Journal ArticleDOI
Tobacco smoking and cancer: a brief review of recent epidemiological evidence.
TL;DR: This report summarises the epidemiological evidence on the association between tobacco smoking and cancer, which was reviewed by an international group of scientists convened by IARC, and shows a consistent and statistically significant association between exposure to environmental tobacco smoke and lung cancer risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The first wave of GATS showed high rates ofsmoking in men, early initiation of smoking in women, and low quit ratios, reinforcing the view that efforts to prevent initiation and promote cessation of tobacco use are needed to reduce associated morbidity and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Air pollution combustion emissions: characterization of causative agents and mechanisms associated with cancer, reproductive, and cardiovascular effects.
TL;DR: Although there is substantial evidence that PAH or substituted PAH may be causative agent in cancer and reproductive effects, an increasing number of studies investigating cardiopulmonary and cardiovascular effects are investigating these and other potential causative agents from air pollution combustion sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Weight-loss diets that were high in protein but reduced in total carbohydrates and fiber resulted in a significant decrease in fecal cancer-protective metabolites and increased concentrations of hazardous metabolites, which may increase risk of colonic disease.
Journal Article

J Michalowicz,W. Duda +1 more
TL;DR: Phenols and their derivatives commonly exist in the environment as mentioned in this paper and they are used as the components of dyes, polymers, drugs and other organic substances such as dyes and polymers.
