This study indicates that total flavonoids and most flavonoid subclasses intakes were inversely associated with breast cancer risk.
PMID: Eur J Cancer Prev. 2019 Nov 14. Epub 2019 Nov 14. PMID: 31738218 Abstract Title: Association between flavonoids, flavonoid subclasses intake and breast cancer risk: a case-control study in China. Abstract: Anti-tumor effect of dietary flavonoids has been sustained by laboratory experiments, but epidemiological studies with breast cancer risk remained inconsistent and insufficient. This …
The present results suggest that high intakes of flavonoids may be associated with decreased risk of ischaemic stroke and possibly with reduced CVD mortality.
PMID: Br J Nutr. 2008 Oct ;100(4):890-5. Epub 2008 Apr 1. PMID: 18377681 Abstract Title: Flavonoid intake and the risk of ischaemic stroke and CVD mortality in middle-aged Finnish men: the Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease Risk Factor Study. Abstract: The role of flavonoids in CVD, especially in strokes, is unclear. Our aim was to study …
The risk of lung cancer related to dietary intake of flavonoids.
PMID: Nutr Cancer. 2012 ;64(7):964-74. PMID: 23061904 Abstract Title: The risk of lung cancer related to dietary intake of flavonoids. Abstract: It has been hypothesized that flavonoids in foods and beverages may reduce cancer risk through antioxidation, inhibition of inflammation, and other antimutagenic and antiproliferative properties. We examined associations between intake of 5 flavonoid subclasses …

This study provides evidence for a preventive effect of flavonols on pancreatic cancer.
PMID: Am J Epidemiol. 2007 Oct 15 ;166(8):924-31. Epub 2007 Aug 9. PMID: 17690219 Abstract Title: Flavonols and pancreatic cancer risk: the multiethnic cohort study. Abstract: Only a few prospective studies have investigated flavonols as risk factors for cancer, none of which has included pancreatic cancer. The latter is usually fatal, rendering knowledge about prevention …

Vitamin B6 reduces oxidative stress in lungs and liver in experimental sepsis.
PMID: An Acad Bras Cienc. 2019 ;91(4):e20190434. Epub 2019 Dec 2. PMID: 31800708 Abstract Title: Vitamin B6 reduces oxidative stress in lungs and liver in experimental sepsis. Abstract: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction induced by a disrupted host response to infecting pathogens. Inflammation and oxidative stress are intrinsically related to sepsis progression and organ …
