Certain criterion states that in cases where mothers who do not smoke during pregnancy. In their children 1.4 per 1000 children end up with cancer, whereas, the mothers whom smoke 0.9 per 1000 of those children (can you believe that smokers children are less likely to get cancer versus non smokers children.)
An The University of Louisville studied 410 pregnant women in 1996, measuring levels of three tobacco carcinogens in the mothers and their newborns. The three carcinogens measured where benzo(a)pyrene (which causes lung and skin cancer), 4-aminobiphenyl (which causes bladder cancer) and acrylonitrile (which causes liver cancer.)
This study found levels of these three chemicals were four to five times higher in the passive smokers newborns than in the non smokers infants, they were 10 to 20 times higher in heavy cigarette smokers babies. In the United States, cancer will be diagnosed each year in an estimated 8,000 children below the age of 15 years old; accounting for about 10 percent all deaths in childhood. Miracles for KIDS!!!
What we do know between 1975 and 2002, childhood cancer mortality has decreased by more than 50%. However, what accounts for 20% of all these childhood cancer cases are soft cell sarcomas. Sarcoma cancer are found in soft tissues of all parts of the body. http://www.nlmsf.org/
The soft tissues of the body including the muscles, connective tissues (tendons), bone, vessels that carry blood or nymph, joints and in body fat. A lump or swelling in the part of the body may appear in the person that does have a soft tissue sarcoma (this year alone about 5,000 people will be diagnosed with this type of malignancy.)
