Core Tip |
The current literature is conflicted on the association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and prostate cancer (PCa), although several studies have demonstrated that men with MetS or its individual components may have an increased risk of more aggressive disease and mortality as well as a poorer outcome after their treatment for PCa. These men may benefit from weight loss, physical activity, and the addition of medications like statins for preventing PCa and improving their outcomes after treatment. A majority of the existing evidence is retrospective or observational in nature, which underscores the need for more randomized controlled trials in the future.
