Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Niki Dimou"
- Niki Dimou's recent research primarily focuses on the intersection of genetics, diet, and environmental factors in cancer risk, particularly colorectal and endometrial cancers, employing large-scale cohort studies and Mendelian randomization analyses to explore gene-environment interactions.
- Findings indicate significant additive and synergistic interactions between dietary habits, obesity, inflammation markers, and genetic predispositions, suggesting that understanding these relationships could enhance public health interventions for cancer prevention.
- Dimou's work highlights the complexity of cancer risk factors, revealing that genetic risk scores can modify the effects of lifestyle choices, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use and menopausal hormone therapy, on cancer susceptibility.
