Background: Historical prostate-specific antigen (PSA)-based screening studies reduced prostate cancer-related deaths but also led to overdiagnosis/overtreatment. Since then, opportunistic PSA testing has increased, and late-stage diagnoses and prostate-cancer related deaths are rising.
Objectives: To review current trends regarding PSA testing in primary care and propose a collaborative approach to improve early prostate cancer detection.

Humans consistently land their first saccade to a face at a preferred fixation location (PFL). Humans also typically process faces as wholes, as evidenced by perceptual effects such as the composite face effect (CFE). However, not known is whether an individual's tendency to process faces as wholes varies with their gaze patterns on the face.
