Adherence to dietary recommendations among long-term breast cancer survivors and cancer outcome associations
Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention Jan 06, 2020
Wang F, Cai H, Gu K, et al. - Given that adherence to dietary recommendations have been shown to be correlated with decreased mortality in healthy populations, researchers desired to know about the possible advantages of adherence to dietary recommendations among breast cancer survivors. Using food frequency questionnaires at the 5-year postdiagnosis survey in 3,450 5-year breast cancer survivors from the Shanghai Breast Cancer Survival Study, dietary information has been gathered. Adherence scores to Chinese Food Pagoda (CHFP)-2007, CHFP-2016, modified Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) and Healthy Eating Index 2015 have been built. Findings suggested an association of higher adherence to CHFP and DASH dietary guidelines postcancer diagnosis with a lessened risk of both overall death, and breast cancer specific recurrence or death among long-term breast cancer survivors. The importance of overall dietary quality among long-term breast cancer survivors was highlighted in this analysis.
