Статистический анализ медико-социальных причин формирования доброкачественной гиперплазии предстательной железы у мужчин.

Abstract

With the world’s population growing and aging, one of the challenges facing physicians and primary care professionals as the population ages is the management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It is known from the literature that 18% of men at the age of 40 report anxiety due to an enlarged prostate, but this figure rises sharply at the age of 50, when already 50% of men complain of unpleasant symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate, and at the age of 90 years of such men becomes 90%. In our study, we analyzed numerous works (articles) that studied the prevalence of benign prostatic hyperplasia in different population groups and at different times. In addition to analyzing the prevalence of benign prostatic hyperplasia, the article presents statistical data on the main causes of the formation of benign prostatic hyperplasia in men.
