PSA elevations from prostatitis are usually transient and clinicians commonly wait 4–8 weeks after treatment or symptom resolution before retesting PSA; guidelines and reviews recommend repeat testing...
Recent studies and guideline summaries show clinicians have routinely checked PSA 6–8 weeks (1.5–2 months) after radical prostatectomy, but new large analyses argue waiting at least three months reduc...
The claim that COVID-19 vaccines cause a new entity called “turbo cancer” is not supported by the bulk of scientific and public‑health reporting: major cancer organizations and multiple fact‑checks sa...
Major public-health bodies find little direct evidence that radiofrequency (RF) emissions from cell towers cause cancer in people; the FCC and American Cancer Society say there is “very little evidenc...
Available U.S. estimates place the lifetime probability of being diagnosed with invasive cancer at roughly 39% for women and 40% for men (about 38.9%–41% overall depending on the source and method) . ...
A sustained review of the literature and expert statements finds no credible evidence that the sound, infrasound, low-frequency noise, or electromagnetic fields () produced by modern wind turbines cau...
Available reporting and guidelines say mammograms are X‑ray exams used to detect breast cancer early and that screening has been linked to large reductions in breast‑cancer deaths; the U.S. Preventive...
The available reporting does not identify any carcinogenic material "inside" old analogue hydro meters; the debate in the sources centers on radiofrequency (RF) emissions from modern smart meters and ...
Recent large-cohort evidence and guideline summaries disagree about the ideal timing for the first definitive post‑prostatectomy PSA check: traditional practice often measures PSA at about 1.5–2 month...
After radical prostatectomy PSA usually falls to very low or undetectable levels within weeks to a few months; major guideline thresholds and recent studies disagree on exact cutoffs and timing. Sourc...
Congress played a mixed, active role in both blocking and enabling portions of the Trump administration’s proposed cuts to cancer and biomedical research: courts and Democratic-led House actions helpe...
Most clinical and patient-facing sources say PSA after radical prostatectomy typically falls to a very low or undetectable level within about 6–8 weeks to 2 months; common clinical thresholds discusse...
Cancer is ; many cancers detected early are effectively cured, while advanced or metastatic cancers remain largely incurable. Improvements in early detection, treatment, and survivorship have raised c...

Major public-health bodies and cancer institutes do not treat everyday exposure as a proven carcinogen: the placed radiofrequency in the “possible” carcinogen category in 2011, but agencies including ...
Direct answer: it is impossible to say "yes" or "no" without basic measurements and context — weight alone is not a reliable verdict. Public health tools like BMI use height and weight to screen for o...
The headline: (about 2.04 million new cases and ~618,120 deaths) broadly matches revised post‑pandemic projections produced by major surveillance groups, but it does not cleanly map onto pre‑2020 mode...
As of the reporting found, the only documented, actively recruiting human clinical research testing is a (listed on and by the ), while and remains untested in clinical oncology studies (ClinicalTrial...
