Inverse Association between Dietary Iron Intake and Gastric Cancer: A Pooled An...
Collatuzzo, G; Teglia, F; Pelucchi, C; Negri, E; Rabkin, CS; Liao, LM; Sinha, R; López‐carrillo, L; Lunet, N; Morais, S; Aragonés, N; Moreno, VBackground: Inconsistent findings have been reported regarding the relationship between dietary iron intake and the risk of gastric cancer (GC). Methods: We pooled data from 11 case‐control studies from the Stomach Cancer Pooling (StoP) Project. Total dietary iron intake was derived from food frequency questionnaires combined with national nutritional tables. We derived the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence ...
Mapping subnational HIV mortality in six Latin American countries with incomple...
Cork, MA; Henry, NJ; Watson, S; Croneberger, AJ; Baumann, M; Letourneau, ID; Yang, M; Serfes, AL; Abbas, J; Abbasi, N; Abbastabar, H; Abreu, LGBackground: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains a public health priority in Latin America. While the burden of HIV is historically concentrated in urban areas and high-risk groups, subnational estimates that cover multiple countries and years are missing. This paucity is partially due to incomplete vital registration (VR) systems and statistical challenges related to estimating mortality rates in areas w...
Mapping inequalities in exclusive breastfeeding in low- and middle-income count...
Bhattacharjee, NV; Schaeffer, LE; Hay, SI; Lu, D; Schipp, MF; Lazzar-Atwood, A; Donkers, KM; Abady, GG; Abd-Allah, F; Abdelalim, A; Abebo, ZHExclusive breastfeeding (EBF)-giving infants only breast-milk for the first 6 months of life-is a component of optimal breastfeeding practices effective in preventing child morbidity and mortality. EBF practices are known to vary by population and comparable subnational estimates of prevalence and progress across low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are required for planning policy and interventions. Here w...
Hereditary gastric and breast cancer syndromes related to CDH1 germline mutatio...
Corso, G; Montagna, G; Figueiredo, J; Vecchia, CL; Romario, UF; Fernandes, MS; Seixas, S; Roviello, F; Trovato, C; Guerini-Rocco, E; Fusco, NE-cadherin (CDH1 gene) germline mutations are associated with the development of diffuse gastric cancer in the context of the so-called hereditary diffuse gastric syndrome, and with an inherited predisposition of lobular breast carcinoma. In 2019, the international gastric cancer linkage consortium revised the clinical criteria and established guidelines for the genetic screening of CDH1 germline syndromes. Nev...
