Men who avoid prostate cancer detection quotes face a much higher risk of disease

Researchers warn that men who regularly dodge prostate cancer detection appointments have 45% more likely to die from the disease.

Prostate cancer It is the most common cancer among men and the second cause of cancer deaths, according to UC San Francisco (UCSF).

But if the detection programs are introduced nationwide, particularly those that measure the specific prostate antigen levels (PSA) in the blood, could give men prior access to treatment, experts say.

Therefore, they would have a better opportunity to be cured, according to the reports of the SWNS and others news agency.

Detection can also prevent expensive treatments associated with advanced prostate cancer.

That is in accordance with the data of the European randomized study of prostate cancer (ERSPC).

The study collects information from seven European nations: Finland, Netherlands, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, Belgium and Spain. It is said to be the largest prostate cancer detection study, SWNS said.

The long -term data of this entity consistently show that PSA detection programs can lead to a reduced risk of 20% died due to prostate cancer.

‘Marked contrast’

Now, a 20 -year monitoring data analysis of the ERSPC is the first to see the link between the constant decline of Detection invitations and the risk of men to die of this type of cancer.

It reveals a “marked contrast” that emphasizes the possible consequences of the avoidance of detection.

Of the 72,460 invited men to participate in projections, around one in six were not assistants and each appointment skipped.

Researchers at the Erasmus Mc Cancer Institute at the University Medical Center of the Netherlands led the analysis, Swns said.

Of the 72,460 invited men to participate in the projections, around one in six they did not attend and jumped each appointment.

That group had a 45% higher risk of dying Prostate cancer Compared to those who attended the detection quotes, according to the findings.

When comparing the results with the control group, men who were never invited to have examination exams, those who attended detection quotes had a 23% lower risk of dying from prostate cancer, while the non -attendees faced a 39% higher risk, Swns reported.

The author of the main study, Renée Leenen, MD, Ph.D., said that the option of not participating in the detection can be promoted by a complex collection of factors.

Leenen, who is with the Erasmus CM Cancer Institute in the Netherlands, “may be that the men who chose not to attend a detection appointment are evaders of attention, which means that they are less likely to participate in healthy behaviors and preventive attention in general. “

Experts “need to better understand who these men are, why they choose not to attend appointments and how to motivate them.”

He added: “This is the opposite behavior of people who are perhaps more aware of health and are more likely to attend a detection appointment … Our study identifies that men who were invited to detect, but who do not attend detection appointments, have a significantly greater risk of dying of prostate cancer compared to men who were not offered a detection or accepted an invitation to detection.”

Dr. Leenen said that experts “need to better understand who these men are, why they choose not to attend appointments and how to motivate them.”

In doing so, he added, “it will help us design prostate cancer detection programs based on the population that foster high rates of informed participation … addressing assistance rates in this way could be an important factor in the long -term success of a national prostate detection program,” Swns said.

The Urologist Tobias Nordström, MD, Ph.D., of the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, said: “We need to better understand why these men could choose not to actively participate in detection, despite being invited to attend, and how this behavior is linked to the worst results when they get a diagnosis.”

The study findings are scheduled to present themselves this weekend at the Congress of the European Association of Urology (EAU) in Madrid, Spain, Swns said.

Siegel has emphasized the need to “diagnose it early to get better results.”
