We analyzed risk for bone sarcoma using months of gonadal hormone exposure as a continuous variable.

To determine whether there was an association between endogenous sex hormones and risk of bone sarcoma, relative risk (RR) of incidence rates and hazard ratios for bone sarcoma were calculated for dogs subdivided on the basis of lifetime gonadal hormone exposure.

To characterize the dose - response relationship between endogenous sex hormones and bone sarcoma risk, a study providing information on lifetime gonadal hormone exposure would be required.

The possible mechanisms by which gonadal hormone exposure might protect against the development of bone sarcoma in both males and females are not immediately evident.

For females, the gonadal hormone exposure subgroups were: spayed before 1 year of age; spayed between 1 and 5 years of age; spayed after 5 years of age; and sexually intact.
