Abstract
Antibiotic use in 759 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) patients and 589 controls was compared. Neither total antibiotic use (odds ratio=0.7, 95% confidence interval=0.5–1.2), nor antibiotic use by site, was associated with total NHL, or NHL subtypes. There were no trends with frequency or age at first use (P trend=0.23 and 0.26, respectively).British Journal of Cancer (2008) 98, 161–164. doi:10.1038/sj.bjc.6604127 www.bjcancer.com Published online 4 December 2007 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
