TL;DR: A role for the BsmI polymorphism of the VDR gene in CRC risk is confirmed, independent of serum 25OHD concentration and dietary calcium intake.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Overdiagnosis of Breast Cancer in Screening with Mammography: Results of the Nijmegen Programme
Petra H.M. Peeters,A.L.M. Verbeek,Huub Straatman,Robert Holland,J.H.C.L. Hendriks,M. Mravunac,C Rothengatter,A Van Dijk-Milatz,J.M. Werre +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that there is no evidence that screening programmes using modern mammography constitute a significant risk for overdiagnosis of breast cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
NAT2 slow acetylation and GSTM1 null genotypes may increase postmenopausal breast cancer risk in long-term smoking women.
Olga L. van der Hel,Petra H.M. Peeters,David W. Hein,Mark A. Doll,Diederick E. Grobbee,Daan Kromhout,H. Bas Bueno de Mesquita +6 more
TL;DR: Support is provided for the view that women who smoke and who have a genetically determined reduced inactivation of carcinogens (GSTM1 null genotype or slow NAT2 genotype) are at increased risk of breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma carotenoids, vitamin C, tocopherols, and retinol and the risk of breast cancer in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort

TL;DR: It is indicated that higher concentrations of plasma β-carotene and α- carotene are associated with lower breast cancer risk of ER- tumors and no statistically significant interaction between smoking, alcohol, or BMI is observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The study supports a role of ERCC2 in non-cardial GC but not in cardial cancer, and is the first prospective study suggesting that individual variation in DNA repair may be relevant for gastric carcinogenesis.
