Summary: | Evidence for a role of single nutrition or foods on ovarian cancer (OC) survival has been limited and inconclusive. Due to the potentially complex interactions in dietary, we applied dietary patterns to this study to firstly explore the relationship between the pre-diagnosis overall diet and OC survival.
The prospective cohort study was conducted among 853 OC patients aged 18–79 years during 2015–2020. Dietary intake was collected using a validated 111-item food frequency questionnaire. Deaths were obtained by medical records and cancer registry up to March 31, 2021. Cox proportional hazards regression models was used to evaluate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the associations of pre-diagnosis dietary patterns with overall survival (OS).
Overall, during the follow-up period (median: 37.57 months, interquartile: 25.00–50.17 months), 130 (18.49%) OC patients died. Four dietary patterns were identified: healthy pattern, ethnic pattern, animal foods pattern, and sweet pattern. The highest tertile of the healthy pattern scores was related to better OS compared with the lowest tertile scores (HR = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.30–0.98, p trend |
