Are Physical Activity Levels Linked to Nutrient Adequacy? Implications for Cancer Risk
This study showed that higher PAL would promote better health and have DRIs which would help promote potential cancer-preventing nutrients. Benefits of higher PAIs may extend beyond the usual benefits…
A two-stage association study identifies methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 2 gene polymorphisms as candidates for breast cancer susceptibility
…a genome-wide study. They restricted their analysis to DNA polymorphisms and selected 22 SNPS. There were certain SNPs that were found to be relevant to breast cancer susceptibility in populations….
Cancer incidence attributable to insufficient fibre consumption in Alberta in 2012
…with colon cancer due to lack of fibre. The study showed that 66-67% of men and 73-78% of women did not have enough fibre in their diets. As such, the…

Health-related and psychosocial factors associated with prostate cancer stage at diagnosis among males participating in Alberta's Tomorrow Project
Researchers investigated the factors associated with the stage at which prostate cancer (PCa) is diagnosed among males in Alberta’s Tomorrow Project. They found that a higher number of lifetime prostate-specific…
Importance of accounting for timing of time-varying exposures in association studies: Hydrochlorothiazide and non-melanoma skin cancer
The researchers used different models to determine how non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) risk varies with hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) exposure and explored how the results may be contingent on modeling strategies. Data…
