[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS OgPR0xaM. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. A population-based case-control study of physical activity and prostate cancer risk was conducted in Alberta, Canada, between 1997 and 2000. A total of 988 incident, histologically confirmed cases of stage T2 or greater prostate cancer were frequency matched to 1,063 population controls. The Lifetime Total Physical Activity Questionnaire was used to measure occupational, household, and recreational activity levels from childhood until diagnosis. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted. No association for total lifetime physical activity and prostate cancer risk was found (odds ratio (OR) for>=203 vs.6 metabolic equivalents), vigorous activity decreased prostate cancer risk (OR=0.70,95% Cl : 0.54,0.92). This study provides inconsistent evidence for the association between physical activity and prostate cancer risk.
