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

Liver cancer: descriptive epidemiology and risk factors other than HBV and HCV infection.

TL;DR: The incidence of liver cancer is high in all low-resource regions of the world, with the exception of Northern Africa and Western Asia and the increased prevalence of overweight and obesity likely contributes to it.
Journal ArticleDOI

- 17 Mar 2011 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide association study to identify common genetic variation involved in susceptibility to upper aero-digestive tract (UADT) cancers implicate two variants at 4q21 and 12q24 and further highlight three ADH variants in UADT cancer susceptibility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dietary Fibre Intake and Risks of Cancers of the Colon and Rectum in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC)

TL;DR: The results strengthen the evidence for the role of high dietary fibre intake in colorectal cancer prevention and the association between total dietary fibre and risk of coloreCTal cancer risk did not differ by age, sex, or anthropometric, lifestyle, and dietary variables.
Journal ArticleDOI
