Multiple miscarriages are associated with the risk of ovarian cancer: results from the European prospective investigation into cancer and nutrition
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
While the risk of ovarian cancer clearly reduces with each full-term pregnancy, the effect of incomplete pregnancies is unclear. We investigated whether incomplete pregnancies (miscarriages and induced abortions) are associated with risk of epithelial ovarian cancer. This observational study was carried out in female participants of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition ...
Dietary Fibre Intake and Risks of Cancers of the Colon and Rectum in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
Earlier analyses within the EPIC study showed that dietary fibre intake was inversely associated with colorectal cancer risk, but results from some large cohort studies do not support this finding. We explored whether the association remained after longer follow-up with a near threefold increase in colorectal cancer cases, and if the association varied by gender and tumour location.
After a mean ...
Main nutrient patterns and colorectal cancer risk in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-10-20)
Background: Much of the current literature on diet–colorectal cancer (CRC) associations focused on studies of single foods/
nutrients, whereas less is known about nutrient patterns. We investigated the association between major nutrient patterns and
CRC risk in participants of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study.
<p>Methods: Among 477 312 participants, ...
