Application of two statistical approaches (Bayesian Kernel Machine Regression and Principal Component Regression) to assess breast cancer risk in association to exposure to mixtures of brominated flame retardants and per- and polyfluorinated alkylated substances in the E3N cohort

open access: yesEnvironmental Health, 2022
Background Brominated flame retardants (BFR) and per- and polyfluorinated alkylated substances (PFAS) are two groups of substances suspected to act as endocrine disruptors. Such substances could therefore be implicated in the occurrence of breast cancer,

Breast cancer risk in relation to ambient concentrations of nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter: results of a population-based case-control study corrected for potential selection bias (the CECILE study)

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2021
Background: There is only scant evidence that air pollution increases the risk of breast cancer. Objectives: We investigated this relationship for three air pollutants: nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and particulate matter with an aerodynamical diameter below 10
