Long-term whole-grain rye and wheat consumption and their associations with selected biomarkers of inflammation, endothelial function, and cardiovascular disease
Nor Adila Mhd Omar,Huaxing Wu,Anders Larsson,Alicja Wolk,Alicja Wolk,Rikard Landberg,Rikard Landberg +6 more
TL;DR: The results give limited support to the hypothesis that a high WG wheat and rye intake is associated with lower concentrations of common biomarkers of inflammation and CVD that have previously been reported inversely associated with WG intake or an overall healthy lifestyle.

TL;DR: The results suggest that higher BMI more greatly raises colorectal cancer risk among men, whereas higher WHR more greatly rises CRC risk among women.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study suggests that the association with colorectal cancer in 10q24.2/COX15 observed in genome-wide association study is strongest in nondrinkers, and identifies rs1318920 as the putative causal regulatory variant for the region.
