Health Policy for Prostate Cancer Early Detection in the European Union and the Impact of Opportunistic Screening: PRAISE-U Consortium. J Pers Med 2024; 14:84. [PMID: 38248785 PMCID: PMC10819943 DOI: 10.3390/jpm14010084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
With the new policy recommendation in 2022 to explore the possibilities of screening for prostate cancer by the European Commission, the landscape for prostate cancer early detection is evolving. In line with this recommendation, the PRAISE-U project aims to evaluate the early detection and diagnosis of prostate cancer through customised and risk-based screening programmes, with the goal to align protocols across European Union member states. This systematic review is part of the PRAISE-U project, with the goal to review the policy, medical guideline recommendations, and the current level of opportunistic screening presented in the scientific literature on prostate cancer early detection from 2016 to 2023 in European Union member states. An extensive literature search was performed on 1 June 2023 in a large number of databases, including Embase.com, Medline (Ovid), Web of Science Core Collection, Google Scholar, and Policy Commons. We identified 318 articles (qualitative, quantitative, and reviews), of which 41 were included in the full-text screening. Seventeen articles were ultimately identified as eligible for inclusion. The included articles revealed significant variations towards PSA-based early detection policies for prostate cancer in nine European countries. Despite official recommendations, opportunistic screening was prevalent across all nine countries regardless of recommendations for or against PSA-based early detection. This systematic review suggests that the current early detection policies are not fit for purpose. High levels of opportunistic screening and overdiagnosis persist, prompting policy recommendations for standardised guidelines, informed decision making, and increased awareness to improve efficiency and effectiveness in early detection.

Rivas-Macho A, Romeo MV, Rackles E, Olabarria G, Falcon-Perez JM, Berganza-Granda J, Cortajarena AL, Goñi-de-Cerio F. Potential use of heat shock protein 90 as a biomarker for the diagnosis of human diseases. Expert Rev Mol Diagn 2023; 23:875-884. [PMID: 37577928 DOI: 10.1080/14737159.2023.2246883] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a protein involved in many different biological processes and especially in cell survival. Some of these functions require the participation of other biological molecules, so Hsp90 is a chaperone that takes part in many protein-protein interactions working as a critical signaling hub protein. As a member of the heat shock protein family, Hsp90 expression is regulated under certain environmental and/or stressful situations, therefore Hsp90 concentration can be monitored and linked to these effects. AREAS COVERED This review discusses the Hsp90 expression in samples from individuals affected by different diseases (from infectious to cancer origin), and the biological consequences of these disorders, including the potential use of Hsp90 as a biomarker for the diagnosis of human diseases. EXPERT OPINION The potential of Hsp90 as a biomarker disease has been demonstrated in several studies in relation to infectious diseases and especially cancer. However, further research in this field is still needed, mainly to validate in statistically significant clinical studies that the detection of Hsp90 protein allows the diagnosis of some cancers at an early stage and also that it can act as a biomarker for monitoring the efficacy of their therapies.

Onset and burden of lower limb lymphedema after radical prostatectomy: a cross-sectional study. Support Care Cancer 2021; 30:1303-1313. [PMID: 34477972 DOI: 10.1007/s00520-021-06520-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/25/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore men's onset and burden of lower limb lymphedema (LLL) after radical prostatectomy (RP) with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). PATIENTS AND METHODS A cross-sectional survey-based study was conducted nation-wide and web-based in Germany. Part 1 included 15 multidisciplinary compiled questions with three questions from the Short Form 12 Health Survey (SF-12) and the WHO activity recommendation and part 2 included the validated German Lymph-ICF-Questionnaire (Lymph-ICF-LL). Subgroup comparisons and simple regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with therapy and burden of LLL, followed by multiple regression analyses to explain variance in impairment in the patients' daily life. RESULTS Fifty-four patients completed the survey. Median time of LLL-onset was reported with 2.0 (0.5-9.75) months after RP. Nineteen patients (35.2%) reported bilateral lymphedema, 28 (51.9%) the use of individually fitted compression stockings (CS), 25 (46.3%) of manual lymphatic drainage (LD), and 26 (48.1%) complete regression. The Lymph-ICF-LL revealed a higher total burden for patients with an active LLL compared to complete regression (total score: 25.5 vs. 11.9, p = 0.01) especially for "physical function" (28.3 vs. 12.9, p < 0.01) and "mental function" (26.2 vs. 6.7, p < 0.01). In multiple linear regression analysis, a higher BMI (β = 0.28), lower subjective general health (β = -0.48), and active lymphedema (β = 0.28) were significant predictors of higher reported impairments in the Lymph-ICF-LL, accounting for 45.4% of variance. CONCLUSION Men with LLL after RP with PLND report a significant burden in daily life. Basic therapy needs to be offered early. Postoperative onset of LLL is variable, which should be considered when assessing complications after RP.
