“…In addition, in accordance with the institutional policy, this study received an exemption from the McGill University Research Ethics Board review. We examined the data on incidence and mortality of AML using 3 distinct population‐based cancer databases (Canadian Cancer Registry [CCR], Le Registre Québécois du Cancer [LRQC], and Canadian Vital Statistics [CVS]) for the period 1992‐2010 using International Classification of Diseases for Oncology ICD‐O‐3 codes for all subtypes of AML in a manner similar to that reported previously . Detailed methods are provided in Supporting Appendix 1.…”

“…The epidemiology of AML in Canada is yet to be fully described and remains poorly understood. Several risk factors have been implicated in leukemogenesis, including occupational exposure to radiation, solvents, and chemicals such as benzene and formaldehyde; exposure to certain chemotherapy agents (eg, mechlorethamine, procarbazine, chlorambucil, melphalan, etoposide, teniposide and cyclophosphamide); and lifestyle factors such as obesity and smoking . Many of these risk factors have been identified through cluster analyses.…”

“…In addition, in accordance with the institutional policy, this study received an exemption from McGill University research ethics board review. This work was performed in a manner similar to that previously reported . Incidence data for MM and PCL were obtained from the Canadian Cancer Registry (CCR) for cases occurring in provinces outside Quebec and from le Registre Québécois du Cancer (LRQC) for cases in Quebec, whereas all mortality data were obtained from the Canadian Vital Statistics (CVS) database.…”

“…Accepted risk factors for MM include a positive family history, an advanced age, black race, and male sex, with an elevated risk also being demonstrated for activities leading to obesity or a poor diet and a lower socioeconomic status . Studies assessing environmental and occupational exposures worldwide have consistently shown an elevated risk of MM in farmers and in individuals exposed to pesticides.…”
