Directly from the USA: Higher Heathy Eating Index Score Beneficial in Prostate Cancer
Higher adherence to American dietary guideline recommendations may be associated with a lower risk for grade reclassification in men diagnosed with grade group 1 (GG1) prostate cancer, according to a study published online Oct. 17 in JAMA Oncology.
Zhou Tony Su, M.D., from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, and colleagues conducted a prospective cohort study involving men diagnosed with GG1 prostate cancer from January 2005 to February 2017 who were undergoing active surveillance. The association of the baseline Healthy Eating Index 1999 to 2000 (HEI) and energy-adjusted HEI (E-HEI), Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII), and energy-adjusted DII (E-DII) scores with grade reclassification to GG2 or greater or GG3 or greater was examined.
