We aimed to systematically evaluate the association between dietary intake/blood levels of antioxidant vitamins (vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, and alpha-carotene) and gastric cancer risk. Systematic literature searches were conducted until April 2013 in Pubmed and Embase to identify relevant studies. Either a fixed- or a random-effects model was adopted to estimate overall odds ratios (ORs). Dose-response, meta-regression, subgroup, and publication bias analyses were applied. Forty articles were finally included in the present study. Higher dietary intake of vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, and alpha-carotene was inversely associated with gastric cancer risk (for vitamin C, pooled OR = 0.58, 95% CI 0.51-0.65; for vitamin E, pooled OR = 0.65, 95% CI 0.57-0.74; for beta-carotene, pooled OR = 0.59, 95% CI 0.49-0.70; for alpha-carotene, pooled OR = 0.69, 95% CI 0.52-0.93). Subgroup analyses suggested the effects of these antioxidant vitamins were different in gastric cancer subtypes. As indicated by dose-response analysis, a 100 mg/day increment of vitamin C intake conferred an OR of 0.78 (95% CI 0.67-0.90); a 15 mg/day increment of vitamin E intake conferred an OR of 0.79 (95% CI 0.66-0.94); and a 5 mg/day increment in beta-carotene intake conferred an OR of 0.80 (95% CI 0.60-1.04). No significant association was observed between blood vitamin C, alpha-tocopherol, gamma- tocopherol, beta-carotene and alpha-carotene levels and gastric cancer risk. In conclusion, dietary intake of vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene and alpha-carotene was inversely associated with gastric cancer risk while no such association was observed for blood levels of these antioxidant vitamins, thus the results should be interpreted cautiously.
