Dietary risk factors for esophageal cancer based on World Health Organization (WHO) regions

Ghosh, Nirjhar Ruth ; Jones, Lori

Esophageal cancer (EC) has become one of the most alarming cancer diseases in the world because of its incidence and mortality rate. As per the Global Cancer Incidence, Mortality and Prevalence (GLOBOCAN) report, it ranked seventh in terms of incidence and sixth in mortality overall in 2020. There is a significant difference in global incidence between regions. For both sexes, Eastern Asia ranks first by region. By countries, Cape Verde in Western Africa has the highest incidence rate for men; [...]

Association between gastric cancer and the family history of gastric cancer: a cross-sectional study using Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study data

Choi, Hyo Geun ; Chun, Wook ; Jung, Kuk Hyun

Objective: The risk of gastric cancer based on a family history of gastric cancer remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between gastric cancer and family history of gastric cancer within a large cohort in Korea. Methods: In total 211 708 participants were recruited in the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study during 2001–2013, and divided into a group with a self-reported personal history of gastric cancer (n = 930) and a 1:40 matched control group [...]

Menée à partir de données de la "UK Biobank" portant sur 442 614 personnes (durée médiane de suivi : 8,8 ans), cette étude analyse l'association entre un score évaluant l'état nutritionnel et l'adiposité et le risque de cancer (23 localisations, 36 961 cas)
