将夏威夷和新西兰的波利尼西亚人口的癌症模式与欧洲同行和萨摩亚的波利尼西亚人口进行了比较。一般来说，波利尼西亚人的癌症模式是相似的;胃癌、乳腺癌、肺癌、前列腺癌和肝癌的发病率较高，结肠癌和直肠癌的发病率较低。吸烟可以解释大多数，如果不是全部的话，波利尼西亚人的肺癌过量。然而，波利尼西亚人和欧洲人之间没有明显的饮食差异，这可以解释前者患胃癌和欧洲人患结肠癌和直肠癌的高风险。
Cancer patterns in the Polynesian population of Hawaii and New Zealand were compared with their European counterparts and with the Polynesian population of Samoa. In general, the cancer patterns of the Polynesians are similar; rates are higher for stomach, breast, lung, prostate, and liver cancers and lower for colon and rectal cancers. Cigarette smoking may explain most, if not all, of the lung cancer excess in Polynesians. However, no clear dietary differences between Polynesians and Europeans are evident that could explain the high risk of the former population to stomach cancer and of the Europeans to colon and rectal cancers.
