Detailed explanation of the main causes of gastric cancer

The incidence of gastric cancer is currently quite high in my country. Many people do not know much about gastric cancer and do not go to the hospital for treatment in time, which delays the disease. Understanding the cause of gastric cancer is very helpful for the treatment of gastric cancer. So what are the causes of gastric cancer? The following is a detailed answer from relevant experts.

(I) Environmental factors The obvious differences in incidence rates in different countries and regions are related to environmental factors, the most important of which is dietary factors.

Salt may be one of the causes of exogenous gastric cancer. Countries where residents consume more salt also have a higher incidence of gastric cancer. Nitrosamine compounds have successfully induced gastric cancer in animals. After rice is processed, it is coated with talcum powder, which has chemical properties and structure similar to asbestos fibers. The above substances are all considered carcinogenic.

(ii) Genetic factors: The incidence of gastric cancer is higher in some families. Some data show that gastric cancer is more common in people with blood type A than in those with blood type O.

(III) Immune factors: People with low immune function have a higher incidence of gastric cancer. This may be due to the body's immune dysfunction and decreased immune surveillance of cancer, which plays a certain role in the occurrence of gastric cancer.

The above is an introduction to the causes of gastric cancer. I believe everyone should have a certain understanding of gastric cancer. If you want to know more about gastric cancer, please consult online experts.
