Serum Dioxin Concentrations and Breast Cancer Risk in the Seveso Women's Health Study (original) (raw)

This study investigates the association between serum dioxin concentrations and breast cancer risk in women from the Seveso Women's Health Study. Following an accidental explosion in 1976 that led to high TCDD exposure, a cohort was analyzed. The results indicate that higher serum TCDD levels may be linked to increased breast cancer risk, especially in younger women; however, the overall implications need to be considered in the context of varying exposure levels and the need for further investigation.
