Caffeine, alcohol, smoking, and the risk of incident epithelial ovarian cancer

Abstract: Patients with ITP may have severe thrombocytopenia, putting them at risk for serious bleeding. ITP trials of new treatments must allow use of standard‐of‐care therapies to prevent serious bleeding. Thrombopoietin mimetic trials used platelet counts and rescue/concomitant medication use as endpoints. These trials were of insufficient size and duration to measure mortality or serious bleeding, which are infrequent with appropriate treatment. A recent Cochrane review criticized the thrombopoietin mimetic registra… Show more

“…19 In a recent large population study, epithelial ovarian cancer did not observe an association with smoking. 20 Present results confirm that to tobacco smoking/chewing may not increase the risk of ovarian cancer. However, this study was only observational study but not a randomized control trial for assessment of tobacco in relation with ovarian cancer.…”

“…In a recent large population study, epithelial ovarian cancer did not observe an association with smoking [21] Our results confirm that smoking may not increase the risk of ovarian cancer. However, this study was not based on cigarette smoking and did not search the insidence of ovarian cancer in cigarette smoking women.…”

“…Moreover, insufficient data from 3 relevant may be biased in this meta-analysis. [27][28][29] Thus, these facts may act as confounding factors for comparing EOC risk between wine and never drinkers; Third, we could not evaluate the chemopreventive effect of wine according to dose-dependency because cut-off levels of the increased wine consumption were different among all 7 studies. Fourth, we could not also evaluate EOC risk according to menopausal status and histological types because of the lack of related data, and the results of this meta-analysis should be interpreted considering different covariates for risk estimation.…”

“…[7][8][9][10][11] However, several epidemiologic results have been heterogenous regarding the association between wine drinking and EOC risk. [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] Therefore, the current study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of wine drinking for reducing EOC risk through a meta-analysis using previous relevant studies.…”
