RISK FACTORS FOR DEVELOPING CLINICAL BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA: THE KRIMPEN STUDY (original) (raw)

2008, The Journal of Urology

AI-generated Abstract

The Krimpen Study investigates risk factors contributing to the development of clinical benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in a longitudinal cohort. An analysis of 414 patients revealed significant determinants including age, functional bladder capacity, prostate volume, residual volume, cardiac disease treatment, education level, and familial prostate cancer history. Despite identifying various risk factors, the study underscores the ongoing uncertainty in fully accounting for all potential contributors to BPH.
