• AA males have a higher incidence of PCa (168.8 per 100,000) compared to Caucasian males (95.每10万人中有3人)
• AA男性(12岁).3%) are 更有可能 to present with a clinically advanced stage/aggressive PCa (aPCa) at diagnosis when compared to non-Hispanic Caucasians (6.3%)和西班牙裔男性(10%).5%)
• Early screening for PCa improves chances for earlier stage diagnosis and reduces mortality but AA are less likely to have early screening performed

面积剥夺指数* (ADI)

A neighborhood with a high 面积剥夺指数 (ADI) is considered economically disadvantaged.

• AA Men living in an economically disadvantaged neighborhood were 更有可能 患aPCa
• Living in an economically disadvantaged neighborhood 可能会增加风险 of developing aPCa**

*ADI data collected through census track/Zipcode and not individual patient report

** - Hypothesis generated by our data that would need to be confirmed against the existing literature/validated in future studies

Medications: Thiazide and Thiazide-like Diuretics*#

• AA Men taking thiazide-like diuretics were 不太可能 患aPCa
• Use of thiazide-like diuretics may 保护 反对发展aPCa**

*- Medication data collected from individual patient report in medical record
#-Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics used to treat hypertension. E.g. 氢氯噻嗪. 有时被称为"水丸"
** - Hypothesis generated by our data that would need to be confirmed against the existing literature/validated in future studies

Medications: Angiotensin 2 Receptor Antagonist*#

• AA Men taking angiotensin 2 receptor antagonists were 不太可能 患aPCa
• Use of angiotensin 2 receptor antagonists 可以保护 反对发展aPCa**

*- Medication data collected from individual patient report in medical record
#- Angiotensin 2 receptor antagonist used to treat hypertension. E.g. 氯沙坦，缬沙坦，奥美沙坦
** - Hypothesis generated by our data that would need to be confirmed against the existing literature/validated in future studies

药物:直接血管扩张剂*#

• AA Men taking direct vasodilators were 更有可能 患aPCa
• 使用直接血管扩张剂 可能会增加风险 开发aPCa**

*- Medication data collected from individual patient report in medical record
#- Direct vasodilators used to treat hypertension. E.g. 肼苯哒嗪
** - Hypothesis generated by our data that would need to be confirmed against the existing literature/validated in future studies
