Association between allergic conditions and colorectal cancer risk/mortality: a meta-analysis of prospective studies

Abstract We aimed to assess the association between allergic conditions and risk/mortality of colorectal cancer (CRC). A systematic literature search was conducted using Pubmed and Embase to identify relevant studies. Prospective studies assessing the association between allergic conditions and risk...
