This week in JAMA's patient page - Prostate Cancer

Every week JAMA, the Journal of American Medical Association, provides a free article for health providers to give to their patients. (click on me and you can go to the article) The 2006 Nov. 15 issue of JAMA focuses on men's health (the editor in chief of this magazine joked that they could have had a press conference of this issue in a Hooter's restaurant). Since prostate cancer is a highly prevalent disease in the elder population, the patients' page this week provides a illustrative page with easily comprehensive figures so people can know the basic facts of this disease.
