- Abstract:
- ... Calcium and, to a lesser extent, dairy products are consistently modestly inversely associated with colorectal cancer (CRC). Dairy products may contain components other than calcium and fat, such as insulin-like growth factor-1, that may affect CRC risk. In the prospective Iowa Women’s Health Study, calcium, dairy product, and vitamin D intakes were assessed using a semiquantitative food frequency ...

- Abstract:
- ... Introduction: Consumption of nuts, which contain multiple anti-carcinogenic components, has been inversely associated with colorectal cancer (CRC), particularly among women, but has not been investigated in relation to colorectal adenoma, the immediate precursor to most CRCs. Methods: We pooled data from three case-control studies of incident, sporadic colorectal adenoma (n = 785 cases, 2107 contr ...

- Abstract:

We sought to describe dietary intake and quality in AABCS and examine associations with demographic, social, lifestyle, and body composition factors to potentially inform the development of effective dietary interventions. Methods: Baseline data from a prospective weight loss trial of 210 AABC ...

- Abstract:

Chronic inflammation is implicated in breast cancer (BrCa) development; however, studies on the association of the inflammatory potential of diet and breast cancer have produced conflicting results. With this as background, we investigated the association between dietary inflammatory index (DII®) scores and BrCa risk in an Iranian case-control study. In this study, 136 newly diagnosed breast cance ...

We aimed to assess the relation between healthy eating index 2010 (HEI-2010) and BrCa risk in a case-control study in Iranian women. Method: The 272 hospitalized controls and 136 newly diagnosed BrCa cases were recruited from two major hospitals. Food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) data we ...

Therefore, identification of modifiable risk factors for this disease is warranted. Using the Patient Epidemiology Data System (PEDS), collected from 1981 to 1998 at Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY, we conducted a hospital-based, case-control analysis of self-report ...

- Abstract:
- ... The results of dairy food consumption and breast cancer risk are conflicting, and their relationship has not previously been studied in China. The objective of this study is to examine the association between dairy products, calcium intake, and breast cancer risk among Chinese women. A hospital-based case-control study was conducted among Chinese women in the Guangdong province from June 2007 to A ...

- Abstract:
- ... Estrogen receptor (ER) and/or progesterone receptor (PR) expression has been associated with more favorable breast cancer prognosis. Results on the differential association of diet with ER and/or PR positive and negative tumors have been inconclusive. In a large case-control study conducted in Athens, Greece, we investigated whether diet is associated with the expression of ER-alpha or PR in mamma ...

Dietary intake of folate, vitamins B6 and B12 in the last 6 mo of pregnancy from 333 cases and 695 frequency-matched controls were assessed using a food frequency questionnaire. Data were analyzed using unconditional ...

- Abstract:
- ... Phytoestrogens are structurally similar to estrogens and may affect breast cancer risk by mimicking estrogenic/antiestrogenic properties. In Western societies, whole grains and possibly soy foods are rich sources of phytoestrogens. A population-based case-control study in German postmenopausal women was used to evaluate the association of phytoestrogen-rich foods and dietary lignans with breast ca ...
