Alcohol intake and colorectal cancer risk in the Multiethnic Cohort Study

American Journal of Epidemiology Sep 20, 2018

Park SY, et al. - Researchers examined data from 190,698 African Americans, Native Hawaiians, Japanese Americans, Latinos, and Caucasians, with 4,923 incident cases during a 16.7-year follow-up period, in this multiethnic cohort study to investigate the association of alcohol intake with colorectal cancer risk by race/ethnicity, sex, lifestyle-related factors, alcoholic beverage type, and anatomical subsite. Findings showed that beer and wine, but not liquor, consumption was positively associated with the risk of colorectal cancer. The researchers also found that the positive correlation between alcohol and colorectal cancer differs by race/ethnicity, lifestyle factors, alcoholic beverage type, and anatomical subsite of tumors.
