  Seven types of foods that patients with colorectal cancer should avoid. According to the 2007 Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) 298(7):754).  "Conclusions: Higher intake of a Western dietary pattern may be associated with a higher risk of recurrence and mortality among patients with stage III colon cancer treated with surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. Further studies are needed to delineate which components of such a diet show the strongest association." The early treatment rate of colorectal cancer is very high. If it does not recur within 5 years, it means that the cancer has a chance to be cured.

New study: Antihypertensive drugs will not increase the risk of COVID-19 infection

A new study provides reliable evidence for global hypertension patients. Some experts worry that treatment of hypertension drugs may increase the risk of COVID-19, but it will not happen in fact.

The research team of the New York University School of Medicine analyzed 12,594 people who were screened for COVID-19; 5,894 (46.8%) of them tested positive, and of the 4,357 patients with a history of hypertension, 2,573 ( 59.1%) were positive. However, after excluding age and other factors, the analysis of patients' medication showed that there is no substantial correlation between a single drug and the positive rate and the probability of severe illness.

Under normal circumstances, when the blood pressure drops, the human body will trigger a series of mechanisms to increase blood pressure through RAAS, including angiotensin I which is converted into angiotensin II by ACE, which further raises blood pressure.

Harmony Reynolds, deputy director of the New York University School of Medicine's Center for Cardiovascular Research, who led the study, said the study pointed out that taking blood pressure lowering drugs does not increase the risk of COVID-19 infection.
