The proportion of patients undergoing PSMA staging over time was quantified by GS and PSA. We performed manual chart review of 2,024 staging PSMA scan reports performed within VHA to assess PSMA positivity rates by NCCN risk group defined by conventional imaging. Results We identified 35,440 ...
Note: a. PSA is organ-specific, not tumor-specific. Elevations in PSA can also occur in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostatitis, and other non-malignant prostate conditions. As an independent variable, PSA offers a better predictive indicator of the disease compared to digital rectal exam...
Estimates for total physical activity were adjusted for age at diagnosis, overall stage (II, III, III/IV, IV), treatment (prostatectomy, radiation therapy, hormone therapy), Gleason score, PSA level, region (urban vs rural), number of times had PSA test done (never/once/twice or more), ...

Cumulative DDDs (total amount of drug used), duration (number of years with any allopurinol purchases), and intensity (DDD/years of use) were calculated for allopurinol use. We used two different extended Cox regression model adjustments to estimate risk of PCa death by allopurinol use: an age...
The primary characteristics of the prostate subjects are shown in Table2. The mean age, body weight, BMI, fat percentage, body fat mass, and FFM were not significantly different between the two groups (p > 0.05). It was found that the PSA Total (PSAT) and measured REE values for ...
Currently, data used to develop prognoses after RP and RT include PSA levels, age, pathologic tumor (pT) and lymph node (pN) classification, and Gleason score. PSA is manufactured by cells of the prostate gland. A rising PSA level is considered a potential indicator of prostate cancer. Tumor...
