Association between Human Papillomavirus Infection and Risk of Prostate Cancer
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the most common causes of sexually transmitted diseases worldwide and is the etiological agent of cervical and other anogenital malignancies. Since HPVs have been shown to possess oncogenic potential, an association between HPV infection and prostatic cancer (PCa) has been suggested. There are conflicting reports on the impact of HPV infection on the deve...
متن کاملTumor length in prostate cancer.
To evaluate the impact of tumor length and fraction of positive biopsy cores on overall survival, I used the data for 526 patients with prostate cancer. Median follow-up in patients not observed until death was more than 6 years. In a Cox model analysis that included age, serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, grade, and fraction of positive cores, tumor length was the most closely associ...

متن کاملAssociation between prostate specific antigen change over time and prostate cancer recurrence risk: a joint model
Background: Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is an important biomarker to monitor patients after treated with radiation therapy (RT). The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the PSA data and prostate cancer recurrence using the joint modeling. Methods: This historical cohort study was performed on 422 prostate cancer patients. Inclusion criteria included: patients with loc...
متن کاملA single nucleotide polymorphism in CYP1B1 leads to differential prostate cancer risk and telomere length
BACKGROUND: Cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) is a key enzyme in its oestrogen metabolism pathway, giving rise to hydroxylation and conjugation. Functionally relevant genetic variants within CYP1B1 may affect the telomere length and subsequently lead to prostate carcinogenesis. METHODS: We evaluated 8 CYP1B1 tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 1015 men with prostate cancer (PCa) and 1052 c...
