Challenges in epidemiologic studies of diet and prostate cancer
Changing spectrum of prostate cancer cases due to screening
for elevated Prostate Specific Antigen
Enrichment of cases with early disease
Misclassification of exposure
Assessment only in middle age
Variation in study quality
Future directions in epidemiologic studies of diet and prostate cancer
Tailor hypotheses that are testable using early stage disease
Use appropriate study populations
Select appropriate cases
Conduct analyses by type of case
Elucidate mechanisms

Summary
Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer worldwide
Strong evidence that greater body fatness (marked by BMI, waist-circumference, and
waist-hip ratio) is probably a cause of advanced prostate cancer
Strong evidence that developmental factors leading to greater linear growth (marked by
adult attained height) are probably a cause of prostate cancer
Limited evidence that diets high in calcium or higher consumption of dairy products
increases the risk of prostate cancer
More evidence needed on characterising mechanisms that underpin the association
between calcium and prostate cancer risk
A recent paper on dairy products, calcium, and prostate cancer risk by the Continuous
Update Project research team in the AJCN: doi: 10.3945/ ajcn.113.067157
