notable for the statement by the Russian Federation, which reported
that decreasing abortion rates were helping to decrease the overall
maternal mortality rates in that country.

The Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer notes a study in
the journal,
Cancer Epidemiology, reporting that Sri Lankan women with
abortions
more than tripled their breast cancer risk (3.42 odds ratio).
Abortion was the most significant factor in the study. Researchers
found
a significantly reduced risk associated with prolonged duration
of breastfeeding
and a nearly tripled increased risk from exposure to
passive smoking. The study
entitled, "Prolonged breastfeeding reduces
risk of breast cancer in Sri
Lankan women: A case-control study," was
led by Malintha De Silva and
colleagues from the University of
Colombo.
