Variety in vegetable and fruit consumption and risk of bladder cancer in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition

TL;DR: There was no evidence of a statistically significant association between bladder cancer risk and any of the DDSs when these scores were considered as continuous covariates, and this finding provides further evidence for the absence of any strong association between fruit and vegetable consumption as measured by a food frequency questionnaire and bladder cancerrisk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Menopausal hormone therapy and risk of colorectal cancer in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition

TL;DR: The results show no significant association of estrogen‐only or estrogen plus progestin therapy with colorectal cancer risk, and these associations did not vary by recency, duration, route of administration, regimen or specific constituent of HT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediagnostic Serum Vitamin D Levels and the Risk of Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis in European Populations: A Nested Case-Control Study

TL;DR: Vitamin D status was not associated with the development of Crohn's disease or UC, and this does not suggest a major role for vitamin D deficiency in the etiology of IBD, although larger studies are needed to confirm these findings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Innate left handedness and risk of breast cancer: case-cohort study

TL;DR: This paper assessed the association between handedness and incidence of breast cancer in a population-based prospective cohort of healthy, middle-aged women followed up for 16 years in Utrecht, the Netherlands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of prognostic models to predict the occurrence of colorectal cancer in asymptomatic individuals : a systematic literature review and external validation in the EPIC and UK Biobank prospective cohort studies

TL;DR: Several of these non-invasive models exhibited good calibration and discrimination within both external validation populations and are therefore potentially suitable candidates for the facilitation of risk stratification in population-based colorectal screening programmes.
