    Abstract:

    Objective:To study the effects of green tea and its possible interactions with relevant factors on the risk of lung cancer in Dafeng County,an area with high cancer incidence in Jiangsu Province,China. Methods:A population-based case-control study was carried out in Dafeng Country,523 newly diagnosed lung cancer cases and 1 924 health control subjects were recruited. Epidemiology data were collected by interviews using a standard questionnaire. Unconditional Logistic regression was applied for calculating crude odds ratio(ORCru) and adjusted odds ratio(ORAdj). Results:A decreasing association between regular green tea drinking and lung cancer risk was observed with ORAdj of 0.520(95% CI:0.392~0.691). Moreover,dose-response relationship between the age of first green tea drinking and risk of lung cancer was found(Pfor Trend Adj < 0.000 1). There were interactions between regular green tea drinking and smoking history,total cigarettes consumptions(≥ 30 pack·year),alcohol drinking and continual cooking oil exposure,respectively. Furthermore,there were significant interactions between regular green tea drinking and smoking history(ORAdj for interaction:0.575;95% CI:0.425~0.777) and total cigarettes consumptions(≥30 pack·year)(ORAdj for interaction:0.706;95% CI:0.500~0.999),which reduced the risk of lung cancer. Conclusion:Regular green tea drinking could reduce the risk of lung cancer in high cancer incidence areas and could be used for lung cancer chemoprevention.
