Preston D, Kitahara C, Freedman D, Sigurdson A, Simon S, Little M, et al.
Br J Cancer . 2016 Sep; 115(9):1105-1112. PMID: 27623235
Background: Although high-dose ionising radiation is associated with increased breast cancer risks, the association with protracted low-dose-rate exposures remains unclear. The US Radiologic Technologist study provides an opportunity to examine...

Gu F, Pfeiffer R, Bhattacharjee S, Han S, Taylor P, Berndt S, et al.
Br J Cancer . 2013 Jan; 108(6):1378-86. PMID: 23361049
Background: The chromosome 9p21.3 region has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple cancers. Methods: We systematically examined up to 203 tagging SNPs of 22 genes on 9p21.3 (19.9-32.8 Mb)...

Sigurdson A, Stram D
Ann ICRP . 2012 Oct; 41(3-4):108-16. PMID: 23089009
Several lines of evidence suggest that risk estimates for cancer associated with radiation exposure incorporate individuals who are more and less inherently susceptible to the carcinogenic effects of radiation, and...

Schonfeld S, Ron E, Kitahara C, Brenner A, Park Y, Sigurdson A, et al.
Cancer Epidemiol . 2011 Aug; 35(6):e85-90. PMID: 21852218
Background: Worldwide, thyroid cancer incidence rates are higher among women than men. While this suggests a possible etiologic role of female sex hormones, clear associations between hormonal and reproductive factors...

Trabert B, Sigurdson A, Sweeney A, Amato R, Strom S, McGlynn K
Int J Androl . 2010 Dec; 34(4 Pt 2):e59-67. PMID: 21128977
Androgen levels during critical periods of testicular development may be involved in the aetiology of testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT). We evaluated the roles of adolescent and early adult life...

Yong L, Sigurdson A, Ward E, Waters M, Whelan E, Petersen M, et al.
Occup Environ Med . 2008 Dec; 66(1):56-62. PMID: 19074211
Background: Chromosome translocations are an established biomarker of cumulative exposure to external ionising radiation. Airline pilots are exposed to cosmic ionising radiation, but few flight crew studies have examined translocations...

Johnson K, Alexander B, Doody M, Sigurdson A, Linet M, Spector L, et al.
Br J Cancer . 2008 Jul; 99(3):545-50. PMID: 18665174
We examined the risk of childhood cancer (<20 years) among 105 950 offspring born in 1921-1984 to US radiologic technologist (USRT) cohort members. Parental occupational in utero and preconception ionising...

Cook M, Sigurdson A, Jones I, Thomas C, Graubard B, Korde L, et al.
Int J Androl . 2008 Jul; 32(6):599-606. PMID: 18657195
Testicular germ cell tumors are comprised of two histologic groups, seminomas and non-seminomas. We postulated that the possible divergent pathogeneses of these histologies may be partially explained by variable levels...

El-Zein R, Bondy M, Wang L, de Andrade M, Sigurdson A, Bruner J, et al.
Mutat Res . 2001 Jan; 490(1):35-44. PMID: 11152970
Chromosome instability (CIN) measured as chromosome aberrations has long been suggested as a cancer susceptibility biomarker. Conventional cytogenetic end-points are now being improved by combining molecular methods, which increases the...
