The book explores epidemiologic methods that are typically used in migrant studies, providing descriptive epidemiology of cancer patterns separately in Chinese, Japanese, Filipino and other Asian ethnic groups including Asian Indians, Koreans, Vietnamese, and other Southeast Asians. A major focus of the volume provides reviews of analytic risk factors for specific cancer sites including lung, colorectal, prostate, breast, liver and more. These chapters aim to explain the increases or decreases in incidence rates of various cancers upon migration, paying attention to changing risk factor prevalence, the importance of timing of exposures, and other co-factors important in the etiology of these cancers. Genetic determinants and gene-environment relationships associated with specific cancers are also discussed.. This first of its kind volume that is devoted to studies of cancer in Asian Americans provides a foundation to better understanding of environmental and lifestyle causes of cancer in | | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | | 关键词 | cancer etiology; cancer patterns; epidemiologic methods; mortality patterns; cancer epidemiology | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-41118-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-82270-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-41118-7 | | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016 |
