Smoking and prostate cancer survival and recurrence.

TL;DR: Smoking at the time of prostate cancer diagnosis is associated with increased overall and CVD mortality and prostate cancer-specific mortality and recurrence, and men who have quit for at least 10 years have prostate cancer mortality risks similar to those who have never smoked.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicted lean body mass, fat mass, and all cause and cause specific mortality in men: prospective US cohort study.

TL;DR: The shape of the association between BMI and mortality was determined by the relation between two body components (lean body mass and fat mass) and mortality, suggesting that the “obesity paradox” controversy may be largely explained by low lean body mass, rather than low fat mass, in the lower range of BMI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin, the Insulin-Like Growth Factor Axis, and Mortality in Patients With Nonmetastatic Colorectal Cancer

TL;DR: Among patients with surgically resected colorectal cancer, higher levels of prediagnosis plasma C-peptide and lower levels ofprediagnotic plasma IGFBP-1 were associated with increased mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Mediterranean and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diets and colorectal cancer
