Recently, China News Network's "Medical Line Observation" series of video interviews on "Scientific Prevention of Cancer with Early Action" invited Zhang Qian, chief physician of the Department of Urology of Peking University First Hospital and president of Peking University Binhai Hospital, to interpret the prevention and treatment of prostate cancer.
In recent years, with the aging process, the incidence of prostate cancer in my country has increased rapidly.
Who needs to be extra careful with prostate cancer?
Zhang Qian believes that from the regional observation, the incidence of prostate is related to living habits.
The incidence of prostate cancer is higher in European and American countries. In Asian countries, the incidence of prostate cancer in Japan is not too high. A high-fat diet may increase the incidence of prostate cancer. "For example, the incidence of prostate cancer in coastal cities in our country is not high. On the one hand, this is related to the diet structure, on the other hand, people in these areas are more aware of their health and have a high penetration rate of medical examinations.”
Zhang Qian said that increasing age is an important risk factor for prostate cancer, and at the same time, prostate cancer is also closely related to genetic factors.
