Are tall height and obesity associated with an increased risk of high-grade prostate cancer and prostate cancer death in men?
Tall height and greater adiposity are associated with an elevated risk of aggressive prostate cancer and prostate cancer death.
Does not yet support practice changes; extends observational data on height and adiposity as risk markers.
The findings from this large prospective study show that men who are taller and who have greater adiposity have an elevated risk of high-grade prostate cancer and prostate cancer death.
