Young boys who drink fluoridated tap water are at greater risk for a
rare bone cancer, Harvard researchers reported yesterday.

The study, published online yesterday in a Harvard-affiliated journal,
could intensify debate over fluoridation and mean more scrutiny for
Harvard’s Dr. Chester Douglass, accused of fudging the findings to
downplay a cancer link.

“It’s the best piece of work ever linking fluoride in tap water and
bone cancer. It’s pretty damning for (Douglass),” said Richard Wiles of
the Environmental Working Group, which filed a complaint with the
National Institutes of Health against Douglass.

Douglass, an epidemiology professor at Harvard’s School of Dental
Medicine, is paid as editor of the Colgate Oral Care Report, a
newsletter supported by the toothpaste maker.

What harvard affiliated journal is this? Kind of 
suspicious when the name of the journal and/or 
the precise citation is not mentioned.


After all, one could make a claim that the 
_Harvard Lampoon_ is a "Harvard-affiliated journal" . . .
