ConclusionAdiposity-mediated effects were limited in the link between dietary patterns and CRC incidence, implying that solely addressing adiposity may not sufficiently reduce CRC risk. Interventions, such as improving dietary quality in people with adiposity or promoting weight control in those with unhealthy eating habits, may provide an effective strategy to reduce CRC risk.

So, to address the gap identified in the practice of pregnant women, a hospital or community-based sensitization program can be conducted targeting young age, rural residents, illiterates, and non-healthcare professional groups on medication safety during pregnancy.
