Family clustering of blood cancers as a risk factor for lymphoid neoplasms.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Family aggregation of cancer was significantly more common among 588 incident cases with lymphoid neoplasms than among 631 controls (OR: 1.4; 95%CI= 1.1-1.8, p value=0.004). This association was of particular relevance among cases of multiple myeloma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, with a 2-fold increased risk, the latter also showing an almost 4-fold increased risk of family aggregation of hematologic cancers.

متن کاملFactor Analysis of Metabolic Syndrome among Iranian Male Smokers
Background: Recent studies show cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors have the tendency to intermingle. Integration between some biological and homodynamic risk factors have made the new hypothesis for etiology of CVDs. The aim of this study was to determine the clustering pattern of metabolic variables and left ventricular (LV) mass among smoker and non-smoker individuals and the interrela...
