Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient DNA extraction from 25‐year‐old paraffin‐embedded tissues: study of 365 samples
Anna Gillio-Tos,Laura De Marco,Valentina Fiano,Federico Garcia-Bragado,Rajesh Dikshit,Rajesh Dikshit,Paolo Boffetta,Franco Merletti +7 more
TL;DR: The results of this study show that DNA can be efficiently extracted from PETs archived for more than 20 years, and that large scale population studies based on PCR amplification of short target sequences are feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for the development of second primary tumors among men after laryngeal and hypopharyngeal carcinoma.
Rajesh Dikshit,M.P.H. Paolo Boffetta M.D.,Christine Bouchardy,Franco Merletti,Paolo Crosignani,M.P.H. Teresa Cuchi M.D.,Eva Ardanaz,Paul Brennan +7 more
TL;DR: Second primary tumors (SPT) constitute a major threat to the survival of patients with laryngeal carcinoma and little is known regarding the risk factors for developing SPTs or about the strategy to be followed to avoid them.
Journal ArticleDOI
Smokeless tobacco and increased risk of hypopharyngeal and laryngeal cancers: a multicentric case-control study from India.
Amir Sapkota,Vendhan Gajalakshmi,Dhaval H. Jetly,Soma Roychowdhury,Rajesh Dikshit,Paul Brennan,Mia Hashibe,Paolo Boffetta +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that chewing tobacco products commercially available in India are risk factors for hypopharyngeal cancer, and that the potency of Bidi smoking may be higher than that of cigarette smoking for hypophileal and laryngeAL cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lifestyle habits as prognostic factors in survival of laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancer: a multicentric European study.
Rajesh Dikshit,Paolo Boffetta,Christine Bouchardy,Franco Merletti,Paolo Crosignani,Teresa Cuchi,Eva Ardanaz,Paul Brennan +7 more
TL;DR: The results support the hypothesis that there is a role for dietary intervention to improve survival of laryngeal and hypopharygeal cancer patients and protective effects of high intakes of vegetables, fibres and vitamin C were observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The experience in thus far developing and implementing the study protocol indicates that MOBI-Kids is feasible and will generate results that will contribute to the understanding of potential brain tumor risks associated with use of mobile phones and other wireless communications technologies among young people.
