dc.description.abstractenBackground: The associations of cancer with types of diets, including vegetarian, fsh, and poultrycontaining diets, remain unclear. The aim of this study was, therefore, to investigate the association of type of diet with all cancers and 19 sitespecifc incident cancers in a prospective cohort study and then in a metaanalysis of published prospective cohort studies. Methods: A total of 409,110 participants from the UK Biobank study, recruited between 2006 and 2010, were included. The outcomes were incidence of all cancers combined and 19 cancer sites. Associations between the types of diets and cancer were investigated using Cox proportional hazards models. Previously published prospective cohort studies were identifed from four databases, and a metaanalysis was conducted using randomefects models. Results: The mean followup period was 10.6 years (IQR 10.0; 11.3). Compared with meateaters, vegetarians (hazard ratio (HR) 0.87 [95% CI: 0.79 to 0.96]) and pescatarians (HR 0.93 [95% CI: 0.87 to 1.00]) had lower overall cancer risk. Vegetarians also had a lower risk of colorectal and prostate cancers compared with meateaters. In the metaanalysis, vegetarians (Risk Ratio (RR): 0.90 [0.86 to 0.94]) and pescatarians (RR 0.91 [0.86; 0.96]) had lower risk of overall and colo‑rectal cancer. No associations between the types of diets and prostate, breast, or lung cancers were found. Conclusions: Compared with meateaters, vegetarians and pescatarians had a lower risk of overall, colorectal, and prostate cancer. When results were pooled in a metaanalysis, the associations with overall and colorectal cancer persisted, but the results relating to other specifc cancer sites were inconclusive.
