Sunlight, hormone replacement status and colorectal cancer risk in postmenopausal women.

TL;DR: Analysis of the association between sun exposure, which is an important vitamin D source, and colorectal cancer risk among postmenopausal women in the U.S. is consistent with evidence from the WHI suggesting a decrease in colore CT cancer risk may be associated with vitamin D exposure among post menopausal women who are not taking HRT, but not among current HRT users.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and risk of basal cell carcinoma in the United States Radiologic Technologists study.

TL;DR: No association was observed when stratified by NSAID type (aspirin and other NSAIDs), nor did dose–response patterns emerge by frequency of use (average days per month), and further analyses did not reveal interaction with sex, birth cohort, smoking, alcohol consumption, sun exposure, occupational radiation exposure or personal risk factors for BCC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Occupational exposure to chlorinated solvents and risks of glioma and meningioma in adults

TL;DR: There was some suggestion of an association between carbon tetrachloride and glioma in analyses restricted to exposed subjects, but no consistent evidence for increased brain tumour risk related to chlorinated solvents was found.
