Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Some experimental evidence suggests that iron may play a role in colorectal carcinogenesis, but human data for this role have been conflicting, possibly because of problems related to study design or measurement of iron exposure. We assessed dietary iron intake and genetic and biochemical markers of iron status in a prospective, nested case-control study of women enrolled in the Nurses' Health Study....
