Evaluating the Impact of Age on Prostate Cancer Overdiagnosis Using Long‐Term Follow‐Up From the CAP Randomised Trial

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Uncertainty persists over whether the benefits of prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) screening outweigh harms from overdiagnosis, a key barrier to population‐wide adoption. Here, English male mortality rates were analyzed alongside long‐term data from the UK Cluster Randomized Trial of PSA Testing for Prostate Cancer (CAP) to estimate age‐specific ...

Artificial Intelligence in Colonoscopy Surveillance for Lynch Syndrome: Emerging Evidence, Lessons Learned From Average‐Risk Populations, and Future Directions

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) syndrome and is characterized by an accelerated adenoma‐carcinoma sequence, a relatively higher prevalence of flat and subtle CRC precursor lesions, and exceptionally high adenoma miss rates despite intensive colonoscopy surveillance.
