PreveCan, an app for cancer prevention based on the 2018 WCRF/Aicr guidelines
To develop and asses the usability of a Spanish-language mobile application (PreveCan) to educate the public about the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) and American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) recommendations for cancer prevention. The app was developed using a user-centred design approach involving epidemiology, medical, nutrition and software design experts and public. PreveCan educates users on WCRF/AICR recommendations rating their …

Validation of obesity based on self-reported data in Spanish women participants in breast cancer screening programmes
Quantification of self-reported obesity entails a considerable underestimation of this problem, thereby questioning its validity. The new cut-off points established in this study and the predictive equation both allow for more accurate estimation of these prevalences
Study of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma mortality associated with industrial pollution in Spain, using Poisson models
The reported association between exposure to air pollution from the paper, pulp and board industry and NHL mortality is independent of the model used. Inclusion of spatial random effects terms in the risk estimate improves the study of associations between environmental exposures and mortality.The EPER could be of great utility when studying the effects of industrial pollution on the health of the population
Decline in age at menarche among Spanish women born from 1925 to 1962
We report a population-based study showing a downward trend in age of onset of menarche among Spanish women born in the period 1925-1962, something that is more pronounced among women born in rural settings and varies geographically
Health-related quality of life and mental health in the medium-term aftermath of the Prestige oil spill in Galiza (Spain)
Almost one and a half years after the accident, worse HRQoL and mental health levels were not in evidence among subjects exposed to the oil-spill. Nevertheless, some of the scales suggest the possibility of slight impact on the mental health of residents in the affected areas
Municipal mortality due to thyroid cancer in Spain
The observed mortality pattern coincides with areas in Spain where goiter has been declared endemic. The higher frequency in these same areas of undifferentiated, more aggressive carcinomas could be reflected in the mortality figures. Other unknown genetic or environmental factors could also play a role in the etiology of this tumor
Association between health information, use of protective devices and occurrence of acute health problems in the Prestige oil spill clean-up in Asturias and Cantabria (Spain)
Proper health-protection briefing was associated with greater use of protective devices and lower frequency of health problems. Among seamen, however, the results indicate poorer dissemination of information and the need of specific guidelines for removing fuel-oil at sea
