RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Even though in situ breast cancer (BCIS) accounts for a large proportion of the breast cancers diagnosed, few studies have investigated potential risk factors for BCIS. Their results suggest that some established risk factors for invasive breast cancer have a similar impact on BCIS risk, but large population-based studies on lifestyle factors and BCIS risk are lacking. Thus, we investigated the association between lifestyle and BCIS risk within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort. METHODS: Lifestyle was operationalized by a score reflecting the adherence to the World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute for Cancer Research (WCRF/AICR) cancer prevention recommendations. The recommendations utilized in these analyses were the ones pertinent to healthy body weight, physical activity, consumption of plant-based foods, energy-dense foods, red and processed meat, and sugary drinks and alcohol, as well as the recommendation on breastfeeding. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to assess the association between lifestyle score and BCIS risk. The results were presented as hazard ratios (HR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: After an overall median follow-up time of 14.9 years, 1277 BCIS cases were diagnosed. Greater adherence to the WCRF/AICR cancer prevention recommendations was not associated with BCIS risk (HR = 0.98, 95% CI 0.93-1.03; per one unit of increase; multivariable model). An inverse association between the lifestyle score and BCIS risk was observed in study centers, where participants were recruited mainly via mammographic screening and attended additional screening throughout follow-up (HR = 0.85, 95% CI 0.73-0.99), but not in the remaining ones (HR = 0.99, 95% CI 0.94-1.05). CONCLUSIONS: While we did not observe an overall association between lifestyle and BCIS risk, our results indicate that lifestyle is associated with BCIS risk among women recruited via screening programs and with regular screening participation. This suggests that a true inverse association between lifestyle habits and BCIS risk in the overall cohort may have been masked by a lack of information on screening attendance. The potential inverse association between lifestyle and BCIS risk in our analyses is consistent with the inverse associations between lifestyle scores and breast cancer risk reported from previous studies.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: C-reactive protein (CRP), an inflammation marker, is associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk in some prospective studies. Whether increased CRP is indicative of colonic inflammation, a possible CRC cause, or of other sources of inflammation (e.g., adiposity), is unknown. Thus, we evaluated the association between CRP and colonic mucosal measures of inflammation. METHODS: 151 adults undergoing colonoscopy provided a blood sample and random left- and right-side colonic mucosal biopsies. Height and weight were measured, and lifestyle information was collected. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) was measured by immunoturbidometric assay. A gastrointestinal pathologist evaluated biopsies for seven colonic inflammation measures. Of 119 participants with complete information, 24 had an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) history and were analyzed separately. We calculated the number of colonic inflammation measures present in both biopsies, and separately for right and left biopsies. Adjusted geometric mean hsCRP was calculated using linear regression, overall, by demographic and lifestyle factors, and inflammation measures. RESULTS: Most participants had ≥ 1 colonic inflammation measure (0: 21 %, 1: 39 %, ≥ 2: 40 %). Adjusted mean hsCRP did not increase with increasing number of inflammation measures (0: 1.67; 1: 1.33; ≥ 2: 1.01 mg/L; p trend = 0.21). Obese (2.03 mg/L) and overweight (1.61 mg/L) participants had higher adjusted mean hsCRP than normal-weight participants (0.62 mg/L; p trend <0.0001). Patterns were similar for participants with a history of IBD. CONCLUSIONS: hsCRP concentration was not associated with colonic inflammation, although hsCRP increased with adiposity. The hsCRP-CRC association may be explained by residual confounding by other risk factors, such as adiposity, rather than by CRP marking colonic inflammation.
