Literature Review
The use of chemotherapy in cancer treatment: A literature Review In 2019, Khafaji explores the inorganic materials that can be used for chemotherapy, reporting the effectiveness of it in cancer treatment. The number of recoveries in patients with leukemia was used to examine the effectiveness of chemotherapy. Also, there were side effects brought about by the medication approach used. The nanoparticles within the skin are assumed to influence the brain’s functioning to improve the effectiveness of the medication. Health professionals merge the herein derived from the red blood cells and melanoma to develop a mixed biomimetic coating that can be used for the medication of leukemia. Cancer cells are more sensitive to conditions of high temperatures; this confirms the efficiency of the therapy.
Over the last years, nanotechnology has been applied in the medical field and specifically for cancer therapy. Health practitioners claim that the combination of chemo and photothermal therapy has been useful for treating leukemia patients. This is because it has resulted in many recoveries as well as minimal side effects. The fact that technology keeps on improving also promises leukemia patients recovery. This is because the machines used in chemotherapy are yet to be improved. The application of technology in the treatment of cancer has led to the use of inorganic nanomaterials.
There are some exceptional instances where chemotherapy does not assure leukemia patients of recovering from the ailment. Some of its associated side effects mostly influence this. Research confirms that for the chemotherapy to assure leukemia patients of recovering fully, it must be supplemented by other techniques such as radiotherapy and surgery. Drugs prescribed for cancer patients should not harm the cells that cancer affects. Chemotherapy is not a promising method for cancer treatment, hence driving the need to find other approaches that doctors can use to promote its effectiveness. The newly developed methods must be those that have common side effects, be sensitive, and confirm the medication’s success.
