Which fish should I eat? Perspectives influencing fish consumption choices.

Journal ArticleDOI

Skin Cancer Risk in Relation to Toenail Arsenic Concentrations in a US Population-based Case-Control Study

TL;DR: While the risks of SCC and BCC did not appear elevated at the toenail arsenic concentrations detected in most study subjects, the authors cannot exclude the possibility of a dose-related increase at the highest levels of exposure experienced in the New Hampshire population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of Low Levels of Arsenic Exposure: A Comparison of Water and Toenail Concentrations

TL;DR: It is suggested that toenail samples provide a useful biologic marker for quantifying low-level arsenic exposure and should be considered for use in the evaluation of drinking water arsenic exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design of an epidemiologic study of drinking water arsenic exposure and skin and bladder cancer risk in a U.S. population.

TL;DR: In this article, a population-based epidemiologic case-control study in which residents of New Hampshire diagnosed with primary squamous cell and basal cell skin cancers are being selected from a special statewide skin cancer incidence survey; patients diagnosed withprimary bladder cancers (n = 450) are being identified through the New Hampshire State Cancer Registry.
