Little is known about how diet might influence breast cancer prognosis. The current
systematic reviews and meta‐analyses summarise the evidence on postdiagnosis dietary …

Background: Vitamin D has been linked with improved cancer outcome. This systematic
review and meta-analysis investigates the relationship between cancer outcomes and both …

Background: Experimental studies suggest potential anti-carcinogenic properties of vitamin
D against breast cancer risk, but the epidemiological evidence to date is inconsistent …

Aim To estimate the association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25 (OH) D) levels and
survival among colorectal and breast cancer patients. Methods We performed a …

Importance There are long-standing interests in the potential benefits of vitamin D for
preventing breast cancer recurrence and mortality, yet data from prospective cohort studies …

Increasing interest in studying the role of vitamin D in cancer has been provided by the
scientific literature during the last years, although mixed results have been reported. Vitamin …

Background Vitamin D is a steroid hormone that exerts its actions through ligation of the
vitamin D receptor (VDR), a transcription factor of the nuclear receptor family. VDR has not …

Background/Aim: To determine whether higher serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25 (OH) D] at
diagnosis is associated with longer survival of patients with breast cancer. Materials and …

Context: Circulating levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25 (OH) D] may affect the prognosis of
cancer patients; however, the epidemiological results are not consistent. Objective: To …
