The diagnostic value of a new formula combining age and prostate volume in prostate cancer
Background and objective: This study combined two clinical indicators (age and prostate volume (PV)) to generate age to PV (AVR) ratio, whose diagnostic value for prostate cancer (PCa) was examined based on prostate specific antigen (PSA) in the range

Evaluation of Prostate specific antigen levels and its correlation with histopathological findings
Background: Prostate specific antigen is a tumor marker though is expressed by both normal and neoplastic prostate tissue. The absolute value of Prostate specific antigen is useful for determining the extent of prostate cancer and its treatment. Prostate

The Impact of Interscreening Interval and Age on Prostate Cancer Screening With Prostate-Specific Antigen [PDF]
Background: Population-based screening for prostate cancer (PCa) has used serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) since the early 1990s. However, the efficacy could be affected by screening interval, age ranges of screening, attendance, and contamination ...

Developing recombinant overlapping peptides of prostate-specific antigen as vaccine [PDF]
Immunotherapy has become a new approach for prostate cancer (PCa) due to its selectivity and efficacy. With immunogenic properties, PSA has been found to be overexpressed in PCa and its enzymatic activity enhances the growth and progression of PCa cells.
