Title
Diabetes risk reduction diet and the risk of head and neck cancer: a large prospective cohort study
Summary
Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the seventh most common type of cancer worldwide with high incidence rate and poor prognosis[1]. Research shows that dietary factors are associated with the incidence of HNC[2] Recently, a popular dietary pattern for diabetes prevention named diabetes risk reduction diet (DRRD) was established[3]. Nine dietary variables including cereal fiber, nuts, coffee, whole fruits, the ratio of polyunsaturated to saturated fat, glycemic index (GI), trans-fat, sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs)/fruit juices, and red and processed meats composed of DRRD[4]. Currently, some prospective studies by large populations suggest that adherence to DRRD can reduce the risk of many cancers, such as lung cancer[5], endometrial cancer[6], breast cancer[4] and pancreatic cancer[7]. However, the impact of DRRD on the risk of HNC remains unclear. Given the high popularity of DRRD and the dismal prognosis of HNC, we performed the study to explore the association between the DRRD and the incidence of HNC.

Aims
To investigate whether adherence to diabetes risk reduction diet is associated with a lower head and neck cancer risk in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial.
