Table 4 shows the results of the logistic regression analysis of pretreatment predictors of PCa: age (p = 0.04) and plasma hTERT mRNA (p<0.0001) were significant independent predictors of PCa, while serum PSA at diagnosis (p = 0.94), DRE (p = 0.43) and TRUS (p = 0.85) were not independent predictors. The gene discussed is KLK3; the disease is posterior cortical atrophy.
