Body height and the excess cancer risk in men
International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 3, Page 597-607, 1 February 2026.What's new? In cancers that affect both sexes, men usually have a higher risk than women. While this is often attributed to behavioral factors, such as exposure to environmental carcinogens, there may be an intrinsic biological mechanism involved. Tall stature has been associated with increased cancer risk.

Inflammation and Cancer: Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targets
MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.Chronic inflammation fuels tumorigenesis via “internal drivers” and “external attractions.” Targeting these core mechanisms with combined therapies/novel deliveries enables precise, potent anti‐inflammatory–antitumor treatment. ABSTRACT Inflammation is a core pathological factor regulating tumor initiation, progression, and therapeutic resistance, and ...
