors and start an unnatural chain reaction of electrical charges.


Alcohol














We have all learned that everything we eat is broken down to generate energy. Alcohol is no different. Alcohol has now become an obvious “member” in all social circles and is not limited to only business meetings or weekend parties. It has been time and again advertised that alcohol consumption intensifies an underlying mental health disorder, be it depression, panic or anxiety.

Alcohol is commonly used to increase our confidence, especially in social gatherings or before other adventures, but alcohol is also a strong CNS depressant, which over long period consumptions of chronic drinking increases the risk of brain damage and damage to other organs because it has the capacity of travel over the blood-brain barrier.

The best way to reduce the chances of cancer from alcohol is to limit the consumption only into occasional and social drinking. However, consumption of drugs is a punishable offense and must be immediately reported followed by seeking a rehab for drug abuse withdrawal.

4 Silent Signs of Brain Tumor

Stubborn headaches There is no clear-cut type of a headache that can forecast whether or not the person having a brain tumor. The way to analyze is to be on the lookout for a new daily stubborn headache that won’t seem to go away or do not respond to any treatment. These headaches are often present when you wake up in morning and tend to worsen over time. These stubborn headaches depend upon the size or growth rate of the tumor of the brain. Loss of vision Patients experience blurred or double vision due to the tumor present on or near to the optical nerve. Including this other types of brain tumor cause abnormal eye movements and make changes or loss of vision, depending on the size and location of the tumor.  This symptom often sees a pituitary tumor that compresses chiasm, or part of the visual pathway.  Brain tumor or cancer is just one of many surprising disease eye doctors can diagnose first.

We feel very honored to have been offered the responsibility to organize this great 3rd International Conference on ‘’Neuro-Oncology and Neurosurgery conference,” will be held during September 20-21, 2018 Dubai, UAE.   The theme of this conference is ‘’Elucidate the mystery challenges of neuro-oncology and neurosurgery’’, which covers wide range of critically important sessions.   This conference bring all the Neuro-oncologists, Neurosurgeons, Neurologists and Neuroscientists together to share their experiences on the same platform. Neuro-Oncology is the multi-disciplinary specialty focused on the state-of-the-art treatment and advanced developmental research in brain and spinal cord neoplasm and many of which are very hazardous and life-threatening (glioma, pontine glioma, astrocytoma, ependymoma, glioblastoma multiforme and brain stem tumours). Among the carcinogenic brain cancers, astrocytoma, glioblastoma multiforme, gliomas of the brainstem and pons are worst. Ca...
