Being born with a larger-than-normal prostate A PSA in the range of 4-10 nanograms per milliliter is linked to a 25% chance of prostate cancer. Most people with a PSA below 4 nanograms per milliliter don't have prostate cancer, but there's no guarantee. Sometimes, even people with ...

With regard to the ratios of FPSA-to-TPSA for each age group we found no correlation between them. As a result, the appropriate upper limit of normal 95th percentile for all ratios was 0.23 for men for all ages. The establishment of appropriate reference ranges for TPSA and FPSA as well...
An association between age and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been documented: As men age, their serum PSA value increases. Currently, a single demarcation between normal and elevated PSA values, 4.0 ng/mL, is used as an indication for biopsy among men of all ages. The use of age-sp...
Various methods have been proposed to increase the specificity of prostate-specific antigen (PSA), including age-specific PSA reference ranges, PSA density (PSAD), and percent free PSA (%fPSA). In this multicenter study, we compared these methods for their utility in cancer detection and their ...
curve (AUC) of 0.86. Our model outperforms the predictive ability of tPSA (AUC 0.71), used in clinical practice. In conclusion, The FPR and CPR showed better diagnostic yield than tPSA. In addition, the PCa predictive model including age, fPSA and complexed PSA, outperformed tPSA detection...
If a PSA level is high for a man’s age, the PSA test will generally be repeated. If it is still found to be elevated, a transrectalultrasoundmay be performed. Generally the next stage in testing is a prostate biopsy. Further treatment will depend on the results of the biopsy. ...
The disease is less common before age 50, and experts believe that most elderly men have traces of it. African American men are more likely to getprostate cancerand have the highest death rate. Other than skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in American men. In other part...
prostate cancer. People assigned male at birth (AMAB) who are at average risk for prostate cancer should get a prostate exam starting at age 50. Those with a higher chance of the disease may begin screening earlier. If your DRE or PSA shows abnormal results, you may need further testing....
Lineage transitions are a central feature of prostate development, tumourigenesis and treatment resistance. While epigenetic changes are well known to drive prostate lineage transitions, it remains unclear how upstream metabolic signalling contributes to
