Association between endometriosis and risk of histological subtypes of ovarian cancer: a pooled analysis of case-control studies.

Celeste Leigh Pearce, +50 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the association between self-reported endometriosis and risk of ovarian cancer was found to be a risk factor for epithelial ovarian cancer; however, whether this risk extends to all invasive histological subtypes or borderline tumours is not clear.
Journal ArticleDOI

Talcum powder, chronic pelvic inflammation and NSAIDs in relation to risk of epithelial ovarian cancer.

TL;DR: On balance chronic inflammation does not play a major role in the development of ovarian cancer, and regular use of aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs was inversely associated with risk of LMP mucinous ovarian tumours only.
Journal ArticleDOI

Obesity and risk of ovarian cancer subtypes: evidence from the Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium

TL;DR: Obesity appears to increase risk of the less common histological subtypes of ovarian cancer, it does not increaserisk of high-grade invasive serous cancers, and reducing BMI is therefore unlikely to prevent the majority of Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium deaths.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aspirin, Nonaspirin Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drug, and Acetaminophen Use and Risk of Invasive Epithelial Ovarian Cancer: A Pooled Analysis in the Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium

TL;DR: It is suggested that the same aspirin regimen proven to protect against cardiovascular events and several cancers could reduce the risk of ovarian cancer 20% to 34% depending on frequency and dose of use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Obesity and ovarian cancer survival: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: Women with ovarian cancer who are obese appear to have slightly worse survival than non-obese women, but there is a large amount of inter-study variation, which means that no solid conclusions can be drawn.
