Tiivistelmä
CONCLUSIONS Lower proportions of fPSA-I and fPSA-N to total PSA were associated with a more advanced cancer stage and grade. A long-term follow-up study and a comparison with currently used clinical methods are needed to evaluate the usefulness of the analytes as prognostic markers for cancer aggressiveness in individual patients.
