Kaaks R, Van Noord PAH, Tonkelaar ID, et al., 1998, Breast-cancer incidence in relation to height, weight and body-fat distribution in the Dutch 'DOM' cohort, International Journal of Cancer, Vol: 76, Pages: 647-651, ISSN: 0020-7136
In a cohort of 11,663 participants in a breast-cancer screening program, height, weight, waist circumference and hip circumference were measured, and information about menstrual and reproductive history was obtained by questionnaire. After exclusion of 83 women with unclear menopausal status, the subjects were divided into 3 sub-cohorts: 5,891 women who were pre- menopausal at the time of data collection, 3,521 women who had entered the study after natural menopause, and 2068 women who had been hysterectomized and/or ovariectomized. After a median follow-up of 10.6 years, 147, 76 and 52 incident cases of breast cancer were detected in the 3 respective sub- cohorts. No statistically significant association was found in any of the sub-cohorts between breast-cancer risk and height, weight, body-mass index (BMI) or hip circumference. In the sub-cohort of women with natural menopause, however, risk of breast cancer was positively and significantly associated with the ratio of waist-to-hip circumferences (WHR) (RR = 2.63 for upper vs. lower quartile), and this association did not change after adjustment for variations in disease risk related to body height and weight. Although similar to observations in other cohort studies showing positive associations between obesity and breast-cancer risk in post-menopausal women, our results are different, in that WHR and not BMI appears to be the more specific indicator of breast-cancer risk.

Kaaks R, Riboli E, Sinha R, 1997, Biochemical markers of dietary intake., IARC Sci Publ, Pages: 103-126, ISSN: 0300-5038
The primary objective of nutritional epidemiology is to identify, in combination with other forms of research, which aspects of diet and nutritional factors are causally related to cancer development. However, traditional epidemiology can evaluate with only a limited degree of specificity to which individual dietary factors an increased occurrence of cancer can be attributed. The two main reasons for this are: (1) dietary intake levels of specific foods or food constituents can be strongly intercorrelated; (2) dietary intake levels of specific food constituents are generally measured with rather large errors. Biochemical markers are increasingly seen as measurements that may help to overcome some of the above-mentioned methodological problems in nutritional epidemiology.
