Relationship of self-reported body size and shape with risk for prostate cancer: A UK case-control study
Introduction Previous evidence has suggested a relationship between male self-reported body size and the risk of developing prostate cancer. In this UK-wide case-control study, we have explored the possible association of prostate cancer risk with male self-reported body size. We also investigated b...
