Reaction time and incident cancer: 25 years of follow-up of study members in the UK Health and Lifestyle Survey.

<h4>Objectives</h4>To investigate the association of reaction time with cancer incidence.<h4>Methods</h4>6900 individuals aged 18 to 94 years who participated in the UK Health and Lifestyle Survey in 1984/1985 and were followed for a cancer registration for 25 years.<h4>...
