Prostate cancer testing: No change in survival rates?

This is a sobering article.

Seems very counterintuitive, but I know nothing about prostate cancer treatments. If there is really no treatment, then early detection of this disease is merely buying you more worry time. One of 34 men will die of this disease. In my high school class of 270, about 8 will die of this disease.
