FILELLA X, ALCOVER J, MOLINA R, RODRIGUEZ A, CARRETERO P, BALLESTA AM: Clinical evalua- tion of free PSA/total PSA (prostate-specific antigen) ratio in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Eur J Cancer 1997; 33: 1.226-1.229.Filella X, Alcover J, Molina R, Rodriguez A, Carretero P, ...
We investigated an optimal cutoff level of free/total PSA ratios (f/t PSA) in predicting prostate cancer in different age groups, focusing on the avoidance of unnecessary prostate biopsies. A total of 4955 men were enrolled into the study. Serum tPSA, fPSA, and f/t PSA ratioswere determine...
Carlson, who assumed his role in July 2023, brings over thirty years of experience in the anatomic and molecular pathology laboratory business. His extensive background includes pioneering work in uropathology and the development of the percent-free PSA test, a critical advancement in prostate cancer...
1). The clinical data from the cohort were then joined with the available data from telomeric analysis (see below), using the sample code as the joining key. Clinical data used were presence or absence of cancer diagnosis, age, PSA, free PSA, DRE results along with TAV and presence of ...
Total and free serum PSA determinations were performed using three types of electro-chemiluminescence immunoassays recalibrated to the World Health Organization (WHO) standard. The diagnostic accuracy of PSA, %fPSA, and %fPSA in combination with PSA (%fPSA + PSA) was determined using the area ...
This study investigated the efficacy of the elastography strain ratio (ESR) as a predictor of prostate cancer (PCa) in targeted prostate biopsy. In total, 257 patients who underwent magnetic resonance imaging-targeted biopsy were enrolled. Before biopsy,
Cancer ranks as one of the deadliest diseases worldwide. The high mortality rate associated with cancer is partially due to the lack of reliable early detection methods and/or inaccurate diagnostic tools such as certain protein biomarkers. Cell-free nucl
Cell-free nucleic acids (cfNA) such as circulating long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proposed as a new class of potential biomarkers for cancer diagnosis. The reported correlation between the presence of tumors and abnormal levels of lncRNAs in the blood of cancer patients has notably ...
Kind Code: A1 Abstract: Provided is a method for monitoring the presence and/or progression of prostate tumor in an individual, by measuring the expression level of marker genes out of a novel signature of 39 genes. The invention further discloses a data base and array comprising said identi...
activity (PSA). There are various forms of PSA in the bloodstream, including free PSA (fPSA) and complex PSA (cPSA). Furthermore, fPSA includes nicked PSA, intact PSA, and ProPSA, while cPSA mostly refers to the PSA binding to 琢 1 ...
