A new study reveals that Mississippi has the highest prostate cancer mortality rate in the U.S. The research analyzed prostate cancer mortality data between...
Research published in JAMA Network Open from the University of California-San Francisco (UCSF) suggests that men with prostate cancer could significantly reduce the chances of the disease worsening by eating more nuts, olive oil, fruits, and vegetables.
Researchers at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center have developed a new urine-based test that addresses a major problem in prostate cancer: how to separate the slow-growing form of the disease unlikely to cause harm from more aggressive cancer that needs immediate treatment.
According to a study that was recently presented at the European Congress on Obesity in Dublin, Ireland, young men who gain a significant amount of weight at an early age are at an increased likelihood of developing prostate cancer. The researchers suggest that weight gain during a manu2019s teenage years and twenties increases the risk of developing lethal tumors later in life by nearly a third.u00a0
The nitrate ingested over the course of a person's adult lifetime through the consumption of tap water and bottled water could be a risk factor for prostate cancer, particularly in the case of aggressive tumours and in younger men. This is the conclusion of a study conducted in Spain and led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), a centre supported by the "la Caixa" Foundation. The findings have been published in Environmental Health Perspectives.
Men who consume colourful fruits and vegetables on a regular basis are less likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer (PC), according to new research by a group of University of South Australia scientists published in the journal Cancers.u00a0
New research shows that the Prostate Screening EpiSwitch (PSE) blood test is 94 percent accurate -- beating the currently used prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test.
The research team says that the new test shows significant potential as an accurate and rapid cancer screening diagnostic.
The test was developed by Oxford Biodynamics in collaboration with UEA, Imperial College London, and Imperial College NHS Trust.
According to the American Cancer Society, 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Prostate cancer is the 2nd most frequent malignancy in men around the world with 1 in 41 men dying from the disease. The exciting news is that physicians and scientists are starting to believe that prostate cancer may be preventable through simple, proactive, and healthful lifestyle changes.u00a0
Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer in males in Sweden. Researchers at Umeu00e5 University in Sweden have now discovered a faster and easier way to determine who has an aggressive form of cancer, and who has not. "This may have great implications on precision medicine when treating prostate cancer, and on more cancer groups alike," says Maru00e9ne Landstru00f6m, Professor of Pathology at Umeu00e5 University. The findings have been published in an article in EBioMedicine.
