This review synthesized and appraised the evidence for an effect of inflammation on breast cancer risk. Systematic searches identified prospective cohort and Mendelian randomization studies relevant to this review. Meta-analysis of 13 biomarkers of inflammation were conducted to appraise the evidence for an effect breast cancer risk; we examined the dose-response of these associations. Risk of bias was evaluated using the ROBINS-E tool and the quality of evidence was appraised with Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation...

The protective effect of physical activity on breast cancer incidence may partially be mediated by inflammation. Systematic searches of Medline, EMBASE, and SPORTDiscus were performed to identify intervention studies, Mendelian randomization studies and prospective cohort studies that examined the effects of physical activity on circulating inflammatory biomarkers in adult women. Meta-analyses were performed to generate effect estimates. Risk of bias was assessed, and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system used to determine the overall quality of the evidence...

BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis is critical to lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients' survival but faces inadequacies in convenient early detection. METHODS: We applied a comprehensive microarray of 130,000 peptides to detect 'autoantibody signature' which is autoantibodies binding to mimotopes for early detection of stage 0-I LUAD. Plasma samples were collected from 147 early-stage LUAD (Early-LUAD), 108 benign lung disease (BLD), and 122 normal healthy controls (NHC)...

BACKGROUND: Transcriptome studies are gaining momentum in genomic epidemiology, and the need to incorporate these data in multivariable models alongside other risk factors brings demands for new approaches. METHODS: Here we describe SPECTRA, an approach to derive quantitative variables that capture the intrinsic variation in gene expression of a tissue type. We applied the SPECTRA approach to bulk RNA sequencing from malignant cells (CD138+) in patients from the Multiple Myeloma (MM) Research Foundation CoMMpass study...

BACKGROUND: Children with cancer from rural and non-urban areas face unique challenges. Health equity for this population requires attention to geographic disparities in optimal survivorship-focused care. METHODS: The Oklahoma Childhood Cancer Survivor Cohort was based on all patients reported to the institutional cancer registry and <18-years-old at diagnosis between January 1, 2005, and September 24, 2014. Suboptimal follow-up was defined as no completed oncology-related clinic visit five to seven years after their initial diagnosis (survivors were 7-25 years old at end of the follow-up period)...

BACKGROUND: Better understanding of prognostic factors in tubo-ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) is critical, as diagnosis confers an aggressive disease course. Variation in tumor DNA methylation shows promise predicting outcome, yet prior studies were largely platform-specific and unable to evaluate multiple molecular features. METHODS: We analyzed genome-wide DNA methylation in 1,040 frozen HGSC, including 325 previously reported upon, seeking a multi-platform quantitative methylation signature that we evaluated in relation to clinical features, tumor characteristics, time to recurrence/death, extent of CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), gene expression molecular subtypes, and gene expression of the ATP-binding cassette transporter TAP1...

BACKGROUND: The Canadian Cancer Registry does not collect demographic data beyond age and sex, making it difficult to monitor health inequalities. Using data linkage, we compared site-specific cancer incidence rates by race. METHODS: The 2006 and 2011 Canadian Census Health and Environment Cohorts are population-based probabilistically linked datasets of 5.9 million respondents of the 2006 long-form census and 6.5 million respondents of the 2011 National Household Survey...

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer incidence rates in women of Asian descent have been increasing in the United States (U.S.) and Asia. METHODS: In a case-control study of Asian American women from the San Francisco Bay Area, we assessed associations with birthplace and migration-related characteristics and compared risk factors between Asian American and non-Hispanic White women by birthplace and birth cohort. RESULTS: Birthplace and migration-related characteristics were associated with breast cancer risk only among women in the younger birth cohort (1951-1984) that comprised 355 cases diagnosed at age ≤55 years and 276 sister and population controls...

BACKGROUND: Dyslipidemia is closely associated with metabolic syndrome, a known risk factor for colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the association of dyslipidemia with CRC risk is controversial. Most previous studies did not consider cholesterol-lowering medication use at the time of lipid measurements, which could bias findings. METHODS: We analyzed data from 384,862 UK Biobank participants to disentangle the associations between blood lipids and CRC risk. Serum levels of total cholesterol, high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C, LDL-C), and triglyceride were measured at study baseline...

Background Head and Neck cancer (HNC) mortality differs by race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status (SES). However, it is unclear whether the relationship between race/ethnicity and HNC-specific mortality varies according to the residence-level SES. Methods: Data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database included participants with primary HNC between 2006-2017 (followed through 2018) to assess the joint association of race/ethnicity and census-tract level SES Yost-index groups (quintiles) with all-cause and HNC-specific mortalities...

BACKGROUND: Metastatic prostate cancer (MPC) includes metastases detected at diagnosis (de novo) and those occurring after diagnosis with early-stage disease (recurrent). Cancer registries collect data only on de novo MPC, providing a partial picture of the burden of MPC. We use cancer registry data to estimate the number of men living with MPC in the US including both de novo and recurrent cases. METHODS: We apply a back-calculation method to estimate MPC incidence and prevalence from US prostate cancer (PC) mortality and de novo MPC relative survival for cases diagnosed between 2000-2017 in 18 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registries...
