Disease: suicide attempt
Question: for suicide attempt, risk factors?
Answer: Suicide can run in families. You may be more likely to try to take your own life if someone in your family has already done so.
You may also be at risk for suicidal ideation if you�re experiencing:
grief
a traumatic situation
a difficult struggle or challenge
depression
Seeking help early can help you reduce your risk for suicidal ideation and suicide.
Your risk of suicide might increase if you have:
a drug or alcohol abuse problem
a mental disorder or stress condition
chronic pain, terminal illness, or another medical situation in which you might feel hopeless
attempted suicide before
Being under the influence of drugs or alcohol can increase your risk for suicidal ideation and provide an added urge to go through with the act.
Disease: suicide attempt
Question: for suicide attempt, passive suicidal ideation?
Answer: Passive suicidal ideation is when a person desires death but has no specific plan to commit suicide.
If you�re experiencing passive suicidal ideation, your fantasies may involve dying in your sleep or having a fatal accident. You may believe that the world would be better off without you.
Passive doesn�t mean harmless. This train of thought has the potential to make you more likely to put yourself in harm�s way.
Even if passive suicidal ideation appears to be fleeting, the risk of a suicide attempt is very real. The line between passive and active suicidal ideation is blurry. The transition from one to the other can happen slowly or suddenly, and it�s not always obvious to the casual observer.
While someone might admit to wishing to die, they may deny making plans to do so. Warning signs that suicidal ideation has become active include giving away possessions, getting affairs in order, and saying goodbye to loved ones.
No one could ever predict with 100 percent certainty if someone will or will not take their own life. Even trained medical professionals can�t predict who will commit suicide. This is why you need to take threats or thoughts of suicide seriously.
An underlying condition such as substance abuse, major depression, or other mood disorders may lead to a preoccupation with dying. Added stressors such as the death of a loved one, divorce, or a job loss can trigger thoughts of hopelessness or worthlessness.
You shouldn�t take passive suicidal ideation lightly. It�s impossible to predict who�s likely to act on these thoughts. That�s why anyone who expresses passive suicidal ideation should be considered at risk for suicide.
See your doctor or psychiatrist for a careful evaluation and to get appropriate treatment.
Disease: suicide attempt
Question: for suicide attempt, medications and suicidal ideation?
Answer: Researchers have linked some medications with an increase in suicidal thoughts. Antidepressants have been linked to this behavior. This is particularly the case in the first weeks of taking the medication or after a change in dosage. Children and adolescents are at increased risk of this. Researchers in recent studies
are disputing this relationship.
If you begin having thoughts of suicide while taking an antidepressant, contact your doctor immediately. They can work with you to safely adjust your treatment plan.
Disease: suicide attempt
Question: for suicide attempt, how is suicidal ideation diagnosed??
Answer: If you have depression and are having thoughts of suicide, seek immediate medical help.
When you see your doctor, they�ll ask you many questions so they can assess the severity of your situation. Some questions your doctor may ask include:
How long have you had thoughts of suicide?
Do you have a history of depression?
How far have your thoughts of suicide gone? Have you come up with a plan?
Are you taking any medications? If so, what are they?
Do you use alcohol or drugs? If so, how often?
You should also expect your doctor to ask you to take a questionnaire. Your answers will help your doctor evaluate your mental health and develop a course of treatment.
Disease: suicide attempt
Question: for suicide attempt, how is suicidal ideation treated??
Answer: Your doctor will treat your depression according to the severity of your condition.
You doctor may prescribe antidepressants or anti-anxiety medication. These can help you manage your symptoms. You should also expect your treatment plan to include talking to a psychologist or counselor.
Ask your doctor or psychologist about ways to find additional support. They can recommend a support group. They may also have recommendations for how to get help if you use alcohol or drugs that may be contributing to your challenges.
If your risk of suicide is high, you may need to stay in an inpatient treatment facility. This is for your safety. You can receive your treatment at the facility and you won�t have access to items you may use to commit suicide.
Disease: suicide attempt
Question: for suicide attempt, what is the outlook??
Answer: Your outlook for depression or suicidal thoughts will improve with a strong network of friends and family. Talking with others about the challenges you�re facing may help. Getting outside and exercising can also help reduce depression, whether for the change of scenery or the good-feeling chemicals, or endorphins, that you experience during physical activity.
Treatment for suicidal ideation is available and can be successful. Ask for help if you need it.
Disease: suicide attempt
Question: for suicide attempt, how can you prevent suicidal ideation??
Answer: Knowing your triggers for depression and suicidal ideation can help you avoid or better manage these triggers in the future.
Keep track of situations you find stressful and how you handle them.
Keep a journal to help you understand and manage your feelings.
Find ways to relieve stress, such as physical activity or talking with a friend.
