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...
Despite the low minor allele numbers, the rs17632542 SNP was significantly associated with PCa specific mortality with a Hazard Ratio (HR) of 1.33, 95% CI = 1.24–1.45, P < 0.001 while for other causes of death HR = 1.08, 95% CI = 0.98–1.19, P = 0.4 (Fig...
13,30 A between-center analysis of the ERSPC trial suggested that more intensive screening reduces mortality relative to no screening, but also that intensive screening strategies detect higher numbers of low-risk prostate cancer cases and have a strong positive correlation between the extent of the...
Chicago-The traditional PSA cut-point of 4.0 ng/mL for recommending abiopsy to diagnose prostate cancer is controversial, and some researchershave recommended cut-points as low as 2.0 ng/mL. Two separate studies presentedat the AUA annual meeting here have found that cut-points of 2.5 or 2.6n...

The differ- ence was large, the patient characteristics were well-balanced and the trial had sufficient numbers to ensure adequate statistical power. However, there are some caveats with the trial design to consider and discuss. The first caveat was the relatively short, 6 months, duration of ...
Variables were presented as mean, standard deviation (+SD), range or numbers and percentages. Comparisons between two groups will be made using a pooled t-test or Mann Whitney/ Wilcoxon) test of significance (Z-test).The Chi-square test was used to compare categorical data (X2 -test). ...
Cells at the indicated numbers were implanted subcutaneously or orthotopically (in the dorsal prostate) in 50% Matrigel in the three types of hosts. All tumors were harvested in ∼2 months. d The triple marker-positive and -negative LAPC9 cells were purified from the xenograft tumors that ...
