Abstract
Though the global incidence of stomach cancer (also named gastric cancer, GC) has been reduced steadily in recent decades and it is one of the most serious health problems facing Iran. The statics show that it is the second prime reason of death in Iran, so its prevention is one of the most significant aspects of the cancer control strategy, both in Iran and across the world. The specific factors contribute to the decline is in GC is uncertain, taking in account of regional disparities, racial traits, tendency of cancer incidence with time and food preservation techniques, economic-social status and so on. But GC is closely linked with some quantifiable elements, such as diet and the continual perfection of the role of nutrition and increased access of fresh fruits and vegetables. This paper aims to summarize the on-going clinical trials, future directions and some preventions of GC. And also appraise the current evidence surrounding relationship between risk factors of GC and Iran diet in terms of micro-nutrients and salt intake, smoking as well as helicobacter pylori infection.
