Dose-response analysis of total red meat, fresh red meat, processed meat, soy foods, and skim milk intake and the risk of breast cancer. (A) Dose-response analysis of total red meat intake and the risk of breast cancer. (B) Dose-response analysis of fresh red meat intake and the risk of breast cancer. (C) Dose-response analysis of processed meat intake and the risk of breast cancer. (D) Dose-response analysis of soy foods intake and the risk of breast cancer. (E) Dose-response analysis of skim milk intake and the risk of breast cancer. Overall, relative risk calculated with random effects model. As shown in the figure, total red meat (A), fresh red meat (B), and processed red meat (C) are related to increased breast cancer risk, whereas soy food (D) and skim milk (E) are related to a decreased risk of breast cancer.
