We conducted a prospective analysis of adherence to the Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015, alternative HEI-2010 (AHEI-2010), alternate Mediterranean diet (aMED), and two Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH, Fung and Mellen) indices and PDAC within the National Institutes of Health (NIH)-AARP Diet and Health Study (United [...]

A Meta-Analysis of Calcium Intake and Risk of Glioma

Guo, Xu ; Piao, Haozhe

Background: A meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the correlation between calcium intake and the risk of brain tumors (especially glioma). Methods: The PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases were searched for relevant papers on the association between calcium intake and glioma as of August 22, 2021. The odds ratio (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated using a random-effects model. Egger?s test was conducted to assess publication bias. Results: The meta-analysis [...]

Kotsopoulos, Joanne ; Lubinski, Jan ; Gronwald, Jacek ; Menkiszak, Janusz ; McCuaig, Jeanna ; Metcalfe, Kelly ; Foulkes, William D. ; Neuhausen, Susan L. ; Sun, Sophie ; Karlan, Beth Y. ; Eisen, Andrea ; Tung, Nadine ; Olopade, Olufunmilayo I. ; Couch, Fergus J. ; Huzarski, Tomasz ; Senter, Leigha ; Bordeleau, Louise ; Singer, Christian F. ; Eng, Charis ; Fruscio, Robert ; Pal, Tuya ; Sun, Ping ; Narod, Steven A.

Background: The lack of consensus on whether bilateral oophorectomy impacts risk of developing breast cancer among BRCA1 mutation carriers might be attributed to various biases, specifically, cancer-induced testing bias due to inclusion of prevalent cases. We conducted two complementary matched case-control analyses to evaluate the association of oophorectomy and BRCA1-breast cancer. Methods: A research questionnaire was administered every two years to collect information on exposures and [...]
