Experimental studies have revealed that phytoestrogens may modulate the risk of certain sites cancer due to their structural similarity 17β-estradiol. The present study investigates whether intake these compounds influence prostate in human populations. During a median follow up 11.5 years, 2,598 cases (including 287 advanced cases) been identified among 27,004 men intervention arm Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial. Dietary (excluding lignans) was assessed with...
Objective: A reduced risk of some cancers and cardiovascular disease associated with phytoestrogen intake may be mediated through its effect on serum C-reactive protein (CRP; an inflammation biomarker). Therefore, this study examined the associations between urinary phytoestrogens CRP.Methods: Urinary CRP data obtained from 6009 participants aged ≥ 40 years in continuous National Health Nutrition Examination Survey during 1999–2010 were analyzed.Results: After adjustment for confounders,...
Abstract Experimental studies suggest that abnormal levels of Ca, Mg and phosphorus are implicated in pancreatic carcinogenesis. We investigated the associations between intakes these minerals risk cancer a case-control study conducted 1994–1998. Cases ( n 150) were recruited from all hospitals metropolitan area Twin Cities Mayo Clinic, Minnesota. Controls 459) randomly selected general population frequency matched to cases by age, sex race. All dietary variables adjusted for energy intake...
Abstract Prostate cancer is the most common non-cutaneous and second leading cause of death among men in U.S. Although ecologic migrant studies suggest that diet plays a role etiology prostate cancer, few specific nutrients alter its occurrence have been identified case-control cohort studies. Phytoestrogens are family bioactive compounds abundant soy products some other food groups (e.g. legumes chick peas). Experimental revealed phytoestrogen intake may modulate risk due to their...
Abstract Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. The etiology prostate largely remains unclear, with almost all established risk factors (e.g. age, race, family history) being not modifiable. Ecological, migrant, and temporal trend studies suggest that diet plays role in occurrence cancer, but few nutrients alter its have been identified from case-control cohort studies. Vitamin K has two forms naturally occur foods, i.e., phylloquinone (vitamin K1) menaquinone K2)....
