      <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 ...

      Background: Mycotoxins have been suggested to contribute to a spectrum of adverse health effects in humans, including at low concentrations. The recognition of these food contaminants being carcinogenic, as co-occurring rather than as singularly present, has emerged from recent research. The aim of this study was to assess the potential associations of single and multiple mycotoxin exposures with ...

      Background:<br> Obesity is positively associated with colorectal cancer. Recently, body size subtypes categorised by the prevalence of hyperinsulinaemia have been defined, and metabolically healthy overweight/obese individuals (without hyperinsulinaemia) have been suggested to be at lower risk of cardiovascular disease than their metabolically unhealthy (hyperinsulinaemic) overweight/obese counterparts. ...

      <p><i>Background - </i>Helping consumers make healthier food choices is a key issue for the prevention of cancer and other diseases. In many countries, political authorities are considering the implementation of a simplified labelling system to reflect the nutritional quality of food products. The Nutri-Score, a five-colour nutrition label, is derived from the Nutrient Profiling System of the British ...
    • Plasma alkylresorcinols, biomarkers of whole-grain wheat and rye intake, and incidence of colorectal cancer

Bas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013-12-07)
      Background<p> <p>Few studies have investigated the association between whole-grain intake and colorectal cancer. Because whole-grain intake estimation might be prone to measurement errors, more objective measures (eg, biomarkers) could assist in investigating such associations.<p> <p>Methods <p>The association between alkylresorcinols, biomarkers of whole-grain rye and wheat intake, and colorectal ...
    • Polyphenol Intake and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Risk in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) Study 

      Londono, Catalina; Cayssials, Valerie; de Villasante, Izar; Crous-Bou, Marta; Scalbert, Augustin; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Agudo, Antonio; Tjønneland, Anne; Olsen, Anja; Overvad, Kim; Katzke, Verena; Schulze, Matthias; Palli, Domenico; Krogh, Vittorio; De Magistris, Maria Santucci; Tumino, Rosario; Ricceri, Fulvio; Gram, Inger Torhild; Rylander, Charlotta; Skeie, Guri; Sanchez, Maria-Jose; Amiano, Pilar; Huerta, José María; Barricarte, Aurelio; Sartor, Hanna; Sonestedt, Emily; Esberg, Anders; Idahl, Annika; Mahamat-Saleh, Yahya; Laouali, Nasser; Kvaskoff, Marina; Turzanski-Fortner, Renée; Zamora-Ros, Raul (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-04)
      Despite some epidemiological evidence on the protective effects of polyphenol intake on epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) risk from case-control studies, the evidence is scarce from prospective studies and non-existent for several polyphenol classes. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the associations between the intake of total, classes and subclasses of polyphenols and EOC risk in a large ...

      Bile acids (BAs) play different roles in cancer development. Some are carcinogenic and BA signaling is also involved in various metabolic, inflammatory and immune-related processes. The liver is the primary site of BA synthesis. Liver dysfunction and microbiome compositional changes, such as during hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development, may modulate BA metabolism increasing concentration of ...

      <p><i>Background</i>: Few published breast cancer (BC) risk prediction models consider the heterogeneity of predictor variables between estrogen-receptor positive (ER+) and negative (ER-) tumors. Using data from two large cohorts, we examined whether modeling this heterogeneity could improve prediction.</p> <p><i>Methods</i>: We built two models, for ER+ (Model<sub>ER+</sub>) and ER- tumors ...

      <p>Differences in health status by socioeconomic position (SEP) tend to be more evident at older ages, suggesting the involvement of a biological mechanism responsive to the accumulation of deleterious exposures across the lifespan. DNA methylation (DNAm) has been proposed as a biomarker of biological aging that conserves memory of endogenous and exogenous stress during life. <p>We examined the ...
    • Soft Drink and Juice Consumption and Renal Cell Carcinoma Incidence and Mortality in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition 

