Prostate cancer found in half of men over 60 at time of death
Report an error
Half of men over the age of 60 who were studied posthumously were found to have prostate cancer even though they died of other causes, a new study out of Mount Sinai Hospital shows.
The study shows that a large proportion of prostate cancer tumours are in fact not life-threatening, Dr. Alexandre Zlotta said Friday.
Results show there should be an improved screening method which would detect the disease based on clinical significance and level of aggressiveness instead of screening for all forms of this cancer.
The findings also say the common use of prostate-specific antigen testing for the disease increases the risk of detecting low-risk prostate cancers and leads to unnecessary treatments.
?In North America, men with clinically significant prostate cancer are offered radical treatment usually in the form of surgery or radiation and there are heavy personal tolls to these treatments,? Zlotta said. ?But our study shows that in Japan, despite completely different lifestyles, despite a much lower incidence of clinically detected prostate cancer, and a much lower mortality rate due to prostate cancer compared to men in North America, Asian men have similar prevalence of the disease, but they aren?t dying from it.?
Caucasian men in Russia, who share the same characteristics as men in North America, such as a high-fat diet and reduced sun exposure, were used in the study.
The study also researched Asian men in Japan, who generally have a lower death rate from prostate cancer than men in North America as they eat healthier diets.
By studying two different populations, the research showed that the differences in incidence and mortality rates, and in genetics and lifestyle factors, the likelihood of prostate cancer was similar in both Caucasian and Asian men.
The prostate cancer in Asian men was actually more aggressive but they actually died from other factors.
The medical community needs to reexamine the definitions of ?clinically unimportant? and ?clinically significant? prostate cancer, Zlotta said.
?The study emphasizes the importance of understanding how many men in North America over a certain age harbour the latent form of prostate cancer, as this population is often over-diagnosed and over-treated, potentially leading to major side effects that affect lifestyle and personal well-being,? he said.

Rob Ford supports tax increase to fund Scarborough subway
Report an error
Mayor Rob Ford thinks Toronto residents are ready to pay more taxes, taxes, taxes to fund subways, subways, subways ? or at least the Scarborough subway extension.
Toronto?s tax-phobic mayor committed Friday to supporting a tax increase to make good on his campaign promise to build a subway to Scarborough provided the provincial and federal governments also agree to open their wallets.
?I?ve been very clear on my position on subways since Day One, I support the people of Scarborough and the people of Scarborough want subways,? Ford said at an afternoon press conference at the Etobicoke Civic Centre.
?I am pleased with the province?s willingness to amend the master agreement and help build a Scarborough subway.?
Ford?s comments came as the city manager?s report on Scarborough rapid transit outlined the choice for council next week ? either accept the fully-funded Scarborough LRT as the Scarborough RT replacement or push ahead with extending the Bloor-Danforth line by agreeing to fund the difference through a tax hike, development charges and begging the federal government for funding.
?We all know new subways come with a price,? Ford said.
But he stopped short of endorsing a 1.1% to 2.4% tax hike over three years to fund the added cost.
?I?ve told the city manager I can support a minimum ? minimum ? minimum tax increase of 0.25% starting in 2015 to build these subways.
?Folks, as you know I?m the last, last person to ever push for any tax increase but I call this an investment. I?ve been fighting hard since I was elected in 2000 ... to keep taxes low as possible but I also know that this investment is the beginning of great things to happen out in Scarborough.?
He said the hike would only work out to $5 a household.
?There is not one person in Scarborough that said they?re not willing to pay $5 a household to build subways ? that?s what it comes down to ... that?s our share,? Ford said.
Any further tax hike was too much, Ford argued.
?The people obviously can?t afford it,? he said.
Ford said he will be meeting with federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty on Saturday and Ontario Transportation Minister Glen Murray on Monday morning ? ahead of the council meeting set to start Tuesday.
Ford said the feds ?have to come to the table? with ?millions? and stressed the province needs to provide the $1.8 billion it had slated for the Scarborough LRT and ?not a dime less.
?I need the province to stay to the $1.8 billion or the deal is dead,? he said. ?I?m not here to play games.?
Would you support a tax increase to fund a Scarborough subway extension?
