Does a three-gene panel on urine increase PSA specificity in the detection of prostate cancer?
Taken together, these results provide a strategy for the development of a more accurate model for PCa diagnosis. In the future, a multiplexed, urine-based diagnostic test for PCa with a higher specificity, but the same sensitivity as the serum-PSA test, could be used to determine better which patients should undergo biopsy.
TAPSE is a feasible and reproducible marker of RV systolic function in infants with PH and is superior to tricuspid annular S' and RVFAC. Longitudinal studies are needed to evaluate the role of TAPSE in serial evaluation of PH.
