Dietary inflammatory index and risk of esophageal squamous cell cancer in a case-control study from Iran
N Shivappa, JR H�bert, B Rashidkhani�- Nutrition and cancer, 2015 - Taylor & Francis
Diet and inflammation have been suggested to be important risk factors for esophageal
squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In this study, we examined the ability of the dietary
inflammatory index (DII) to predict ESCC in a case-control study conducted in Iran. This
study included 47 ESCC cases and 96 controls hospitalized for acute nonneoplastic
diseases. The DII was computed based on dietary intake assessed by a previously validated
food frequency questionnaire. Logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios�…

Purpose Diet and inflammation have been suggested to be important risk factors for
esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC). In this study, we examined the association
between the dietary inflammatory index (DII) and ESCC in a case–control study conducted
between 1992 and 1997 in Italy. Methods This study included 304 ESCC cases and 743
controls hospitalized for acute non-neoplastic diseases. The DII was computed based on
dietary intake assessed by a reproducible and valid 78-item food frequency questionnaire�…
