Objectives:
Previous studies have provided limited evidence for the effect of carrot intake on bladder cancer incidence. Therefore, this review article has been conducted.

Is there a relationship between dietary carrot intake and bladder cancer incidence?

Study design:
This review article included 3 cohort studies.

Results and conclusions:
The investigators found in a meta-analyse of 3 cohort studies no significant association between dietary carrot intake and bladder cancer risk [summary HR = 1.02, 95% CI = 0.95 to 1.10, I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.859].

The investigators concluded that there is no association between dietary consumption of carrot and the risk of bladder cancer.
