Alcohol, diet and body fatness as risk factors for stomach cancer and its subtypes: a pooled analysis of prospective studies from the NCI Cohort Consortium

全世界每年有100万人患胃癌;大多数人在诊断后不久死亡。没有筛查测试来识别患有早期疾病的人。我们将利用国际数据库研究饮酒、含糖软饮料、咖啡和茶、食用肉类、鱼类、水果、蔬菜、谷物和纤维、使用阿司匹林和抗炎药物以及肥胖是否与胃癌有关。研究结果可能有助于预防澳大利亚多达三分之二的胃癌。

A million people develop stomach cancer annually worldwide; the majority die soon after diagnosis. There is no screening test to identify people with early disease. We will examine whether drinking alcohol, sugary soft drinks, coffee and tea, consuming meat, fish, fruit, vegetable, cereal and fibre, using aspirin and anti-inflammatory medication, and obesity is related to stomach cancer using an international database. Findings may help prevent up to two-thirds of stomach cancers in Australia.
