Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Previous studies reported a positive association of body mass index (BMI) with microsatellite-stable (MSS) but not with microsatellite-instable (MSI-high) colorectal cancer. However, information from population-based studies conducted in representative age groups is so far limited. METHODS: We conducted a population-based case-control study (DACHS) in Southern Germany, including 1,215 patients with...
