It has been suggested that paracetamol reduces the risk for ovarian cancer. We examined the association between prescription use of paracetamol and ovarian cancer risk in a nationwide case-control study nested within the Danish female population. Case patients (n = 3471) were all women with a first diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer during the period from 2000 to 2009. Population control subjects (n = 50576) were selected by risk set sampling. Data were derived from prescription and other nationwide registries. Conditional logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and two-sided 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for ovarian cancer associated with use of paracetamol or nonaspirin nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). All statistical tests were two-sided. Use of paracetamol was associated with a reduced odds ratio for ovarian cancer (OR = 0.82; 95% CI = 0.74 to 0.92; P < .001) compared with nonuse, and the odds ratio decreased further with long-term (≥10 years), high-intensity paracetamol use (OR = 0.45; 95% CI = 0.24 to 0.86; P = .02). Use of nonaspirin NSAIDs was not associated with ovarian cancer risk.
有人认为对乙酰氨基酚可降低卵巢癌的发病风险。我们通过巢式病例对照研究,在丹麦女性人群中,调查了处方使用对乙酰氨基酚与卵巢癌风险之间的相关性。病例患者(n = 3471)均为 2000 年至 2009 年期间初次诊断为上皮性卵巢癌的女性。人群对照受试者(n = 50576)通过风险集抽样选择。数据来自处方和其他全国性登记处。采用条件 logistic 回归来估计与使用对乙酰氨基酚或非阿司匹林非甾体抗炎药(NSAIDs)相关的卵巢癌的比值比(OR)和双侧 95%置信区间(CI)。所有统计检验均为双侧。与不使用者相比,使用对乙酰氨基酚与卵巢癌的比值比降低(OR = 0.82;95%CI = 0.74 至 0.92;P <.001),长期(≥10 年)、高强度使用对乙酰氨基酚的比值比进一步降低(OR = 0.45;95%CI = 0.24 至 0.86;P =.02)。使用非阿司匹林 NSAIDs 与卵巢癌风险无关。
