PROBLEM: Question: Does extended pattern prostate biopsy minimize the volume-grade bias in prostate cancer detection?
Answer: Although more high grade cancers are detected with extended pattern biopsy, there is no differential upgrading with respect to prostate volume. Based on these observations extended prostate sampling in trials of agents that decrease prostate volume would have minimal impact on volume-grade associations.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Question: Is quality of Life in Thyroid Cancer Similar to That of Other Cancers with Worse Survival?
Answer: We found the self-reported QOL of thyroid cancer survivors in our study population is overall similar to or worse than that of survivors of other types of cancer surveyed with the same instrument. This should heighten awareness of the significance of a thyroid cancer diagnosis and highlights the need for further research in how to improve care for this enlarging group of patients.

SOLUTION:
yes
