PROSTATE GREENLIGHT LASER TREATMENT

What is the Polypill?
Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses the Polypill. The Polypill is being developed in response to an important reality surrounding cardiovascular disease. There are three important drugs that can help prevent heart disease (statins, ACE inhibitors, and aspirin). These drugs are not taken for two major reasons. First, the drugs are simply too expensive for much of the world, including countries as developed as Russia. And secondly, in developed nations where the drugs are affordable patients too often fail to comply - after three years 70% of patients do not take the medications as prescribed.

JAMA - Men's Health Briefing
An estimated 10 million men 40 years or older have symptoms consistent with overactive bladder.
Now, new research shows a combination of two medicines which work differently works better than using only one medication.
The researchers compared using detrol la—which works on the bladder and flomax—which works on the prostate-- either alone or in combination in men with overactive bladder and a benign enlarged prostate and who complained of having to go to the bathroom a lot.
Dr. Steven Kaplan, the study author at Weill Cornell Medical College, says, “The particular symptoms that we actually are concerned about is getting up at night to urinate, going frequently to the bathroom. This is actually the largest study ever done in men who have both a bladder problem and a prostate problem and we found that by treating both we have enhanced the quality of life in men with urinating symptoms.” (Read more about JAMA - Men's Health Briefing)

PROSTATE CANCER AND OSTEOPOROSIS
Two new studies highlight the risk men with prostate cancer face concerning osteoporosis risk. Both show that hormone treatment for cancer can up the chances of developing the bone brittling disease.
One study in Wednesday’s New England Journal of Medicine confirms that hormonal therapy for prostate cancer increases the risk of fracture. The other, in Friday’s issue of cancer, shows that the problem of osteoporosis is often overlooked as a risk for men with prostate cancer and being treated with hormones.

TESTICULAR CANCER
They are two news broadcasters with a common bond: Sean Kimmerling, the WB 11 sportscaster in New York; and Dan Abrams of NBC.
Dan says, “No one expects to hear the words ‘You have cancer.’ I think it’s even more unexpected for people who are young and healthy.”
Both developed testicular cancer. But they differ in one very significant way. “Sean Kimmerling was a month younger than me, in the same business as me and was in the same hospital as me with the same disease as me. He died and I didn’t,” says Dan. (Read more about TESTICULAR CANCER)

PSA TEST INADEQUACY
It’s the best screening test we have for prostate cancer, but the latest research shows it falls far short in acceptability. The PSA test has been used for over two decades now to guide treatment for prostate cancer, but how to use it remains blurry at best.
Doctors are not putting the PSA test out to pasture yet, but the latest data reaffirms what we’ve been seeing lately, that it’s not clear what an abnormal PSA value might be and it’s even fuzzier concerning how to address it. (Read more about PSA TEST INADEQUACY)
