Abstract:
The activities of acid phosphatase and ?-1,4 glucosidase and the concentration of citric acid in the semen of 51 cases of chronic prostatitis were determined.The mean value was 694.33?346.61 Bodansky units for acid phosphatase,43.84?24.70mIU/ml for ?-1,4 glucosidase,and 3.26 ?2.37 mg/ml for citric acid.The activity of acid phospohatase and the concentration of citric acid were significantly lower in the patients with chronic prostatitis than in the normal subjicts while the activity of ?-1,4 glucosidase showed little changes.The findings suggest that the functions of the prostate was severely imparired and that of the epididymis remained normal in patients with chronic prostatitis.