Seek help at the first signs of depression.
Call 911 if you�re having thoughts of suicide.
Remember that you�re not alone and resources are available to help you. Call a crisis line or prevention hotline to speak to someone who can help you find the support you need. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is 800-273-TALK.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: what is lymphoma? Tell me about lymphoma? What kind of disease is lymphoma? Can you elaborate on lymphoma? What can you tell me about lymphoma? Could you describe what lymphoma is? I�d like to know more about lymphoma. Can you help? What information do you have on lymphoma? Could you provide information on lymphoma?
Answer: Lymphoma refers to cancer that starts in the lymphatic system and affects white blood cells called lymphocytes.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, what is lymphoma??
Answer: The lymph system is a series of lymph nodes and vessels that move lymph fluid through the body. Lymph fluids contain infection-fighting white blood cells. Lymph nodes act as filters, capturing and destroying bacteria and viruses to prevent infection from spreading.
While the lymph system typically protects your body, lymph cells called lymphocytes can become cancerous.
Lymphoma definition
Lymphoma is a general term for cancer that starts in the lymph system. There are two categories of lymphoma: Hodgkin�s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin�s lymphoma.
Under these two categories, researchers have classified more than 70 types of lymphoma. Lymphomas can affect any portion of the lymphatic system, including:
bone marrow
thymus
spleen
tonsils
lymph nodes
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, what are the symptoms of lymphoma??
Answer: Lymphoma may not always cause symptoms in its early stages. Instead, a doctor may discover enlarged lymph nodes during a physical examination. These may feel like small, soft nodules under the skin. A person may feel the lymph nodes in the:
neck
upper chest
armpit
stomach
groin
Likewise, many of the symptoms of early lymphoma are not specific. That makes them easy to overlook. These common early symptoms of lymphoma include:
chills
cough
fatigue
enlarged spleen
fever
night sweats
itchy rash
shortness of breath
skin itching
stomach pain
loss of appetite
unexplained weight loss
Because the symptoms of lymphoma are often easily overlooked, it can be difficult to detect and then diagnose it in an early stage. It�s important to know how the symptoms may begin to change as the cancer worsens.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, what are the types of lymphoma??
Answer: The two major lymphoma types are Hodgkin�s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin�s lymphoma, or NHL. A pathologist in the 1800s named Dr. Thomas Hodgkin identified the cells in what is now called Hodgkin�s lymphoma.
Those with Hodgkin�s lymphoma have large cancerous cells called Reed-Sternberg (RS) cells. People with NHL don�t have these cells.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, non-hodgkin�s lymphoma?
Answer: According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), NHL is more common than Hodgkin�s lymphoma
, accounting for 4 percent of all cancers.
Many lymphoma types fall under each category. Doctors call NHL types by the cells they affect, and if the cells are fast- or slow-growing. NHL forms in either the B cells or T cells of the immune system.
According to the ACS, most NHL types affect B cells
. Types include:
B-cell lymphoma
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most aggressive type of NHL. This fast-growing lymphoma comes from abnormal B cells in the blood. It can be cured if treated, but if left untreated, it can lead to death. The stage of DLBCL helps determine your prognosis.
T-cell lymphoma
T-cell lymphoma is not as common as B-cell lymphoma; only 15 percent
of all NHL cases are this type. Several types of T-cell lymphoma exist.
Burkitt�s lymphoma
Burkitt�s lymphoma is a rare type of NHL that is aggressive and most common in people with compromised immune systems. This type of lymphoma is most common in children in sub-Saharan Africa, but it does occur in other parts of the world.
Follicular lymphoma
About 1 in 5
lymphomas diagnosed in the United States are follicular lymphoma. This type of NHL, which starts in the white blood cells, is most common in older individuals. The average age of diagnosis is 60. This lymphoma is also slow-growing, so treatments begin with watchful waiting.
Mantle cell lymphoma
This aggressive form of lymphoma is rare � only about 6 percent of NHL cases are this type. Mantle cell lymphoma is also more commonly diagnosed at a later stage, and it usually occurs in or involves the gastrointestinal tract or bone marrow.
Primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma
This subtype of B-cell lymphoma accounts for almost 10 percent of DLBCL cases. It predominantly affects women in their 20s and 30s.
Small lymphocytic lymphoma
Small lymphatic lymphoma (SLL) is a type of slow-growing lymphoma. The cancer cells of SLL are found mostly in the lymph nodes. SLL is identical to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), but with CLL, the majority of cancer cells are found in the blood and bone marrow.
Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma)
Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) is a rare type of cancer that accounts for just about 2 percent
of all lymphomas. It mostly affects older adults. Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia is a subtype of LPL. It causes the abnormal production of antibodies.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, hodgkin�s lymphoma?
