  "textContent": "Shocking inequalities experienced by men with learning disabilities when diagnosed with prostate cancer have been highlighted in a study by University of Manchester and Christie NHS Foundation Trust researchers. Published in the journal European Urology Oncology, the study shows that men with learning disabilities are 35% more likely than similar aged men without learning disabilities to have prostate cancer symptoms but 34% less likely to have a diagnostic PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) test.",
