  • * First, with 1990 paper in The Lancet, to propose that in utero exposures play a major role in breast cancer causation. * First in 1981, along with an independent paper published a few days later, to report that secondhand smoke increases the risk of lung cancer. * Dimitrios Trichopoulos studied 51 nonsmoking women hospitalized with lung cancer in Greece, and compared them with age-matched women hospitalized for other problems. The researchers determined that the cancer patients were significantly more likely to have been exposed to their husband’s cigarettes. Follow-up studies went on to confirm the risks of smoke inhalation by children in smoking households or in nonsmokers who live nearby. (en)
