This paper examines the association between use of protective devices, frequency acute health problems and health-protection information received by participants engaged in Prestige oil spill clean-up Asturias Cantabria, Spain.We studied 133 seamen, 135 bird cleaners, 266 volunteers 265 paid workers selected random sampling, stratified type worker number working days. Information was collected telephone interview conducted June 2003. The interest summarized, using odds ratios (OR) obtained...
We present the protocol of a large population-based case-control study 5 common tumors in Spain (MCC-Spain) that evaluates environmental exposures and genetic factors.Between 2008-2013, 10,106 subjects aged 20-85 were enrolled 23 hospitals primary care centres 12 Spanish provinces including 1,112 cases with new diagnosis prostate cancer, 1,738 breast 2,140 colorectal 459 gastro-oesophageal 559 chronic lymphocytic leukaemia 4,098 population controls frequency matched to by age, sex region...
Tobacco smoking is a known cause of gastric cancer, but several aspects the association remain imprecisely quantified. We examined relation between cigarette and risk cancer using uniquely large dataset 23 epidemiological studies within 'Stomach Pooling (StoP) Project', including 10 290 cases 26 145 controls. estimated summary odds ratios (ORs) corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) by pooling study-specific ORs random-effects models. Compared with never smokers, were 1.20 (95% CI:...
Background: Night shift work, exposure to light at night (ALAN) and circadian disruption may increase the risk of hormone-dependent cancers. Objectives: We evaluated association ALAN during sleeping time with breast prostate cancer in a population based multicase–control study (MCC-Spain), among subjects who had never worked night. chronotype, characteristic that relate adaptation Methods: enrolled 1,219 cases, 1,385 female controls, 623 879 male controls from 11 Spanish regions 2008–2013....
The European Pollutant Emission Register in Spain (EPER-Spain) is a public inventory of pollutant industries created by decision the Union. location these geocoded and first published data correspond to 2001. Publication will allow for quantification effect proximity one or more such plant on cancer all-cause mortality observed nearby towns. However, as errors have been detected geocoding many foci shown EPER, it was decided that validation study should be conducted into accuracy...
Night shift work has been classified as a probable human carcinogen based on experimental studies and limited evidence breast cancer. Evidence other common cancers, such prostate cancer, is scarce. Chronotype an individual characteristic that may relate to night adaptation. We evaluated with relation taking into account chronotype disease severity in population case-control study Spain. included 1,095 cancer cases 1,388 randomly selected controls. collected detailed information schedules...
Ingested nitrate leads to the endogenous synthesis of N-nitroso compounds (NOCs), animal carcinogens with limited human evidence. We aimed evaluate risk colorectal cancer (CRC) associated exposure in drinking water and diet. A case-control study Spain Italy during 2008-2013 was conducted. Hospital-based incident cases population-based (Spain) or hospital-based (Italy) controls were interviewed on residential history, consumption since age 18, dietary information. Long-term waterborne...

In Spain, few studies have evaluated prenatal exposure to heavy metals. The objective of this study was describe lead, mercury and cadmium concentrations in blood from a sample newborn-mother-father trios, as well investigate the association between metals cord parental variables. We also explored relationship metal child characteristics at birth.Metal correlations among family members were assessed using Spearman Rank Correlation Coefficient. Linear regression used explore variables...
<h3>Objective</h3> To explore the relationship between stomach cancer (SC), by histological type, and occupations occupational exposures. <h3>Methods</h3> The authors conducted a hospital-based case–control study in south-east Spain. Subjects were 399 incident confirmed SC cases (241 intestinal 109 diffuse adenocarcinomas) 455 controls frequency matched sex, age province of residence. Occupation was coded according to Spanish National Classification Occupations 1994. Occupational exposures...
The rapid increase in mobile phone use young people has generated concern about possible health effects of exposure to radiofrequency (RF), extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic fields (EMF). MOBI-Kids, a multinational case-control study, investigates the potential childhood and adolescent EMF from communications technologies on brain tumor risk 14 countries. which aims include approximately 1,000 cases aged 10-24 years two individually matched controls for each case, follows common...
Modern life involves mistimed sleeping and eating patterns that in experimental studies are associated with adverse health effects. We assessed whether timing of meals is breast prostate cancer risk taking into account lifestyle chronotype, a characteristic correlating preference for morning or evening activity. conducted population‐based case‐control study Spain, 2008–2013. In this analysis we included 621 cases 1,205 872 male 1,321 female population controls who had never worked night...
The consumption of processed meat has been associated with noncardia gastric cancer, but evidence regarding a possible role red is more limited. Our study aims to quantify the association between consumption, namely white, and meat, risk through individual participant data meta-analysis studies participating in "Stomach cancer Pooling (StoP) Project". Data from 22 studies, including 11,443 cases 28,029 controls, were used. Study-specific odds ratios (ORs) pooled two-stage approach based on...
