A significant proportion of men, ages 50 to 70 years, have, and continue to receive prostate specific antigen (PSA) tests to screen for prostate cancer (PCa). Approximately 70% of men with an elevated PSA level will not subsequently be diagnosed with PCa. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 13 men with an elevated PSA level who had not been diagnosed with PCa. Uncertainty was prominen...
A simple and sensitive immunosensor for the detection of cancer biomarker prostate specific antigen (PSA) has been developed. Around the percolation threshold of the graphene film, the conductivity of the graphene film varies significantly with the surface adsorption of molecules, which can be used for the detection of proteins based on antibody-antigen binding.
There is still no consensus on whether prostate-specific antigen (PSA) measurement should be used as a screening test for prostate cancer, but patients have the right to be informed about its risks and possible benefits. PSA testing is more likely to be beneficial in relatively young men and men at higher risk (ie, African Americans and men with a family history of prostate cancer). A possible ...
The ultimate utility of the serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) assay as a screening test for reducing prostate cancer mortality has been an area of intense controversy since its introduction. PSA testing was not initially envisioned as a screening tool, but as a way to evaluate treatment responses in men with prostate cancer. Far in advance of evidence from randomized trials, the rapid and w...
Background and Objective: Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers of the urinary system. The most used method for diagnosis is transrectal ultrasonography-guided biopsy. The purpose of this study is a statistical analysis with the aim of reducing unnecessary biopsies based on individual, geographical and genetic patterns in our region. Methods: The medical records of all patients who...
PURPOSE To our knowledge the reasons for the high rates of prostate cancer in black American men are unknown. Genetic and lifestyle factors have been implicated. Better understanding of prostate cancer rates in West African men would help clarify why black American men have such high rates since the groups share genetic ancestry and yet have different lifestyles and screening practices. To esti...
A new photoelectrochemical immunoassay for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was successfully developed with high sensitivity via immunogold labeling.
We introduce a continuous stochastic model for the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels following radiotherapy and derive solutions for the associated partial differential (Kolmogorov-Chapman) equation. The solutions describe the evolution of the time-dependent density for PSA levels which take into account an absorbing condition along the boundary and various initial conditions. We include i...
Prostate-specific antigen testing in men aged 40-64 years: impact of publication of clinical trials.
We assessed the impact of the publication of trials and changes in recommendations on the rates of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening in men aged 40 to 64 years by analyzing monthly medical claims for PSA testing in a commercial insurance database from 2001 to 2011, covering more than 1.5 million men in each year. The testing rates for men aged 40 to 49 years, 50 to 59 years, and 60 to 6...
