Clinical biomarker-based biological aging and risk of cancer in the UK Biobank
A largely Swedish study using UK data [1]. The only thing that experts agree on concerning the causes of PCA, is that risk increases with chronicological age. The new study used three different calculations of "biological" age, expecting to get a better age measure for the risk of various cancers.

Thank you to everyone who advised me on the side effects of taking Metformin. My husband had none of the usual ones, but it has completely taken away his appetite. I know it is good to lose weight, but surely he needs to eat a certain amount. We both find a diabetic diet mostly tasteless, and do not

Semaglutide et al
I have never been obese (BMI >=30) but I have certainly been overweight (BMI>=25). There are many PCa papers associating "obesity" with poor survival. BMI is a surrogate for visceral adiposity (not always very accurate). Mortality risk with a BMI of 29 is presumably not much different than for a BMI

I’m 55 (almost 56), female and was diagnosed with NAFLD with cirrhosis in 2021 ( possibly 2020 as a letter went missing). Every day since then I am so worried and constantly think about death.
