About this Research Topic
The aim of this Research Topic is to compile the most contemporary information concerning the incidence, mortality, and risk determinants associated with oral cancer onset. This endeavor seeks to construct a compendium that not only facilitates forthcoming investigations but also contributes to the formulation of evidence-based public policy initiatives.
As part of our commitment to advancing scientific knowledge in the field of oncology, we invite researchers, clinicians, and experts to contribute their original research articles, reviews, mini-reviews, and perspectives papers to our upcoming special issue.
Potential topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
1. Trends in Cancer Incidence and Mortality: Explore the latest trends in cancer occurrence and mortality rates across different populations, regions, and cancer types.
2. Emerging Risk Factors: Investigate newly identified risk factors contributing to the development of various cancers and their implications for prevention and intervention.
3. Disparities and Inequalities: Examine socio-economic, demographic, and geographical disparities in cancer incidence, mortality, and access to healthcare services.
4. Lifestyle and Environmental Factors: Analyze the impact of lifestyle choices, environmental exposures, and behavioral factors on cancer risk.
5. Role of Genetics and Epigenetics: Explore the interplay between genetic predisposition and epigenetic modifications in cancer susceptibility.
6. Innovative Preventive Strategies: Present novel approaches for cancer prevention based on a comprehensive understanding of risk factors and disease patterns.
