Low-Fat Dietary Pattern and Risk of Invasive Breast Cancer: The Women's Health Initiative Randomized Controlled Dietary Modification Trial

Ross L. Prentice, +48 more
- 08 Feb 2006 - 
TL;DR: Among postmenopausal women, a low-fat dietary pattern did not result in a statistically significant reduction in invasive breast cancer risk over an 8.1-year average follow-up period, and the nonsignificant trends observed indicate that longer, planned, nonintervention follow- up may yield a more definitive comparison.
Journal ArticleDOI

Types of dietary fat and the incidence of cancer at five sites.

TL;DR: The findings supported hypotheses based on the results of animal experiments showing that different kinds of fatty acids have different tumor-promoting capabilities, particularly between total fat and colon cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility of a randomized trial of a low-fat diet for the prevention of breast cancer: dietary compliance in the Women's Health Trial Vanguard Study.

TL;DR: Analysis of analyses indicate that the intervention women made substantial dietary changes and have successfully maintained these changes over a 2-year period, demonstrating the feasibility of a randomized trial with an intensive low-fat dietary intervention.
