Glad I'm short

Luisa Zuccolo et al. in the September issue of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention report that taller men are at greater risk of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer risk increased on average almost 1.5%/inch of height over the shortest person in the study. Course, the statistical support was "weak" and not as influential as other factors such as age, ethnicity, and family history, but I'll take what I can get.
