| Abstract | Although widely studied over the past forty years, personal use of hair dye generally has not been associated with overall cancer risk. The association between hair dye use and risk of bladder and hematopoietic cancers has been less conclusive. Most hair dye studies have been case-control studies conducted in Caucasian populations. We examined the relationship between personal hair dye use and cancer risk in a prospective cohort of 70,366 Chinese women. After an average of 7 years of follow-up, 2,437 women were newly diagnosed with cancer by December 31, 2005. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of cancer risk associated with hair dye use, adjusting for potential confounding factors. Compared with women who reported no hair dye use, ever users had an overall cancer risk of 0.89 (95% CI: 0.82, 0.97). No significant association was observed for several common cancers, including cancers of the breast (RR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.78, 1.09), lung (RR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.62, 1.09), stomach (RR: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.66, 1.21), and colorectum (RR=1.04, 95% CI: 0.84, 1.28). We also found no significant association with most other cancers, including bladder cancer (RR: 1.14, 95% CI: 0.56, 2.35) and hematopoietic cancers overall (RR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.59, 1.35) or their subtypes, including non-Hodgkin lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and leukemia. We generally found no evidence of an association between personal use of hair dye and cancer risk, although our study is limited by small numbers for certain cancer types. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
