Component

Advanced colorectal lesion incidence

Independently recorded substance, clinical endpoint or assay readout. Claims retain study-specific population and measurement context.

1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What acts on it

  1. Among 607 participants with a second follow-up, advanced lesions occurred in 11.6% versus 6.9% (RR 1.67; 95% CI 1.00–2.80; P=0.05).

    experimental_model
    Randomized double-blind factorial trial in 1021 adults with recent colorectal adenomas; independently randomized aspirin exposure.

    Folic acid 1 mg/day versus placebo; colonoscopy at first three-year interval and a later surveillance interval.
    limitations
    Secondary endpoint with substantial follow-up attrition and uncertainty; cannot establish that food folate causes cancer or identify the cellular mechanism.
