Modeling the complex smoking exposure history in assessment of pan-cancer risk.

Sex- and Smoking-Specific Association between Physical Activity and Digestive Cancer Risk.

A non-linear, U-shaped pattern of association was observed between PA frequency and digestive cancer risk, most pronounced in men and in individuals who had never smoked, which should be interpreted cautiously given the potential for residual confounding and exposure misclassification.

Why the mortality penalty of smoking is rising over time

Abstract The adverse association between smoking and mortality is well known, yet estimated risks for smokers have risen markedly in recent decades. Explanations range from physiological impacts of changes in smoking intensity to shifts in the social characteristics of smokers. However, these hypotheses have rarely bee...

Modifiable lifestyle factors and cancer risk in Latin America: A systematic review with meta-analysis

In a direction-of-effect synthesis, healthy dietary exposures were protective in 9 of 9 estimates, whereas smoking and unhealthy diets were predominantly associated with increased risk.

Total moderate-to-vigorous physical activity across the adult life course and the risk of invasive ovarian cancer

Abstract Background Previous research on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and ovarian cancer risk have shown inconsistent results. Most studies measured recreational MVPA once during late adulthood, which does not consider the way in which timing may differently influence risk or account for MVPA from othe...

Determinants of Continued Smoking After Cancer Diagnosis: The Role of Household and Social Exposure

Continued use of combustible tobacco after a cancer diagnosis is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Despite this, tobacco cessation remains difficult for many patients, underscoring the need to better understand clinical and social factors associated with continued smoking after diagnosis. In...
