Cumulative absolute breast cancer risk for young women treated for Hodgkin lymphomaLois B Travis
Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
J Natl Cancer Inst 97:1428-37. 2005..We estimated this future risk, taking into account age and calendar year of HL diagnosis, HL treatment information, population breast cancer incidence rates, and competing causes of death...
Serum concentrations of estrogens, sex hormone binding globulin, and androgens and risk of breast hyperplasia in postmenopausal womenCatherine Schairer
Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, 6120 Executive Blvd, EPS, Room 8020 MSC 7234, Rockville, MD 20852 7234, USA
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 14:1660-5. 2005..We sought to determine whether serum concentrations of estrogens, androgens, and sex hormone binding globulin in postmenopausal women were related to the presence of mammary hyperplasia, an established breast cancer risk factor...

Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
JAMA 290:465-75. 2003..Quantitative associations between radiotherapy dose delivered to the breast and administered chemotherapy have not been reported to date in large series, nor has the influence of ovarian exposures on subsequent risk...
Serum concentrations of IGF-I, IGFBP-3 and c-peptide and risk of hyperplasia and cancer of the breast in postmenopausal womenCatherine Schairer
Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, Rockville, MD 20852, USA
Int J Cancer 108:773-9. 2004..5 (95% CI 0.7-3.0) and 1.6 (95% CI 0.8-3.2), respectively (p trend = 0.35 and 0.25, respectively). Our results suggest that insulin and insulin resistance may play a role in breast pathology in postmenopausal women...

Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, Bethesda, Maryland 20892-7238, USA
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 12:1443-8. 2003..Shared environmental or genetic factors in families may influence glioma risk. Our findings suggest that individuals with a family history of specific cancers other than glioma may have an increased glioma risk...

Endometrial cancer risk in estrogen users after switching to estrogen-progestin therapyJessica Chubak
Division of Public Health Sciences, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, WA 98195, USA
Cancer Causes Control 18:1001-7. 2007..It is unknown whether postmenopausal unopposed estrogen users are better off, in terms of endometrial cancer risk, switching to a combined estrogen-progestin regimen or stopping hormone use altogether...
