“…Excessive use of salt has impacted on cancer incidence which is consistent with D'Elia study (D'Elia et al, 2012) but in Van den Brandt study have not significant association between use of salt and gastric cancer occurrence (Van den Brandt et al, 2003). Interpreting wide range of reports can be due to various definition of salt consumption in relation to gastric cancer.…”

Golestan province has a reputation for relatively high incidence rates of gastric cancer in Iran. Along with dietary, lifestyle and environmental influential factors, soil selenium and high levels of pesticide used may exert influence in this region. The present study was designed for modeling the influential predictors on incidence of gastric cancer in Golestan. All registered cases of gastric cancer from March 2009 to March 2010 (49 females and 107 males) were investigated. Data were gathered by both check list and researcher made questionnaire (demographic, clinical and lifestyle characteristics) and analysed using logistic regression. Mean (±SD) age at diagnosis was 62.9±13.8 years. CIR and ASR of gastric cancer showed 9.16 and 13.9 per 100,000 people, respectively. Based on univariate logistic regression, a history of smoking (OR= 2.076), unwashed hands after defecation (OR= 2.612), history of cancer in relatives (OR= 2.473), history of gastric cancer in first-degree relatives (OR= 2.278), numbers of gastric cancers in first-degree relatives (OR= 2.078), history of X-ray and dye exposure (OR= 2.395), history of CT scan encounter (OR= 2.915), improper food habits (OR= 3.320), specific eating behavior (OR= 0.740), consumption of probable high risk foods (OR= 2.942), charred flesh (OR= 1.945), and animal fat (OR= 2.716) were confirmed as a risk factors. Changes in lifestyle may be expected to increase gastric cancer incidence dramatically in the near future. Therefore, appropriate educational interventions should be designed and implemented by competent authorities

The role of smoking and dietary factors in the development of gastric cancer should be addressed in health education programs for US Asian communities.…”

“…There is also an established link between a high dietary salt intake and gastric cancer and a recent meta-analysis of prospective studies found a relative risk of 1.68 (95% confidence interval: 1.17-2.41) for high versus low salt intakes (D'Elia et al, 2012;D'Elia et al, 2014;Moore, 2014).…”

Gastric Cancer in Asian American Populations: a Neglected Health Disparity

Gastric cancer incidence rates vary dramatically by world region with East Asia having the highest rate. The Asian population of the United States (US) is growing rapidly and over 17 million Americans are of Asian descent. A majority of Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese Americans are immigrants. Americans of East and Southeast Asian descent experience marked gastric cancer disparities and the incidence rate among Korean men in the US is over five times higher than the incidence rate among non-Hispanic white men. Randomized controlled trials have provided evidence for the effectiveness of helicobacter pylori identification and eradication in preventing gastric cancer. Additionally, Japan and South Korea have both experienced improvements in gastric cancer mortality following the implementation of programs to detect early stage gastric cancers. There are currently no clear US guidelines regarding the primary and secondary prevention of gastric cancer in high-risk immigrant populations. However, it is likely that a proportion of US physicians are already recommending gastric cancer screening for Asian patients and some Asian immigrants to the US may be completing screening for gastric cancer in their native countries. Surveys of US primary care physicians and Asian American communities should be conducted to assess current provider practices and patient uptake with respect to gastric cancer prevention and control. In the absence of clinical guidelines, US health care providers who serve high-risk Asian groups could consider a shared decision-making approach to helicobacter pylori identification and eradication, as well as gastric endoscopy.

“…La evidencia es consistente en el caso del consumo elevado de alimentos salados y en salmuera, y se estima un incremento del riesgo de CG de hasta cinco veces por porción al día. 7 Los resultados re cientes de algunos metaanálisis confirman el incremento del riesgo de CG por consumo de sal 13,14 e indican que el consumo de alimentos en escabeche, particularmente de vegetales, también podría incrementarlo. 15,16 Por otra parte, se ha reconocido en la población mexicana que el consumo de sal 8 y de botanas saladas 9 se asocia con un incremento del riesgo de CG (RM= uso de sal, frecuentemente vs nunca =1.83; IC95%: 1.22-2.72, y RM= botanas saladas, >2 veces/mes vs nunca =1.80; IC95%: 1.20-2.80).…”

Dieta y cáncer gástrico en México y en el mundo

El cáncer gástrico (CG) es la cuarta causa de muerte por cáncer a nivel global. La dieta y el consumo de alcohol y tabaco, además de la infección por Helicobacter pylori determinan un gran número de casos de esta neoplasia. Algunos alimentos contienen sustancias que podrían influir en el proceso de carcinogénesis gástrica, aunque los mecanismos subyacentes no están completamente dilucidados. En México y el mundo, la disminución en el consumo de frutas, vegetales no feculentos y allium, leguminosas y alimentos fuente de selenio, así como el aumento en el consumo de sal, alimentos salados, salmuera y ahumados, chile, carnes procesadas y asadas o a la parrilla se han asociado respectivamente con un aumento de riesgo de CG. Con la evidencia disponible, se podrían desarrollar y evaluar programas para la prevención y control del CG.
