A case-control study evaluating environmental and genetic risk factors for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in Golestan Province, Iran
Randomized controlled trials were launched in 1985 to test the effects of multiple vitamin and mineral interventions on total mortality and total and cause-specific cancer mortality in a rural Chinese population
Studies initiated in 1995 to look for major susceptibility genes for upper gastrointestinal cancers and to identify the genetic changes associated with their development
Study of second gastric cancers among survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma and cancers of the testis, breast, and cervix
Case-control studies of stomach cancer in the United States, Poland, and Mexico
DCEG studies of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and gastric cancer
