The toxicity of pesticides on human reproduction is largely unknown--particularly how mixtures pesticide products might affect fetal toxicity. Ontario Farm Family Health Study collected data by questionnaire the identity and timing use farm, lifestyle factors, a complete reproductive history from farm operator eligible couples living farm. A total 2,110 women provided information 3,936 pregnancies, including 395 spontaneous abortions. To explore critical windows exposure target sites for...
The World Health Organization recently launched the Global Initiative for Childhood Cancer aiming to substantially increase survival among children with cancer by 2030. ultimate goal concerns particularly less developed countries where estimates are considerably lower than in high-income attain approximately 80% survival. Given vast gap high-quality data availability between more and countries, measuring success of will also require substantial support childhood registries enable them...
In this study, we examined the association between meat and fish intake risk of various cancers. Mailed questionnaires were completed by 19,732 incident, histologically confirmed cases cancer stomach, colon, rectum, pancreas, lung, breast, ovary, prostate, testis, kidney, bladder, brain, non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL), leukemia 5,039 population controls 1994 1997 in 8 Canadian provinces. Measurement included information on socioeconomic status, lifestyle habits, diet. A 69-item food frequency...
This study assesses the association between salt added at table, processed meat and risk of various cancers. Mailed questionnaires were completed by 19 732 patients with histologically confirmed incident cancer stomach, colon, rectum, pancreas, lung, breast, ovary, prostate, testis, kidney, bladder, brain, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or leukaemia, 5039 population controls,between 1994 1997. Measurement included information on socioeconomic status, lifestyle habits diet. A 69-item food frequency...
Cancer is one of the leading causes deaths worldwide (1); in 2012, an estimated 65% all cancer occurred less developed regions world (2). In Caribbean region, second cause mortality, with 87,430 cancer-related reported 2012 (3). The Pan American Health Organization defines region as a group 27 countries that vary size, geography, resources, and surveillance systems.* CDC calculated site- sex-specific proportions age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) for 21 English- Dutch-speaking...
Each year, the Canadian Cancer Statistics publication provides an estimate of expected case counts and rates for common cancer sites current year in Canada as a whole provinces territories. This monograph expands on by providing historical projected incidence frequencies at national regional levels from 1983 to 2032. The aim is that this will be important resource health researchers planners. Most importantly, it hoped will: - provide evidence-based input development public policy priorities...
Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic has caused disruptions to national health systems and impacted outcomes worldwide. However, the extent which surveillance systems, such as population‐based cancer registration, have been affected was not reported. Here we sought evaluate effect of on registry operations across different areas development levels We investigated impact three main operations: staffing, financing data collection. An online survey administered 750 member registries International...
The interplay between hippocampus and medial entorhinal cortex (mEC) is of key importance for forming spatial representations. Within the hippocampal-entorhinal loop, receives context-specific signals from layers II/III mEC feeds memory-associated activity back into layer V (LV). processing this output signal within mEC, however, largely unknown. We characterized activation receiving network by evoked naturally occurring patterns in mouse slices. Both types glutamatergic neurons (mEC LVa...
Cancer incidence by type has been included as a core indicator in the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Monitoring Framework for Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases. The Initiative Registry Development (GICR), coordinated International Agency Research on (IARC), supports low- middle-income countries to reduce disparities cancer information control increasing coverage quality registration. A baseline assessment performed at IARC Regional Hub Latin America using secondary...
This study assesses the association between dietary transfatty acid (TFA) intake and risk of selected cancers. Mailed questionnaires were completed 1994 1997 in eight Canadian provinces by 1182 incident, histologically confirmed cases stomach, 1727 colon, 1447 rectum, 628 pancreas, 3341 lung, 2362 breast, 442 ovary, 1799 prostate, 686 testis, 1345 kidney, 1029 bladder, 1009 brain, 1666 non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, 1069 leukemias, 5039 population controls. Information on habits nutrition was...
Abstract In perinatal research and clinical practice, gestational age is a crucial variable for measuring foetal ‘growth’ (birth weight age) estimating the risk of mortality morbidity, yet reported values are affected by random systematic errors due to absence gold standard measure. Previous investigators have used birth (which measured with greater validity precision than correct such errors, but existing methods inadequate unreasonable assumptions about distributions age. We propose new...
Abstract Various rules have been proposed to identify and exclude live births with implausible values of birth weight for gestational age from large perinatal data sets. The authors carried out a preliminary evaluation common by examining the frequency nature rule-based exclusions among in Canada (excluding Ontario) between 1992 1994. There were 625 (0.09%), 133 (0.02%), 170 2,858 (0.40%) identified exclusion median ±4 standard deviations (SD) rule, ±5 SD rule based on expert clinical...
The study assesses the association of diet and vitamin or mineral supplementation with risk proximal distal colon cancer. Mailed questionnaires were completed by 1723 newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed cancer cases 3097 population controls between 1994 1997 in seven Canadian provinces. Measurement included information on socio-economic status, physical activity, smoking habits, alcohol use, supplementation. Odds ratios 95% confidence intervals derived through unconditional logistic...
