An exploratory case-control study of the role of diet in the etiology of breast cancer was conducted in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where the mortality rate for this disease is high and the consumption of meat, mainly beef, is unusually elevated (76.2 kilograms per head were reported for 1987). One hundred and ninety-six women with breast cancer admitted to the Institute of Oncology "Angel H. Roffo" and 205 controls were interviewed to obtain information on demographic, socio-economic and reproductive variables, on frequency of consumption of 40 food items, and on methods of cooking. Special emphasis was given to different kinds of meat. After controlling for other risk factors for breast cancer the major dietary associations observed were a statistically insignificant trend of increasing risk with amount of beef consumed, an increase in risk in women who ate more than 3 eggs per week, and an increase in risk in women who ate a variety of fried foods.
在阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯开展了一项关于饮食在乳腺癌病因中作用的探索性病例对照研究。该地区这种疾病的死亡率很高，肉类消费量，主要是牛肉消费量异常高（据报告1987年人均消费量为76.2公斤）。对“安吉尔·H·罗福”肿瘤研究所收治的196名乳腺癌女性患者和205名对照者进行了访谈，以获取有关人口统计学、社会经济和生殖变量、40种食物的消费频率以及烹饪方法的信息。特别强调了不同种类的肉类。在控制了乳腺癌的其他风险因素后，观察到的主要饮食关联包括：随着牛肉消费量增加，风险虽有上升趋势但无统计学意义；每周吃3个以上鸡蛋的女性风险增加；吃各种油炸食品的女性风险增加。
