The association between global and prime diet quality scores and the risk of breast cancer: a case control study
A high diet quality, as indicated by high total GDQS and total PDQS scores, was associated with a decreased risk of breast cancer. These findings highlight a potential role of overall diet quality in breast cancer etiology but should be interpreted as observational associations rather than evidence of causal or therapeutic effects.
