Gender Differences in Sinonasal Cancer Incidence: Data from the Italian Registry.

Background: Although rare, sinonasal cancers (SNCs) have a high occupational attributable fraction.

Cholangiocarcinoma and Occupational Exposure to Asbestos: Insights From the Italian Pooled Cohort Study.

Background: Recent studies supported the association between occupational exposure to asbestos and risk of cholangiocarcinoma (CC). Aim of the present study is to investigate this association using an update of mortality data from the Italian pooled asbestos cohort study and to test record linkage to Cancer Registries to distinguish between hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic/extrahepatic forms of CC.

Methods: The update of a large cohort study pooling 52 Italian industrial cohorts of workers formerly exposed to asbestos was carried out.

Traumatic brain injury incidence and mortality: a large population-based study.

Objectives: Provide a comprehensive epidemiological outlook encompassing TBI incidence, healthcare provision and mortality.

Methods: Population-based study in Veneto (4.
