Description
Aykut Ozmen and co-authors present a study the catalog lists under 2026. They study prostate cancer that has spread but still responds to hormone care. Bone pain at first visit is common in such cases. The team asks whether that pain predicts how long scans stay clear of growth. Records cover 205 patients treated at one center.
The middle span without scan growth was about two years for the whole group. Patients with bone pain had a clearly shorter span in first checks. The team tested whether pain still matters after known risk factors are counted. A simple symptom that patients report on day one could help sort risk early. Doctors can plan scan timing and talks about outlook with that signal in hand. The study is a look back at one center, so wider checks would strengthen the claim.
