  • Title: Contribution from descriptive studies to the etiological knowledge of colorectal cancer.
    Author: Jensen OM.
    Journal: Soz Praventivmed; 1986; 31(2):76-7. PubMed ID: 3716623.
    Abstract:
    Incidence of colorectal cancer increasing exponentially with age is confirmed but sex-age differences in incidence throughout the large bowel are shown. Observations of incidence within countries indicate that colorectal cancer is a disease of affluent societies. Furthermore, it is hypothesized that a high dietary fat intake leads to an increase in faecal components associated with colon cancer risk.
