Post by rua »

The National Institute for Digestive and Diabetes Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) is sponsoring a national clinical trial for men with chronic prostatitis.

The Chronic Prostatitis Collaborative Research Network (CPCRN) comprises six clinical centers: Harvard University School of Medicine/Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston; Temple University Hospital, Philadelphia; University of Maryland, Baltimore; Northwestern University, Chicago; Harbor-University of California, Los Angeles; and Kingston General Hospital at Queens University, Ontario, Canada. The data-coordinating center is at the University of Pennsylvania.
