04/01/1981 - "A summary of these studies is presented, which indicates that there is potentially an increased risk of bladder, colon, and rectum cancer from drinking waters containing trihalomethanes."

01/01/2010 - "Trihalomethanes in drinking water and the risk of death from rectal cancer: does hardness in drinking water matter?"
01/01/1998 - "Rectal cancer risk was also associated with several different measures of estimated lifetime trihalomethane exposure. "

07/01/2011 - "The main objectives of this study were to investigate the concentration and lifetime cancer risk and hazard index of trihalomethanes (THMs) through multiple routes like oral ingestion, dermal absorption, and inhalation exposure in the water samples collected at water treatment plant endpoints. "
11/15/2007 - "This study intends to calculate the lifetime cancer risks resulting from intakes of trihalomethanes (THMs) in drinking water based on the presence of each THM species. "
06/01/2015 - "Human health cancer risk for total trihalomethanes (TTHMs) through ingestion and dermal routes were estimated in "acceptable-low risk" (≥1.0E-06; ≤5.10E-05), whereas through inhalation route it was estimated under "acceptable-high risk" (≥5.10E-05; ≤1.0E-04) category. "
06/01/2015 - "Life-time human health risk of cancer attributed to trihalomethanes in drinking water in an urban-industrialized area of Karachi (Pakistan) was conducted through multiple pathways of exposure. "
03/01/2015 - "The lifetime cancer risk and the hazard index of trihalomethanes (THMs) through oral ingestion, dermal absorption, and inhalation exposure from supply water of five WTPs were analysed. "

01/01/2011 - "A matched case-control study was used to investigate the relationship between the risk of death attributed to colon cancer and exposure to total trihalomethanes (TTHM) in drinking water in 53 municipalities in Taiwan. "
01/01/2009 - "A matched case-control study was used to investigate the relationship between the risk of death attributed to colon cancer and exposure to total trihalomethanes (TTHM) in drinking water in 65 municipalities in Taiwan. "
01/01/2009 - "Trihalomethanes in drinking water and the risk of death from colon cancer in Taiwan."
01/01/1998 - "For colon cancer and subsites, we detected no important increase in risk associated with duration of chlorinated surface water, nor with trihalomethane estimates. "
06/01/1987 - "A case-control study was conducted to test the hypothesis that chronic ingestion of trihalomethanes (THMs), occurring as chlorination byproducts in drinking water, carries a risk of colon cancer. "

02/15/2007 - "This study assessed the magnitude of bias introduced by fitting logistic versus Cox models using left-truncated data from a 1998 US pregnancy cohort study (n = 5,104) of trihalomethanes and spontaneous abortion. "
11/01/2001 - "We used two exposure assessment methods, one based on utility-wide sampling averages, and one based on measurements from the utility sampling site closest to the subject's residence, to reestimate total trihalomethane (TTHM) exposure for 4212 participants in a preexisting study of risk factors for spontaneous abortion (SAB). "
11/01/2001 - "Influence of exposure assessment methods on risk estimates in an epidemiologic study of total trihalomethane exposure and spontaneous abortion."
03/01/1998 - "Women who drank > or = 5 glasses per day of cold tapwater containing > or = 75 micrograms per liter total trihalomethanes had an adjusted odds ratio (OR) of 1.8 for spontaneous abortion [95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.1-3.0]. "
03/01/1998 - "We examined exposure to trihalomethanes and spontaneous abortion in a prospective study of 5,144 pregnant women in a prepaid health plan. "

12/10/2002 - "In the present study we addressed the capability of trihalomethanes (THMs) administered in drinking water to induce aberrant crypt foci (ACF), early putative preneoplastic lesions, in the colons of male F344/N rats and B6C3F(1) mice. "
