Predictive value of standard serum markers for bone metastases in prostate cancer
Background The early detection of bone metastases is very important in prostate cancer follow-up. This study aimed to compare conventional tumor markers, namely free prostate-specific antigen (free PSA), total prostate-specific antigen (total PSA), free ...

Serum total PSA and free PSA in breast tumors [PDF]
Now a days measurement of molecular forms of PSA has gained importance in clinical practice. Several studies have demonstrated the production of PSA in female tissues, such as breast. The present piece of work has been undertaken with an objective to estimate the relative proportion of the molecular forms of PSA in serum along with serum testosterone ...

Is serum PSA a predictor of male hypogonadism? Testing the hypothesis
Objective: Male hypogonadism (MH) is common among infertile men. Besides testosterone, limited MH biomarkers are available, while researchers have suggested the use of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to help diagnose MH.

Prostate-specific antigen increase after urethral catheterisation: fact or myth
Background To find out any association of urethral catheterisation with rise in serum PSA. Methods This study was conducted in 80 patients of BPH who had to undergo catheterisation because of acute urinary retention. Patients were divided into two groups:

A new modification of the chiron ACS assay for total prostate-specific antigen achieves equimolar response characteristics and improves the detection of prostate cancer [PDF]
Nonequimolar-response assays for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) are criticized for overestimating total PSA in some men without prostate cancer (PCA), and underestimating total PSA in some men with PCA.

CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF BIOMARKERS IN OVARIAN CANCER, PROSTATE CANCER, COLORECTAL CANCER
The review is devoted to modern notions about serum tumor markers and their place in oncology: using for differential diagnosis, in prognosis of course of tumor process, during follow-up, for preclinical detection of disease recurrences, as well as in ...
