Red and processed meat, poultry, fish and egg intakes and cause-specific and all-cause mortality among men with non-metastatic prostate cancer in a US Cohort
Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention Mar 12, 2020
Wang Y, Jacobs EJ, Shah RA, et al. - Researchers used the Cancer Prevention Study-II Nutrition Cohort to examine the link of meat, fish and egg consumption and mortality among prostate cancer survivors. The participants, ie, men who received a diagnosis of non-metastatic prostate cancer between baseline in 1992/1993 and 2015 were observed for mortality until 2016. In pre- and post-diagnosis analyses, the occurrence of 4,682 and 2,768 deaths, respectively, was reported during follow-up. Experts identified a positive link of both pre- and post-diagnosis intake of total red and processed meat with all-cause mortality, and they found an inverse link of both pre- and post-diagnosis poultry intake with all-cause mortality. There were no links evident for prostate cancer-specific mortality, except that a lower risk was observed in relation to higher post-diagnosis unprocessed red meat consumption. Overall, a higher risk of all-cause mortality was evident in relation to higher red and processed meat, and lower poultry intakes either prior to or following prostate cancer diagnosis.
