Abstract excerpt

Conditions causing high iron levels, such as hemochromatosis, are proposed risk factors for esophageal adenocarcinoma. Although this hypothesis is supported by animal models, no human data currently exist. We conducted a case-control study of persons with a new Barrett's esophagus diagnosis (cases), persons with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) (without Barrett's esophagus), and population controls....
