Esophageal cancer is one of the deadliest cancers.It can be treated when found early，but once it grows the chances of survival drop sharply.The researchers estimate that at least five hundred forty million people have the deficiency，about eight percent of the world's population.

　　Philip Brooks is a researcher at the National Institute in the United States.He says it is important to educate people about the link between the alcohol flushing effect and esophageal cancer.He says doctors should ask East Asian patients about their experiences with facial flushing after drinking alcohol.Those with a history of it should be advised to limit their alcohol use.They should also be warned that cigarette smoking works with the alcohol in a way that further increases the risk of esophageal cancer.
