AB  - This case-control study examined different food groups in relation to breast 
      cancer. Between 2002 and 2004, 437 cases and 922 controls matched according to 
      age and area of residence were interviewed. Diet was measured by a validated food 
      frequency questionnaire. Adjusted odds ratios (Ors) were computed across levels 
      of various dietary intakes identified by two methods: the "classical" and the 
      "spline" methods. Neither of the 2 methods found an association between total 
      fruit and vegetable consumption and breast cancer. Results of the 2 methods 
      showed a nonsignificant decreased association with cooked vegetables intake as 
      well as legumes and fish consumption. Whereas the spline method showed no 
      association, the classical method showed significant associations related to the 
      lowest consumption of raw vegetables or dairy products and breast cancer risk: 
      Adjusted OR for raw vegetable consumption between (67.4 and 101.3 g/day) vs. (< 
      67.4 g/day) was 0.63 [95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.43-0.93]. Adjusted OR for 
      dairy consumption between (134.3 and 271.2 g/day) vs. (< 134.3 g/day) was 1.57 
      (95% CI = 1.06-2.32). However, the overall results were not consistent. Compared 
      to the classical method, the use of the spline method showed a significant 
      association for cereal, meat, and olive oil. Cereal and olive oil were inversely 
      associated with breast cancer risk. Breast cancer risk increased by 56% for each 
      additional 100 g/day of meat consumption. Studies using novel methodological 
      techniques are needed to confirm the dietary threshold responsible for changes in 
      breast cancer risk. New approaches that consist in analyzing dietary patterns 
      rather than dietary food are necessary.
