EAT-Lancet Diet Adherence and Cancer Outcomes Meta-Analysis Results

A systematic review and meta-analysis of 15 cohort studies published between 2019 and 2025. It pools adjusted hazard ratios to examine the association between adherence to the EAT-Lancet diet and cancer incidence and mortality. The dataset was created by Xinhe Li and uploaded to figshare in June 2026.

Use Cases

• Conducting secondary meta-analyses based on the pooled hazard ratios for overall cancer incidence and mortality.
• Investigating site-specific cancer associations, particularly for lung cancer, using the reported effect estimates.
• Assessing methodological heterogeneity and publication bias in nutritional epidemiology research.

Strengths

• Includes results from 15 cohort studies, providing a substantial evidence base.
• Reports specific hazard ratios and confidence intervals for overall cancer incidence (HR=0.90) and mortality (HR=0.92).
• Conducted sensitivity analysis and publication-bias assessment, as noted in the methods.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The description notes heterogeneity, residual confounding, and differences in adherence assessment across the included studies.
