A recent study has examined adult height in relation to cancer risk in a cohort of 23 million Korean adults. Taller stature was associated with higher risk of every cancer studied, except for oesophageal cancer. This association contributes to our understanding of cancer and may help aid in cancer risk prediction.
最近一项研究在 2300 万韩国成年人队列中研究了成人身高与癌症风险的关系。除了食管癌,较高的身材与所研究的每种癌症的风险增加有关。这种关联有助于我们了解癌症,并可能有助于癌症风险预测。
