Eight percent of American adults suffer from an embarrassing condition. They hide it in their shoes. Some of them can't hide it because its on their hands for the world to see. This condition is nail fungus. While toenail fungal infections are the most common type, fingernails can be affected, too. In any case, it's embarrassing to have to field questions about what's wrong with your nails. But, fortunately, the cure for this condition is quite simple, if a little tedious.

Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer deaths in American males. In 2010, approximately 217,730 patients are estimated to be diagnosed with this malignancy. An estimated 32,050 will die of this disease. There is much uncertainty about the benefits of screening for prostate cancer. This is because in some cases, this malignancy does not affect life expectancy. Another major consideration is the significant side effects that accompany treatments for this disease, such as incontinence and impotence. This past year, results were published from the federally-funded large PLCO (Prostate Lung Colorectal and Ovarian) Cancer Screening Trial. Screening for prostate cancer was not found to be associated with a reduced risk of dying from this disease. At the same time, a different conclusion was derived from a large clinical trial overseas from the European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (ERSPC) study. Screening there resulted in a 20% reduction in prostate cancer deaths. Different study designs may account for the opposite results. However, in the end, the uncertainty remains.Currently, the American Cancer...more
