What factors affect the life expectancy of esophageal cancer

Eating habits, long-term smoking and drinking strong alcohol, long-term consumption of hot food, hard food without chewing, etc. are inevitably related to the cause of esophageal cancer. Carcinogens are also one of the causes of esophageal cancer. Precancerous lesions and other disease factors such as chronic esophageal inflammation, esophageal epithelial hyperplasia, esophageal mucosal damage, esophageal diverticulum, esophageal ulcer, esophageal leukoplakia, esophageal scar stenosis, hiatal hernia, achalasia, etc. are all considered to be precancerous lesions or precancerous diseases of esophageal cancer.

Esophageal cancer is a relatively common disease, because the incidence of esophageal cancer has been increasing in recent years. Experts say that if you want to prevent the occurrence of esophageal cancer, you must understand what factors cause esophageal cancer. This is also very important. Let's take a look at the experts' introduction.

Eating habits, long-term smoking and drinking strong alcohol, long-term consumption of hot food, hard food without chewing, etc. are inevitably related to the cause of esophageal cancer. Carcinogens are also one of the causes of esophageal cancer. Precancerous lesions and other disease factors such as chronic esophageal inflammation, esophageal epithelial hyperplasia, esophageal mucosal damage, esophageal diverticulum, esophageal ulcer, esophageal leukoplakia, esophageal scar stenosis, hiatal hernia, achalasia, etc. are all considered to be precancerous lesions or precancerous diseases of esophageal cancer.

( 1) Trace elements and malnutrition: The serum molybdenum, hair molybdenum, urine molybdenum and molybdenum in esophageal cancer tissues of people in high-incidence areas of esophageal cancer are all lower than normal. The soil and water in high-incidence areas of esophageal cancer lack molybdenum, and the anti-cancer effect of molybdenum has been confirmed by most scholars. Malnutrition, insufficient intake of animal protein and lack of vitamins AB2C are common characteristics of the diet of residents in high-incidence areas of esophageal cancer. Most high-incidence areas of malnutrition do not have a high incidence of esophageal cancer, so this cannot be a dominant factor.

( 3) Damage to the esophageal mucosa: Long-term consumption of hot and coarse food, strong tea, and spicy food such as chili peppers can cause damage to the esophageal mucosa, causing hyperplasia and metaplasia of the esophageal mucosa, which may also be one of the carcinogenic factors. Smoking and drinking strong alcohol are inevitably related to the onset of esophageal cancer. Various long-term esophagitis may be precancerous lesions of esophageal cancer.
