Discussion

Restricted cubic spline analysis shows waist-to-height ratio affects mortality in prostate cancer patients, indicating implications for treatment.

MAIN FINDING: Adiposity status close to diagnosis is linked with prostate cancer survival outcomes.
KEY EVIDENCE: Analysis indicates waist-to-height ratio correlates with all-cause and prostate cancer-specific mortality.
APPROACH: Restricted cubic spline analysis was used to assess the relationship in UK Biobank participants.
SIGNIFICANCE: Understanding adiposity's role could shape future interventions and monitoring strategies in prostate cancer care.

Cariolou et al. (2025) studied this question.
