Journal ArticleDOI
The international incidence of childhood cancer
TL;DR: Variations in the risk of those tumours between different countries and different ethnic groups provide important information on the relative importance of environmental and genetic factors in their aetiology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Second primary neoplasms in patients with retinoblastoma.
TL;DR: Evidence from this and other papers strongly suggests an association between retinoblastoma and malignant melanoma and the use of cyclophosphamide may increase the risk of second primary neoplasms in patients with genetic retinOBlastoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence of second primary tumours among childhood cancer survivors.
TL;DR: Radiotherapy appears to have been involved in the development of many of the SPTs observed following all FPTs excluding retinoblastoma, particularly after CNS tumours, Wilms' tumour and Hodgkin's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Childhood cancer in relation to distance from high voltage power lines in England and Wales: a case-control study
TL;DR: According to as mentioned in this paper, there is an association between childhood leukaemia and proximity of home address at birth to high voltage power lines, and the apparent risk extends to a greater distance than would have been expected from previous studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Case-control study of parental age, parity and socioeconomic level in relation to childhood cancers
TL;DR: The associations between ALL and parental ages did not disappear when children with Down syndrome were excluded, suggesting an additional explanation beyond known links.
