Prostate cancer patient Dean Smith, left, a retired marketing executive, meets with Dr. Peter Carroll, right, at the UCSF Medical Center in San Francisco on Thursday, May 2, 2013. Carroll, chairman of urology at the University of California, San Francisco says a study he led on a new prostate cancer test - the Oncotype DX Genomic Prostate Score - suggested it could triple the number of men known to be at such low risk for aggressive disease that monitoring is a clearly safe option. Conversely, the test also suggested that some tumors were more aggressive than doctors had believed. (AP Photo/Eric Risberg)

Pregnant Syrian women say they never imagined giving birth outside their beloved homeland and inside a tough desert refugee camp across the border in Jordan where they battle heat, dust and to get enough drinking water. But doctors at the Zaatari camp boast of delivering more than a dozen of Syrian babies every day there. Among the births are at least two, sometimes up to five Caesarian sections, performed exclusively at the Moroccan field hospital, run by the North African state’s military. (AP Photo/Mohammad Hannon)
