< 1/w: HR = 1.
1-2/w: HR = 0.99 (0.88-1.11).
≥ 3/w: HR = 0.91 (0.78-1.07).

| 7) Khan MM. (2004) | No cohort name. | 1,524 men and 1,634 women aged ≥ 40 living in Hokkaido, Japan. | 1984-2002 | 155 men, 89 women? | Total cancer mortality | Cheese (not defined) | Men: RR = 1.0 (0.7-1.7; No P-value).
Women: RR = 1.1 (0.6-2.2; No P-value).
