	Neoplasia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Neoplasia (new growth in Greek) is abnormal, disorganized growth in a tissue or organ, usually forming a distinct mass.
		Neoplasia is the correct, scientific term for diseases commonly called "cancer", "tumor" or "growth".
		Neoplasia is also the name of a scientific journal for oncology research.

	Neoplasia
		Neoplasia is interested in studies describing new molecular and genetic findings relating to the neoplastic phenotype and in laboratory and clinical studies demonstrating creative applications of advances in the basic sciences to risk assessment, prognostic indications, detection, diagnosis, and treatment.
		Neoplasia is committed to ensuring a thorough, fair, and rapid review and publication schedule to further its mission of serving both the scientific and clinical communities by disseminating important data and ideas in cancer research.
		Neoplasia encourages the free exchange of all clones, cell lines, and biological reagents described in its pages to facilitate the progress of research in order to ultimately provide those fighting neoplastic diseases with new diagnostic, preventative and therapeutic options.

	Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 - WrongDiagnosis.com
		A type of multiple endocrine neoplasia characterized by a virtually 100% incidence of medullary thyroid carcinoma, a 50% incidence of pheochromocytoma, and a lesser incidence of parathyroid adenomas associated with hyperparathyroidism.
		Although many different types of hormone-producing tumors are associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia, the most common sign of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 is a form of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma.
		Most cases of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 are inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, which means affected people may have affected siblings and relatives in successive generations (such as parents and children).

	Multiple endocrine neoplasia - Genetics Home Reference (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Multiple endocrine neoplasia is part of a group of disorders that affect the body's network of hormone-producing glands (the endocrine system).
		The two major forms of multiple endocrine neoplasia are called type 1 and type 2; they are often confused because of their similar names.
		Among the subtypes of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2, type 2A is the most common form, followed by familial medullary thyroid cancer.

	Neoplasia
		Neoplasia: A basic pathologic process that accounts for cancers and benign tumors; neoplasia results from altered genes within a cell causing it to divide continuously and to transmit the altered genes to newly produced cells producing a neoplasm; treatment usually involves eradication of the neoplasm by surgery, radiation, or chemicals.
		While it is unlikely that a single cause or a single pattern of development will be uncovered, research on chromosomes and genes promises knowledge of risk factors, identification of preventive measures, and recognition of cancers in their earliest stages.
		An additional curse of sarcomas is their tendency to occur in the young; most sarcomas arise in persons under the age of 40 years.

	BioMed Central \| Full text \| Lifestyle as a predictor for colonic neoplasia in asymptomatic individuals
		For men and women combined, the association between BMI and advanced neoplasia was not significant neither in the univariate nor the multivariate analyses (Tables 2 and 3).
		An association has been proposed between attendance rate and the prevalence of colorectal neoplasia among attendees [21], where those that are conscious of a familial risk may be the first to attend for screening, and the most reluctant ones may be those with the highest lifestyle-risk of CRC.
		This is because there is an age-dependent proximal shift in the distribution of colorectal neoplasia, verified in the NORCCAP trial, reporting that age ≥60 years was significantly associated with the presence of proximal advanced neoplasia [25].

	Multiple endocrine neoplasia - WrongDiagnosis.com
		Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) is a group of rare diseases caused by genetic defects that lead to hyperplasia (abnormal multiplication or increase in the number of normal cells in normal arrangement in a tissue) and hyperfunction (excessive functioning) of two or more components of the endocrine system.
		This means that Multiple endocrine neoplasia, or a subtype of Multiple endocrine neoplasia, affects less than 200,000 people in the US population.
		With a diagnosis of Multiple endocrine neoplasia, it is also important to consider whether there is an underlying condition causing Multiple endocrine neoplasia.

	Human Papillomavirus Infection and Anal Neoplasia -- BETA:9/97 - AEGIS
		ASIL is one of several types of anogenital neoplasia that are of potential concern to people with HIV.
		A diagnosis of any form of anogenital neoplasia means that new growth (neoplasia) has been detected in the normal tissue (epithelium) of the genitalia or anus.
		Those types that cause anogenital infection and neoplasia are usually acquired through sexual contact with external or internal lesions.

	Anogenital Neoplasia and HIV
		The pathogenesis of anogenital neoplasia in HIV-infected patients may not only be related to the generalized impairment of cell-mediated immunity caused by HIV but also may be due to a direct interaction between the two viruses.
		During each study visit in the UCSF Anal Neoplasia Study, subjects first have a Pap smear (Table 1) samples are taken for HPV DNA, and then anoscopy is performed with acetic acid and magnification using a colposcope.
		The observation of increased anogenital neoplasia in patients who are iatrogenically immunocompromised underscores the role of the immune response to HPV infection.

	Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Syndromes: Hormonal Disorders: Merck Manual Home Edition
		Multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes are rare conditions in which several endocrine glands develop noncancerous (benign) or cancerous (malignant) tumors or grow excessively without forming tumors.
		Multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes occur in three patterns, called types 1, 2A, and 2B, although the types occasionally overlap.
		Because about half of the children of people with a multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome inherit the disease, screening is important for early diagnosis and treatment.
