among the most rapidly increasing cancers in Western countries. Elevated BMI in adulthood …

Background: Elevated body mass index (BMI, kg m− 2) has been consistently associated
with oesophageal adenocarcinoma (EA) and gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA) …

BACKGROUND To the authors' knowledge, little work has been done concerning

Background: Middle-aged obese adults are at substantially elevated risk of oesophageal
adenocarcinoma. It is unclear whether this risk originates earlier in life. Methods: We …

BACKGROUND This study assessed adolescent predictors of noncardia gastric cancer
(NCGC) with a focus on the body mass index (BMI) in late adolescence. METHODS This …

Background The incidence rates of esophageal and gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (EGCA)
have increased over recent years in several countries, and overweight/obesity has been …

Background: Esophageal adenocarcinoma is rapidly increasing in incidence. Body mass
index (BMI) is a risk factor, but its distribution does not reflect the demographic distribution of …

Objective The incidence of oesophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) has increased rapidly over
the past 40 years and accumulating evidence suggests that obesity, as measured by body …

Emerging evidence has indicated a possible link between obesity in early life with
subsequent cancer risks, but its association with gastric cancer remains unknown. This study …

Background: In the last decades, the incidence of oesophageal and gastric cardia
adenocarcinoma has increased rapidly in the Western world. We investigated the …
