Download or read book Ovarian Cancers written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-04-25 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of promising advances in cancer research, there are considerable and even alarming gaps in the fundamental knowledge and understanding of ovarian cancer. Researchers now know that ovarian cancer is not a single disease-several distinct subtypes exist with different origins, risk factors, genetic mutations, biological behaviors, and prognoses. However, persistent questions have impeded progress toward improving the prevention, early detection, treatment, and management of ovarian cancers. Failure to significantly improve morbidity and mortality during the past several decades is likely due to several factors, including the lack of research being performed by specific disease subtype, lack of definitive knowledge of the cell of origin and disease progression, and incomplete understanding of genetic and non-genetic risk factors. Ovarian Cancers examines the state of the science in ovarian cancer research, identifies key gaps in the evidence base and the challenges to addressing those gaps, considers opportunities for advancing ovarian cancer research, and examines avenues for translation and dissemination of new findings and communication of new information to patients and others. This study makes recommendations for public- and private-sector efforts that could facilitate progress in reducing the incidence of morbidity and mortality from ovarian cancers.

Download or read book Memoir of a Debulked Woman Enduring Ovarian Cancer written by Susan Gubar and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2012-04-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 2012 New York Times Book Review Notable Book "Staggering, searing…Ms. Gubar deserves the highest admiration for her bravery and honesty." —New York Times Diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2008, Susan Gubar underwent radical debulking surgery, an attempt to excise the cancer by removing part or all of many organs in the lower abdomen. Her memoir mines the deepest levels of anguish and devotion as she struggles to come to terms with her body’s betrayal and the frightful protocols of contemporary medicine. She finds solace in the abiding love of her husband, children, and friends while she searches for understanding in works of literature, visual art, and the testimonies of others who suffer with various forms of cancer. Ovarian cancer remains an incurable disease for most of those diagnosed, even those lucky enough to find caring and skilled physicians. Memoir of a Debulked Woman is both a polemic against the ineffectual and injurious medical responses to which thousands of women are subjected and a meditation on the gifts of companionship, art, and literature that sustain people in need.

Download or read book You Have Ovarian Cancer written by and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-24 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Georgia Ovarian Cancer Alliance (GOCA) was formed in 1998 by a group of Atlanta area ovarian cancer patients and survivors. They met at the St. Joseph's Gynecologic Cancer Support Group. They each had their individual story, but one common element existed in each story. They knew nothing about ovarian cancer before they were diagnosed. This lack of information was the catalyst for them to begin pooling their energies and passions with the intent to bring awareness of ovarian cancer and early detection to the forefront of women's health issues. Their initial battle cry of "Awareness. Knowledge. and Action" with the desire to educate Georgia's women, of all ages, their families, and healthcare providers about the risks and symptoms of ovarian cancer is still very much the focus of GOCA today. Since the beginning, GOCA has transformed from an idea, hatched at a founder's dining room table, into a very strong state-wide based non-profit organization, led by individuals touched by ovarian cancer alongside business leaders. Through our Education & Awareness and Community Outreach Program in conjunction with a strong statewide base of supporters, volunteers, partners, and sponsors we continue to reach as many people as possible with this life saving information. GOCA Mission Statement To increase awareness and educate Georgia's women, of all ages, and their families as well as the healthcare community about the risks and symptoms of ovarian cancer that may lead to earlier detection and treatment.
