In A hospital-based case-control study consisting of 220 confirmed MM cases
and 220 individually matched patient controls, by sex, age and hospital
was carried out at 5 major hospitals in Northwest China. A
questionnaire was used to obtain information on demographics, family
history, and the frequency of food items consumed, posted in US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, indicated that Based on multivariate analysis, a significant association between the
risk of MM and family history of cancers in first degree relatives was
observed (OR=4.03, 95% CI: 2.50-6.52). Fried food, cured/smoked food,
black tea, and fish were not significantly associated with the risk of
MM. Intake of shallot and garlic (OR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.43-0.85), soy
food (OR=0.52, 95% CI: 0.36-0.75) and green tea (OR=0.38, 95% CI:
0.27-0.53) was significantly associated with a reduced risk of MM. In
contrast, intake
of brined vegetables and pickle was significantly associated with an
increased risk (OR=2.03, 95% CI: 1.41-2.93). A more than multiplicative
interaction on the decreased risk of MM was found between shallot/garlic
and soy food.
