Dihydrotestosterone and cancer risk
Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes & Obesity, 2018Purpose of reviewAndrogens have been implicated in prostate growth; however, the role of androgens in prostate cancer development is not clear. Furthermore, studies suggest a role for androgens in female-hormone-dependent cancers and common nonhormone dependent cancers.

Despite numerous randomized clinical trials and observational epidemiologic studies, evidence on the potential effectiveness of statins for prevention of cancer remains controversial. The objective of this study was to investigate the relation between lipophilic statin use and cancer occurrence.We conducted a retrospective observational study based on ...

Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have a 2.7-fold increased risk for developing endometrial cancer. A major factor for this increased malignancy risk is prolonged exposure of the endometrium to unopposed estrogen that results from anovulation.

Environmental Science & Technology, 1985
An approach for reduction of the incidence of cancer which is based on regulation of chemical carcinogens is presented. The paper reviews the mechanisms of cancer induction, their relationships to dose-response functions, and the epidemiologic and animal studies used to estimate the coefficients of those functions.

Inequalities in health reflect social inequalities in society. The incapacity of our society to eliminate poverty is indeed one of the most blatant examples of failure in prevention. Every individual's health history is characterized by life-long influences and superimposed short-term factors, but health biographies of the rich and the poor show ...

Medical Oncology and Tumor Pharmacotherapy, 1990
Four epidemiological studies have been performed that are generally consistent with the hypothesis that increased available body iron stores increase the risk of cancer or of general mortality. In a study based on the First National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in the United States (NHANES), 232 men who developed cancer over a ten year ...

Estrogens are important in the growth and differentiation of hormone-responsive tissue. Estrogens will proliferate surface epithelia of the ductal breast, the vagina and others. Undoubtedly, genetic and environmental factors influence estrogen homeostatasis and tissue specific exposure to estrogen and its metabolites.
