Age Specific Reference Levels of Serum Prostate-Specific Antigen, Prostate Volume and Prostate Specific Antigen Density in Healthy Iranian Men
Background: It is relevant to highlight that there is not a precise and perfect report on either 95 percentile value (upper limit of normal range) or on appropriate reference intervals for serum PSA in Iranian population. Objective: To determine age-specific reference ranges for serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) concentration and PSA density (PSAD) and prostate volumes in a population of he...
متن کاملEvaluation of the diagnostic use of free prostate specific antigen/total prostate specific antigen ratio in detecting prostate cancer.
OBJECTIVE To assess whether Free/Total prostate specific antigen (PSA) would enhance prostate cancer detection in men with total serum PSA between 2.5 and 10 ng/ml. METHODS This case control study was conducted in the Department of Urology and Renal Transplantation, Jinnah Hospital, Lahore from January 2001 to June 2004.

متن کاملProstate Specific Antigen Level in Exposure to Sulfur Mustard
Background: Oxidants and inflammation agents are predisposing factors for the development of prostate cancer. As a chemical warfare, sulfur mustard (SM) can cause cancer through various pathways mainly increased production of oxidants and inflammation. Due to high incidence of cancer in SM victims, concentration of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in SM victims was evaluated and compared with th...
متن کاملProstate specific antigen staining intensity in prostatic adenocarcinoma correlates with serum prostate specific antigen , Bandar Abbas, Iran
Introduction: Prostatic adenocarcinoma is one the most common malignances and the second cause of death in males due to cancer. Prostate Specific Antigen (PZSA) serum level is the first marker to screen such patients. We aimed in this study, to assess the intensity of prostatic adenocarcinoma tissue staining with PSA staining method. Methods: In this corss-sectional study, prostatic adenocarcin...
متن کاملReview on the Simultaneous Determination of Total Prostate-Specific Antigen and Free Prostate-Specific Antigen
Please be advised that this information was generated on 2016-05-03 and may be subject to change. BACKGROUND. The total prostate-specific antigen (t-PSA) in serum measured by PSA assays represents the sum of free (f-PSA) and PSA complexed with al-antichymotrypsin. The f-PSA/t-PSA (F/T) ratio in prostate cancer (PCA) patients is lower than in patients suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia ...
