Association between dietary inflammatory index and oral cancer risk: A systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Dietary inflammatory index (DII) has been suggested to be associated with oral cancer risk. However, a quantitative comprehensive assessment of the dose-response relationship has not been reported. We performed a meta-analysis to clarify the risk of oral cancer with DII.

Methods

We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases for relevant articles published up to 1 March 2022. Fixed- or random-effects models were utilized to estimate the pooled odds ratio (OR) of oral cancer with DII, as appropriate. Restricted cubic splines were used to model the dose-response relationship.

Results

We included five case-control studies involving 1,278 cases and 5,137 controls in the meta-analysis. Risk of oral cancer was increased by 135% with th
