Correlates of circulating ovarian cancer early detection markers and their contribution to discrimination of early detection models: results from the EPIC cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-03-20)
Background:
Ovarian cancer early detection markers CA125, CA15.3, HE4, and CA72.4 vary between healthy women,
limiting their utility for screening.

We evaluated cross-sectional relationships between lifestyle and reproductive factors and these markers
among controls (
n

Serologic markers of Chlamydia trachomatis and other sexually transmitted infections and subsequent ovarian cancer risk: Results from the EPIC cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-04-03)
A substantial proportion of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) arises in the fallopian tube and other epithelia of the upper genital tract; these epithelia may incur damage and neoplastic transformation after sexually transmitted infections (STI) and pelvic inflammatory disease. We investigated the hypothesis that past STI infection, particularly Chlamydia trachomatis, is associated with higher EOC ...
