ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the relationship between N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) and the risk of digestive tract cancers.Methods The papers about the relationship between NDMA and the risk of digestive tract cancers published from 1980 to 2012 were retrieved following databases:Chinese BioMedical Literature Database (CBM),the Chinese Journal Full-text Database (CNKI),Wanfang Database,PubMed and EBSCO.The fix and random effect model was used and statistical analyses were conducted by using RevMan 5.1 software.Results Thirteen papers were found,in which 7 about digestive tract cancers were used in this Meta analysis.The NDMA had significant positive effect on the incidence of digestive tract cancers (RR=1.12,95％ CI:1.03-1.21).The relationship between NDMA and esophageal cancer was not significant (RR =1.18,95 ％CI:0.98-1.41) but NDMA could increase the risk of gastric cancer (RR=1.08,95％ CI:1.00-1.18).For the subtypes of esophageal and gastric cancer,NDMA had positive relationship with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (RR=l.72,95％ CI:1.01-2.96),but had no significant relationship with esophageal adenocarcinoma,cardiac carcinoma and gastric adenocarcinoma.Conclusion The population-based cohort studies have showed that the NDMA could significantly increase the risk of digestive tract cancers,but the effects differed with subtypes of esophageal and gastric cancer.However,it is necessary to collect more evidence due to the limited studies and obvious differences in the study design,sampling and exposure measurement of these cohort studies.

ABSTRACT
Due to the over negative report of adverse event following immunization (AEFI) by media,some people began to question the safety of vaccination.Date published since 2005 were collected by literature retrieval,mainly including relative AEFI date,current status of media report of AEFI,public awareness about AEFI.Public concern about the vaccination safety mainly focused on the serious diseases which might be caused,influence on immune system.Media' s over negative reactions to AEFI and lack of related knowledge in general public have led to the public' s concern about vaccination safety.Vaccination is the most economical and effective measure for the prevention of diseases and AEFI incidence rate is very low.Therefore,it is necessary for media to give more positive report about vaccination safety.
