2 wrz 2022 · In the IVW random effects model, genetic predisposition to higher lifetime amount of smoking was positively associated with risk of endometrial cancer (OR per 1-SD increment, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.06–1.62; P = 0.01; Table 2) with no evidence for heterogeneity (Cochran's Q P = 0.18).
Smoking cessation 1–4 years prior to baseline was significantly associated with endometrial carcinoma risk (RR 0.65, 95 % CI 0.48, 0.89), while cessation ≥10 years before baseline was not.
Our meta-analysis has assessed the relation between cigarette smoking and endometrial cancer risk. Overall, smoking was statistically significantly associated with 18% and 29% reduced risks of endometrial cancer in prospective and case-control studies, respectively.
factors as being associated or not associated with the risk of endometrial cancer. This information aims to improve understanding of the current state of the evidence relating to risk and protective factors for endometrial cancer.
Ever smoking was statistically significantly associated with a reduced risk of endometrial cancer among prospective studies (relative risk 0.81; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.74-0.88) and case-control studies (odds ratio 0.72; 95% CI, 0.66-0.79).
10 maj 2005 · These data indicate that both current and past smoking are associated with a lower risk of endometrial cancer. The findings provide insight into disease etiology and suggest that the influence of smoking on endometrial cancer risk occurs even in early adulthood, is long-lasting, and may not be attributed solely to short-term hormonal modulation.
