    Summary

    This project identifies high-risk groups for prostate cancer and implements a mobile screening system. Early detection rates for benign prostatic hypertrophy and prostate cancer in men over 55 were 30% and 0.6%.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Preventive Medicine
    • Oncology

    Context:

    • Prostatic diseases pose a significant health burden.
    • Effective preventive strategies are crucial for public health.
    • Early detection improves patient outcomes.

    Purpose:

    • To implement a comprehensive preventive medicine project for prostatic diseases.
    • To identify high-risk groups for prostate cancer through case-control studies.
    • To develop and deploy an innovative mass screening system for early detection.

    Summary:

    • A case-control study identified high-risk groups for prostate cancer (primary prevention).
    • A mobile screening unit with transrectal ultrasound technology was developed for mass screening (secondary prevention).
    • Screening detected benign prostatic hypertrophy in approximately 30% and prostate cancer in 0.6% of males over 55.

    Impact:

    • Public dissemination of risk factors aims to reduce prostate cancer morbidity.
    • The mobile screening system facilitates widespread early detection of prostatic diseases.
    • This initiative enhances proactive healthcare management for aging male populations.
