Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the influences of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and digital rectal examination (DRE) to the detection rate,stage and Gleason grade of prostate cancer.Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on the prostate biopsy data of Beijing hospital from January 1997 to December 2010.The spearman rank correlation was applied to evaluate the relationship of PSA and DRE to the parameters related to the prostate cancer.Results The PSA had significant correlation with cancer detection rate,stage and Gleason grade (r =0.537,P ＜0.0001; r =0.365,P ＜0.0001; r=0.556,P ＜0.0001).However,DRE had only correlation with cancer detection rate and Gleason grade (r =0.212,P ＜0.0001 ; r =0.126,P =0.02).As the PSA increased,when divided into different groups,the cancer detection rate and the proportion of patients with Gleason 7-10 increased whereas the localized cancer rate decreased.DRE positive patients had higher cancer detection rate when PSA was in 10.0-19.9 μg/L and 20.0-99.9 μg/L groups.The DRE results had no influence to the stage or Gleason grade in same PSA group.Conclusions PSA has significant correlation with prostate cancer detection rate,stage and Gleason grade.However,the DRE results only affect cancer detection rate in some PSA level.
