Type 2 Diabetes in Relation to Hip Bone Density, Area, and Bone Turnover in Swedish Men and Women: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Cadmium in Diet and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in Women

Fruits and vegetables intake and gastric cancer risk: A pooled analysis within the Stomach cancer Pooling Project.

Ana Ferro, +50 more

An estrogen‐associated dietary pattern and breast cancer risk in the Swedish Mammography Cohort
