Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between pregnancy-related factors and the risk of childhood lymphoma, focusing on non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) in a large French case-control analysis.
- Results indicate that maternal coffee and alcohol consumption during pregnancy, as well as paternal smoking, are associated with an increased risk of childhood NHL, with a dose-response relation seen in coffee intake.
- The research suggests that understanding these associations can improve knowledge of childhood lymphoma aetiology, although further studies are needed to confirm these findings.
