A comparative case-referent study was conducted using data from the Hospital-Based Epidemiologic Research Program at Aichi Cancer Center (HERPACC) (Nagoya, Japan), with the aim of clarifying the effect of family history on gastric cancer by subsite. Our study comprised 995 histologically confirmed g
The worldwide rates for histology-and subsite-specific types of esophageal and gastric cancer reveal strikingly divergent patterns. The contribution of environmental and genetic factors has been explored in several high-incidence areas, but data on genetic influences are scarce for Western countries
To assess the clinical implications of the tumor volume doubling time of gastric smooth muscle tumors based on a comparison with the histologic findings, seven tumors (four leiomyomas and three leiomyosarcomas) were followed up by consecutive upper gastrointestinal studies between March 1985 and Dec
There are recent data to suggest that risk factors for breast cancer may differ according to whether the tumor expresses detectable levels of the estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR). While a family history of breast cancer is one of the most consistent predictors of the disease, we
