as I wrote above, disentagling one compound from all the other factors is never easy and is a main problem of epidemiologic studies.
De Roos et al., 2005, tried that by statistically adjusting their results for factors like "age, smoking, other pesticides, alcohol, family history of cancer". Doing this they found glyphosate to increase the risk for a special cancer type (non hopkins lymphoma) by a factor of 2.6. That means if you are a farmworker using glyphosate, your annual risk of getting that cancer is about 0.026% instead of 0.01%.

Thanks for the precisions :)
np, was in a super-boring lab meeting, time enough to look it up again ;-)
Lol! I see ;)
