Pretreatment prostate-specific antigen density as a predictor of biochemical recurrence in patients with prostate cancer: a meta-analysis [PDF]

BMC Cancer
Background A consensus has not been reached on the value of prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD) as a predictor of biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the association between PSAD and biochemical recurrence

Usefulness of prostate specific antigen density in detecting prostate carcinoma: A hospital-based study in patients with prostate biopsies

Journal of Pathology of Nepal, 2022
Background: Prostate-specific antigen density has been suggested to enhance the diagnostic efficacy of serum prostate-specific antigen alone in detecting prostate cancer, thereby reducing unnecessary biopsies and associated morbidities.

Comparison of Prostate-Specific Antigen and Its Density and Prostate Health Index and Its Density for Detection of Prostate Cancer

Biomedicines, 2023
As the incidence of prostate cancer (PCa) has increased, screening based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has become controversial due to the low specificity of PSA.

Prostate specific antigen in a community-based sample of men without prostate cancer: Correlations with prostate volume, age, body mass index, and symptoms of prostatism [PDF]

, 1995
The correlation between both prostate specific antigen levels (PSA) and prostate specific antigen density (PSAD) and age, prostate volume parameters, body mass index, and the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) were studied in a community‐based ...

Body mass index in relation to prostate-specific antigen-related parameters

BMC Urology, 2021
Background Only a few previous studies conducted to assess the association between body mass index (BMI) and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) related parameters have taken prostate volume (PV) and blood volume (BV) into consideration.

The diagnostic value of a new formula combining age and prostate volume in prostate cancer

Journal of Men's Health, 2022
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

The Additional Value of Free Prostate Specific Antigen to the Battery of Age-Dependent Prostate-Specific Antigen, Prostate-Specific Antigen Density and Velocity [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 1997
This study describes the value of using the fraction of free prostate-specific antigen as a further marker in the early detection of prostate cancer. This newly introduced marker is compared to the usual battery of age-dependent total prostate-specific antigen, prostate-specific antigen density (microg/l x g tissue) and prostate-specific antigen ...
