Yamagiwa Y, et al. – Researchers examined the association of fruit and vegetable intake with pancreatic cancer risk (as part of the Japan Public Health Center-based Prospective Study) by analyzing data obtained from 90,185 study participants who responded to a medical and lifestyle questionnaire from 1995 to 1998 in this population-based cohort study. Findings revealed that pancreatic cancer risk was inversely related to total fruit intake and positively correlated with the total vegetable intake. The investigators noted that the inverse association with pancreatic cancer risk was more apparent in never-smokers for total fruit intake whereas the positive correlation was statistically significant in ever- smokers and statistically non-significant in never-smokers for total vegetable intake.
