    Most prostate cancers are adenocarcinomas, cancers that arise in glandular cells of the prostate’s epithelial tissue.

Hi, Here are some important Nail disorders: • Splinter hemorrhages are tiny, longitudinal streak hemorrhages under the nails caused by microemboli or trauma. They can be a normal finding in manual workers. • Pitting involves tiny indentations in the surface of the nail. It is a feature of psoriasis and less commonly eczema, lichen planus, and alopecia areata.  • Onycholysis is a premature lifting of the nail.  • Leukonychia is white discoloration of the nail. It is a sign of low albumin or chronic ill health.  • Beau’s lines are transverse depressions in the nail. They coincide with arrested nail growth during a period of acute illness.  • Paronychia is an infection of the skin adjacent to the nail, causing pain, swelling, redness, and tenderness.  • Koilonychi a is spooning (concave indentation) of the nail.

Keratoconjunctivitis sicca is the term used to describe dry eyes. This phenomenon can occur in isolation (primary Sjögren syndrome) or in association with many other rheumatological conditions.

Normally 10 mm or more of the paper will become wet. It is important to bear in mind, however, that normal tear production is reduced in old age. Also, drugs with anticholinergic properties, such as tricyclic antidepressants, reduce tear production and may result in a false-positive Schirmer test.
