Examining the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on invasive breast cancer incidence in Ireland: A population-based study Open
These findings demonstrate reductions in invasive breast cancer incidence and no difference in one-year survival following the pandemic onset. Additional studies to determine the longer-term COVID-19 impact are needed.

Data from Smoking at Diagnosis Is an Independent Prognostic Factor for Cancer-Specific Survival in Head and Neck Cancer: Findings from a Large, Population-Based Study Open
Background: Some studies suggest smoking may result in poorer clinical outcomes in head and neck cancer, but the evidence is heterogeneous and some of it is poor quality. In a large, population-based, study we investigated: (i) whether smo…

Usefulness of Nuclear Whole-Body Bone Scanning for Diagnosis of Leprosy Open
Leprosy, or Hansen's disease, is rare in the United States. Given its rarity, as well as the pathognomonic dermatologic findings, there are few cases in which nuclear medicine imaging plays a role in the diagnostic workup. We present a 39-…

Association between smoking at diagnosis and cause‐specific survival in patients with rectal cancer: Results from a population‐based analysis of 10,794 cases Open
Background Currently, the 5‐year survival rate for rectal cancer remains at <60%. The identification of potentially modifiable prognostic factors would be of considerable public health importance. A few studies have suggested associations …

Smoking at diagnosis significantly decreases 5‐year cancer‐specific survival in a population‐based cohort of 18 166 colon cancer patients Open
Summary Background Accumulating evidence suggests smoking may adversely affect cancer patients’ outcomes. Previous studies of smoking and survival in colon cancer have been limited by size and/or lack of a population basis and results have…
