To examine whether fatty-food consumption modifies lungcancer risk, a case-control study involving 377 patients with lung cancer and 377 controls was conducted in Uruguay. The study was restricted to men. Dietary patterns were assessed in detail using a 64-item food-frequency questionnaire, which al

## Abstract We performed an analysis of potential epidemiological risk factors for lung cancer using data from 280 cases and 242 hospitalβbased controls, all lifetime never smokers (those who had smoked <100 cigarettes in their lifetimes) and frequency matched on age, gender and ethnicity. The data
## Abstract We evaluated the impact of recreational and occupational physical activity on ovarian cancer risk using data from a populationβbased caseβcontrol study of 442 cases with histologically confirmed incident ovarian cancer and 2,135 controls aged 20β76 years, conducted in 1994β1997 in Canad
Smoking is the only generally accepted risk factor for pancreatic cancer. Reproductive history has in recent studies been associated with pancreatic cancer, but with contradictory results. In order to evaluate a possible association between age at first birth and the number of births and pancreatic
Although it has been hypothesized that carbon black exposure may carry an excess risk of lung cancer, evidence to date is insufficient to assess the hypothesis properly. The relationship between workplace exposure to carbon black and lung cancer risk was examined in a population-based case-control s
## Abstract Based on the important role of microRNA (miRNA) biosynthesis genes in carcinogenesis, we hypothesized that polymorphisms in the miRNA biosynthesis genes may modulate susceptibility to lung cancer. To test this hypothesis, we conducted a twoβstage study to evaluate the associations betwe
