Dietary long-chain n-3 fatty acids for the prevention of cancer: a review of potential mechanisms.

Several molecular mechanisms whereby n-3 fatty acids may modify the carcinogenic process have been proposed, and influences on transcription factor activity, gene expression, and signal transduction pathways; alteration of estrogen metabolism; increased or decreased production of free radicals and reactive oxygen species; and mechanisms involving insulin sensitivity and membrane fluidity are proposed.

Diabetes mellitus and risk of colorectal cancer: a meta-analysis.

A meta-analysis of published data on the association between diabetes and the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer found that diabetes was associated with an increased risk of colors, compared with no diabetes, and these results were consistent between case-control and cohort studies and between studies conducted in the United States and in Europe.

with at a Mendelian randomization study.

This MR analysis shows that high BP, especially SBP, is causally associated with poorer processing speed, verbal memory, and executive function during midlife, and emphasize the need for further investigation of the role and mechanisms of BP dysregulation on cognitive health in middle age and perhaps, more broadly, across the lifespan.

Obesity and colon and rectal cancer risk: a meta-analysis of prospective studies.

The association between obesity and colon and rectal cancer risk varies by sex and cancer site, and the difference in RRs between cancer sites was statistically significant.

Red meat consumption and risk of cancers of the proximal colon, distal colon and rectum: The Swedish Mammography Cohort

High consumption of red meat may substantially increase the risk of distal colon cancer, and future investigations on red meat and colorectal cancer risk should consider cancer subsites separately.
