Vplyv nadváhy a obezity na riziko vzniky rakoviny v českej populácii

Abstract

The article analyses the population’s attributable mortality risk on selected malignant neoplasms in 2016 that could be attributed to excessive BMI in the Czech population, taking into account the eight-year gap between exposure and cancer mortality by gender. In Czechia there were 1,902 deaths in 2016 (7% of all malignant neoplasm cases) diagnosed as due to one of the selected types of neoplasms as a result of a long-term high BMI.
