Circulating copper and zinc levels and risk of hepatobiliary cancers in Europeans
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-02-02)
Background:<br>Copper and zinc are essential micronutrients and cofactors of many enzymatic reactions that may be involved in liver-cancer development. We aimed to assess pre-diagnostic circulating levels of copper, zinc and their ratio (Cu/Zn) in relation to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic bile duct (IHBD) and gall bladder and biliary tract (GBTC) cancers.<br>Methods:<br>A nested ...
Mediterranean diet and risk of pancreatic cancer in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-02-07)
Background: The Mediterranean diet (MD) has been proposed as a means for cancer prevention, but little evidence has been accrued regarding its potential to prevent pancreatic cancer. We investigated the association between the adherence to the MD and pancreatic cancer risk within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort.
<br>Methods: Over half a million ...
Pre-diagnostic concordance with the WCRF/AICR guidelines and survival in European colorectal cancer patients: A cohort study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-05-07)
Background: Cancer survivors are advised to follow lifestyle recommendations on diet, physical activity, and body
fatness proposed by the World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute of Cancer Research (WCRF/AICR) for
cancer prevention. Previous studies have demonstrated that higher concordance with these recommendations
measured using an index score (the WCRF/AICR score) was associated with ...

Plasma elaidic acid level as biomarker of industrial trans fatty acids and risk of weight change: Report from the EPIC study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-12)
Background
Few epidemiological studies have examined the association between dietary trans fatty
acids and weight gain, and the evidence remains inconsistent. The main objective of the
study was to investigate the prospective association between biomarker of industrial trans
fatty acids and change in weight within the large study European Prospective Investigation
into Cancer and Nutrition ...
Nutrient patterns and their food sources in an international study setting: Report from the EPIC study

Combined impact of healthy lifestyle factors on colorectal cancer: A large European cohort study

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 ...
