In the 3 issues of Volume 8 published during the year 2020, a total of 30 articles were published (at an average of 15 articles per issue) of which, articles were published from authors all around the world. A total of 32 research scientists from all over the world reviewed the 30 articles published in volume 8. The average publication lag time of an article was further reduced to 2-3 weeks. Journal of Nursing and Health Studies also announces its new association with Insight Medical Publishing Group for Archiving, Journal maintenance, financial purpose, and support. However, the journal will be running its original website  https://www.imedpub.com/ parallel for Editorial and review work process so as to maintain its highest standard of scientific work. I take this opportunity to acknowledge the contribution of editors and Associate Editors, during the final editing of articles published and the support rendered by the editorial assistants.

Chemotherapy in Cancer Treatment

In the history of knowledge of cancers that surgery was considered a modality of treatment of cancers. Roman physician Celsus had noted that despite surgery the cancer seems to come back. Galen wrote about techniques of surgery for cancers. Surgery then was very primitive with many complications, including blood loss. Surgery for cancers flourished in the 19th and early 20th centuries after advancement of anesthesia.

A tumor, also known as a neoplasm, is an abnormal mass of tissue which may be solid or fluid-filled. A tumor does not mean cancer - tumors can be benign (not cancerous), pre-malignant (pre-cancerous), or malignant (cancerous). Some people with cancer will have only one treatment. But most people have a combination of treatments, such as surgery with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. When you need treatment for cancer, you have a lot to learn and think about. It is normal to feel overwhelmed and confused. But, talking with your doctor and learning about the types of treatment you may have can help you feel more in control.

Cancer research is basic research into cancer in order to identify causes and develop strategies for prevention, diagnosis, treatments and cure. Cancer research ranges from epidemiology, molecular bioscience to the performance of clinical trials to evaluate and compare applications of the various cancer treatment. These applications include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy,Immunotherapy and combined treatment modalities such as chemo-radiotherapy. Starting in the mid-1990s, the emphasis in clinical cancer research shifted towards therapies derived from biotechnology research, such as cancer immunotherapy and gene therapy.
