Can Fam Physician. 1977 Oct;23:94-5.
Newspapers, magazines, television and the medical press have all carried articles warning against a relationship between estrogens and cancer. The main causes of this outbreak seem to have been articles appearing in the New England Journal of Medicine in December 1975 and the spring of 1976.The evidence for and against a causal relationship is reviewed and no basis found for this accusation. The article goes on to review what is known about the effect of estrogens on osteoporosis, thromboembolism and arteriosclerosis.
报纸、杂志、电视和医学媒体都刊登了警告雌激素与癌症之间存在关系的文章。这种爆发的主要原因似乎是 1975 年 12 月和 1976 年春天出现在《新英格兰医学杂志》上的文章。对因果关系的证据进行了审查,没有发现这种指控的依据。本文还回顾了雌激素对骨质疏松症、血栓栓塞和动脉硬化的影响。
