While the 5-year survival rate for local and regional prostate cancer is nearly 100%, it decreases dramatically for advanced tumours. Accessibility to health care is an important factor for cancer prognosis. The U.S. Military Health System (MHS) provides

fistula occurred.Conclusions The long-term efficacy of brachytherapy in early stage prostate cancer is definite with few complications.With a mean followup of 7 years,the bNED rate was 72% and the overall survival rate was 90%.Key words:Prostate neoplasms; Brachytherapy; Efficacy; Follow-up ...
There are iterations of the TNM staging system, such as the Condensed TNM and Essential TNM, used by cancer registries in the absence of any or all TNM data elements [7]. Another approach to staging cancer uses categories of localised, regional, or distant spread. An example of this is ...
To examine biochemical progression-free survival (PFS) rates as a function of preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in patients with clinical Stage T1c prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy. Controversy exists about whether performing prostate biopsies for PSA levels in the 2.6 to ...

For early-stage breast and stage 1–3 prostate cancers, the mortality rate ratio is close to zero (relative to the baseline case of stage 4). Of the independent variables, stage and age have the greatest influence. Women have 14% higher excess mortality for color- ectal cancer and 13% ...
Several studies have shown adherence to guidelines for early stage BC diverged between countries7 and tumour characteristics; triple negative breast cancer7,8 and hormone receptors-negative HER2 positive9 being the subgroups with lower adherence. Older women are more likely to receive non-guideline adh...
