We analyzed the role of reproductive factors on the risk of endometrial cancer using data from a case-control study conducted in Italy. Cases were 752 women with histologically confirmed endometrial cancer F75 years of age. Controls were 2,606 patients F75 years of age admitted for acute, non-gyneco

## Abstract Several epidemiologic studies have reported a protective effect of oral contraceptives (OCs) on ovarian cancer. However, there remain open issues, including better quantification of timeβrelated factors such as time since last use, age at first use and time since first use. We performed
This study evaluated the combined effect of a family history of breast cancer and each of three reproductive factors on breast cancer risk in the sisters of 404 breast cancer patients. The patients had a family history of breast cancer in a sister and mother or in two sisters. Risks were highest in
BACKGROUND. Lobular neoplasia (LN), also known as lobular carcinoma in situ, is an incidental histologic finding in tissue removed at breast surgery. Patients with LN are known to be predisposed to develop invasive or intraductal carcinoma (CAI. This study investigates factors that influence the can
We evaluated reproductive function in 27 male long-term survivors of childhood cancer treated during the prepubertal and pubertal period. Sperm samples were obtained from 23 patients; four who refused to provide specimens indicated that they had fathered normal healthy children. Thirteen patients we
