As for the potential adverse effects on cancer risk, most information on HRT and breast cancer is included in a re-analysis of individual data from 51 epidemiological studies (including over 90% of the world's data), showing a 2.3% increase of the relative risk of breast cancer for each year of use which, however, levels off after stopping use. This corresponds to a cumulative excess of approximately 2 in 1,000 women who started taking HRT at age 50 and used it for 5 years, 6 in 1,000 women who used it for 10 years and 12 in 1,000 women who used it for 15 years.

The data on epithelial ovarian cancer allows exclusion of any strong association with HRT, although a moderate positive relationship remains open to debate. As for other adverse effects of HRT, the relationship between HRT and stroke is still debated, although any strong and consistent association can be excluded. Current HRT use, but not past use, is associated with venous and pulmonary thromboembolism.

Direct Quotes: In a radio interview Monday morning, Hillary Clinton was asked to name something she carries with her everywhere she goes. “Hot sauce,” she answered. “Yeah.” The Clinton campaign has confirmed to TIME the type and brand of hot sauce now toted by the Democratic front runner for the presidential nomination: Ninja Squirrel, a Sriracha from the in-house brand of Texas-based Whole Foods Market. “And we continue to carry chili flakes and jalapeños around,” says Clinton campaign spokesperson Nick Merrill. Clinton was speaking to one of New York’s largest hip-hop and R&B stat...

Joe Biden should take the same test.

https://www.nytimes.com/article/trump-cognitive-test.html Joe Biden should take the same test. The media, including the Washington Post, continued to down play the difficulty of the test and even said the test is too “blunt” of an instrument and for most people it’s too “easy” and “the test is not that difficult”. If that is true, then the genius that is president now should have no problem! Direct Quote: But it is by no means definitive, or even diagnostic, experts pointed out. And as the president tries to draw a contrast between his mental faculties and those of Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., a fellow septuagenarian he expects to face off against in November’s election, some experts criticize his politicization of such cognitive screening tests. “You would think he would understand clearly what the test result was and why the test was done,” Dr. Karlawish said, “and not turn it into a competition about mental health.” This screening test was designed about 20 years ago as a pos...
