Ma Y, et al. - While adherence to healthy dietary guidelines has been linked to a reduced risk of several adverse health outcomes (eg, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancer types), researchers conducted this study to analyze the role of dietary patterns in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) among US men and women. For this investigation, they prospectively evaluated the relationships of three key, commonly used a priori dietary patterns—the Alternative Healthy Eating Index-2010 (AHEI-2010), Alternate Mediterranean Diet (AMED), and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH)—with the risk of incident HCC in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study and the Nurses’ Health Study, two large prospective cohort studies. A full 160 incidents of HCC were identified during the follow-up period (up to 32 years). According to results, among US adult, better adherence to the AHEI-2010 might reduce the risk of HCC.
