Choice of exposure scores for categorical regression in meta-analysis: a case study of a common problemDora Il'yasova
Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC, USA
Cancer Causes Control 16:383-8. 2005..This method requires the assignment of a single score to each exposure category. We examined how closely meta-analytical categorical regression approximates the results of analysis based on the individual-level continuous exposure...
Black tea consumption and risk of rectal cancer in Moscow populationIl yasova Dora
Department of Epidemiology, University of North Carolina at, Chapel Hill, NC 27157, USA
Ann Epidemiol 13:405-11. 2003..This population-based case-control study (663 cases and 323 controls) examined the effect of black tea intake on the risk of rectal cancer in Moscow residents. The Moscow population was selected for its wide range of black tea consumption...

Ann Epidemiol 14:793-7. 2004..However, this method is laborious and costly, which prohibits its use in large epidemiological studies...
Tea intake and risk of colon cancer in African-Americans and whites: North Carolina colon cancer studyDora Il'yasova
Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA
Cancer Causes Control 14:767-72. 2003..Tea polyphenols have been shown to exhibit anti-cancer activity, but the epidemiological findings are inconsistent. We examined the association between tea consumption and colon cancer in a population-based study in North Carolina...
Urinary F₂-isoprostanes, obesity, and weight gain in the IRAS cohortDora Il'yasova
Duke University Medical Center, Duke Cancer Institute, Durham, North Carolina, USA
Obesity (Silver Spring) 20:1915-21. 2012..37-0.87), respectively. The other three F(2)-IsoPs were consistently inversely associated with weight gain, although not significantly, suggesting that different F(2)-IsoPs vary in their ability to detect the association with weight gain...
Systemic markers of oxidative status and colorectal adenomatous polypsSharareh Siamakpour-Reihani
Duke Cancer Institute, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA
Ann Epidemiol 22:587-91. 2012..Oxidative damage has been implicated in carcinogenesis. We hypothesized that elevated systemic oxidative status would be associated with later occurrence of colorectal adenomatous polyps, a precursor of colorectal cancer...
Urinary F2-isoprostanes as a biomarker of reduced risk of type 2 diabetesDora Il'yasova
Duke Cancer Institute, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, USA
Diabetes Care 35:173-4. 2012..Here, we report the results from the study extended to the entire IRAS cohort...

Section on Hematology and Oncology, Department of Internal Medicine, Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Medical Center Blvd, Winston Salem, NC 27157, USA
Br J Nutr 99:1226-9. 2008..On the other hand, the finding of hypocupraemia in a subset of adults with unexplained anaemia suggests that Cu deficiency may be a common reversible cause of anaemia in adults...
Medical diagnostic radiation exposures and risk of gliomasFaith Davis
Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60612, USA
Radiat Res 175:790-6. 2011..This observational data will increase awareness about potential risks associated with CT scans and the need to minimize the use of unnecessary examinations...
Genome-wide high-density SNP linkage search for glioma susceptibility loci: results from the Gliogene ConsortiumSanjay Shete
Department of Epidemiology, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas 77030, USA
Cancer Res 71:7568-75. 2011..81 (P = 0.00001). The genomic regions we have implicated in this study may offer novel insights into glioma susceptibility, focusing future work to identify genes that cause familial glioma...
The epidemiology of tea consumption and colorectal cancer incidenceLenore Arab
Department of Epidemiology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC, USA
J Nutr 133:3310S-3318S. 2003..Finally, the assessment of tea in most of these studies was based on a single question and therefore may have significant measurement error compared with more recent studies specifically aimed at assessing tea consumption...
Risk factors for oligodendroglial tumors: a pooled international studyBridget J McCarthy
