The database says that a source associated a plant with the label “Esophagus cancer”. It does not show that the source used modern diagnostic criteria or that the plant was effective.

The plain-language definition is anchored to an exact Disease Ontology term. The historical use association remains a separate data claim.

Safety and self-care boundary

A suspected cancer, persistent unexplained lump, bleeding or progressive symptoms needs professional diagnosis; historical plant-use data is not a cancer treatment guide.

Plant identity, plant part, dose, preparation, route, interactions, pregnancy safety, toxicity and contraindications are not established by this association. Do not use it for self-diagnosis or self-medication.
