You have accessJournal of UrologyBenign Prostatic Hyperplasia: Epidemiology, Evaluation p=0.02] and high (OR 0.92 0.89-0.96; p=4.65E-05) IPAQ activity levels were associated with lower risk of BPH. Higher activity levels slightly moderated inherited genetic risk of BPH (PGS-BPH; Figure 1). CONCLUSIONS: In this large cohort study from the UK Biobank, higher levels of physical activity are associated with a decreased risk of BPH diagnosis, and higher activity levels appear to modestly influence the genetic predisposition for BPH.
