Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative effectiveness research in localized prostate cancer treatment.

TL;DR: Comparative effectiveness research, using observational cohorts, claims data and simulation models, enables comparisons of treatments that have not been studied in controlled trials and captures real-world outcomes data to better support informed decision-making.
Journal ArticleDOI

Randomized trial results did not resolve controversies surrounding prostate cancer screening.

TL;DR: The randomized trials suggest that screening at best will have a small survival benefit but substantial potential risk for overdiagnosis and overtreatment, and patients need to understand these tradeoffs in order to make informed decisions about screening.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal Article
