Effect of vitamin D supplementation on non-skeletal disorders: a systematic review of meta-analyses and randomised trials
Philippe Autier,Patrick Mullie,Alina Macacu,Miruna Dragomir,M. Boniol,Kim Coppens,Cécile Pizot,Mathieu Boniol +7 more
TL;DR: There remains little evidence to suggest that vitamin D supplementation has an effect on most conditions, including chronic inflammation, despite use of increased doses of vitamin D, strengthening the hypothesis that low vitamin D status is a consequence of ill health, rather than its cause.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active and passive smoking and risk of breast cancer: a meta-analysis
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of observational studies on tobacco smoking and breast cancer occurrence was conducted based on systematic searches for studies with retrospective (case–control) and prospective (cohort) designs, and the results were stable across different subgroup analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global burden of pancreas cancer: regional disparities in incidence, mortality and survival
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrition and prostate cancer: review of the evidence
Miruna Dragomir,Patrick Mullie,Maria Bota,Alice Koechlin,Alina Macacu,Cécile Pizot,Peter Boyle +6 more
TL;DR: The evidence on any potential association between diet and prostate cancer is weak, and the reductionist approach considering individual nutritional factors is not suitable, and conducting more observational studies or small randomised trials evaluating the impact ofindividual nutritional factors on prostate cancer will not bring further answers.
