Prostate(前列腺)cancer death rates have leveled off recently after a period of decline. That may be because many doctors pulled back on using the controversial prostate-specific antigen test, or PSA, which can spot the disease but can lead to over-treatment of men who may never have died ...

Usually initiated by several somatic mutations and only about 5% of the cases are attributable to germline mutations. In the USA, annually, 1.6–2.5 million new cancer cases occur and the death rate is about 560,000/year. The worldwide cancer death rate is about 6.6 million/year. In men,...
