@article{DruesnePecollo2010BetacaroteneSA, title={Beta‐carotene supplementation and cancer risk: a systematic review and metaanalysis of randomized controlled trials}, author={Nathalie Druesne-Pecollo and Paule Latino-Martel and Teresa Norat and Emilie Barrandon and Sandrine Bertrais and Pilar Galan and Serge Hercberg}, journal={International Journal of Cancer}, year={2010}, volume={127} }
The effect of beta‐carotene supplementation on cancer incidence has been investigated in several randomized controlled trials. The objective was to review the effect of beta‐carotene supplementation on cancer incidence in randomized trials by cancer site, beta‐carotene supplementation characteristics and study population. Relevant trials were retrieved by searching PubMed (up to April 2009). Authors involved in selected studies were contacted for additional information. Thirteen publications…
