Abstract in brief

  • The meta-analysis reviewed 21 epidemiological studies to examine whether dairy sugar, specifically lactose, impacts ovarian cancer risk, with mixed results from different study types.
  • The analysis found that case-control studies showed inconsistent results, mostly not supporting a link, whereas cohort studies demonstrated a significant positive association between higher dairy/lactose intake and increased ovarian cancer risk.
  • Overall, the results suggest that higher intake of dairy products and lactose may increase ovarian cancer risk, especially based on prospective cohort studies, with a daily increase of 10 grams of lactose associated with about a 13% higher risk.
