К недавно обсуждавшемуся вопросу о связи рака и ожирения
Из моей сегодняшней рассылки Medscape
In April 2016, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) reevaluated the impact of weight control through modifiable dietary and lifestyle risk factors on lowering cancer risk. (...)
Rather than saying that overweight and obesity increase the risk for cancer, the IARC has presented its findings another way: "the absence of excess body fatness reduces the risk of cancers."
The IARC confirmed its previous findings (published in 2002) for 5 cancers: colorectal, esophageal (adenocarcinoma), renal cell carcinoma, breast cancer in postmenopausal women, and uterine endometrial cancer.
Now, from a new evaluation of published scientific literature, the agency has added 8 more cancers to that list: stomach (gastric cardia), liver, gallbladder, pancreas, ovarian, thyroid, meningioma, and multiple myeloma.
There is also limited evidence suggesting a link for 3 other cancers: fatal cancer of the prostate, breast cancer in men, and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
