Available sources report that common COVID-19 vaccine side effects — sore arm, fatigue, fever, chills, headache and muscle aches — are usually brief, often resolving within 1–2 days after vaccination ...
Current public-health and peer-reviewed sources say most post‑COVID‑vaccine reactions are short lived — injection‑site pain, fatigue, fever and headache that usually resolve in days — and that serious...
Most available reporting and health‑system guidance says the 2025 COVID‑19 booster causes the same common, short‑lived reactions seen with prior boosters — sore arm, fatigue, headache, fever and muscl...
Available reporting suggests Manuka honey can interact with certain medications, especially when used together with antibiotics (often beneficially for topical infections) and — according to consumer-...
Clinical and major hospital sources consistently advise abstaining from sexual activity — including masturbation and use of sex toys — for roughly 4–6 weeks after penile implant surgery; Cleveland Cli...
A rising or “spike” in PSA after robotic (or any) radical prostatectomy can mean different things: persistent or recurrent prostate cancer, residual benign prostate tissue, or simply timing/measuremen...
Topical ivermectin in approved human formulations most commonly causes local skin effects — burning, stinging, itching, redness, dryness and irritation — reported at rates ≤1% in clinical trials and l...
Recovery guidance after penile implant surgery in the available materials converges on a cautious timeline: most centers advise avoiding sexual activity and heavy exertion for roughly 4–6 weeks (many ...
Early penile rehabilitation is commonly recommended after radical prostatectomy, but exact timing varies by modality and by clinician; many centers start oral PDE5 inhibitors at the time the catheter ...
Epidural steroid injections normally cause only short-term soreness and may produce pain relief that peaks in 1–2 weeks, with some people feeling benefit within days and others taking up to 10–14 days...
S&P 500 CEOs’ median total pay in 2023 was $16.3 million, up 12.6% from 2022 according to Equilar/AP data (reported by Fortune and Harvard’s Forum) . Available sources show large U.S. nonprofit CEOs g...
Clinical oncology investigations and case reports have used a wide range of ivermectin doses and schedules: from standard antiparasitic doses (150–400 µg/kg) cited in reviews to high, repeat oral regi...
PSA doubling time (PSADT) at very low PSA levels is intrinsically noisy: measurement error, biological fluctuation and divergent calculation methods can change estimated PSADT enough to affect clinica...
PSA doubling time (PSADT) measures how long it takes for prostate‑specific antigen (PSA) in the blood to double and is calculated by modeling PSA’s exponential rise over time; it is used after radical...
PSA velocity (PSAV) measures the linear rate of PSA change in ng/mL per year, while PSA doubling time (PSADT) measures the time required for PSA to double assuming exponential growth; both are used as...
Most available reporting and guidance say the common reactions within a week after a 2025 COVID-19 booster are short-lived, mild-to-moderate local and systemic symptoms such as injection‑site soreness...
PSA doubling time (PSADT) is usually calculated from serial PSA measurements by fitting an exponential growth model — commonly by taking the natural log of PSA values, deriving a slope by linear regre...
Nomograms are multivariable statistical tools that combine pathological and biochemical features—most commonly Gleason score, PSA level or PSA doubling time (PSADT), and surgical margin status—to gene...
The Pediatric Brain Tumor Consortium (PBTC) lost eligibility for renewed National Cancer Institute (NCI) funding beyond March 2026, prompting the NCI to halt new enrollments under the consortium and t...
A practical, evidence‑based men's Kegel program pairs targeted PC‑muscle identification with progressive training: short quick contractions, longer endurance holds, and gradual increases in hold time ...
