Identifying cancer early can help you prevent or treat it. Read our guide to cancer screenings for every age.
Lung cancer screeningsare recommended for anyone who has at least a 20 pack-year smoking history and currently smokes or has quit in the last 15 years. Pack-years are calculated by multiplying the average number of packs you smoke per day by the number of years you’ve smoked. Talk with ...
Once an individual has acquired early clinical AMD, there is still a defensible rationale for genetic screening. For example, the number and nature of AMD gene-associated alleles that patients possess may significantly influence the rate of progression of their disease. Current studies of AMD ...

The chest X-ray (CXR) is quick and easy; therefore, it is one of the most commonly used screening tests for a variety of diseases19. Despite its simplicity and ease of use, the CXR provides considerable information and is pivotal for the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiovascular and pulmona...
Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) allow reliable causal inferences to be drawn and have shown that dietary intake of specific high-dose combinations of zinc and antioxidants reduces progression from intermediate to advanced AMD.28-30 However, for diseases of aging, such as AMD, where there may ...
such as cancer and degenerative diseases. During age-related disc degeneration, for example, aberrant expression of Beclin-1 and LC3-II in NP cells was observed along with an abnormal number of autophagosomes. Similarly, degenerated human AF tissue showed markedly increased expression of autophagy-re...
