  1. 1. Surveillance and follow-up of early prostate cancer

    Author : Mats Steinholtz Ahlberg; Anna Bill-Axelson; Lars Holmberg; Anna Lantz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; prostate cancer; active surveillance; follow-up; biochemical recurrence; triggers for transition to radical treatment; overdiagnosis; overtreatment.; Urologi; Urology;

    Abstract : Active surveillance (AS) for prostate cancer was introduced to address overtreatment resulting from prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing. Despite advancements such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and targeted biopsies, PSA remains crucial in prostate cancer diagnostics, leading to ongoing challenges of overdiagnosis and overtreatment.

  2. 2. Role of Wnt5a in Prostate Cancer

    Author : Azharuddin Sajid Syed Khaja; Malmö Urologisk cancerforskning; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate Cancer; Wnt5a; tissue micro array; Biochemical recurrence; Gene fusions;

    Abstract : Wnt5a is a non-canonical secreted glycoprotein of the Wnt family that plays important roles in organ development and tissue orientation. Previous studies have reported that Wnt5a was upregulated at both mRNA and protein levels in prostate cancer, but information regarding its role in predicting clinical outcome in patients after radical prostatectomy is limited.

  5. 5. Markers of differentiation and prognosis in prostate cancer : a morphological and immunohistochemical study

    Author : Axel Glaessgen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common malignancy in men worldwide. The disease shows a wide range of patient outcome between indolent and highly aggressive tumor behavior. Prognostic factors are needed to stratify PCa patients in different prognostic groups for treatment decision and to predict outcome. READ MORE
