Is DRE essential for the follow up of prostate cancer patients? A prospective audit of 194 patients

BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer follow up forms a substantial part of the urology outpatient workload. Nurse led prostate cancer follow up clinics are becoming more common. Routine follow-up may involve performing DRE, which may require training. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this audit was to assess the factors that influenced the change in the management of prostate cancer patients during follow up. This would allow us to pave the way towards a protocol driven follow up clinic led by nurse specialists without formal training in DRE. RESULTS: 194 prostate cancer patients were seen over a period of two months and all the patients had DRE performed on at least one occasion. The management was changed in 47 patients. The most common factor influencing this change was PSA trend. A change in DRE findings influenced advancement of the clinic visit in 2 patients. CONCLUSIONS: PSA is the most common factor influencing change in the management of these patients. Nurse specialists can run prostate cancer follow-up clinics in parallel to existing consultant clinics and reserve DRE only for those patients who have a PSA change or have onset of new symptoms. However larger studies are required involving all the subgroups of patients to identify the subgroups of patients who will require DRE routinely

Prognostic factors in prostate cancer

Prognostic factors in organ confined prostate cancer will reflect survival after surgical radical prostatectomy. Gleason score, tumour volume, surgical margins and Ki-67 index have the most significant prognosticators. Also the origins from the transitional zone, p53 status in cancer tissue, stage, and aneuploidy have shown prognostic significance. Progression-associated features include Gleason score, stage, and capsular invasion, but PSA is also highly significant. Progression can also be predicted with biological markers (E-cadherin, microvessel density, and aneuploidy) with high level of significance. Other prognostic features of clinical or PSA-associated progression include age, IGF-1, p27, and Ki-67. In patients who were treated with radiotherapy the survival was potentially predictable with age, race and p53, but available research on other markers is limited. The most significant published survival-associated prognosticators of prostate cancer with extension outside prostate are microvessel density and total blood PSA. However, survival can potentially be predicted by other markers like androgen receptor, and Ki-67-positive cell fraction. In advanced prostate cancer nuclear morphometry and Gleason score are the most highly significant progression-associated prognosticators. In conclusion, Gleason score, capsular invasion, blood PSA, stage, and aneuploidy are the best markers of progression in organ confined disease. Other biological markers are less important. In advanced disease Gleason score and nuclear morphometry can be used as predictors of progression. Compound prognostic factors based on combinations of single prognosticators, or on gene expression profiles (tested by DNA arrays) are promising, but clinically relevant data is still lacking

Potential of Lemna gibba L. and Lemna minor L. for accumulation of Boron from secondary effluents

Aquatic plants are quite effective in removal of pollutants which cannot be removed in secondary treatment. Lemna gibba L. and Lemna minor L. among the aquatic plants were investigated for the removal of boron from the secondary waste water. Differences in Boron uptake were seen in the chosen aquatic macrophytes. Although boron is at low concentration in water, the bioaccumulated concentrations in Lemna minor L. and Lemna gibba L. were at high levels of between 140 mg Bg 140 –1and 274 mgB g−1, and 381 mgB g−1 523 mgB g−1 respectively. From these results, it was understood that Lemna gibba L. is more prone to accumulate boron compared to Lemna minor L

Impacts Of Phosphoric Acid Hydrogen Peroxide Addition on Metals and Organic Content Of Sludge

In this study, the removal of heavy metals from sludge in a municipal treatment plant was investigated by using different volumes and concentrations of phosphoric acid, both with and without hydrogen peroxide. The level of inorganic and organic matter was firstly measured in the residual sludge cake. The most effective removal of heavy metals was obtained by a 40-ml treatment with H3PO4 in different concentrations for each corresponding metal, generally 35% H3PO4. The results indicate that there is a relationship between the removal of heavy metals and the solution pH. This study's test results show that treatment applications - both with and without H2O2 - did not change the organic matter value of the sludge cake

Antioxidant Response in Duckweed After Exposure to Secondary Effluent from Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Elazığ, Turkey

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the effluent of Elazig Municipality Wastewater Treatment Plant on the oxidative defense capacity of aquatic plants (Lemna minor L. and Lemna gibba L.). For this purpose, malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), oxidized glutathione (GSSG), vitamin A (retinol), vitamin E (α-tocopherol), and vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) levels were determined by the HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) in the control groups and the groups adapting to reactors fed with discharge water. The depletion of vitamins (A, E, and C), decrease of GSH/GSSG ratio, and increase of MDA that reflect a precarious state of the cell in L. minor L. and L. gibba L. were observed after exposure to wastewater. It can be suggested that the selected biomarkers are useful in understanding the biochemical mechanisms of the secondary effluents from wastewater treatment plant in L. minor L. and L. gibba L. as early warning indicators

Determination of Some Vitamins in Different Matrixes in a Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant

This paper presents various vitamin levels determined by using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) in the influent and effluent of municipal wastewater treatment plant and its some sludge fractions. A, E and C vitamin levels in the influent were found to be 0.11, 0.84 and 5.16 mg/l, respectively. The levels of A vitamin of the microorganisms in the aeration tank and the effluent were determined to be 0.39 mg/kg and 0.17 mg/l, respectively. E vitamin levels in the aeration tank and effluent were also determined to be 6.61 mg/kg and 1.32 mg/l, respectively. C vitamin levels in aeration tank and effluent were 15.7 mg/kg and 7.35 mg/l, respectively. A, E and C vitamin levels of the sludge cake in the dried beds were found to be 0.44 mg/kg, 20.95 mg/kg and 11.39 mg/kg, respectively. A, E and C vitamin levels in the sludge cake disposed for a long time were also assigned to be 0.09, 4.76 and 1.93 mg/kg
