Alcohol intake and stomach cancer risk in Japan: A pooled analysis of six cohort studies
Regular drinking of alcohol may put men at high risk of developing stomach cancer.
This meta-analysis studied the risk of stomach cancer among alcohol drinkers. Data from over a quarter of a million persons who took part in 6 Japanese studies were utilized for this meta-analysis.
Researchers discovered that alcohol consumption resulted in an upsurge in stomach cancer risk in men. The findings of this meta-analysis suggest that alcohol intake may precipitate the development of stomach cancer in men.
