Journal ArticleDOI

Tubal ligation and risk of ovarian cancer subtypes: a pooled analysis of case-control studies

TL;DR: The protective effects of tubal ligation on ovarian cancer risk were subtype-specific, and insights are provided into distinct aetiologies of ovarian cancer subtypes and mechanisms underlying the protective effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenetic analysis leads to identification of HNF1B as a subtype-specific susceptibility gene for ovarian cancer

Hui Shen, +180 more
TL;DR: Different variants in HNF1B associate with risk of serous and clear cell epithelial ovarian cancer; DNA methylation and expression patterns are also notably distinct between these subtypes.
Journal Article

Determinants for genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in 1000 randomly chosen young Danish women with normal Pap smear: are there different risk profiles for oncogenic and nononcogenic HPV types?

TL;DR: This study confirms the venereal nature of HPV infection and hypothesizes that the low-risk HPV infection, which correlates with recent sexual behavior, may be more transient than infection with the oncogenic HPV types, which correlate with lifetime exposure measurements of sexual habits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tubal ligation and salpingectomy and the risk of epithelial ovarian cancer and borderline ovarian tumors: a nationwide case-control study.

TL;DR: Bilateral salpingectomy may represent an opportunity for surgical prevention of serous ovarian cancer and any protective effect of tubal ligation may vary with histologic subtype of ovarian cancer.
