Investigation on factors associated with ovarian cancer: an umbrella review of systematic review and meta-analyses

Abstract Following cervical and uterine cancer, ovarian cancer (OC) has the third rank in gynecologic cancers. It often remains non-diagnosed until it spreads throughout the pelvis and abdomen. Identification of the most effective risk factors can help take prevention measures concerning OC. Therefo...
