reduce this increased risk, progestins have been added to estrogen replacement therapy for between 5 and 15 days (usually 7 or 10 days) per "month" in a sequential fashion (sequential estrogen-progestin [...] cancer risk factors. RESULTS: The adjusted OR was 2.17 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.91-2.47) per 5 years of estrogen replacement therapy use (based on 422 users among the case subjects and 262 users [...] (effectively 7 days) per month, the adjusted OR was only slightly reduced to 1.87...

Engagement in organised sport between 2014 and 2019 [...] is associated with sustaining or enhancing physical activity among children and adolescents during 5 years of follow-up. METHODS: The longitudinal study was nested in the population-based SOPHYA (Swiss [...] the Y+S database as the number of days with at least one activity in...
