研究对象为188名男性和88名女性胃癌患者，以及1957年至1965年间在罗斯威尔公园纪念研究所（Roswell Park Memorial Institute）就诊的800名男性和1400名女性非肿瘤性非消化道疾病患者。病例和对照组的性别和年龄特异性比较显示，男性摄入大量特定食物和饮料（包括酒精）的阳性结果很少，女性几乎没有。与对照组相比，胃癌患者吃卷心菜和土豆的比例更高，尽管后者的结果并不显著。不常进食也是癌症患者的特征;这一结果可能与Segi和Wynder关于“不规则”进食的结果相似。目前发现使用泻药的风险较高，这与Boyd和Doll早些时候报告的结果相似。这些结果中可能存在的许多误差来源可能与所使用的访谈方法有关。尽管如此，一些考虑方面的采访方法表明，需要在未来进行类似的研究，调查发现的关系。
A study was made of 188 men and 88 women with gastric cancer plus controls of 800 men and 1400 women with non‐neoplastic, nondigestive disease seen at Roswell Park Memorial Institute between 1957 and 1965. Sex and age‐specific comparisons of cases and controls showed few positive results for men and almost none for women regarding ingestion of a large number of specific foods and beverages, including alcohol. Higher proportions of men with gastric cancer ate cabbage and potatoes than controls though the latter result was not significant. Eating infrequently also more often characterized patients with cancer; this result may parallel those of Segi and Wynder regarding “irregular” eating. The current finding of a higher risk for use of purgatives was similar to the one reported earlier by Boyd and Doll. Many sources of possible error in these results may inhere in the interview method used. Nevertheless, a number of considerations with regard to the interview approach suggest the need for similar research in the future to investigate the relationships found.
