“…Several observations reported that the incidence of prostate cancer in Asian was lower than that in Western (Nakamura et al, 2011). However, the recent epidemiology studies also showed that, the incidence rates of prostate cancer increased in Asian countries in the last few years (Center et al, 2012) due to the change in diet and life style. A prospective study by Severson et al (1989) showed the increasing consumption of phytoestrogens in men of Japanese ancestry living in Hawaii was associated with the decreasing risk of prostate cancer.…”

“…Prostate cancer (PCa) accounted for an estimated 899 000 cases and 258 000 deaths worldwide in 2008, with 72% of cases and 53% of deaths occurring in developed countries [1]. Among men in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database in the United States, 80% had localized disease, 12% had regional disease, and only 4% had distant E U R O P E A N U R O L O G Y 6 4 ( 2 0 1 3 ) 9 0 5 -9 1 5 a v a i l a b l e a t w w w .…”

“…1 The reason for this is the high prevalence of "occult PCa" of 40%. 2 Importantly, PSA may temporarily be increased in the presence of benign prostate hypertrophy, prostatitis or other non-malignant conditions 3 which frequently leads to prostate biopsy in daily routine practice.…”
