"Prostate cancer is typically diagnosed in older men, over 65 years or older—and many of them will have already been diagnosed with cardiovascular disease," says Jonusas. "It is therefore concerning that we found such a tremendous increase in the risk of cardiovascular disease-related death in...
Prostate cancer (PrCa) is the second most common cancer among men in the United States. The gold standard for detecting PrCa is the examination of prostate needle core biopsies. Diagnosis can be challenging, especially for small, well-differentiated cancers. Recently, machine learning algorithms have...
Men with prostate cancer are four times more likely to suffer a hip fracture and two times more likely to suffer any kind of fracture. The hip fracture risk rises to eight times in men aged 50-65. Prostate cancer is now a leading cause of male deaths in the US and Europe. The latest...
A microsatellite polymorphism (TTTTA)n in the promoter region of the CYP11A1 gene has been reported to be associated with an increased risk of metastatic and high-grade prostate cancer. In the present study of 110 prostate cancer patients and 96 population controls, we examined the association ...
Smokers have greater risk for recurrence of cancer. Prostate cancer patients who smoke have an increased risk of experiencing side effects and suffering from disease recurrence, the results of a recent study indicate. The study, published recently in BJU International, found that smoking may have a...
This evidence is the most definitive yet to show that prostate irradiation increases risk for rectal cancer (which probably begins to develop at about 5 years after irradiation). The level of increased risk is modest similar to that associated with a family history of colorectal cancer in ...
Genome-wide association studies of cancer have succeeded in identifying over 100 susceptibility loci, including some, such as those found at chromosome 8q24 and CPTM1L-TERT that influence the risk of several malignancies. As part of the ... MD Fesinmeyer,Y Lin,ML Biggs,... - 《Cancer Re...
The results of a systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that the mortality risk for colon cancer patients begins to increase with any avoidable delay in adjuvant chemotherapy beyond 4 weeks. The results of a systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that the mortality risk for colon ca...
The aim of this meta-analysis was to gather current data and evaluate not only the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) perforation with bevacizumab, but also the potential risk factors for this adverse event. We carried out a literature search in PubMed for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reporte...
