The Orlando Sentinel Share to FacebookShare to Twitter (1/20, Jameson) reported, "Men are at higher risk of getting 32 out of 35 cancers, according to an international study, which further suggests that the greatest reason for the gap lies in biology." Researchers found that, "for 15 cancers, the risk for men is twice that for women." The study, published in the European Journal of Epidemiology, also found that "for five cancers -- larynx, hypopharynx, lip, bladder and Kaposi sarcoma -- men have a four-times greater risk."
