TL;DR: Methods for point and interval estimation of relative risk for log-linear exposure-response relations in meta-analyses of published ordinal categorical exposure- response data have been proposed and the use of 2 publicly available user-friendly programs (Stata and SAS) to implement meta-analysis for dose-response data is illustrated.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of total calcium intake in the prevention of hip fracture risk has not been well established, and the authors assess the relation of calciumintaketotheriskofhip fractureonthebasis of meta-analyses of cohort studies and clinical trials.

TL;DR: Among men and women, 25(OH)D status seems to be the dominant predictor of BMD relative to calcium intake, and only women with 25( OH)D concentrations <50 nM seem to benefit from a higher calcium intake.

TL;DR: The conclusion is that in a meta‐analysis of cohort studies, there was no overall association between milk intake and hip fracture risk in women but that more data are needed in men.

TL;DR: There was a suggestive, modest positive association for risk of pancreatic cancer for intakes of SSB, and these associations were consistent across levels of sex, smoking status, and body mass index.
