[ 1 ] - Dietary Iron Source and Lung Cancer Risk: A Case-Control Study in Uruguayan Men
Introduction: Iron metabolism was found to be implicated in several cancers. Few epidemiologic studies; focusing on iron intake and lung cancer (LC), reported positive associations between heme iron and red meat. Based on estimates of iron contents in representative foods, we conducted the present study with the aim of analyzing dietary iron and its role on the incidence of LC in Uruguayan men,...

[ 3 ] - Dietary Acid Load and Bladder Cancer Risk: An Epidemiologic Case-Control Study
Introduction: Dietary acid load contributes to metabolic acidosis, closely linked to cancer development through inflammation and cell transformation. There is very limited epidemiologic evidence; linking diet-dependent acid load and cancer risk. Since there are few published studies specifically on urinary pH and bladder cancer (BC) risk, we sought to explore this association in the present stud...
