中文摘要
前列腺癌(CaP)是全球导致男性死亡的主要癌症之一。统计数据显示,2022年全球约有397,430名男性因该疾病失去生命。研究进一步证实,CaP在黑人男性中往往更具侵袭性,且伴随就诊较晚,使其成为该群体的主要死因。鉴于这一现实,加强倡导和意识提升工作变得至关重要。非洲行为研究(ABeR)中心为CaP倡导设立了三个渠道,以提高意识、知识和筛查参与度。第一项举措是CaP倡导培训项目,该项目采用梅奥诊所倡导培训手册进行。该培训专门旨在使男性——尤其是CaP生存者——掌握CaP倡导技能。来自西非各地的七(7)名CaP生存者接受了倡导科学方面的培训。此后,他们获得了试点资助,在各自社区内实施CaP意识提升项目。第二项举措是在三百二十二(322)名男性中开发并验证一段CaP意识提升视频。该视频被翻译成四(4)种尼日利亚本土语言。第三项举措是创建一个平台,向40岁及以上男性宣教CaP的体征、症状和定期筛查(营养处方,Nutrition Rx)。CaP生存者试点项目的结果显示,其中三名生存者共覆盖了420名男性,一百七十(170)名男性接受了CaP筛查。经过验证的CaP意识提升视频显示参与者的CaP知识显著提高(P=0.0001)( https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mE857ZHr7dUA97vtvmEmwxgzdQhnj3Ey/view?usp=sharing )。翻译后的视频已被部署用于阿贝奥库塔联邦医疗中心泌尿外科门诊。Nutrition Rx项目已成功覆盖尼日利亚和西非超过2000名男性。该平台被用于分发健康食品,并向男性宣教前列腺健康。该中心的倡导举措已被证明能有效提高CaP知识并提升人们对筛查以早期发现的重要性的认识。

Prostate cancer (CaP) stands among the leading cancers responsible for male mortality worldwide. Statistics reveal that approximately 397,430 men across the globe have lost their lives to this disease in 2022. Research further confirms that CaP tends to be more aggressive in Black men coupled with late presentation, making it a major cause of death within this group. With this reality, it becomes paramount that advocacy and awareness efforts be intensified. The African Behavioural Research (ABeR) center set up three channels for CaP advocacy in order to increase awareness, knowledge and screening uptake. The first initiative was the CaP advocacy training program which was conducted using the Mayo Clinic Advocacy Training Manual. The training was specifically designed to equip men especially CaP survivors with skills for CaP advocacy. Seven (7) CaP survivors from across West Africa received training in the science of advocacy. Following this, they were supported with pilot grants to implement CaP awareness projects within their respective communities. The second initiative was the development and validation of a CaP awareness video among three hundred and twenty-two (322) men. This was translated into four (4) indigenous Nigerian languages. The third initiative was the creation of a platform to educate men aged 40years and above on the signs, symptoms, regular screening CaP (Nutrition Rx)Results from the CaP survivors pilot projects showed that 420 men were reached by three of the survivors and one hundred and seventy (170) men were screened for CaP. The CaP awareness video after validation, showed a significant increase in CaP knowledge (P=0.0001) among the participants( https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mE857ZHr7dUA97vtvmEmwxgzdQhnj3Ey/view?usp=sharing ). The translated video have been deployed for use at the urology clinic of the Federal Medical Center Abeokuta. The Nutrition Rx program has successfully reached over 2000 men across Nigeria and West Africa. The platform has been used to distribute healthy food items and also to educate men on prostate health. The advocacy initiatives by the center has proven to be effective in improving CaP knowledge and raise awareness on the importance of screen for early detection.
