01:0701:07, 9 October 2023 diff hist +18 m Brain tumor →Cause: sentence flow changes
01:0601:06, 9 October 2023 diff hist −47 Brain tumor →Cause: I improved the readability of this entry, adding links to the relevant pages that explain complex concepts such as "stochastic".

02:0502:05, 29 August 2023 diff hist +1,047 Correlation does not imply causation →Causal analysis: Provided an example of bidirectional relationships with references.

23:3523:35, 23 July 2023 diff hist +657 COVID-19 vaccine clinical research →Studies: Adding a study on an essentially naive Australian population that was published in Australia's leading medical journal. I was the person that led the study as well.
23:2423:24, 23 July 2023 diff hist +484 m Glioblastoma →Surgery: Simply adding further references.
23:2123:21, 23 July 2023 diff hist +591 m Glioblastoma →Prognosis: Addition of some references that form part of how we know survival rates.
23:1523:15, 23 July 2023 diff hist −38 Glioblastoma →Other: The inclusion of "radiation from medical imaging" in a statement about non-ionizing radiation not causing brain cancer is grossly incorrect. Radiation from medical imaging is ionizing (the key difference) and has been shown to increase the risk of brain cancer.

00:4300:43, 19 June 2023 diff hist +354 m CT scan →Cancer: fixed a reference
00:4100:41, 19 June 2023 diff hist +2,201 CT scan →Cancer: This was a modification of the page to better improve the flow of the writing, and highlight critical, major population based studies that evaluate the risks of CT scan radiation. The issue prior to the edit was the writing while grammatically correct, was incorrect, with no paragraph to paragraph flow. I have removed no references, and only added a couple key references that should be listed. I am a key researcher in this field, having done my phd thesis in radiation epidemiology.

05:5705:57, 5 June 2023 diff hist +20 m Glioma →Radiation: typo and flow change
05:5605:56, 5 June 2023 diff hist +36 m Anaplastic astrocytoma →Causes: typos
05:5405:54, 5 June 2023 diff hist +663 m Anaplastic astrocytoma →Causes: I am a senior researcher in the field of brain tumor epidemiology and have been working in this field for over a decade. Ionizing radiation is a key cause of brain cancers, even though the overall risk is small.
05:5205:52, 5 June 2023 diff hist +21 Glioma →Radiation
05:5205:52, 5 June 2023 diff hist +662 m Glioma →Radiation: I've added an important change to highlight the important role of radiation. I am a senior researcher in this field.
05:4405:44, 5 June 2023 diff hist +533 m Glioblastoma →Risk factors: I am updating the page to include the best known risk factor for glioblastomas -> ionizing radiation, especially that from CT scans. I've been a researcher in the field of brain tumor epidemiology for over a decade.
05:3305:33, 5 June 2023 diff hist +28 m Brain tumor Fixed reference 8, added DOI

05:2805:28, 1 June 2023 diff hist +801 m Brain tumor The changes include highlighting the key known cause of brain cancer. Having personally led the studies on the epidemiology and causal relationships of brain cancer, this should be clearer in wikipedia. Ionising radiation is the key known causal agent of brain cancers.
