PROSTATE CANCER
The results of studies relating to coffee consumption
and prostate cancer remain inconsistent, despite numerous
meta-analyses undertaken recently. A meta-analysis
of case-control studies in 2010 reported a harmful association
between coffee consumption and prostate cancer
risk, whereas cohort studies failed to confirm it [34].
The meta-analyses of cohort studies in 2014 and 2015,
which support the hypothesis that coffee consumption
may even decrease the risk of prostate cancer, provided
more optimistic conclusions [7, 26].
