We analyzed the prognostic significance of clinical stage using extent of disease (EOD) grading system in 288 patients with prostate cancer between 1970 and 1994. The cause-specific survival rate for EOD4 was significantly lower (p < 0.01) than that for the other EOD categories. On the other hand, the cause-specific survival rate for EOD1 was significantly higher (p < 0.01) than that of the other EOD categories, and moreover, it was similar to the cause-specific survival rates for stage C and D1. The cause-specific survival rate of EOD1 and poorly differentiated cases was higher than that of EOD2 or 3 and well or moderately differentiated cases until 2 years after treatment, but after 3 years, the cause-specific survival rate for EOD1 and poorly differentiated cases was lower than that for EOD2 or 3 and well or moderately differentiated cases. These findings suggest that the volume of cancer is associated with the prognosis of prostate cancer that failed in radical treatment and that in stage D2, histological grade is more closely associated with the prognosis after treatment for 3 years.

Total IgE levels are associated with mortality risk partially mediated by vitamin status: A nationally representative population-based study.

Background And Aims: Elevated total IgE levels are traditionally associated with allergic conditions; however, their potential role as biomarker for mortality risk beyond allergic diseases has not been extensively explored. Recent studies have suggested that IgE is associated with cardiovascular (CV) disease. We aimed to investigate the association between total IgE levels and the risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality, as well as to explore the potential mediating role of vitamin status in these associations.

Flooding greatly endangers public health and is an urgent concern as rapid population growth in flood-prone regions and more extreme weather events will increase the number of people at risk. However, an exhaustive analysis of mortality following floods has not been conducted. Here we used 35.

Association between lifestyle risk factors and mortality in the Mexico City prospective study.

Unhealthy lifestyles risk factors, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, poor diet, and obesity, have been associated with a higher risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality. However, composite score of these unhealthy behaviours has not been considered, particularly in Latin American populations. Herein, we examined the association of lifestyle risk factors score with all-cause and cause-specific mortality in Mexican adults.

Background: Previous studies on socio-economic inequalities in mortality have documented a substantial contribution of alcohol-attributable mortality (AAM) to these inequalities. However, little is known about the extent to which AAM has contributed to time trends in socio-economic inequalities in mortality.

Objective: To study long-term trends in educational inequalities in AAM and assessed their impact on trends in educational inequalities in life expectancy in three European countries.