Answer: Hodgkin�s lymphomas typically start in RS cells. While the main cause of Hodgkin�s lymphoma isn�t known, certain risk factors can increase your risk of developing this type of cancer. Hodgkin�s lymphoma types include:
Lymphocyte-depleted Hodgkin�s disease
This rare, aggressive type of lymphoma occurs in about 1 percent
of lymphoma cases, and it�s most commonly diagnosed in individuals in their 30s. In diagnostic tests, doctors will see normal lymphocytes with an abundance of RS cells.
Patients with a compromised immune system, such as those with HIV, are more likely to be diagnosed with this type of lymphoma.
Lymphocyte-rich Hodgkin�s disease
This type of lymphoma is more common in men, and it accounts for about 5 percent of Hodgkin�s lymphoma cases. Lymphocyte-rich Hodgkin�s disease is typically diagnosed at an early stage, and both lymphocytes and RS cells are present in diagnostic tests.
Mixed cellularity Hodgkin�s lymphoma
Like with lymphocyte-rich Hodgkin�s disease, mixed cellularity Hodgkin�s lymphoma contains both lymphocytes and RS cells. It�s more common � almost a quarter of Hodgkin�s lymphoma cases are this type � and it�s more prevalent in older adult men.
Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin�s disease
Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin�s disease (NLPHL) type of Hodgkin�s lymphoma occurs in about 5 percent of people with lymphoma, and it�s characterized by an absence of RS cells.
NLPHL is most common in people between the ages of 30 and 50, and it�s more common in males. Rarely, NLPHL can progress or transform into a type of aggressive NHL.
Nodular sclerosis Hodgkin�s lymphoma
This common type of lymphoma occurs in 70 percent of Hodgkin�s cases, and it�s more common in young adults than in any other group. This type of lymphoma occurs in lymph nodes that contain scar tissue, or sclerosis.
Fortunately, this type of lymphoma is highly treatable with a high cure rate.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, what are the causes of lymphoma??
Answer: Lymphoma occurs when white blood cells called lymphocytes grow out of control. The average life span of a lymphocytes cell is brief, and then the cell dies. In people with lymphoma, however, DNA changes inside the lymphocytes cells cause them to thrive and spread instead of dying.
It�s unclear what exactly causes this DNA change, and even though there are some risk factors connected with lymphoma, people without the risk factors can still develop these cancers.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, what are risk factors for lymphoma??
Answer: Most diagnosed lymphoma cases have no known cause. However, some people are considered to be at higher risk.
Non-Hodgkin�s lymphoma risk factors
Risk factors for NHL include:
Immunodeficiency. This could be due to a weak immune system from HIV or taking an immune system-suppressing drug after an organ transplant.
Autoimmune disease. People with certain autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and celiac disease, have an increased risk of lymphoma.
Age. Lymphoma is most common in older individuals. However, some types are more common in children and infants.
Sex. The overall risk of NHL is higher in men than women, but there are some types of NHL that are more likely to develop in women.
Ethnicity. White people in the United States are more likely to develop some types of lymphoma than African Americans or Asian Americans.
Infection. People who have had infections such as the human T-cell leukemia/lymphotropic virus (HTLV-1), Heliobacter pylori, hepatitis C, or the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) are associated with an increased risk.
Chemical and radiation exposure. Those exposed to chemicals in pesticides, fertilizers, and herbicides are also at increased risk. Nuclear radiation can also increase risks for developing NHL.
Body size. Individuals living with obesity may be at a higher risk of developing lymphoma, but more research is needed to understand this possible risk factor.
Hodgkin�s lymphoma risk factors
Risk factors for Hodgkin�s lymphoma include:
Age. More cases are diagnosed in people between the ages of 20 and 30 and in people over 55.
Sex. Men are more likely than women to develop this type of lymphoma.
Family history. If a sibling is diagnosed with this type of cancer, your risk of also developing it is higher.
Infectious mononucleosis. An EBV infection can cause mononucleosis. This infection can increase the risk of lymphoma.
Immunodeficiency. Individuals with HIV have a greater risk of developing lymphoma.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, how is lymphoma diagnosed??
Answer: Typically, a doctor will do a biopsy if they suspect lymphoma. This involves removing cells from an enlarged lymph node. A specialist known as a hematopathologist will examine the cells to determine if lymphoma cells are present and what cell type they are.
If the hematopathologist detects lymphoma cells, further testing can identify how far the cancer has spread. These tests can include
a chest X-ray
blood testing to check on white and red blood cell count
testing nearby lymph nodes or tissues
a bone marrow aspiration, where a small amount of liquid is taken from bone marrow and tested
a lumbar puncture (spinal tap), where a small amount of fluid from the spine is removed and tested
an abdominal ultrasound
Imaging scans, such as CT or MRI scans may also identify additional tumors or enlarged lymph nodes.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, treating lymphoma?
