Emerging evidence suggests that diet quality indices may serve as prognostic indicators of
disease. However, the ability of these indices to predict breast cancer risk has not been …

Research on diet in breast cancer survival has been focused on single nutrients or foods,
particularly dietary fat, fruits, vegetables, fiber, and alcohol. We hypothesized that diet quality …

Although it has been suggested that dietary energy intake restriction may be related to
reduced BRCA-associated breast cancer (BC) risk, it is currently not known whether overall …

Previous studies have found that diets rich in fruits and vegetables are associated with
reduced breast cancer mortality. However, these eating patterns do not necessarily reflect …

Background: Few studies have evaluated whether adherence to dietary recommendations is
associated with mortality among cancer survivors. In breast cancer survivors, we examined …

Poor diet quality is thought to be a leading risk factor for years of life lost. We examined how
scores on 4 commonly used diet quality indices—the Healthy Eating Index 2010 (HEI), the …

The association between individual foods and breast cancer has been inconsistent.
Therefore, we examined the association between diet and risk of postmenopausal breast …

Dietary patterns influence cancer risk. However, systematic reviews have not evaluated
relationships between a priori defined diet quality scores and adult cancer risk and mortality …

Background We have previously reported on the utility of the Recommended Foods Score
(RFS), a measure of overall diet quality, in detecting associations between diet and mortality …

Background: A priori diet scores such as the Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI) and the
food-based a priori diet quality score predict chronic disease risk. Objective: We compared …
