PROSTATE cancerCOVID-19PROSTATE-specific antigenSARS-CoV-2This article discusses a case study of a 69-year-old male with a history of prostate cancer who experienced elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels during an active COVID-19 infection. The patient had previo...
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...
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...
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...
The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of prostate cancer in patients who have an elevated referral prostate-specific antigen (PSA), which subsequently falls to within their normal age-specific reference range prior to prostate biopsy. The study demonstrated that of the 160 patien...
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...
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),...

No substantial differences were observed between the two groups with regard to knowledge about prostate cancer, comorbidities and symptoms, and delays in presentation of symptoms to a primary care practitioner. Black men were more likely to be referred to a hospital, and had higher PSA levels than...
