New research shows that prostate specific antigen (PSA), a commonly used serum marker of prostate cancer, inhibits the formation of new blood vessels and consequently slows the progression of the disease (Journal of the National Cancer Institute 1999;91:1635-40).The finding may explain the ...
Because PSA levels test scores can be influenced by a large number of factors unrelated to prostate cancer, a high test score may cause you to submit to a possibly unnecessary or life threatening biopsy. And: You now have a better option! Be Well... ~ William...
particularly prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (enlargement of the prostate). There is no evidence that either condition leads to prostate cancer, but someone can have one or ...
The most common screening test for prostate cancer so often returns a false positive result that it's no longer recommended for men older than 70, and it's offered as a personal choice for younger men.
At the cellular level, PCa contains differentiated cancer cells expressing high levels of PSA (i.e., PSA+), as well as PCa cells that express little or no PSA (i.e., PSA−/lo). The PSA−/lo cells appear to be rare in early-stage tumors but become more abundant in high-grade ...
If you have cancer or other prostate problems, more PSA will circulate in your blood. But checking for PSA levels alone often can lead to false positive results for prostate cancer. Three out of 4 men with high overall PSA levels turn out to be cancer-free. A more accurate way to ...
No PSA level is dangerous. However, a PSA over 10 nanograms per milliliter is linked to a 50% chance of prostate cancer. And the higher your PSA climbs above this level, the greater your chances of having prostate cancer. But again, a high PSA test result doesn't necessarily mean you...
Study: PSA level changes important; Prostate cancer fatality rate seems linked to how rapidly test numbers fluctuateASSOCIATED PRESS
In descriptive exploratory analyses, the cumulative incidence of low-grade and high-grade prostate cancer after the first screening round were compared between the group invited to undergo prostate cancer screening and the control...
