Weight trajectories throughout adulthood and prostate cancer incidence, aggressiveness, and death in 258 494 men
The associations observed for incident PCa appear to be influenced by PSA testing uptake; however, the extent to which detection bias contributes remains uncertain. Conversely, late midlife weight gain was associated with an elevated risk of PCa death, underscoring the importance of weight management during this period as a potentially modifiable factor for reducing PCa death.
