Generational Risks for Cancers Not Related to Tobacco, Screening, or Treatment in the United States.

The article presents a study which assesses cancer trends in the U.S. by evaluating generational risk for three cancer groups including tobacco-related cancer, screen-detectable cancer, and cancer which are unrelated to tobacco or screening. Data from the U.S. Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program were analyzed to obtain specific data of incidence and mortality. Results revealed higher risks of cancer unrelated to tobacco or screening in adults compared to their parents.
