DIETARY CONSTITUENT CANCER MODULATION ANALYSIS SYSTEM

膳食成分-肿瘤调节分析系统(DC-CMAS) 提供基于微型计算机的、用户友好的饮食功能 评估。DC-CMA将包含食品消费数据、构成数据 (营养素、污染物、食品添加剂和其他成分)；以及 成分的生物学特性(建议摄入量、 代谢活动、毒理学摘要等)。第一阶段的目标是 (1)使用TAS开发的新技术将整个1897-88年 美国农业部全国食品消费调查，包括每个人的日常 将摄入量记录存储到微型计算机(2)更新和扩展营养数据集， 尤其是与癌症调节参数、食品加工有关的那些 补充剂技术和天然食物成分， (3)更新软件以适应新数据。这是至关重要的第一点 创建完全集成的癌症调节所需的步骤 分析系统。DC-CMAS将是一个有价值的量化 人口中摄入量的分布和放置这些分析 从生物学的角度来看。DC-CMAS将为科学家、食品设计师提供 监管官员提供了一种更好的方法来评估 种群(亚种群)营养成分的变化 癌症事件概率。DC-CMA将进行大型全国性调查，如 美国农业部全国食品消费调查可供研究人员使用 不需要计算机预算和专门的计算机编程 专业知识。

The Dietary Constituent-Cancer Modulation Analysis System (DC-CMAS) provides microcomputer-based, user friendly capabilities for dietary assessment. DC-CMAS will contain food consumption data, constituent data (nutrients, contaminants, food additives and other constituents), and biological characteristics of constituents (Recommended intake levels, metabolic activities, toxicology summaries, etc.). Phase I objectives are to (1) use new techniques developed by TAS to transfer the entire 1897-88 USDA Nationwide Food Consumption survey including each individual's daily intake records to a microcomputer (2) update and expand nutrient data sets, especially those relevant to cancer-modulation parameters, food processing and supplementation technologies and naturally-occurring food constituents, (3) update software to accommodate new data. These are the essential first steps required toward creating a fully integrated cancer modulation analysis system. DC-CMAS will be a valuable new tool for quantifying the distribution of intake within a population and for placing those analyses in biological perspective. DC-CMAS will provide scientists, food designers and regulatory officials a better method for assessing the impact of nutrient and constituent changes on the population's (subpopulations') cancer event probability. DC-CMAS will make large national surveys such as the USDA Nationwide Food Consumption Survey available to researchers without requiring computer budgets and specialized computer programming expertise.
