NAT2 slow acetylation, GSTM1 null genotype, and risk of bladder cancer: results from the Spanish Bladder Cancer Study and meta-analyses.
Montserrat Garcia-Closas,Núria Malats,Debra T. Silverman,Mustafa Dosemeci,Manolis Kogevinas,David W. Hein,Adonina Tardón,Consol Serra,Alfredo Carrato,Reina García-Closas,Josep Lloreta,Gemma Castaño-Vinyals,Meredith Yeager,Robert Welch,Stephen J. Chanock,Nilanjan Chatterjee,Sholom Wacholder,Claudine Samanic,Montserrat Torà,Francisco J. Martín Fernández,Francisco X. Real,Nathaniel Rothman +21 more
TL;DR: The GSTM1 null genotypes increases the overall risk of bladder cancer, and the NAT2 slow-acetylator genotype increases risk particularly among cigarette smokers, providing compelling evidence for the role of common polymorphisms in the aetiology of cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Long-term THM exposure was associated with a twofold bladder cancer risk, with an odds ratio of 2.10 (95% confidence interval: 1.09, 4.02) for average household THM levels of >49 versus < or =8 micro g/liter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preventing occupational stress in healthcare workers
TL;DR: There was low-quality evidence that CBT with or without relaxation was no more effective in reducing stress symptoms than no intervention at one month follow-up in six studies, but one study showed that mental relaxation reduced stress more effectively than attending a course on theory analysis and another that it was more effective than just relaxing in a chair.

TL;DR: Two new regions associated with bladder cancer on chromosomes 22q13.1, 19q12 and 2q37.1 are identified and previous candidate associations for the GSTM1 deletion and a tag SNP for NAT2 acetylation status are validated, and interactions with smoking in both regions are found.

TL;DR: Using a combined analysis of 11 case‐control studies, this work accurately measured the relationship between cigarette smoking and bladder cancer in men and found there was a linear increasing risk of bladder cancer with increasing duration of smoking.
