Abstract

The article focuses on a study which examined the associations of coffee, tea and other caffeinated beverages with ovarian cancer risk. The risks were assessed using logistic regression to calculate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. The study found that neither caffeinated or noncaffeinated coffees were associated with ovarian cancer risk. It is suggested that green tea should be further investigated for its cancer prevention properties.
