Title
A Research Investigation on the Association between Various Dietary Patterns and the Incidence Risk of Renal Cancer.
Summary
Renal cancer is the second most lethal malignancy in the urinary system. According to the latest GLOBOCAN data, there were approximately 430,000 new cases of kidney cancer and 180,000 deaths in 2020 [1]. Multiple behavioral and environmental factors are associated with the development and progression of kidney cancer, including use of painkillers, smoking, obesity, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease [2]. Numerous studies have investigated the relationship between diet and kidney cancer risk, but analysis of risk associated with individual nutrients or foods (such as alcohol consumption, vitamin D, coffee, fruits and vegetables) has yielded inconsistent results in epidemiological studies [3-7].Hence, our objective is to examine the association between dietary pattern and renal cancer using data from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial prospective cohort.

Aims

(1) Evaluate the association between different dietary pattern(DASH\Mediterranean diet\DRRD,etc) and risk of renal cancer.
(2) Investigate the interactions of dietary pattern with BMI, smoking, physical activity, drug use, vitamin supplement and type 2 diabetes on renal cancer risk.
