"IARC group 2B Carcinogens" reported in cigarette mainstream smoke.
TL;DR: Nine chemical compounds of the 50 Group 2A listings have been reported in cigarette mainstream smoke and in micrograms/cigarette (mug/cig), the ranges reported for each of the nine compounds are revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carcinogenicity of metal compounds: possible role of DNA repair inhibition.
TL;DR: Current evidence suggests that DNA repair systems are very sensitive targets for nickel, cadmium, cobalt and arsenic, leading to a diminished removal of endogenous DNA lesions and of DNA damage induced by environmental agents, which in turn may increase the risk of tumor formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of DNA repair inhibition in lead- and cadmium-induced genotoxicity: a review.
TL;DR: For both metals, the indirect genotoxic effects are observed at low, nontoxic concentrations, suggesting that an interference with DNA repair processes may be predominant at biologically relevant concentrations, and might explain the conflicting results of epidemiological studies obtained for both metals.

TL;DR: A population-based study of 1251 subjects with Crohn's disease diagnosed in Stockholm from 1955 to 1984 and followed in both the National Cancer Register and the National Cause-of-Death Register finds the occurrence of colorectal cancer was not increased.
Journal ArticleDOI
An analysis of risk factors for oral cancer in young people: a case-control study.
TL;DR: The results suggest that although this younger sample exhibit similar behavioural risk factors to older oral cancer patients, the low odds produced in addition to the relatively short duration of exposure, suggest that factors other than tobacco and alcohol may be implicated in the development of oral cancer in these younger patients.
