A polygenic risk score significantly improved prostate cancer detection beyond PSA testing, identifying more treatable and aggressive cancers in high-risk men. New WHO guidelines aim to reduce global meningitis deaths by standardizing early diagnosis, treatment, and care across settings. GLP-1 receptor agonists and SGLT2 inhibitors were linked to reduced Alzheimer's risk, with GLP-1s showing the most consistent neuroprotective effects in recent studies. Lastly, breast cancer mortality was 47% higher among Black women living in disadvantaged neighborhoods, underscoring the impact of social determinants on survival.

Guidelines for breast cancer screening have been gradually shifting, and urologists say prostate cancer screening guidelines also need to be updated. Our house doctor, Mike Simon speaks with host Steven Webb about the importance of early screening for prostate cancer.

Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men, behind only skin cancer. In recent years, advances in screening, surgery and radiation treatment have improved outcomes and led to an increase in what is known as active surveillance after the initial diagnosis of prostate cancer. “The goal of active surveillance is to maximize the quality of life for patients while at the same time preserving the quantity of life,” said Akshay Sood, MD, a James urologic oncologist who specializes in treating prostate and bladder cancer. Dr. Sood explained the importance of screening, the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test and what it means, the Gleason score and how these numbers help oncologists determine when to treat patients. He also discussed what's involved in prostate-cancer surgery and radiation treatments, and advances in both of these areas. Dr. Sood is also one of the leaders of the James Multidisciplinary Prostate Cancer Clinic and he described the benefits to patients of this all-in-one clinic that includes a large team of prostate cancer experts. “Unfortunately, there are no symptoms, which is why screening is so important,” Dr. Sood said of prostate cancer. PSA screening should begin at the age of 45 for most men. African American men (who have a higher rate of prostate cancer) and those with a family history of prostate and other types of cancers should begin their yearly PSA screenings at 40. “A PSA level below 4 is considered normal, while a score above 4 is abnormal,” Dr. Sood said. A high score will often lead to a biopsy to determine of the patient has cancer and, if they do, where it ranks on the Gleason scale and the genetic mutation causing the cancer.

Welcome to the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker. To DRE or not to DRE? This is the question and the main event in this episode. We have a fantastic interview with Amy Rylance, Head of Improving Care at Prostate Cancer UK, and Sam Merriel, GP and academic clinical lecturer, discussing their recent Clinical Practice paper in the BJGP: Is the digital rectal exam any good as a prostate cancer screening test? In other research, we have two papers with a common theme. Firstly, a paper in the BMJ looking at long-term outcomes after diagnosis with atrial fibrillation, and secondly, a paper in the BJGP examining the role of BNP testing as a marker for future cardiovascular disease in patients with a new diagnosis of hypertension. Both show that while these conditions make us think of stroke and MI, we also should be thinking about heart failure.

The questions answered in this podcast are listed below.They were compiled by GPs and health professionals around Australia.1. My patient was told by a doctor that duodart may cause cancer - thoughts? 2. What's the utility of PSA in the monitoring for relapse of metastatic prostate cancer where treatment had been deemed successful at suppressing growth, but prostatectomy had not been performed? I know this is not a screening question as such, but it sounds like to me the oncology team is using PSA as a "screening" test for relapse in this patient in this context since he is not on active treatment?3. How important is “above the mean” but < 3 PSA level mean?4. What about rate of rise of PSA? Link with prostate cancer?5. Are we routinely check PSA for men >50 year old every 2 years in general practice?6. Will you do random sampling via transperineal biopsy for patients who are MRI contraindicated? Or is there another imaging modality e.g. PET scan7. Healthy man of 70 year old, should or should not he have PSA testing?8. Is a PSA level of 3 used as cut off across age groups? 9. People with family history - How do you screen? I learnt a few years ago  0.35 rise per year is acceptable more than that need to be investigated. What are the guidelines with or without family history to screen for prostate cancer? 10. Is the upper age limit for PSA likely to change given that men are living longer?11. How many patients on active surveillance actually develop metastatic prostate cancer and missed the chance of curative treatment?12. If PSA is >6, will the patient get Medicare rebate for repeating the PSA 1-3 months later? I was under impression PSA Medicare rebate is only available once every 12 months13. What management or follow up is recommended for men with PSA within the normal range but above the median for their age group?14. Why was the transrectal biopsy ever done instead of trans perineal from the get-go? Is it technically easier?15. What MRI is recommended for detecting prostate cancer? 16. How far are we to use AI for reporting MRI prostate?17. Why we don't do MRI screening rather PSA18. For patient with PSA > 3.0, if repeat test after 1-3 months showed PSA < 3.0, do we repeat screening again in 2 years, or earlier?19. What are some comments you might have about risk mitigation in the diagnosis of prostate cancer?

