Genetically Predicted Telomere Length is not Associated with Pancreatic Cancer Risk
Conclusions: Findings suggest that genetically predicted short TL is not associated with PDAC risk. Impact: Common genetic determinants of short TL do not appear to influence PDAC risk.

Trends in Radiation Therapy among Cancer Survivors in the United States, 2000-2030
Conclusions: The next several years are projected to see a large increase in the number of cancer survivors treated with radiation. Impact: This group of cancer survivors has unique needs given the long-term risks of radiation, and increased research and awareness are required to optimize health of this growing population.

Cancer Risk in Women Treated with Fertility Drugs According to Parity Status--A Registry-based Cohort Study
Conclusions: Clomiphene citrate appears associated with increased risk of ovarian and endometrial cancer. Elevations in risks of breast and thyroid cancer were less consistent across type of drug exposure and parity. Impact: Continued monitoring of fertility treatments is warranted.

Serum Trimethylamine N-oxide, Carnitine, Choline, and Betaine in Relation to Colorectal Cancer Risk in the Alpha Tocopherol, Beta Carotene Cancer Prevention Study
Conclusions: Higher serum choline concentration (but not TMAO, carnitine, or betaine) was associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer. Impact: Serum choline levels showed strong prognostic value for prediction of incident colorectal cancer risk across all anatomical subsites, suggesting a role of altered choline metabolism in colorectal cancer pathogenesis.

Family History of Breast Cancer, Breast Density, and Breast Cancer Risk in a U.S. Breast Cancer Screening Population
Conclusions: Even with adjustment for breast density, a history of breast cancer in both first- and second-degree relatives is more strongly associated with breast cancer than simple first-degree family history. Impact: Future efforts to improve breast cancer risk prediction models should evaluate detailed family history as a risk factor. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 26(6); 938–44. ©2017 AACR.

Longitudinal Changes in Volumetric Breast Density with Tamoxifen and Aromatase Inhibitors
Conclusions: Automated software can detect volumetric breast density changes among women on tamoxifen and AI. Impact: If declines in volumetric density predict breast cancer outcomes, these measures may be used as interim prognostic indicators. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 26(6); 930–7. ©2017 AACR.

Comparison of Triage Strategies for HPV-Positive Women: Canadian Cervical Cancer Screening Trial Results
Conclusion: Concerns surrounding HPV-based screening can be effectively mitigated via triage. Impact: Balancing the benefits of HPV-based primary cervical screening with informed management recommendations for HR-HPV+ women may decide the success of its widening utilization.

Serum C-peptide, Total and High Molecular Weight Adiponectin, and Pancreatic Cancer: Do Associations Differ by Smoking?
Conclusions: Associations of biomarkers of insulin secretion and sensitivity with PDA differ by smoking status. Smoking-induced pancreatic damage may explain the associations in smokers while mechanisms related to insulin resistance associations in nonsmokers. Impact: Future studies of these biomarkers and PDA should examine results by smoking status. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 26(6); 914–22. ©2017 AACR.

High Mammographic Density in Long-Term Night-Shift Workers: DDM-Spain/Var-DDM
Conclusions: Performing NSW was associated with higher MD only in women with more than 15 years of cumulated exposure. These findings warrant replication in futures studies. Impact: Our findings suggest that MD could play a role in the pathway between long-term NSW and breast cancer. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 26(6); 905–13. ©2017 AACR.

Measured Adiposity in Relation to Head and Neck Cancer Risk in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition
Conclusions: Central adiposity, particularly among women, may have a stronger association with head and neck cancer risk than previously estimated.

A Comparison of the Natural History of HPV Infection and Cervical Abnormalities among HIV-Positive and HIV-Negative Women in Senegal, Africa
Conclusions: Adverse HIV effects persist throughout HPV natural history stages. Impact: In the limited-resource setting of sub-Saharan Africa where cervical cancer screening is not widely available, the high-risk population of HIV-positive women may be ideal for targeted screening.
