Surgery to address prostate cancer can have lasting negative effects in some men. Many prostate-cancer patients could delay or forgo radical treatment without compromising quality of life or longevity, a study showed, adding to a reconsideration of how aggressively to treat some common cancers. Men with low-grade and some with moderate-grade localized prostate cancer could safely choose surveillance over surgery or radiation, according to a study published on Saturday in the New England Journal of Medicine. Its authors followed about 1,600 men in the U.K. diagnosed with localized prostate cancer for a median of 15 years. They found that mortality was low whether patients received radiotherapy, a prostatectomy or active monitoring: 3% of patients in the study died from prostate cancer.

A re-creation of what the embalming process might have looked like around 664-525 B.C. in Saqqara, Egypt. Inscribed ceramic vessels left behind in an Egyptian subterranean embalming structure from the 26th Dynasty of ancient Egypt offer new clues as to how the dead were preserved, and the role trade played in the mummification process. Researchers for the first time analyzed the organic materials found inside 31 vessels used in the embalming process at the necropolis of Saqqara near Cairo, a burial ground for royals and people of high society. These vessels, which carried inscriptions on them, contained materials including animal fat, oils and resins that played a major role in preservation practices—and were obtained through long-distance exchange and routes from far away lands, according to researchers.
