::: Sorry for the delay, but I've finally found time to retrieve and review the Beral Lancet article again, and the statement here is directly supported by the lower section of Figure 2 in that article.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 23:35, 1 April 2008 (EDT)

Andy, thanks for the reply. However, I don't understand your reasoning. The statement that I was referring to was #10, that studies showing no risk are smaller than studies showing a risk, in case that was unclear. You said that the lower section of Figure 2 of the article supports that statement. What part of the figure? I am looking at it, and as I mentioned above, the studies from the bottom part of the figure (the retrospective studies), which are the ones you state show the ABC link, have an average of about 2200 subjects. The prospective studies in the upper section of the figure, which are prospective and in combination do not support an ABC link, have an average of about 3300 subjects. If you want more specifics, the prospective studies have, on average, about 300 subjects with cancer, compared to an average of 157 for the retrospective studies. For both sets of studies, a little less than 10% of the subjects received a cancer diagnosis. Perhaps you could clarify your statement? Thank you. [[User:Murray|Murray]] 19:33, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
If no one minds, I'm going to delete #4. Even though fertility declines with age, that has nothing to do with abortion, and abortion doesn't cause STD's. [[User:Blinkadyblink|Blinkadyblink]] 17:56, 22 March 2008 (EDT)
