“…It is also possible that the widespread use of aspirin for a variety of health reasons may be having an impact. There is some evidence that milk consumption is protective against colorectal cancer. The present finding of a left‐to‐right shift in colorectal cancer in those aged 80 years and over has been documented internationally.…”

This article has an accompanying continuing medical education activity, also eligible for MOC credit, on page e159. Learning Objective-Upon completion of this activity, successful learners will be able to identify the risk for developing colorectal cancer (CRC) related to the type of family history; identify the absolute risk for developing colorectal cancer for individuals with at least one first degree relative (FDR) with CRC younger than 50 years; and define "familial colorectal cancer." BACKGROUND & AIMS: Guidelines recommend that individuals with familial colorectal cancer undergo colonoscopy surveillance instead of average-risk screening. However, these recommendations vary widely. To substantiate appropriate surveillance strategies, precise and valid evidence-based risk estimates are needed for individuals with a family history of colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS: We systematically searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane from inception to July 2018 for case-control and cohort studies investigating the effect of family history on CRC risk. We calculated summary estimates of pooled relative risks (RRs) using a random-effects model. Life tables were created to convert RR estimates into absolute risk estimates. RESULTS: We screened 4417 articles and identified 42 eligible case-control and 20 cohort studies. In case-control studies, the RR for CRC in patients with 1 first-degree relative (FDR with CRC) was 1.92 (95% CI, 1.53-2.41) and 1.37 (95% CI, 0.76-2.46) for cohort studies. For individuals with 2 or more FDRs with CRC, the RR was 2.81 in case-control studies (95% CI, 1.73-4.55) and 2.40 in cohort studies (95% CI, 1.76-3.28). For individuals having a FDR diagnosed with CRC at an age younger than 50 years, the RR for CRC in their FDRs was 3.57 in case-control studies (95% CI, 1.07-11.85) and 3.26 in cohort studies (95% CI, 2.82-3.77). The cumulative absolute risks for CRC at 85 years in Western Europe were 4.8% for persons with 1 FDR with CRC (95% CI, 2.7%-8.3%), 8.2% for individuals with 2 or more FDRs (95% CI, 6.1%-10.9%), and 11% for persons with a FDR diagnosed with CRC at an age younger than 50 years (95% CI, 9.5%-12.4%). CONCLUSIONS: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we found that the RR of CRC among FDRs is lower than previously expected, especially based on cohort studies. Risk estimates are affected by the number of relatives with CRC and their age at diagnosis. Intensified colonoscopy surveillance strategies could be considered for high-risk groups.

“…Korde et al (30) further found that soy consumption in childhood, and all through life, was associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer. Diet during adolescence and midlife may be associated with risks of thyroid (31) and colorectal (27) cancer, with a reduced risk of colorectal cancer appearing to be associated with childhood milk consumption (23,32). Despite the evidence suggesting that early-life diet may influence risk of cancer later in life, to our knowledge there are no studies that have examined early-life diet in relation to pancreatic cancer.…”

“…Much of the existing literature concerning the relationship between early-life diet and adult cancer risk focuses on breast and colorectal cancer (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29), with results suggesting that red meat consumption and total fat intake are associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. Korde et al (30) further found that soy consumption in childhood, and all through life, was associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer.…”

Given the long latency period of pancreatic cancer, exploring the influence of early and midlife exposures will further advance our understanding of the disease. We assessed associations between diet and pancreatic cancer incidence in the National Institutes of Health (NIH)-AARP (formerly American Association of Retired Persons) Diet and Health Study. In 1996, a total of 303,094 participants completed 2 food frequency questionnaires that assessed diet at ages 12-13 years and 10 years previously. We used Cox proportional hazards regression to estimate adjusted hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Through the end of 2006, a total of 1,322 pancreatic cancer cases occurred (average follow up time = 10.1 years). When comparing the highest tertiles with the lowest, carbohydrate intake during adolescence (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.87, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.76, 0.99), but not 10 years before baseline, was inversely associated with pancreatic cancer risk. Total fat intake 10 years before baseline was significantly associated with increased risk (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.02, 1.34), while risk was higher for high fat intake during both adolescence and midlife. Calcium intake 10 years before baseline was associated with reduced risk (HR = 0.87, 95% CI: 0.76, 0.99), as was a change from low intake in adolescence to high intake in midlife (HR = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.54, 0.93). Our study found a number of dietary factors present during adolescence and midlife to be associated with pancreatic cancer.
