Hormone Replacement Therapy and Survival After Colorectal Cancer Diagnosis

Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term intake of dietary fiber and decreased risk of cholecystectomy in women.

Journal Article

Dose response to vitamin D supplementation in African Americans: results of a 4-arm, randomized, placebo-controlled trial

TL;DR: Within African Americans, an estimated 1640 IU vitamin D₃/d was required to achieve concentrations of plasma 25(OH)D recommended by the Institute of Medicine, whereas 4000 IU/dwas needed to reach concentrations predicted to reduce cancer and cardiovascular disease risk in prospective observational studies.
