The higher the growth in men, the greater is the likelihood that he of prostate cancer development. This is the result of the British researchers at the University of Bristol. The researchers analyzed 58 published studies that involved a total of more than nine thousand people - prostate cancer patients and healthy people. The study was published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention. It was found that with increasing growth males for every 10 centimeters risk of prostate cancer increases by 6%. With such men, whose growth was 30.5 inches higher than most stunted participants, the risk of prostate cancer increased by 19%, the researchers reported. After leader Louise Zukkolo study the relationship can be the impact of factors that affect both the growth and development of cancer. In particular, insulin-like growth factor-1 stimulates cell growth and at the same time can be a role in the onset and development of prostate play, and the skilled person. Zukkolo stressed that the incidence of prostate cancer in men growth is much smaller role than in the other known factors. Much more important are the known risk factors such as age, race and family history, she added.
