Dear Dr. Donohue: I am a 74-year-old man. I have not had physical exams regularly until recently. I took a pre-op exam for cataract surgery, and one of the numbers noted was for PSA. It was 6.1. I have no prostate gland symptoms other than an occasional slow urinary stream.Dr. ...
In addition toprostate cancer, the prostate also frequently manifests benign enlargement (benign prostatic hyperplasia [BPH]) and acute orchronic inflammation(prostatitis). Like prostate cancer, each of these conditions can elevate thePSAlevel, confounding the use of serum PSA testing for prostatecancer...
After surgery or radiation, medical providers watch for a cancer relapse with PSA and PSADT test results. Those numbers plus your original risk category are considered together when deciding what treatment course to follow—the faster the PSADT and the higher your risk category, the more aggressive...
Prostate cancer is the second most common malignancy in men worldwide and consists of a mixture of tumor and non-tumor cell types. To characterize the prostate cancer tumor microenvironment, we perform single-cell RNA-sequencing on prostate biopsies, prostatectomy specimens, and patient-derived organo...
We collapsed the none and 1 to 3 ejaculation categories because of insufficient numbers of participants in the none category.Case Ascertainment On each follow-up questionnaire, we asked participants whether they had received a diagnosis of prostate cancer during the prior 2 years. For men who ...

Although germline variants of MMR genes are thought to predispose to...
WebMD's slideshow covers prostate cancer: who's at risk, symptoms, tests, staging, treatments, survival, and foods that may help lower your risk for prostate cancer.
Due to the high specificity, it is unlikely that our models were trained with large numbers of false positive lymph nodes. In addition, we relied on manual detection of segmentation of lymph nodes, and we do not perform lymph node detection. The tendency to select easily definable and large ...
prostate cancer was flagged by copy number mistakes in sequences such as NCOA2, PHLPP1 and TMPRSS2-ERG. As expected each person's cancer signature was slightly different, however patients whose cancer did not respond to castration all had increased copy numbers of genes for theandrogen receptor...
