Family history (FH) is an important indicator of a woman's future risk of developing breast cancer. Using data collected in a large population-based case-control study (6705 cases and 9341 controls), we examined the associations of breast cancer with known risk factors in women reporting a fi...

Finally, it needs to be reminded that having one or more risk factors does not necessarily mean that you will get breast cancer, but statistically, people with the above risk factors are more at risk of breast cancer than the general population. It is recommended that women with the above r...

Third, among previous studies, there is a failure to control for important cancer and allergy risk factors such as smoking and gender [1]. We studied three biological markers of allergic disease to operationalize allergy, whereas the majority of previous studies used questionnaires or investigated ...
1·6 million of the deaths attributable to these risk factors were in men and 0·83 million in women. Smoking, alcohol use, and low fruit and vegetable intake were the leading risk factors for death from cancer worldwide and in low-and-middle-income countries. In high-income countries, ...
An increased risk of non-melanoma skin cancer during TNF-inhibitor treatment in psoriasis patients compared to rheumatoid arthritis patients probably relates to disease-related factors. J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol. 2015;29(4):752-760. doi:10.1111/jdv.12675 PubMedGoogle ScholarCrossref 44...
A hospital-based case-control study was conducted over 4 years in Southern France to assess the pattern of established risk factors for breast cancer and to examine its variation according to age at diagnosis. Cases studied (450) were women admitted to the Montpellier Cancer Institute, with histo...

Cancer risk is determined by a complex interplay of environmental and heritable factors. Polygenic risk scores (PRS) provide a personalized genetic susceptibility profile that may be leveraged for disease prediction. Using data from the UK Biobank (413,753 individuals; 22,755 incident cancer cases),...
