ENG: Colorectal cancer diagnose was 3,3X more likely in people under 40 diagnosed with ADN mutation related to colibactin bacteria.

Early exposure to this bacteria could make colorectal cancer much more prevalent in young adults. Previous studies have associated it to ultra processed food, sugar loaded drinks and alcohol.

ESP: "Si alguien adquiere una de estas mutaciones provocadas por la bacteria colibactina antes de los 10 años, podría adelantar décadas en desarrollo de cáncer colorrectal y padecerlo a los 40 años en lugar de a los 60", afirma Alexandrov.

Investigaciones anteriores han identificado varias asociaciones que podrían estar contribuyendo al aumento del cáncer colorrectal a una edad relativamente temprana. Los estudios han señalado, por ejemplo, los alimentos ultraprocesados y el exceso de bebidas azucaradas o alcohólicas.

No, Mr. President — Sexual Violence Isn’t an Immigration Issue

"When I read President Trump’s proclamation for Sexual Assault Awareness Month, my jaw dropped. On one hand, after he failed to recognize Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month in February, it was positive to see any recognition at all.

"On the other . . . it felt more like I was reading a tirade against immigrants rather than an acknowledgment that sexual assault continues to be a prevalent issue on an international scale. It’s hard to watch Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month be used not to center survivors, but to push a political narrative that misplaces blame and distracts from the root causes of violence.
