Stomach cancer is the most prevalent malignant neoplasm in Korea. As of 1991-1992 in Seoul, the cumulative rates reported for the age span 0-74 were 7.6% in males and 3.1% in females. A recent case-control study reported that several food items and cooking methods are associated with increased or
OBJECTIVE
Stomach cancer is the second common cause of death in Lithuania and most countries of the world. Nevertheless, there were no reports of epidemiological studies on stomach cancer in Lithuania. Therefore, a hospital-based case-control study has been carried out in order to assess the
A multicentric, hospital-based, case-control study was conducted in high- and low-risk areas for stomach cancer in the Federal Republic of Germany, by which means a low intake of dietary vitamin C (relative risk [RR] = 2.32, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.22-4.43 for lowest against highest
BACKGROUND
Stomach cancer is the most common cancer among Koreans. There is wide agreement that dietary factors are important in gastric carcinogenesis, but the role of many Korean food items remains unknown.
METHODS
A case-control investigation involving 213 incident cases of histologically
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and high intake of various traditional salt-preserved foods are regarded as risk factors for human gastric cancer. We previously reported that Chinese cabbage contains indole compounds, such as indole-3-acetonitrile, a mutagen precursor.
A simultaneous case-control study on stomach cancer and colo-rectal cancer involving 93 cases with stomach cancer, 93 cases with colo-rectal cancer and 186 controls was conducted using a common questionnaire at the Aichi Cancer Center Hospital in 1981-83. A fondness for salty tastes, especially
We assessed the possible association of gastrointestinal cancers with cruciferous vegetables and mushrooms in a multicenter, hospital-based case-control study in an agricultural area of Japan. One hundred forty-nine cases and 287 controls for stomach cancer and 115 cases and 230 controls for
One year (continuous 2 days for 12 months) food surveys were held at 5 areas, with different gastric cancer risks, in Akita and Iwate Prefectures. Each food items was counted down the frequency of intake for one year and Food Index (FI, intake frequency of certain food item or food group/number of
A case-control study focusing on the role of single food items was undertaken in the Heilongjiang area, 241 patients with histologically verified stomach cancer and an equal number of controls (with non-neoplastic diseases) matched by age, sex and area of residence being interviewed during a 2-year
This paper first gives an overview of the epidemiological data concerning the cancer-preventive effect of brassica vegetables, including cabbages, kale, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower. A protective effect of brassicas against cancer may be plausible due to their relatively high content
This paper gives an overview of the epidemiological data concerning the cancer-preventive effect of brassica vegetables, including cabbage, kale, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower. The protective effect of brassicas against cancer may be due to their relatively high content of
As there is a strong correlation between diet and cancer, the dietary constituents that inhibit mutagenesis and/or carcinogenesis are of paramount importance for the prevention of human cancer. In the present study, cancer chemopreventive potentials of different doses of mustard (Brassica
Since eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is thought to be a preventive measure against stomach cancer, several studies have examined factors associated with the infection. This paper reports the association of the infection with lifestyle factors observed in a hospital-based case-control
