This was because the evidence was limited,inconclusive or contradictory. These Grade D relationships were not used to inform the development of theAustralian <strong>Dietary</strong> <strong>Guidelines</strong>. Table E2 provides a list of the evidence statements for these relationships.Grade D evidence can inform health professionals about the strength of evidence from recent research, particularlyin emerging areas, and help identify areas where further research on dietary patterns and health outcomes maybe required. Grade D evidence can also assist health professionals correct diet related misconceptions among thegeneral population. <strong>For</strong> example, members of the general population may be inclined to alter their dietary patternswhen the results of a new study are widely publicised in the media.This evidence, while useful as mentioned above, was not used in the development of Guideline statements.Table E2: Evidence statements (Grade D) that did not inform the Australian <strong>Dietary</strong> <strong>Guidelines</strong>Evidence statementGradeVegetablesThe effect of total vegetable consumption on gastric (stomach) cancer is inconclusive (Evidence Report, Section 2.5).The effect of total vegetable consumption on the risk of breast cancer is inconclusive (Evidence Report, Section 2.6).The effect of total vegetable consumption on the risk of colorectal cancer is inconclusive (Evidence Report,Section 2.8).The effect of total vegetable consumption on the risk of lung cancer is inconclusive (Evidence Report, Section 2.7).DDDDAppendicesNational <strong>Health</strong> and Medical Research Council125
