ABSTRACT: Background&aims
Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, including gastric, liver, esophageal, pancreatic, and colorectal cancers, represent significant global health burdens. Emerging evidence suggests that dietary patterns, particularly their inflammatory and oxidative properties, may influence cancer risk. The Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and Dietary Oxidative Balance Score (DOBS) assess the inflammatory and oxidative effects of diets, respectively. This study aims to explore the association between DII, DOBS, and the combined risk of GI cancers, and investigates the potential mediating roles of serum albumin and red cell distribution width (RDW).Methods
Data from 26,320 participants in the NHANES 2005-2018 cycles were analyzed. DII was calculated based on 28 dietary component
