Lifetime alcohol use and overall and cause-specific mortality in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and nutrition (EPIC) study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)
Combined impact of healthy lifestyle factors on colorectal cancer: A large European cohort study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)
Circulating biomarkers of one-carbon metabolism in relation to renal cell carcinoma incidence and survival
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-11-05)
The etiology of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is only partially understood, but a metabolic component appears likely. We investigated biomarkers of one-carbon metabolism and RCC onset and survival.
Methods The European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) recruited 385747 participants with blood samples between 1992 and 2000, and this analysis included 556 RCC case-control pairs. ...
Consumption of dairy products and colorectal cancer in the European prospective investigation into cancer and nutrition (EPIC)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
Background: Prospective studies have consistently reported lower colorectal cancer risks associated with higher intakes of
total dairy products, total milk and dietary calcium. However, less is known about whether the inverse associations vary for
individual dairy products with differing fat contents.
Materials and Methods: In the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC), ...
Macronutrient composition of the diet and prospective weight change in participants of the EPIC-PANACEA study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
Background: The effect of the macronutrient composition of the usual diet on long term weight maintenance remains
controversial.
Methods: 373,803 subjects aged 25–70 years were recruited in 10 European countries (1992–2000) in the PANACEA project
of the EPIC cohort. Diet was assessed at baseline using country-specific validated questionnaires and weight and height
were measured at baseline and ...
Dietary fatty acids, macronutrient substitutions, food sources and incidence of coronary heart disease: Findings from the EPIC-CVD case-cohort study across nine european countries
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-07)
BACKGROUND: There is controversy about associations between total dietary fatty acids, their classes (saturated fatty acids
[SFAs], monounsaturated fatty acids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids), and risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Specifically,
the relevance of food sources of SFAs to CHD associations is uncertain.<p>
METHODS AND RESULTS: We conducted a case-cohort study involving 10 529 ...
Association of menopausal characteristics and risk of coronary heart disease: A pan-European case-cohort analysis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-22)
<i>Background</i>
- Earlier age at menopause has been associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), but the shape of association and role of established cardiovascular risk factors remain unclear. Therefore, we examined the associations between menopausal characteristics and CHD risk; the shape of the association between age at menopause and CHD risk; and the extent to which these ...
Prospective analysis of circulating metabolites and breast cancer in EPIC
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-24)
<i>Background</i> - Metabolomics is a promising molecular tool to identify novel etiologic pathways leading to cancer. Using a targeted approach, we prospectively investigated the associations between metabolite concentrations in plasma and breast cancer risk.<p>
<p><i>Methods</i> - A nested case-control study was established within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer cohort, which ...
Circulating Metabolites Associated with Alcohol Intake in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition Cohort
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-22)
Identifying the metabolites associated with alcohol consumption may provide insights into the metabolic pathways through which alcohol may affect human health. We studied associations of alcohol consumption with circulating concentrations of 123 metabolites among 2974 healthy participants from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study. Alcohol consumption at ...
Menstrual factors, reproductive history, hormone use, and urothelial carcinoma risk: A prospective study in the EPIC cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-28)
<p>Background: Urothelial carcinoma is the predominant (95%) bladder cancer subtype in industrialized nations. Animal and epidemiologic human studies suggest that hormonal factors may influence urothelial carcinoma risk.
<p>Methods: We used an analytic cohort of 333,919 women from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition Cohort. Associations between hormonal factors and ...
