Abstract

BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal cancers, including esophageal, gastric, liver and pancreatic are relatively common in IRAN. Furthermore, consumption of OPIUM and its derivatives (O&D) are considerable. This study, aimed to examine the association between consumption of O&D and the incidence of upper gastrointestinal (UGI) cancers.METHODS: In a matched CASE-control study in Kerman (located in southeast of IRAN), 142 patients with UGI cancers and 284 healthy people (matched in terms of age, sex and residence (urban/rural)) were recruited. Variables (using O&D, smoking, alcohol use and diet) were collected using a structured questionnaire. Conditional logistic regression models were used to assess the above mentioned association.RESULTS: OPIUM use was associated with an increased risk of UGI cancers with an adjusted OR 4.0 (95% CI: 2.2-7.0). A very strong dose-response relation was observed between consumption of O&D and the incidence of UGI cancers. (Three consumption levels-none, low and high, OR=18.7, 95% CI: 5.5–63.3). This dose-response relationship was also strong even in patients with gastric cancers (OR: 9.2, 95% CI: 2.5-33.7).Conclusion: The results of this study showed that OPIUM consumption can be a strong risk factor for UGI cancers in IRAN.
