There is no specific normal or abnormal level of PSA in the blood. In the past, PSA levels of 4.0 ng/mL and lower were considered normal. However, some individuals with PSA levels below 4.0 ng/mL have prostate ca...
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...
In the presence of low PSA level in PC patients after definitive treatment, 18 F-DCFPyL PET/CT is most beneficial in detection of disease in patients with GS of 8 or higher at the time of diagnosis, and the ones who have history of ADT only, or ADT plus chemotherapy. There is ...
Results PSA,PSAD of PCa were significantly higher than that of BPH (PSA:46.3±33.8μg/Lvs7.04±6.91 μg/L,P=0.000021;PSAD:1.43±1.21μg.L-1.ml-1vs0.14±0.15ng.ml-1.ml-1,P=0.000055).There's no difference of F/TPSA ratio between BPH and PCa cases (0.22±0.18vs 0.18±0.11,P=...
In this preliminary report from an ongoing clinical trial, 60 745 men aged 50 through 63 years were randomized either to be invited to undergo prostate cancer screening with a PSA test, a 4-kallikrein panel for those ...
游离 PSA(f PSA,free PSA):血液中以未结合的形式存 在的 PSA,占血液中总 PSA 的 5% ~ 40%.游离 PSA 水平的升 高和良性前列腺增生有关,同时前列腺癌的发病率降低[9].游离 PSA 不稳定,容易受温度影响[10]. 游离 PSA 百分比(% f PSA,percentage of free PSA):游离 PSA 与总 PSA 比值的百分数.研究...
During the early diagnosis of CSPCa, the 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT SUVmax-based prediction model is a much better diagnostic method than PSA-based tests, as revealed by the larger AUC value and higher sensitivity and specificity of this test than those of PSA- and mpMRI-based tests. Figures 2 ...
Unreasonable PSA demand likely to put future of Pakistan squash in jeopardy Given that obese men may have lower baseline prostate-specific antigen (PSA), they declared that they may be at a higher risk for having prostate cancer undetected in a prostate-specific antigen screening test. Obese men...
For patients with results of 3 ng/ml or higher, Dr. Vickers says the test should always be repeated to confirm the results. Elevated PSA levels can be caused by conditions other than cancer, including an enlarged prostate or a prostate infection. It's important to rule out those potential ...
prostate cancer was higher in the intervention group (4.3%) than in the control group (3.6%); however, there was no significant difference in prostate cancer mortality (0.30 per 1000 person-years for the intervention group vs 0.31 for the control group) after a median follow-up of 10 years...
