Elevated prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels a risk factor for pathological hip fracture in metastatic prostatic carcinomaProstatic neoplasmsMetastasesFemoral fracturesMetastatic carcinoma of the prostate is increasing in incidence and commonly affects the proximal femur, but fracture risk is difficult to ...
An abnormally high serum PSA is still the most frequent trigger for men to enter a suspected prostate cancer diagnostic pathway. Large prostates, especially the ones with a volume over 100 cc, are commonly associated with elevated PSA levels. In men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), PSA...
OBJECTIVES: We tested the hypothesis that prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels would be higher among prostate cancer deaths as compared with controls over time in the 25-year follow-up of the Multiple Risk Factor Intervention Trial of participants ages 35-57 at entry. METHODS: The initial stor...
AbstractProstate-specific antigen (PSA) is well known as a specific tumor marker for prostate cancer, but carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)- and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9)-elevating adenocarcinomas originating in the prostate gland are rare. We report a case of metastatic adenocarcinoma of th...
PURPOSE: Patients with persistent elevated PSA and repeated negative prostate biopsy, that means having the prostate biopsied at multiple times, were investigated with 18F-choline PET/CT to delineate prostate cancer and guide renewed prostate biopsy. METHODS: Twenty patients with elevated PSA and negati...
Objective: To evaluate early postoperative results of patients with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels who underwent surgery due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Patients and Methods: 64 patients who had lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), normal digital rectal examinations (DRE),...
MRI-guided biopsy of the prostate increases diagnostic performance in men with elevated or increasing PSA levels after previous negative TRUS biopsies: Edi... In selected men with previous negative TRUS-guided prostate biopsy, elevated or increasing PSA levels, and suspicious findings on MRI, MRI-gu...
For instance elevated PSA predicts prostate cancer only 20% of the time. Additional biomarker的证明为多数癌症是非常困难的。 当前为多数癌症,没有biomarker可利用。 为那些biomarkers被辨认了的地方, biomarkers有非常恶劣的预计值。 例如高的PSA预言时间的摄护腺癌仅20%。 另外,当肿瘤进步,一特定biomarker变得...

BACKGROUND Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a most valuable tool for the early detection of prostate cancer; however, it has a high false-positive rate as presently used in prostate cancer screening programs. Patients with persistent PSA elevations, normal digital rectal examinations, and multiple...