Thank you for joining us, today we will be reviewing prostate cancer screening and potential benefits as well as any associated controversies. The main focus of our discussion today revolves around PSA, or prostate-specific antigen. Although  treating prostate cancer at an early stage to avoid long-term consequences, including potential metastatic disease, is important, we must acknowledge that our screening tools are imperfect. We don't want to diminish the importance of treating an aggressive prostate cancer, but simply want to highlight that screening should not be done without a thorough explanation between you and your patient.

On the 1st of November 2023, the Australian Government will release new guidelines for screening prostate cancer with the Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) blood test. These guidelines are based upon the Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) published in 2016 with new items to be included in the Medicare schedule. These items are based upon the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the Cancer Council of Australia guidelines that have been endorsed by the NHMRC, RACGP, and USANZ. We speak to Professor Ken Sikaris who has been at the forefront of these new recommendations. Our special guest is Professor Ken Sikaris who is a chemical pathologist and Director of Chemical Pathology at Melbourne Pathology.

Dr. Rana McKay discusses why it's crucial to get a prostate cancer screening.

Common themes for discussion on this podcast include overdiagnosis, approaches to the testing, the ins and outs of explanations, as well as other issues facing GPs who are overburdened, and have limited time and resources to treat patients. A topic which draws all of these themes together is prostate cancer screening. The BMJ recently published a feature which asked whether the UK is ready to roll out a nationwide prostate cancer screening programme, and the linked analysis paper, authored by Dr Andrew Vickers and colleagues, argued that the current model of screening, which determines testing by shared decision making, is the worst approach for detecting prostate cancer. We spoke to Andrew Vickers to discuss this further, and our second interview was with Dr Sam Merriel, regarding the emerging evidence that suggests that taking an MRI scan prior to biopsy could decrease harms associated with overdiagnosis and overtreatment of prostate cancer.   Our guests: Andrew Vickers is an attending research methodologist in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York. Sam Merriel is a GP, and a researcher on cancer diagnostic testing at the University of Exeter.   Further reading: ‘Is the UK really ready to roll out prostate cancer screening?'

In the first hour of "Connections with Evan Dawson" on Monday, April 17, 2023, guest host Eric Logan discusses the latest in prostate cancer screening, research and treatment.

A lot of people care about their health, but the fear of the unknown can sometimes stop them from being screened for cancer. One way to help is by holding free cancer screenings. Volunteers help put people at ease through education. Free cancer screenings also make the process more accessible to people who otherwise can't afford medical care.  Listen in to hear me discuss a recent prostate cancer screening event I participated in where over one hundred people got screened.    What You'll Learn: Dr. Rosalyn describes the importance of free cancer screenings. (1:30) Volunteers are essential to a successful free cancer screening event. (4:00) Some prostate cancer survivors volunteered. (5:45) The pandemic caused people to delay their cancer screenings.  (7:15)   "Free cancer screenings are so beneficial for people who don't have access to medical care." - Dr. Rosalyn Morrell "Cancer prevention is extremely important and cancer screenings are a big part of that." - Dr. Rosalyn   Resources: Rosalyn Morrell, MD: Website

In this episode, we discuss prostate cancer screening.  Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and yet screening for prostate cancer is considered quite controversial. Many sources state that prostate cancer is slow growing and that, as a result, prostate cancer screening is just not warranted. At the same time, prostate cancer takes the lives of about 34,000 American men every year. So what should guys do? Who should get screened? What does that even entail? Are there options as to how to get screened? Are there risks involved? To help us sort through these questions we turn to a true expert, Dr. Ganesh Palapattu is professor and chairman of the Department of Urology at the University of Michigan. Dr. Palapattu completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Texas at Austin and earned his medical degree from the Baylor College of Medicine. He underwent his residency training in urology at UCLA and then completed a fellowship in urologic oncology at Johns Hopkins.  After completing his training Dr. Palapattu held a faculty appointment at the University of Rochester School of Medicine, and then served as the chief of urologic oncology at the Methodist Hospital in Houston, Texas. In 2012, Dr. Palapattu was appointed associate professor and chief of urologic oncology at the University of Michigan, where he later became chair of the urology department.