Answer: Typically, a number of medical specialists will collaborate to treat lymphoma:
Hematologists are doctors who specialize in blood, bone marrow, and immune cell disorders.
Oncologists treat cancerous tumors.
Pathologists may work with these doctors to assist in treatment planning and identify if a particular treatment is working.
Treatment plans depend on a few conditions, including the individual�s age and overall health, the type of lymphoma an individual has, and the cancer�s stage.
Doctors will stage a tumor to signify how far the cancerous cells may have spread. A stage 1 tumor is limited to a few lymph nodes, while a stage 4 tumor has spread to other organs, such as the lungs or bone marrow.
Doctors also grade NHL tumors by how fast they�re growing. These terms include:
low grade or indolent
intermediate grade or aggressive
high grade or highly aggressive
Treating Hodgkin�s lymphoma
Treatment for Hodgkin�s lymphoma usually includes radiation therapy to shrink and kill cancerous cells. Doctors may also prescribe chemotherapy medications to destroy cancerous cells.
Newer treatments also include immunotherapy therapy drugs like nivolumab (Opdivo) and pembrolizumab (Keytruda), which help the body�s T cells attack the cancer.
Treating Non-Hodgkin�s lymphoma
Chemotherapy and radiation are also used to treat NHL. Biological therapies that target cancerous B cells also can be effective. An example of this drug type includes nivolumab (Opdivo).
For some individuals, such as those with large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), CAR T cell therapy is part of the treatment. CAR T cell therapy uses the body�s own cells to treat the cancer: Immune cells are taken from the body, given with new proteins in a lab, and then infused back into the body.
In some instances of both Hodgkin�s lymphoma and NHL, a bone marrow or stem cell transplant may be used to build up healthy immune system cells. Doctors may harvest these cells or tissues before beginning chemotherapy and radiation treatments. Relatives may be able to donate bone marrow too.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, stages of lymphoma?
Answer: Both NHL and Hodgkin�s lymphoma can be classified into four stages. The state of lymphoma is determined by where the cancer is and how far it has or has not spread.
Stage 1. Cancer is in one lymph node or one organ site.
Stage 2. Cancer is in two lymph nodes near to one another and on the same side of the body, or the cancer is in one organ and nearby lymph nodes.
Stage 3. At this point, cancer is in lymph nodes on both sides of the diaphragm.
Stage 4. The cancer can be in an organ and spread beyond nearby lymph nodes. As NHL progresses, it may begin to spread. The most common sites for advanced NHL include the liver, bone marrow, and lungs.
While stage 4 lymphoma is advanced, it�s still treatable.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, lymphoma prognosis?
Answer: An individual�s prognosis after a lymphoma diagnosis depends on the stage and type of lymphoma. Many types of lymphoma are treatable and highly curable.
Some types of lymphoma are also slow-growing, or indolent. In this case, doctors may choose not to treat because the prognosis, even with the lymphoma, is still good in the long term.
According to the ACS
, the 5-year survival rate for stage 1 Hodgkin�s lymphoma is 91 percent; for stage 4, it�s 81 percent.
For NHL, the ACS
states the 5-year survival rate is 73 percent; the 10-year survival rate is 57 percent.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, lymphoma in children?
Answer: Many of the same risk factors for lymphoma in children are risk factors for adults, but certain types of lymphoma are more common in children.
For example, Hodgkin�s lymphoma is more common in children ages 15 and younger,
but the type of NHL that occurs in children is typically aggressive and fast-growing.
Children who have immune system deficiencies, such as HIV, or those who take immune-suppressing drugs are at an increased risk for lymphoma. Likewise, children who�ve undergone radiation therapy or chemotherapy have a higher risk of developing this type of cancer.
Disease: lymphoma
Question: for lymphoma, lymphoma vs. leukemia?
Answer: Both leukemia and lymphoma are types of blood cancer, and they share some common symptoms. However, their origins, treatments, and specific symptoms set the two types of cancer apart.
Symptoms
People with both lymphoma and leukemia experience fever and night sweats. However, leukemia is more likely to cause excessive bleeding, easy bruising, headaches, and increased infections. People with lymphoma are more likely to experience itchy skin, loss of appetite, unexplained weight loss, and swollen lymph nodes.
Origins
Leukemia typically begins in the bone marrow. It causes the marrow to produce too many white blood cells. Lymphoma begins in the lymph nodes, and it progresses as the abnormal white blood cells spread.
Treatment
Doctors may choose to practice watchful waiting for both lymphoma and leukemia. That�s because some types of these cancers are slow-growing and not aggressive.
If your doctor decides to treat either cancer, chemotherapy and radiation are used to treat both, but leukemia has two other common treatments. These are stem cell transplants and targeted drug therapy.
