Population-wide impacts of aspirin, statins, and metformin use on prostate cancer incidence and mortality

Abstract We evaluated the association between aspirin, statins, and metformin use and prostate cancer (PC) incidence and mortality using a large population-based dataset. 388,760 men who participated in national health screening program in Korea during 2002–2003 were observed from 2004 to 2013.
