Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Possible signs and symptoms include a lump, abnormal bleeding, prolonged cough, unexplained weight loss, and a change in bowel movements. There are over 100 types of cancers affect humans. The risk of developing certain cancers can be reduced by not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, not drinking too much alcohol, eating plenty of vegetables, fruits and whole grains, vaccination against certain infectious diseases, not eating too much processed and red meat and avoiding too much sunlight exposure. Cancer is often treated with some combination of radiation therapy, surgery, chemotherapy and targeted therapy. The majority of cancers, some 90–95% of cases, are due to genetic mutations from environmental and lifestyle factors. The remaining 5–10% are due to inherited genetics.

A disorder involving build-up of fatty material and calcium deposition in the arterial wall. It results in partial or complete occlusion of the arterial lumen.
Chronic inflammation is a slow, long-term inflammation lasting for prolonged periods of several months to years. Chronic inflammation can damage healthy cells, tissues, and organs. The main causes of the chronic inflammation includes the untreated causes of acute inflammation, such as an infection or injury, an autoimmune disorder and a long-term exposure to irritants, such as industrial chemicals or polluted air.
A disorder characterized by laboratory test results that indicate an elevation in the concentration of blood sugar. It is usually an indication of diabetes mellitus or glucose intolerance. (NCI CTCAE)
