Journal ArticleDOI
Risk of malignancy among patients with rheumatic conditions.
TL;DR: The aim was to quantify and compare risks for site‐specific malignancy among hospitalized patients with RA, osteoarthritis (OA) and other rheumatic conditions in a nationwide, population‐based cohort, and support several previous findings regarding the incidence of hematopoietic and colorectal malignancies in RA patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Excess second head and neck cancer risk was observed 10 years after diagnosis with lymphohaematopoietic cancers, and patterns were consistent with the notion that the pattern of cancer in survivors of head andneck cancer is dominated by the effect of tobacco smoking and alcohol drinking.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Genotype data provide additional information that complements age, gender and FH as risk factors, but individualised genetic risk prediction is not currently feasible, the modelling exercise suggests public health potential since it is possible to stratify the population into CRC risk categories, thereby informing targeted prevention and surveillance.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a multicenter study of 13 population-based cancer registries in Europe, Australia, Canada, and Singapore was conducted to assess the risk of second primary cancers following a first primary esophageal cancer as well as the risk for esophages cancer as a second primary, following first primary cancers of other sites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rising incidence of prostate cancer in Scotland: increased risk or increased detection?
TL;DR: To assess the extent to which the increasing incidence of prostate cancer in Scotland can be explained by increased detection, particularly through transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and use of the Prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) test.
