In addition, the authors noted that increased
folate intakewasassociatedwith decreased oral cancer risk,
with an adjustedORin the highest versus lowest quartile of
0.6 (95% CI, 0.4, 1.0), but this protection was restricted to
folate intake from fruits (adjusted OR, 0.4; 95% CI, 0.2-0.6;
Ptrend = 0.0001), and not from other dietary folate sources.
