Neuroendocrine Tumors

Neuroendocrine tumors are also referred to as neoplasms; these are abnormal growth of tissues that arise from endocrine (hormonal) cells and nervous systems. Many are harmless in the long run (benign), while some become progressively worse (malignant). These neuroendocrine tumors are often called carcinoid tumors which most commonly occur in the intestine. Journal Article is sometimes called a Scientific Article, a Peer-Reviewed Article, or a Scholarly Research Article. Together, journal articles in a particular field are often referred to as The Literature. Journal articles are most often Primary Research Articles. However, they can also be Review Articles. These types of articles have different aims and requirements. Sometimes, an article describes a new tool or method. Because articles in scientific journals are specific, meticulously cited and peer-reviewed, journal databases are the best place to look for information on previous research on your species. Without a background in the field, journal articles may be hard to understand - however, you do not need to understand an entire article to be able to get valuable information from it.
