概括
60岁前列腺特异性抗原 (PSA) 水平预测了一生中致命的前列腺癌风险. 60岁时PSA低于1-2ng/ml的男性的风险较低,可能不需要进一步查.
科学领域:

- 预防医学 预防医学
背景情况:
- 研究了60岁前列腺特异性抗原 (PSA) 与致命前列腺癌的终身风险之间的长期关系.
- 研究了无百分比PSA对低PSA水平的男性风险分层的有用性.
- 在马尔默预防项目中使用了从未查的队列中获取的数据,在马尔默预防项目中追踪了40年.
研究的目的:
- 确定PSA在60岁时的预测值,以确定致命前列腺癌的终身风险.
- 评估百分比自由的PSA是否可以改善低PSA水平的男性的风险分层.
- 根据基线PSA水平,为前列腺癌的查指南提供信息.
主要方法:
- 分析了1162名基线年龄为58-62岁的男性的数据,到2020年12月31日记录了1151例死亡.
- 在130名前列腺癌患者和517名没有前列腺癌患者中测量了总和自由PSA.
- 根据基线PSA计算洛伦茨曲线来评估由于前列腺癌而丧失的生命年数.
主要成果:
- 60岁时的PSA总量是终身致命前列腺癌风险的强有力的预测指标 (C指数=0.87).
- 超过一半的前列腺癌死亡发生在60岁时PSA>4.0 ng/ml的男性中;PSA>2.0 ng/ml和>1.0 ng/ml的男性也有显著比例.
- 无百分比的PSA并没有提高PSA水平较低的男性的风险分层.
结论:
- 60岁时PSA<1-2ng/ml的男性患致命前列腺癌的风险较低,可能不需要进一步查.
- 在60岁时PSA<2ng/ml的男性中,无百分比PSA对于指导查决策并不有用.
- 60岁时的PSA基线水平对于评估长期致命前列腺癌风险至关重要.

Men's health issues are increasingly recognized as significant, with several conditions posing common threats. Among these, testicular cancer is especially prevalent in younger men, particularly those aged 20 to 35 years. The disease often manifests as a painless mass in the testicles, sometimes accompanied by a sensation of heaviness or a dull ache.

Menopause
3.5K
Menopause, a natural biological process marking the end of a woman's fertility, typically occurs between the fifth and sixth decade of life. This phase is characterized by the exhaustion of the ovarian follicle pool, leading to less responsive ovaries despite the high levels of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH). The consequential decrease in estrogen production results in symptoms like hot flashes, heavy sweating, headaches, hair loss, muscle pains, vaginal...

Longitudinal Research
13.1K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Cancer Survival Analysis
650
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...
