Effects of Selenium Supplementation for Cancer Prevention in Patients With Carcinoma of the Skin: A Randomized Controlled Trial

TL;DR: Results from secondary end-point analyses support the hypothesis that supplemental selenium may reduce the incidence of, and mortality from, carcinomas of several sites and require confirmation in an independent trial of appropriate design before new public health recommendations regarding seenium supplementation can be made.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decreased incidence of prostate cancer with selenium supplementation: results of a double-blind cancer prevention trial.

TL;DR: Although selenium shows no protective effects against the primary endpoint of squamous and basal cell carcinomas of the skin, the selenum-treated group had substantial reductions in the incidence of prostate cancer, and total cancer incidence and mortality that demand further evaluation in well-controlled prevention trials.
Journal Article

Baseline characteristics and the effect of selenium supplementation on cancer incidence in a randomized clinical trial: a summary report of the Nutritional Prevention of Cancer Trial.

TL;DR: The Nutritional Prevention of Cancer trial continues to show a protective effect of selenium on cancer incidence, although not all site-specific cancers exhibited a reduction in incidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selenium supplementation, baseline plasma selenium status and incidence of prostate cancer: an analysis of the complete treatment period of the Nutritional Prevention of Cancer Trial

TL;DR: The results (to January 1996, the end of blinded treatment) of the Nutritional Prevention of Cancer (NPC) Trial, a randomized trial of selenium (200 µg daily) designed to test the hypothesis that seenium supplementation (SS) could reduce the risk of recurrent nonmelanoma skin cancer among 1312 residents of the Eastern USA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global Validation of Linear Model Assumptions.

TL;DR: An easy-to-implement global procedure for testing the four assumptions of the linear model and its performance is compared with three potential competitors, including a procedure based on the Box–Cox power transformation.
