Overview

Systematic review uncovers relationships between dietary factors and colorectal cancer risk in Asian populations, suggesting dietary patterns matter.

Key Points

  • Calcium intake showed a slight reduction in CRC risk, indicated by a relative risk of 0.93.
  • High total meat consumption is associated with increased colorectal cancer risk, presenting a relative risk of 1.18.
  • This analysis highlights the need for further studies to clarify associations between dietary patterns and CRC risk.
