Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) represents the third most common type of cancer worldwide with high incidence rates in our country as well. Both dietary habits and lifestyle factors have a strong contribution in preventing colorectal cancer. A healthy dietary pattern based on adequate intake of fruit, non-starchy vegetables, and whole grains is associated with positive outcomes regarding CRC development. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the dietary intake of plant-based food and food groups, along with lifestyle habits of CRC patients. A case-control study was conducted during April 2015 – October 2017. Patients (n=151) recently diagnosed with CRC and undergoing conventional treatment were recruited from Medisprof Oncology Hospital. Controls (n=151) were selected randomly from generally healthy adults. Dietary and lifestyle data were collected during a face to face interview and the applied lifestyle questionnaire included 74 items. The results showed that intake of specific food groups with high content of bioactive components was significantly higher in the control group compared to the CRC group (p<0.05), even though overall vegetable intake was similar between groups (p=0.51). Results also showed significant lower intakes of fiber-rich foods such as whole grains, nuts and legumes in the CRC group.
植物性食物摄入与结直肠癌罗马尼亚的病例对照研究
结直肠癌(CRC)是世界上第三大最常见的癌症类型,在我国也有很高的发病率。饮食习惯和生活方式因素对预防结直肠癌都有很大的作用。以摄入足够的水果、非淀粉类蔬菜和全谷物为基础的健康饮食模式与结直肠癌发展的积极结果相关。本研究的目的是评估结直肠癌患者的植物性食物和食物组的饮食摄入量以及生活习惯。2015年4月至2017年10月期间进行了病例对照研究。近期诊断为结直肠癌并接受常规治疗的患者(n=151)从Medisprof肿瘤医院招募。对照组(n=151)从一般健康的成年人中随机选择。通过面对面访谈收集饮食和生活方式数据,应用生活方式问卷包括74个项目。结果表明,尽管各组蔬菜总摄入量相似(p=0.51),但对照组生物活性成分含量高的特定食物组的摄入量显著高于结直肠癌组(p<0.05)。研究结果还显示,结直肠癌组中富含纤维的食物,如全谷物、坚果和豆类的摄入量显著降低。
