Genetic Susceptibility to Radiation Induced Thyroid Cancer

Case control on thyroid cancer occuring in a cohort of 7300 subjects treated during their childhood, mostly by radiotherapy, for a skin Angioma at Gustave Roussy, Villejuif France between 1947 and 1973. This case control study, which is included in a larger european project, aims to investigate the DNA variant interacting with the risk of radiation induced thyroid cancer after irradiation. The sutdy is planed to include about 30 cases and 30 controls. Matching criteria are date of birth, gender, and age at irradiation.

Mapping Antenatal Maternal Stress

This study recruits women from early-mid pregnancy and later follows their children after birth, tracking both the mother and child until the child reaches at least 4 years of age. The study aims to examine the determinants of maternal mental health during pregnancy and how genetic factors could influence maternal mental health and child outcomes.

Mapping Antenatal Maternal Stress - Child Outcomes

This study is a sub-study of Mapping Antenatal Maternal Stress (MAMS). Women previously enrolled in MAMS, their children and their partners/spouses were recruited for a set of more comprehensive assessments to characterise early neurodevelopmental outcomes in children, their associations with antenatal and postnatal maternal emotional health, and how paternal genetics, mental health and parenting styles and perceptions may influence this relationship.

ScreenIng of Genetic Susceptibility Genes for Breast Cancer Patients in CHinese communiTies

This is a community-based prospective study and the research object is breast cancer patients. It is planned to take the community as the unit to inform and collect the breast cancer patients who voluntarily participate to carry out the detection of BRCA1, BRCA2, PTEN, CHEK2 and PALB2 genes through the community health service center.
