Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance is associated with prostate cancer in a population-based cohort study
Abstract Register-based studies indicate a possible association of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and prostate cancer (PCa). Aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between MGUS and PCa considering potentially shared risk factors. Data from the prospec...
