TL;DR: It is concluded that the spoilage of lightly preserved fish products is probably caused by lactic acid bacteria, certain psychotrophic Enterobacteriaceae and/or Photobacterium phosphoreum, however, more work is needed in this area.

TL;DR: The Working Group concluded that there is limited evidence that tobacco smoking causes breast cancer, and a causal link between parental smoking and childhood cancers has been established.
Abstract: www.thelancet.com/oncology Vol 10 November 2009 1033 In October, 2009, 30 scientists from 10 countries met at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) to reassess the carcinogenicity of tobacco, areca nut, alcohol, coal smoke, and saltpreserved fi sh, and to identify additional tumour sites (table) and mechanisms of carcinogenesis. These assessments will be published as part E of Volume 100 of the IARC Monographs. Tobacco smoking is the single largest cause of cancer worldwide. More than 1 billion people around the world are current smokers. New evidence con tinues to add to the extensive list of tobacco-related cancers (table); there is now suffi cient evidence that tobacco smoking causes cancer of the colon and of the ovary. More than 150 epi demiological studies of tobacco smoking and breast cancer were reviewed. Large cohort studies published since 2002 consistently show a small positive association (relative risks 1·1–1·3). Many chemicals in tobacco smoke cause mammarygland tumours in animals, and these carcinogens are stored in breast adipose tissue in women; therefore, the Working Group concluded that there is limited evidence that tobacco smoking causes breast cancer. A causal link between parental smoking and childhood cancers has been established. Four recent studies showed that children born of parents who smoke (father, mother, or both, including the preconception period and pregnancy) are at signifi cantly higher risk of hepatoblastoma, a rare embryonic cancer. The UK Childhood Cancer Study reported a relative risk of 1·86 for paternal smoking only and 2·02 for maternal smoking only, increasing to 4·74 (95% CI 1·68–13·35) when both parents smoke. For childhood leukaemia, a meta-analysis reported an associ ation with paternal smoking before pregnancy (summary relative risk 1·12, 1·04–1·21). Second-hand smoke causes lung cancer. There is now limited evidence for an association with cancers of the larynx and the pharynx, whereas evidence for female breast cancer remains inconclusive. Since secondhand smoke contains most of the constituents of mainstream smoke, it might also be associated with other cancer sites. Many types of smokeless tobacco are marketed and all contain nicotine and nitrosamines. Hundreds of millions of people use smokeless tobacco, mainly in India and southeast Asia, but also in Sweden and the USA. Earlier fi ndings showed a causal association between use of smokeless tobacco and cancers of the oral cavity and pancreas, and there is now suffi cient evidence for cancer of the oesophagus. All of the forms of tobacco discussed above induce malignant tumours in laboratory animals. Among the many carcinogens present in tobacco are nitrosamines, including the tobaccospecifi c nitrosamines 4-(methyl nitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone Special Report: Policy A review of human carcinogens—Part E: tobacco, areca nut, alcohol, coal smoke, and salted fi sh

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that consumption of Cantonese-style salted fish during all time periods was significantly associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma; the association was especially strong during childhood.
Abstract: Two hundred fifty incident cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma under age 35 years in Hong Kong Chinese and an equal number of age- and sex-matched friend controls were interviewed. Mothers of cases and controls were interviewed also, if available, to obtain information on childhood events concerning the study subjects. Consumption of Cantonese-style salted fish during all time periods was significantly associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma; the association was especially strong during childhood. The relative risk for having Cantonese-style salted fish as one of the first solid foods during weaning was 7.5 (95% confidence limits, 3.9, 14.8), and the relative risk for consuming the food at least once a week compared to less than once a month at age 10 years was 37.7 (95% confidence limits, 14.1, 100.4). It is estimated that over 90% of young nasopharyngeal carcinoma cases in Hong Kong Chinese can be attributed to consumption of this food during childhood.

TL;DR: A case‐control study of gastric cancer was done in a rural area of northern Kyushu, Japan, in relation to dietary habits especially focusing on the relationship with the consumption of broiled fish, and consistently in the comparisons with both sets of controls, the risk of gastrics cancer was inversely related with the Consumption of fruits and positively associated with cigarette smoking.
Abstract: A case-control study of gastric cancer was done in a rural area of northern Kyushu, Japan, in relation to dietary habits especially focusing on the relationship with the consumption of broiled fish. The study was based upon 139 cases of newly diagnosed gastric cancer at a single institution, 2,574 hospital controls and 278 controls sampled randomly from the residents of the study area (with sex and year of birth matched). No association was observed between the consumption of broiled fish and gastric cancer risk whether three types of broiled fish (raw fish, dried fish and salted fish) were analyzed separately or as a single category. However, consistently in the comparisons with both sets of controls, the risk of gastric cancer was inversely related with the consumption of fruits and positively associated with cigarette smoking. A decreased risk of gastric cancer was also noted among those with high consumption of green tea (10 or more cups per day).
