Abstract
Background Assessing genetic lifetime risk for prostate cancer has been proposed as a means of risk stratification to identify those for whom prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing is likely to be most valuable.

Methods and findings We performed a cluster randomized controlled trial with...
