冲突和自然灾害可能对人们的生活造成重大破坏。媒体和新闻机构通常关注这些事件的直接后果，包括人员伤亡、环境和财产破坏以及救援工作。在本文中，我们将研究冲突（重点是中东）和全球自然灾害对已经诊断出癌症的患者以及在这些事件期间和之后被诊断出癌症的患者的影响。我们将回顾有限的文献，提供情况分析，并讨论医疗救援工作，政府准备，以及联合国机构和国际非政府组织的作用。我们还将讨论在长期流离失所和资源有限的情况下治疗癌症患者的问题。
Conflicts and natural disasters can cause major disruptions to people's lives. Media and news agencies usually focus on immediate consequences of these events, including loss of life and injuries, environmental and property destruction, and relief efforts. In this article, we will examine the effects of conflicts (focusing on in the Middle East) and global natural disasters on patients already diagnosed with cancer and on those who are diagnosed with cancer during and in the immediate aftermath of these events. We will review the limited literature, provide situational analysis, and discuss medical relief efforts, governmental readiness, and the role of United Nations agencies and international nongovernmental organizations. We will also discuss treatment of patients with cancer in the context of prolonged displacements and limited resources.
