      Background: The Mediterranean diet (MD) has been proposed as a healthy diet with a potential to lower the incidence of several types of cancer, but there is no data regarding thyroid cancer (TC). We investigated the association between MD adherence, and its components, and the differentiated TC risk within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort.<p> <p>Methods: ...

      <i>Background</i> - Even though in situ breast cancer (BCIS) accounts for a large proportion of the breast cancers diagnosed, few studies have investigated potential risk factors for BCIS. Their results suggest that some established risk factors for invasive breast cancer have a similar impact on BCIS risk, but large population-based studies on lifestyle factors and BCIS risk are lacking. Thus, ...
    • Body Size at Different Ages and Risk of 6 Cancers: A Mendelian Randomization and Prospective Cohort Study 

      Mariosa, Daniela; Smith-Byrne, Karl; Richardson, Tom G.; Ferrari, Pietro; Gunter, Marc J.; Papadimitriou, Nikos; Murphy, Neil; Christakoudi, Sofia; Tsilidis, Konstantinos K.; Riboli, Elio; Muller, David; Purdue, Mark P.; Chanock, Stephen J.; Hung, Rayjean J.; Amos, Christopher I.; O'Mara, Tracy A.; Amiano, Pilar; Pasanisi, Fabrizio; Rodriguez-Barranco, Miguel; Krogh, Vittorio; Tjønneland, Anne; Halkjær, Jytte; Perez-Cornago, Aurora; Chirlaque, María-Dolores; Skeie, Guri; Rylander, Charlotta; Borch, Kristin Benjaminsen; Aune, Dagfinn; Heath, Alicia K.; Ward, Heather A.; Schulze, Matthias; Bonet, Catalina; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Davey Smith, George; Brennan, Paul; Johansson, Mattias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-19)
      It is unclear if body weight in early life affects cancer risk independently of adult body weight. To investigate this question for 6 obesity-related cancers, we performed univariable and multivariable analyses using 1) Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis and 2) longitudinal analyses in prospective cohorts. Both the MR and longitudinal analyses indicated that larger early life body size was ...

      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 ...

      Selenium (Se) may help prevent breast cancer (BC) development. Owing to limited observational evidence, we investigated whether prediagnostic Se status and/or variants in the selenoprotein genes are associated with BC risk in a large European cohort. Se status was assessed by plasma measures of Se and its major circulating proteins, selenoprotein P (SELENOP) and glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3), in ...

      Background & Aims - Evidence regarding the association of dietary exposures with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk is not consistent with a few exceptions. Therefore, we conducted a diet-wide association study (DWAS) in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) to evaluate the associations between several dietary exposures with CRC risk.<p> <p>Methods - The association ...

      BACKGROUND: CA125 is the best available yet insufficiently sensitive biomarker for early detection of ovarian cancer. There is a need to identify novel biomarkers, which individually or in combination with CA125 can achieve adequate sensitivity and specificity for the detection of earlier-stage ovarian cancer.<p> <p>METHODS: In the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition ...
