Relationship between oxidative balance score and prostate cancer: a cross-sectional study of NHANES, 1999-2010.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Few studies have examined the relationship between systemic oxidative stress and prostate cancer (PCa) risk. This study aimed to explore potential correlations between PCa and oxidative balance score (OBS), which measures systemic oxidative stress.

Design

A cross-sectional study.

Setting

The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.

Participants

A total of 8156 individuals were included in this study.

Primary and secondary outcome measures

Weighted logistic regression with multivariable adjustment and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to assess the correlation between PCa and OBS. A sensitivity analysis was conducted specifically on patients with PCa to verify the results.

Results

The prevalence of PCa was 2.55%. The multi
