Using brochures to educate the public about the early detection of prostate and colorectal cancer
1Cancer Screening Center, Deaconess Hospital in St. Louis, MO, USA.
Purpose:
To describe the development and the evaluation of two brochures intended to educate the public about prostate and colorectal cancer screening.
Data Sources:
Clinical experience and published books, articles, and brochures.
Data Synthesis:
Personnel at the Cancer Screening Center of the Deaconess Health System in St. Louis, MO, developed two brochures intended to educate the public about prostate cancer and colorectal cancer screening. These brochures focus on early detection (based on American Cancer Society guidelines), signs and symptoms, and risk factors related to prostate and colorectal cancer.
Conclusions:
These brochures can be used effectively to educate a large number of people about prostate and colorectal cancer. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSES: Oncology nurses may find these brochures to be an effective adjunct to existing resources used to educate the public about early detection of prostate and colorectal cancer.

When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
