Secret ties to industry and conflicting interests in cancer research

TL;DR: The shortfalls cited in this article illustrate the need for improved transparency, regulations that will help curb abuses as well as instruments for control and enforcement against abuses.

r-1,t-2,3,c-4-Tetrahydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophenanthrene in human urine: a potential biomarker for assessing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolic activation.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that trans, anti-PheT can be detected in human urine and proposed that measurement of this metabolite of phenanthrene may be important as part of a carcinogen metabolite-phenotyping approach to determine individual response to PAH exposure.

A preliminary assessment of the potential environmental and human health impact of unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine as a result of space activities

TL;DR: UDMH especially inside the fall region of burned-out rocket stages constitute a significant threat to both environmental and human health, the latter as a results of the carcinogenic, mutagenic, convulsant, teratogenic and embryotoxic characteristics of UDMH in addition to the general toxic characteristics of the compound.

Mortality of Industrial Workers Exposed to Acrylonitrile

TL;DR: Exposure to acrylonitrile at the levels studied is not associated with an increased relative risk for most cancers of a priori interest, and analyses of exposure-response do not provide strong or consistent evidence for a causal association.

External Radiation Exposure and Mortality in a Cohort of Uranium Processing Workers

TL;DR: In a study of 2,514 White male workers employed between 1942 and 1966 at a US uranium processing plant, mortality was compared with overall US mortality, and the relation between external ionizing radiation and cancer was evaluated.
