description Coffee drinking has been inversely associated with liver cancer consistently in prospective studies. Yet, the specific compounds underlying this association, and whether associations vary by preparation method, are unknown. Associations with other sites within the gastrointestinal tract are also unclear. A recent study by Tran et al. leverages the resources of the UK Biobank to begin answering these questions, and suggests important avenues for future work.
