A susceptibility locus for lung cancer maps to nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunit genes on 15q25

Rayjean J. Hung, +64 more
- 03 Apr 2008 - 
TL;DR: The results provide compelling evidence of a locus at 15q25 predisposing to lung cancer, and reinforce interest in nicotinic acetylcholine receptors as potential disease candidates and chemopreventative targets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction between tobacco and alcohol use and the risk of head and neck cancer: pooled analysis in the International Head and Neck Cancer Epidemiology Consortium.

TL;DR: It is confirmed that the joint effect between tobacco and alcohol use is greater than multiplicative on head and neck cancer risk, however, a substantial proportion of head and head cancers cannot be attributed to tobacco or alcohol use, particularly for oral cavity cancer and for head andneck cancer among women and among young-onset cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alcohol Drinking in Never Users of Tobacco, Cigarette Smoking in Never Drinkers, and the Risk of Head and Neck Cancer: Pooled Analysis in the International Head and Neck Cancer Epidemiology Consortium

TL;DR: The results represent the most precise estimates available of the independent association of each of the two main risk factors of head and neck cancer, and they exemplify the strengths of large-scale consortia in cancer epidemiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Epidemiology of Sarcoma

TL;DR: The limited studies identified demonstrate significant relationships with sarcoma risk, but many of these results now require further validation on larger populations and will be important to assess in future studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cystectomy for bladder cancer: a contemporary series

TL;DR: The pT stage of the bladder and prostate should be prospectively analyzed together to better define the clinical implications of prostatic involvement, and in the authors' opinion the histological subtypes do not affect outcome.
