Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary Fat and the Risk of Breast Cancer
Walter C. Willett,Meir J. Stampfer,Graham A. Colditz,Bernard Rosner,Charles H. Hennekens,Frank E. Speizer +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that a moderate reduction in fat intake by adult women is unlikely to result in a substantial reduction in the incidence of breast cancer, based on a limited period of follow-up.

David J. Hunter,Donna Spiegelman,Hans-Olov Adami,Lawrence Beeson,Piet A. van den Brandt,Aaron R. Folsom,Gary E. Fraser,R. Alexandra Goldbohm,Saxon Graham,Geoffrey R. Howe,Lawrence H. Kushi,James R. Marshall,Aidan McDermott,Anthony B. Miller,Frank E. Speizer,Alicja Wolk,Shiaw Shyuan Yaun,Walter C. Willett +17 more
TL;DR: The authors found no evidence of a positive association between total dietary fat intake and the risk of breast cancer, even among women whose energy intake from fat was less than 20 percent of total energy intake.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Prospective Study of Folate Intake and the Risk of Breast Cancer
Shumin M. Zhang,David J. Hunter,Susan E. Hankinson,Edward Giovannucci,Bernard Rosner,Graham A. Colditz,Frank E. Speizer,Walter C. Willett +7 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the excess risk of breast cancer associated with alcohol consumption may be reduced by adequate folate intake.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective Study of Fruit and Vegetable Consumption and Risk of Lung Cancer Among Men and Women
Diane Feskanich,Regina G. Ziegler,Dominique S. Michaud,Edward Giovannucci,Frank E. Speizer,Walter C. Willett,Graham A. Colditz +6 more
TL;DR: Higher fruit and vegetable intakes were associated with lower risks of lung cancer in women but not in men, and it is possible that the inverse association among the women remained confounded by unmeasured smoking characteristics, although fruits and vegetables were protective in both men and women who never smoked.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Extended-Duration Shifts on Medical Errors, Adverse Events, and Attentional Failures
Laura K. Barger,Najib T. Ayas,Najib T. Ayas,Najib T. Ayas,Brian E. Cade,John W. Cronin,John W. Cronin,Bernard Rosner,Frank E. Speizer,Charles A. Czeisler,Charles A. Czeisler +10 more
TL;DR: In a Web-based survey, extended-duration work shifts were associated with an increased risk of significant medical errors, adverse events, and attentional failures in interns across the United States.
