• Dietary and genetic obesity promote liver inflammation and tumorigenesis by enhancing IL-6 and TNF expression (2010, background): “Recently, a number of large-scale epidemiological studies have pointed out that overweight and obesity, defined by body mass index (BMI) higher than 25, result in a substantial increase in cancer risk (Bianchini et al., 2002; Calle and Kaaks, 2004; Calle et al., 2003).”
• Anthropometrical parameters and markers of obesity in rats (2007, background): “Diet is certainly of importance to obesity incidence and to its negative consequences, such as cancer (Bianchini et al. 2002), aging (Hart et al.”
• Obesity and Risk of Colorectal Cancer: A Meta-analysis of 31 Studies with 70,000 Events (2007, background): “It seems that the excess risk of colorectal cancer may be higher among obese men compared with obese women, but findings of a sex difference have been inconsistently reported (6, 9-11).”
• Caloric restriction. (2011, result): “This hypothesis is also consistent with the fact that obesity is typically associated with increased tumor susceptibility (Bianchini et al., 2002; Brandon et al., 2009; Blackwell et al., 1995; Speakman and Goran, 2010) and under CR animals lose significant amounts of body fat in direct relation to…”
• Obesity and Risk of Colorectal Cancer: A Systematic Review of Prospective Studies (2013, background): “Previous reviews have indicated that obesity is associated with 7% to 60% greater risk of CRC compared with normal weight individuals [3,57].”
• Hepatocellular carcinoma in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: an emerging menace. (2012, background): “Several large-scale epidemiological studies have associated the increasingly prevalent overweight and obesity with a higher risk of HCC [7,8].”
