it is important to note that we looked specifically at death, and not at quality of life. Certainly, biochemical recurrence could impact quality of life. Unfortunately, high-level data tracking this are lacking,

The number of men needed to treat to prevent one death is rather high in prostate cancer screening. How this affects the burden of treatment-related side-effects is unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the treatment related morbidity following radical prostatectomy in men participating ...
Poverty level and comorbidity were inversely associated with receiving aggressive therapy in univariate analysis. But after adjusting for other factors, these associations were no longer statistically significant. Patients with elevated PSA and high Gleason scores were less likely to receive radical ...
In the interim, however, the MTA study, by virtue of its size; scope; length; parallel group design; explicit use of manualized, evidence-based treatments; high degree of compliance across arms and over the course of the study; and comprehensive range of outcome assessments, sets an important...
The high content of fluoride in cold drinks damages the thyroid gland like no other beverage. Foods belonging to the brassica family such as broccoli, kale, cauliflower, and cabbage contain substances that may alter thyroid function. These foods, especially if eaten raw (salads), can cause T3 ...
Generally, PSA level should be o 0.5 ng ml − 1 after radiation therapy and o0.2 ng ml − 1 after a radical prostatectomy,2 and occurrence of two consecutive PSA level elevations is often considered biochemical recurrence or progression to stage D1.5 disease. Biochemical recurrence develops ...
HIV risk remains high in Cambodia among FESW. High numbers of sexual partners and non-injection ATS use are associated with elevated HIV risk and infection rates in this population [1,2,3]. Cambodia has achieved substantive progress in reducing the spread of HIV at a population level; the ...
