PSA density improves the rate of prostate cancer detection in Chinese men with a PSA between 2.5-10.0 ng ml-1 and 10.1- 20.0 ng ml-1: a multicenter study. Asian J Androl 2015;17(3):503-7.Lin YR, Wei XH, Uhlman M, Lin XT, Wu SF, et al. PSA density improves the...
To evaluate the overall detection rate of prostate cancer in biopsies according to serum prostate-specific antigen levels, determine the number of cores biopsied in Indonesian men, and provide a correlated staging of prostate cancer patients at varying intervals of prostate-specific antigen levels. We...
Several studies suggest that standard 6 core sextant transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided biopsies of the prostate provides insufficient material to adequately detect clinically important prostate cancer, and that a larger biopsy cores may improve the cancer detection rate. We performed a prospective rando...

the four-year REDUCE trial," says lead investigator Robert L. Grubb III, Associate Professor of Surgery (Urology), Washington University of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri. "The primary objective was to collect data on the occurrence of new cases of prostate cancer for two years beyond REDUCE...
Limited information is known about the clinical significance of cancers diagnosed upon repeat biopsy for the indication of atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP). With increasing concern regarding overdiagnosis and overtreatment of prostate cancer, and the reported rise in infectious complications related...
Purpose: Atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) denotes the presence of suspicious glands with insufficient cytological architecture for a definitive prostate cancer diagnosis. We evaluated the subsequent prostate cancer detection rate of rebiopsy in patients with an initial diagnosis of ASAP. Materials...
African-American men have among the highest rates of prostate cancer in the world - a chilling statistic that is spurring a major search for the cause of the disease.San Francisco Examiner
Prostate specific antigen: a critical assessment of the most useful tumor marker for adenocarcinoma of the prostate. PSA is a kallikrein-like, serine protease that is produced exclusively by the epithelial cells of all types of prostatic tissue, benign and malignant. Phys......
“These mutations increase with age and are present in about 10% of the prostate cancer population,” Antonarakissaid. “Interestingly enough, these mutations can occur in the same genes for which PARP inhibitors are approved, such asATM,CHEK2, and in rare cases, evenBRCA2. These mutations ...