      Heath, Alicia K; Clasen, Johanna L; Jayanth, Nick P; Jenab, Mazda; Tjønneland, Anne; Petersen, Kristina E N; Overvad, Kim; Srour, Bernard; Katzke, Verena; Bergmann, Manuela M; Schulze, Matthias B; Masala, Giovanna; Krogh, Vittorio; Tumino, Rosario; Catalano, A; Pasanisi, Fabrizio; Brustad, Magritt; Olsen, Karina Standahl; Skeie, Guri; Lujan-Barroso, Leila; RodrÍguez-Barranco, Miguel; Amiano, Pilar; Santiuste, Carmen; Gurrea, Aurelio Barricarte; Axelson, Håkon; Ramne, Stina; Ljungberg, Börje; Watts, Eleanor L.; Huybrechts, Inge; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Riboli, Elio; Muller, David C (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-01)
      Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for more than 80% of kidney cancers in adults, and obesity is a known risk factor. Regular consumption of sweetened beverages has been linked to obesity and several chronic diseases, including some types of cancer. It is uncertain whether soft drink and juice consumption is associated with risk of RCC. We investigated the associations of soft drink and ...
    • Soluble Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-products (sRAGE) and colorectal cancer risk: a 1 case-control study nested within a European prospective cohort 

      Aglago, Elom K.; Rinaldi, Sabina; Freisling, Heinz; Jiao, Li; Hughes, David J.; Fedirko, Veronika; Schalkwijk, Casper C; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Dahm, Christina C.; Overvad, Kim; Eriksen, Anne Kirstine; Kyrø, Cecilie; Boutron-Ruault, Marie-Christine; Rothwell, Joseph A.; Severi, Gianluca; Katzke, Verena; Kuhn, Tilman; Schulze, Matthias B.; Krasimira, Aleksandrova; Masala, Giovanna; Krogh, Vittorio; Panico, Salavatore; Tumino, Rosario; Naccarati, Alessio; Bueno-De-Mesquita, Bas; van Gils, Carla H.; Sandanger, Torkjel M; Gram, Inger Torhild; Skeie, Guri; Quiros, J.

      <p>Background: Overexpression of the receptor for advanced glycation end-product (RAGE) has been associated with chronic inflammation, which in turn has been associated with increased colorectal cancer risk. Soluble RAGE (sRAGE) competes with RAGE to bind its ligands, thus potentially preventing RAGE-induced inflammation. <p>Methods: To investigate whether sRAGE and related genetic variants are ...
    • Stochastic Epigenetic Mutations Are Associated with Risk of Breast Cancer, Lung Cancer, and Mature B-cell Neoplasms 

      Gagliardi, Amedeo; Dugué, Pierre-Antoine; Nøst, Therese Haugdahl; Southey, Melissa C.; Buchanan, Daniel D.; Schmidt, Daniel F; Makalic, Enes; Hodge, Allison M; English, Dallas R.; Wong Doo, Nicole; Hopper, John L.; Severi, Gianluca; Baglietto, Laura; Naccarati, Alessio; Krogh, Vittorio; Palli, Domenico; Panico, Salvatore; Sacerdote, Carlotta; Tumino, Rosario; Lund, Eiliv; Giles, Graham; Pardini, Barbara; Sandanger, Torkjel M; Milne, Roger L.; Paolo, Vineis; Polidoro, Silvia; Fiorito, Giovanni (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-11)
      <p>Background: Age-related epigenetic dysregulations are associated with several diseases, including cancer. The number of stochastic epigenetic mutations (SEM) has been suggested as a biomarker of life-course accumulation of exposure-related DNA damage; however, the predictive role of SEMs in cancer has seldom been investigated. <p>Methods: A SEM, at a given CpG site, was defined as an extreme ...

      Background - Dietary pattern analysis has gained particular interest, because it reflects the complexity of dietary intake. The aim of this study was to explore the associations between a posteriori dietary patterns, derived using a data-driven approach, and the risk of differentiated thyroid cancer (TC) in Europe.<p> <p>Methods - This investigation included 450,064 adults from the European ...

      Higher circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels (25(OH)D) have been found to be associated with lower risk for colorectal cancer (CRC) in prospective studies. Whether this association is modified by genetic variation in genes related to vitamin D metabolism and action has not been well studied in humans. We investigated 1307 functional and tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; individually, ...
