Insecticide use and risk of non‐Hodgkin lymphoma subtypes: A subset meta‐analysis of the North American Pooled Project

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 147, Issue 12, Page 3370-3383, 15 December 2020., 2020
Abstract Insecticide use has been linked to increased risk of non‐Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), however, findings of epidemiologic studies have been inconsistent, particularly for NHL subtypes. We analyzed 1690 NHL cases and 5131 controls in the North American Pooled Project (NAPP) to investigate self‐reported insecticide use and risk of NHL overall and by ...
