This paper describes the application of modern data analysis systems to prostate cancer research articles. The articles are studied as a group to address the questions: 1. What are the trends in diagnostic and treatment research? 2. Which organizations and individuals are engaged in prostate cancer research, and how has their participation varied over time? In this paper, the text analysis software Spatial Paradigm for Information Retrieval and Exploration (SPIRE[TM]) and general statistical software SAS [R] were used to address these questions.
