important as ever to provide a basis for clinical counselling and screening …

BACKGROUND Familial risks by proband status and age are useful for clinical counseling,
and they can be used to calculate population‐attributable fractions (PAFs), which show the …

OBJECTIVE To identify published studies quantifying familial prostate cancer risks in
relatives of prostate cancer cases and, by meta‐analysis, obtain more precise estimates of …

BACKGROUND A positive family history is one of the strongest known risk factors for
prostate carcinoma in addition to age and race. In this article, the authors present age …

A family history of prostate cancer has been associated with prostate cancer risk in most
prior studies, and more limited data suggest that a family history of breast cancer may also …
