Diet and Supplements after a Cancer Diagnosis
In this paper (a prospective study of older female cancer survivors) the authors relate the data derived from using the Iowa Women’s Health Study, a prospective cohort study with 2,118 postmenopausal women with a confirmed cancer diagnosis (1986–2002), to evaluate the association between post diagnosis dietary supplement use assessed in 2004 and subsequent all-cause mortality. Risk of death was evaluated using multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression. They performed stratified analyses by diet quality score, dietary micronutrient intake, and perceived general health.
