headphone-wearing American
pedestrians have been struck
by
trains, cars, or other
vehicles since 2004,

pedestrians face when they

Processed meats such as
sausage, bacon, and cold cuts
may increase the
risk of
pancreatic cancer, but only
slightly, researchers found.
For
every 50-gram
serving of processed meat per
day -- a couple of slices of
ham, for instance -- relative
risk of the disease rose by
19%.
Red
meat also
posed a 29% greater relative
risk of pancreatic cancer to
men,
they found.
