Editing Exogeny (section)

=== Medicine and medical treatments ===
In [[medicine]], exogenous factors are seen in both [[pathogens]] and [[therapeutics]]. Exogenous factors can be included in the type of [[obesity]] where there is an imbalance of food and [[metabolism]], in which one consumes a much greater amount than the human body can handle.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Bauer |first=Julius |date=1941 |title=Obesity: Its Pathogenesis, Etiology and Treatment |url=https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/547135 |journal=[[Archives of Internal Medicine]] |volume=67 |issue=5 |pages=968–994 |doi=10.1001/archinte.1941.00200050076006 |via=JAMA Internal Medicine|url-access=subscription }}</ref> On the opposite end, endogenous obesity refers to obesity caused by disorders or issues outside an imbalance of food intake itself, which include [[genetic disorder]]s, interruption of [[thyroid]] functions, and other syndromic disorders.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Mason |first1=Kelly |last2=Page |first2=Laura |last3=Gumus Balikcioglu |first3=Pinar |date=September 10, 2014 |title=Screening for Hormonal, Monogenic, and Syndromic Disorders in Obese Infants and Children |journal=[[Pediatric Annals]] |volume=43 |issue=9 |pages=e218–e224 |doi=10.3928/00904481-20140825-08 |pmc=4369917 |pmid=25198446}}</ref>

In relation to cancer, [[carcinogens]] are exogenous factors, in which these are made up of various factors (chemical, biological, physical), causing cancer after having entering through several routes of the body.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Irigaray |first1=Philippe |last2=Belpomme |first2=Dominique |date=February 2010 |title=Basic properties and molecular mechanisms of exogenous chemical carcinogens |url=https://academic.oup.com/carcin/article/31/2/135/2477012 |journal=[[Carcinogenesis (journal)|Carcinogenesis]] |volume=31 |issue=2 |pages=135–148 |doi=10.1093/carcin/bgp252 |pmid=19858070 |via=[[Oxford Academic]]|doi-access=free }}</ref>
