Brain tumors are the leading cause of death from childhood cancer.
That's very encouraging. Talk about an easy preventive. Preston-Martin and her colleagues interviewed 540 mothers of children under age 19 with primary brain tumor and mothers of 801 control children. All were residents of 19 counties on the U.S. West Coast. The study was part of an international study of childhood brain tumor that Preston-Martin has been conducting for the past 12 years.
