The role of diet history and biologic assays in the study of "diet and breast cancer".

Nutritional factors related to breast cancer were investigated by means of a hospital-based case-control study in Milan (Italy) and Montpellier (France). Liposoluble vitamins, cholesterol and triglycerides were measured in blood samples taken from interviewed subjects (319 cases and 344 controls). In addition serum zinc and copper was assessed in the Italian samples and serum fatty acids and malonyl-di-aldehyde in the French samples. A significant difference was found between cases and controls in total fat and cholesterol intake in both populations, and in saturated fatty acid and mono-unsaturated fatty acid consumption in the French samples. No difference emerged in liposoluble vitamin consumption in both populations nor in zinc and copper consumption in the Italian samples. A statistically significant higher serum level of cholesterol and plasma level of vitamin E was observed in cases compared to controls in both populations. The difference in plasma vitamin E was confirmed after adjustment on total cholesterol and triglycerides. Similarly, zinc serum level was higher in Italian cases than in Italian controls, while malonyl-di-aldehyde was lower in French cases than French controls. A multivariate analysis was performed after classification of cases and controls according to quantile distribution of controls. Nutrient consumption and relevant blood markers were directly or partially correlated in both populations. All known risk factors plus age, serum total cholesterol and triglycerides were used as covariates. The odds ratio values for the highest quantiles are: Dietary cholesterol, OR = 1.9 (1.1-3.4); total dietary lipids, OR = 1.9 (1.0-3.4); plasma vitamin E, OR = 4.2 (1.9-9.0); serum zinc, OR = 12.2 (5.4-27.7); serum malonyl-di-aldehyde, OR = 0.56 (0.33-0.97).

A net carbohydrate and protein system for evaluating cattle diets: III. Cattle requirements and diet adequacy.

The Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) has equations for predicting nutrient requirements, feed intake, and feed utilization over wide variations in cattle (frame size, body condition, and stage of growth), feed carbohydrate and protein fractions and their digestion and passage rates, and environmental conditions. Independent data were used to validate the ability of the CNCPS to predict responses compared to National Research Council (NRC) systems. With DMI in steers, the CNCPS had a 12% lower standard error of the Y estimate (Sy.x) and three percentage units less bias than the NRC system. For DMI in heifers, both systems had a similar Sy.x but the NRC had four percentage units less bias. With lactating dairy cows' DMI, the CNCPS had a 12% lower Sy.x. Observed NEm requirement averaged 5% under NRC and 6% under CNCPS predicted values at temperatures above 9 degrees C but were 18% over NRC and 9% under CNCPS at temperatures under 9 degrees C. Energy retained was predicted with an R2 of .80 and .95 and a bias of 8 and 4% for the NRC and CNCPS, respectively. Protein retained was predicted with an R2 of .75 and .85 with a bias of 0 and -1% for NRC and CNCPS, respectively. Biases due to frame size, implant, or NEg were small. Body condition scores predicted body fat percentage in dairy cows with an R2 of .93 and a Sy.x of 2.35% body fat. The CNCPS predicted metabolizable protein allowable ADG with a bias of 1.6% with a Sy.x of .07 kg compared to values of -30% and .10 kg, respectively for the NRC system.
