Lipid Levels and Lung Cancer Risk: Findings from the Taiwan National Data Systems from 2012 to 2018.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Lipids are known to be involved in carcinogenesis, but the associations between lipid profiles and different lung cancer histological classifications remain unknown.

Methods

Individuals who participated in national adult health surveillance from 2012 to 2018 were included. For patients who developed lung cancer during follow-up, a 1:2 control group of nonlung cancer participants was selected after matching. Multivariate conditional logistic regression was used to explore the associations between lipid profiles, different lung cancer histological classifications and epidermal growth factor receptor mutation statuses. Subgroup, sensitivity, and dose‒response analyses were also performed.

Results

A total of 4,704,853 participants (30,337 lung cancer participan
