Effects of pesticide exposure on time to pregnancy: results of a multicenter study in France and Denmark

Article Abstract:

No relationship has been found between fertility, as measured by time to pregnancy, that is, the time taken for a couple to conceive once they decide they want to, and male exposure to pesticides. Effects of pesticide exposure on time to pregnancy have been investigated in a multicenter study of farmers, rural workers and greenhouse workers in Denmark and France.

Voluntary and involuntary weight loss: associations with long term mortality in 9,228 middle-aged and elderly men

Article Abstract:

Voluntary and involuntary weight loss have been studied in 9,228 men, 40-65 years of age, to determine the association, if any, with long-term mortality. Self-reported dieting status was the basis of the study. It appears that weight loss, whether voluntary or involuntary, may be associated with a small increase in the risk of mortality from all causes.

Occupational chlorophenol exposure and soft tissue sarcoma risk among men aged 30-60 years

Article Abstract:

Researchers analyzed information from the Selected Cancers Study, which was a population-based study that included 295 male soft tissue sarcoma cases. The jobs rated with high intensity involved wood preservation, while others involved cutting oils. The soft tissue sarcoma risk was highly associated with having high-intensity chlorophenol exposure.
