    Abstract The etiology of colorectal cancer (CRC) has been informed from both a molecular biology perspective, which concerns the study of the nature, timing, and consequences of mutations in driver genes, and epidemiology, which focuses on identifying risk factors for cancer. For the most part, these fields have developed independently, and it is thus important to consider them in a more integrated manner. The molecular mutational perspective has stressed the importance of mutations due to replication of adult stem cells, and the molecular fingerprint of most CRCs does not suggest the importance of direct carcinogens. Epidemiology has identified numerous modifiable risk factors that account for most CRCs, most of which are not direct mutagens. The distribution of CRCs across the large bowel is not uniform, which is possibly caused by regional differences in the microbiota. Some risk factors are likely to act through or interact with the microbiota. The mutational perspective informs when risk factors may begin to operate in life and when they may cease to operate. Evidence from the mutational model and epidemiology supports that CRC risk factors begin early in life and may contribute to the risk of early-onset CRC. Later in carcinogenesis, there may be a "point of no return" when sufficient mutations have accumulated, and some risk factors do not affect cancer risk. This period may be at least 5-15 years for some risk factors. A more precise knowledge of timing of risk factor to cancer is required to inform preventive efforts.

    Abstract The association between obesity and prostate cancer has been extensively studied, but clear answers have evaded us. Most of the studies have been based on a single time-point measure, most commonly of body mass index (BMI) during adulthood. Emerging data suggest a complex pattern that may be better understood through a life course approach. The data suggest that early life adiposity, possibly before or during puberty, as being associated with lower risk of advanced prostate cancer. In contrast, moderate weight gain in men who were initially lean during pre-adulthood or early adulthood may increase risk of advanced prostate cancer. This pattern suggests competing factors associated with overall adiposity, some protective and some adverse. Factors that may increase risk appear to show more strongly in men who maintain a relatively low BMI but have a high waist circumference or waist:hip ratio. Possibly, this pattern may be associated with relatively high levels of factors associated with insulin resistance and related metabolic abnormalities (mostly central adiposity) while avoiding the protective factors (mostly generalized or subcutaneous adiposity). Broad measures at one time-point, such as adult BMI, are not likely to contribute further to our understanding. Instead, direct measures of visceral fat might be useful. For feasibility, combined measures, such as examining waist:hip ratio among men with normal BMI in relation to risk, might be useful. It may be informative to better determine the precise point in early life when adiposity may be protective and through what mechanisms, such as delay in puberty.

    Abstract A recent study has examined adult height in relation to cancer risk in a cohort of 23 million Korean adults. Taller stature was associated with higher risk of every cancer studied, except for oesophageal cancer. This association contributes to our understanding of cancer and may help aid in cancer risk prediction.
