Decreases breast cancer incidence
LimitedEvidence strength: limited. Human evidence with several recorded weaknesses, or a design that tops out at limited.Finding“The pooled result showed that high selenium exposure decreased risk of breast cancer (pooled OR = 0.88; 95%CI: 0.84–0.93, Fig. 7), with no heterogeneity (Q = 20.83, P = 0.234; I 2 % = 18.4) and publication bias (Begger’s test z c = 1.74; P = 0.081; Egger’s test t = −1.21, P = 0.245).”
