Precautions for the prevention of kidney cancer

Kidney cancer is a very scary disease, and it is also a disease that we should know about. In fact, many people do not know which aspects to take corresponding preventive measures. In this case, they often get kidney cancer without knowing it, leading to some serious consequences. Here I will tell you how to prevent kidney cancer.

1. Smoking: A large number of prospective observations have found that smoking is positively correlated with the incidence of kidney cancer. The relative risk factor (RR) of kidney cancer in smokers is 2, and the risk of kidney cancer increases for smokers who have smoked for more than 30 years and smoke unfiltered cigarettes.
(ii) Obesity and hypertension: A prospective study published in the New England Journal of Medicine on November 2, 2000 showed that high body mass index (BMI) and hypertension are two independent factors associated with an increased risk of kidney cancer in men.
(III) Occupation: There are reports that workers in metal shops, newspaper printers, coke workers, dry cleaners, and petrochemical workers have an increased risk of kidney cancer and death.
(iv) Radiation: According to statistics, 26 of 124 tumors caused by the use of a weak alpha particle radiation source were confined to the kidneys. However, there are no reports on the correlation between radiation exposure and kidney cancer in radiation workers and victims of atomic bomb explosions.
