Giuseppe Grosso,Francesca Bella,Justyna Godos,Salvatore Sciacca,Daniele Del Rio,Daniele Del Rio,Sumantra Ray,Fabio Galvano,Fabio Galvano,Edward Giovannucci +9 more
TL;DR: The most convincing evidence supported an association between healthy dietary patterns and decreased risk of colon and breast cancer, especially in postmenopausal, hormone receptor‐negative women, and an associations between unhealthy dietary patternsand increased risk of Colon cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy metals concentrations in fish and shellfish from eastern Mediterranean Sea: consumption advisories.
Chiara Copat,Giovani Arena,Maria Fiore,Caterina Ledda,Roberto Fallico,Salvatore Sciacca,Margherita Ferrante +6 more
TL;DR: Arsenic target hazard quotient (THQ) values, suggest that human should minimizing meals/week of analyzed species to avoid deleterious effect during lifetime, and with As cancer risk assessment, for most of the fish, the risk for cancer is greater than the acceptable lifetime risk of 10(-5).
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy Metals Concentrations in Fish from Sicily (Mediterranean Sea) and Evaluation of Possible Health Risks to Consumers
Chiara Copat,Francesca Bella,Marine Castaing,Roberto Fallico,Salvatore Sciacca,Margherita Ferrante +5 more
TL;DR: Although some metals concentrations exceed the limits set by the European regulation, the estimated weekly intake was below the Provisional Tolerable Weekly Intake established by theEuropean Food and Safety Authority, and the Target Hazard Quotient values indicate that there is no carcinogenic risk for humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comprehensive meta-analysis on dietary flavonoid and lignan intake and cancer risk: Level of evidence and limitations.
Giuseppe Grosso,Justyna Godos,Rosa M. Lamuela-Raventós,Rosa M. Lamuela-Raventós,Sumantra Ray,Sumantra Ray,Agnieszka Micek,Andrzej Pajak,Salvatore Sciacca,Nicolantonio D'Orazio,Daniele Del Rio,Daniele Del Rio,Fabio Galvano +12 more
TL;DR: Overall results may be promising but are inconclusive, and further prospective cohorts assessing dietary polyphenol exposure and studies using other methods to evaluate exposure are needed to confirm and determine consumption levels required to achieve health benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
