Cigarette smoking increases colorectal cancer risk
New study results strengthen the evidence that people who smoke cigarettes over a long period of time have an increased risk for developing colorectal cancer, even after adjusting for other risk factors. view more (2009-12-03)
Weight loss improves bladder control in women with prediabetes
Losing a modest amount of weight through dietary changes and increased physical activity reduces the occurrence of urinary incontinence (UI) in women with prediabetes, a condition in which blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not yet diabetic. view more (2006-01-27)
Virtual colonoscopy reveals diseases outside the colon, as well
Computed tomographic (CT) colonography, known as virtual colonoscopy, can be used to diagnose significant medical problems in organs outside the colon, according to a new study conducted at the San Francisco VA Medical Center (SFVAMC). view more (2005-07-27)
