Fruit and Vegetables Consumption and Gastric Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Cohort Studies
Abstract
Fruit and vegetable intake is widely recognized as protective for gastric cancer occurrence but prospective research challenged this belief. To evaluate the influence of design options in such results we did a meta-analysis of relevant published cohort studies identified from inception to 2004 in PubMed, EMBASE, and LILACS. Random-effects meta-analysis, stratification, and meta-regression were used to pool effects and to analyze the association with type of outcome event and length of follow-up independent of other study characteristics. An inverse association was observed between fruit intake and gastric cancer incidence (relative risk, RR = 0.82; 95% confidence interval, CI = 0.73-0.93) and stronger for follow-up periods of > or = 10 yr (RR = 0.66; 95% CI = 0.52-0.83) but not when the study outcome was death (RR = 1.08; 95% CI = 0.86-1.35). For vegetables, the RR was 0.88 (95% CI = 0.69-1.13) using all incidence studies and 0.71 (95% CI = 0.53-0.94) when considering only those with the longer follow-up. The association observed between vegetable intake and gastric cancer mortality was 1.05 (95% CI = 0.89-1.25). Other study characteristics assessed added no significant contribution to explain heterogeneity. This meta-analysis showed that design options might play a key role in the observed magnitude or the direction of the association between fruit and vegetable intake and gastric cancer.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
