« Conclusions: The intake of fat and protein did not appear to influence PV risk—neither did meat or vegetable consumption. None of the dietary factors studied was associated with the risk of ET. The role of sugar intake in the etiology of PV in older individuals warrants further investigation.

Impact: Our results indicate that high sugar intake is associated with an increased risk of polycythemia vera. »
