There's no one PSA level that's considered normal. In general, PSA levels are higher in older people than in younger people, even in those who don't have prostate cancer or other prostate conditions. Most doctors and medical organizations don't use age-specific PSA ranges because there's ...

Objective: To describe values of serum prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) in older men without diagnosed prostate cancer, categorised by age and country of birth, and to describe self‐reported prostate cancer screening. Design, participants and setting: A cohort study (the Concord Health and Ageing...

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...
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels have been used for detection and surveillance of prostate cancer (PCa). However, factors other than PCa—such as genetics—can impact PSA. Here we present findings from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of PSA
However, PSA levels can also be affected by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), local inflammation or infection, prostate volume, age2, and germline genetics. In this regard, PSA is an organ—but not cancer—specific biomarker. PSA screening for PCa has been used for over 20 years, but its...
The PSA Prostate Cancer Screening Test from Labcorp uses a blood sample to measure the level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in your blood. High levels of PSA can be an indicator of prostate cancer and other prostate conditions, so this test may help with early diagnosis and treatment. ...
Objective To investigate the age distribution of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in middle-aged and aged people in Beijing. Methods From November 2006 to November 2008, the data of men, who visited Beijing Hospital for routine health examination and received a measurement of serum PSA level...
Objectives To assess the relationship of the distribution of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to age in a population of subjects for whom PSA levels were determined as part of a health fair. Methods Between March 19 and March 28, 1993, 1716 men aged 40 to 79 years from eastern Nebrask...
