Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Sex steroid hormones are thought to contribute to the growth, differentiation, and progression of prostate cancer. We investigated plasma levels of sex steroid hormones and length of the androgen receptor gene CAG repeat in relation to incident prostate cancer diagnosed in the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) era. METHODS: Using a nested case-control design, we included 460 prostate cancer cases...
