Anthropometry-based Obesity Phenotypes and Risk of Colorectal Adenocarcinoma: A Large Prospective Cohort Study in Norway.

Epidemiology (Cambridge, Mass.) - 1 May 2016

Lu Yunxia, Ness-Jensen Eivind, Martling Anna, Hveem Kristian

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: It is unclear whether obesity phenotypes measured by different anthropometric indices are associated with a risk of colorectal adenocarcinoma by anatomical location. METHODS: We compiled harmonized population-based cohort studies (Cohort of Norway, CONOR) with 143,477 participants that were conducted between 1994 and 2010. General, abdominal, and gluteofemoral obesity were assessed by body mass index...
