High PSA Not Always a Negative Outcome Predictor.The article reports that prostate cancer patients who have high prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels are not always a negative outcome predictor.EBSCO_AspRenal & Urology News
Approximately 70% of patients had middle socioeconomic status, 20% had high socioeconomic status, and 10% had low socioeconomic status. The PSA level in these two age groups was slightly different. The PSA level of “under 10 ng/mL” in the under 50 group was 73.73%, while that in ...

This rise in incidence is attributed to the widespread use of the prostate specific antigen (PSA) test in diagnosing PCa. However, this test is not specific and results in a high proportion of false positives as well as detection of indolent disease [2, 4]. This has led to over-treatment...
Fifth, all clinical centers followed the same screening and diagnosis protocol, with high rates of biopsy among those with an increased PSA level, and 10-core rather than sextant biopsy to improve prostate cancer detection. Sixth, compared with the ERSPC and PLCO trials, the CAP trial included ...
Site and Patient Recruitment, Randomization, and Follow-up in the CONNECT-HF Cluster Randomized Trial View LargeDownload Randomization occurred at the hospital level, and the effect of the intervention was measured in consented patients. AMA indicates against medical advice; HF, heart failure; LVAD,...
Meta-heuristic algorithms have a high position among academic researchers in various fields, such as science and engineering, in solving optimization problems. These algorithms can provide the most optimal solutions for optimization problems. This paper investigates a new meta-heuristic algorithm called Sl...
and national regulations support embarking on Indigenous certification. The feasibility indicates that the Mi’kmaq community is attempting to develop adequate abilities to adopt the identities of their social and cultural values toward empowering the communities in harnessing economic benefits on a communal...
A discontinuous contour indicates motifs that fold when bound to globular binding partners. Helicity values were derived from the main-chain chemical shifts by using δ2D (ref. 67). Green values are from an equivalent experiment carried out with the Tau-5* construct (ref. 23), which was ...
“Methods”). High genotype concordance confirmed a single paternity across the pedigree. In a known pedigree, de novo mutations can be identified as variant sites where an offspring carries an allele absent in both parents. However, offspring-parent genotype discordance can also arise via ...
