abstract = {Iron is an essential micronutrient with differing intake
patterns and metabolism between men and women. Epidemiologic
evidence on the association of dietary iron and its heme and
non-heme components with colorectal cancer (CRC) development
is inconclusive.We examined baseline dietary
questionnaire-assessed intakes of total, heme, and non-heme
iron and CRC risk in the EPIC cohort. Sex-specific
multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and $95\%$
confidence intervals (CIs) were computed using Cox
regression. We modelled substitution of a 1 mg/day of heme
iron intake with non-heme iron using the leave one-out
method.Of 450,105 participants (318,680 women) followed for
14.2 ± 4.0 years, 6162 (3511 women) developed CRC. In men,
total iron intake was not associated with CRC risk (highest
vs. lowest quintile, HRQ5vs.Q1:0.88; $95\%CI:0.73,$ 1.06).
An inverse association was observed for non-heme iron
(HRQ5vs.Q1:0.80, $95\%CI:0.67,$ 0.96) whereas heme iron
showed a non-significant association (HRQ5vs.Q1:1.10;
$95\%CI:0.96,$ 1.27). In women, CRC risk was not associated
with intakes of total (HRQ5vs.Q1:1.11, $95\%CI:0.94,$ 1.31),
heme (HRQ5vs.Q1:0.95; $95\%CI:0.84,$ 1.07) or non-heme iron
(HRQ5vs.Q1:1.03, $95\%CI:0.88,$ 1.20). Substitution of heme
with non-heme iron demonstrated lower CRC risk in men
(HR:0.94; $95\%CI:$ 0.89, 0.99).Our findings suggest
potential sex-specific CRC risk associations for higher iron
consumption that may differ by dietary sources.},
