Westernized diet is related to gastric cancer risk and inflammation, oxidative stress, and metabolic dysregulation: evidence from an incidence case-control study.
Westernized dietary patterns (WDPs), characterized by processed foods, red meats, refined grains, and added sugars, may contribute to gastric cancer (GC) development. We hypothesized that alignment with WDPs, as measured by the Westernized diet index (WDI), is associated with an increased risk of GC. In this incidence...
