A working group of sixteen experts from seven countries re-evaluated the evidence of the carcinogenicity of betel-quid and areca-nut chewing and some areca-nut related nitrosamines. Betel-quid and areca-nut chewing are widely practised in many parts of Asia and in Asian-migrant communities elsewhere in the world. There are hundreds of millions of users worldwide. They evaluated betel quid with tobacco as carcinogenic to humans (Group 1) on the basis of sufficient evidence of an increased risk of cancer of the oral cavity, pharynx and oesophagus. The working group reviewed epidemiological studies of human cancer, mainly studies from India, Pakistan and Taiwan (China). Studies on betel quid with tobacco and areca nut with tobacco in experimental animals now also provide sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity. The working group also evaluated betel quid without tobacco as carcinogenic to humans (Group 1), on the basis of sufficient evidence of an increased risk of oral cancer. Studies on betel quid without tobacco and areca nut without tobacco in experimental animals now also provide sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity. Areca nut, a common ingredient of betel quid and many different chewing preparations, including those available commercially, has been observed to cause oral submucous fibrosis

This eighty-ninth volume of the IARC Monographs is the third and last of a series on tobacco-related agents. Volume 83 reported on the carcinogenicity of tobacco smoke and involuntary smoking (second-hand smoke or environmental tobacco smoke) (IARC 2004a). Volume 85 summarized the evidence on the carcinogenic risk of chewing betel quid with and without tobacco (IARC 2004b). That volume explored the variety of products chewed in South Asia and other parts of the word that contain areca nut in combination with other ingredients, often including tobacco. In this eighty-ninth volume, the carcinogenic risks associated with the use of smokeless tobacco, including chewing tobacco and snuff, are considered in a first monograph. The second monograph reviews some tobacco-specific nitrosamines. These agents were evaluated earlier in Volume 37 of the Monographs (IARC 1985) and information gathered since that time has been summarized and evaluated.

The book presents guides to the diagnosis and management of Oral Submucous Fibrosis, and includes a concise update on the recent evidence on aetiology and aetiopathogenesis to educate the reader on the prevention of the disease. Oral Submucous Fibrosis is a potentially malignant disorder that leads to the development of oral cancer. The first part of the book is dedicated to the epidemiology, the clinical features and the classification of Oral Submucous Fibrosis and associated conditions. The aetiology of Oral Submucous Fibrosis including lifestyle and genetic factors is discussed in the second part of the book followed by two chapters on the etiopathogenesis of the disease. Readers will find clear guidance on investigative techniques and the management of Oral Submucous Fibrosis. The last part of the book considers the connection between Areca nut and the disease and outlines methods of supporting areca nut chewers on habit cessation. The book is designed to serve as a comprehensive resource and reference in the oral health domain for learners at all levels, researchers, clinicians, and public health professionals. It will be of great value for students and trainees on any graduate program in dentistry.

The IARC Monographs series publishes authoritative independent assessments by international experts of the carcinogenic risks posed to humans by a variety of agents, mixtures and exposures. They are a resource of information for both researchers and national and international authorities. This volume is particularly significant because tobacco smoke not only causes more deaths from cancer than any other known agent; it also causes more deaths from vascular and respiratory diseases. This volume contains all the relevant information on both direct and passive smoking. It is organised by first looking at the nature of agent before collecting the evidence of cancer in humans. This is followed by carcinogenicity studies on animals and then any other data relevant to an evaluation.

Smokeless tobacco use is increasing throughout the U.S., especially among the most vulnerable of our citizens -- the children. With more than 30,000 new cases of oral cancer reported last year in the U.S. alone, it is time that use of smokeless tobacco take its rightful place next to cigarette smoking as a serious health risk that must be stopped. This report includes the following chapters: Clinical and Pathological Effects; Carcinogenesis; Nicotine Effects and Addiction; Prevention; Cessation: Recommendations for the Control of Smokeless Tobacco. Tables, photos and graphs.

This book contains the guidelines adopted by the Conference of the Parties. These seven guidelines cover a wide range of provisions of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, such as: the protection of public health policies with respect to tobacco control from commercial and other vested interests of the tobacco industry; protection from exposure to tobacco smoke; packaging and labelling of tobacco products; and tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship; and demand reduction measures concerning tobacco dependence and cessation. These guidelines are intended to help Parties to meet their obligations under the respective provisions of the Convention. They reflect the consolidated views of Parties on different aspects of implementation, their experiences and achievements, and the challenges faced. The guidelines also aim to reflect and promote best practices and standards that governments would benefit from in the treaty-implementation process.

The availability at IARC of cancer incidence and mortality data for periods of up to 35 years has enabled the systematic examination of time trends in cancer risk for most major cancers, and for different countries and regions of the world, using the same methodological approach for all cancers and for incidence and mortality data. This consistent set of analysis and commentary on most major cancers represents the most extensive compilation so far of data and analyses on global trends in cancer incidence and mortality.
