Establishment of Age Specific Reference Range of Serum PSA Level among Healthy Indian Hindu and Muslim Males

Age Specific Reference Levels of Serum Prostate-Specific Antigen, Prostate Volume and Prostate Specific Antigen Density in Healthy Iranian Men

Background: It is relevant to highlight that there is not a precise and perfect report on either 95 percentile value (upper limit of normal range) or on appropriate reference intervals for serum PSA in Iranian population. Objective: To determine age-specific reference ranges for serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) concentration and PSA density (PSAD) and prostate volumes in a population of he...

[Detection of prostate cancer in urological practice: clinical establishment of serum PSA reference values by age].

BACKGROUND Determinations of serum levels of prostate specific antigen (PSA) are widely used for the detection of prostate cancer, but have not demonstrated sufficient sensitivity and specificity to be useful in urological practice. In order to enhance the diagnostic value of serum PSA, we studied the distribution of serum PSA levels by age in urological patients without clinical evidence of pr...

Reference reagents for prostate-specific antigen (PSA): establishment of the first international standards for free PSA and PSA (90:10)

BACKGROUND Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) measurements in serum by immunoassay are widely used in the screening, diagnosis, and monitoring of patients with prostate cancer although the lack of common reference reagents has led in the past to wide differences in estimates. We report here the results of a WHO international collaborative study in which two preparations of PSA representative of th...
