PrimaryNumber of Participants Diagnosed With Any of the Cancers Under Investigation Who Were Regularly Exposed to the Indicated AntidepressantJanuary 1, 1996 - December 31, 2006
The following are the cancers under investigation: colorectal, lung, bladder, uterus, breast, and prostate. Cancer case were nested within a cohort of new antidepressant users. New antidepressant users were defined as no previous antidepressant prescription in the previous 6 months. Cases were identified and matched with controls from the same new-user cohort. Cal year, calendar year; dx, diagnosis; IBD, Inflammatory Bowel Disease; OC, oral contraceptive; HRT/ERT, hormone replacement therapy/estrogen replacement therapy; NSAID, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug.
