Bisphenol A (BPA), found in plastics and epoxy resins, is one of the most studied chemicals. BPA regarded as an endocrine disruptor has been related to adverse health effects humans. However, some regulatory agencies around world have concluded that safe at current human exposure levels. As scientific community attempts settle debate on BPA's effects, agen­cies put into a challenging public policy situation. The United States implemented no actions due safety concerns, while Europe used...

Abstract Background Very recently, it has been reported that exposure to different mixtures of organochlorine pesticides (OCP) is associated with the development diabetes mellitus (DM). In Mexico, DM a public health problem might be related historical intense use OCP. We aimed evaluate, association between and serum concentrations OCP mixtures, identify main contributors within them. Methods conducted secondary cross-sectional analysis on control group from breast cancer population-based...

We evaluated the association between dietary patterns and breast cancer (BC) subtypes among women from Northern Mexico. From a study of incident cases population controls that was carried out 2007 to 2011, subsample 509 matched 1:1 by age with selected. Information about expression estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone (PR), human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) available medical records classify BC on luminal (ER + and/or PR+/HER2–), HER2+ (ER+/– PR+/–/HER2+), or triple negative (ER–...

Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal found in some foods. There limited evidence about the relationship of Cd exposure with nutrient and food groups consumption, almost no information regarding dietary patterns. The objective was to evaluate association between diet urinary Cd, explore whether concentrations vary according intake nutrients. Urinary 891 female residents northern Mexico were determined by tandem mass spectrometry. We obtained consumption through frequency questionnaire we used...

The objective was to estimate the risk of breast cancer (BC) molecular subtypes in relation average glycemic index (GI) and dietary load (GL) Mexican women. From 2007 2011, a study incident cases population controls conducted five states northern Mexico. A subsample 509 matched 1:1 by age with selected. With food frequency questionnaire, information about diet obtained, GI GL were calculated. expression human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), estrogen (ER) progesterone (PR)...
