To compare the predictive performance of a logistic regression model developed with contemporary data from a diverse group of urology practices to that of the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial (PCPT) Risk Calculator version 2.0.With data from all first-time prostate biopsies performed between January 2012 and March 2015 across the Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative (MUSIC), we developed...
BACKGROUNDIn men with clinically localized prostate cancer who have undergone at least 1 previous negative biopsy and have elevated serum prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) levels, long‐term health outcomes associated with the assessment of urinary prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3) and the transmembrane protease, serine 2 (TMPRSS2):v‐ets erythroblastosis virus E26 oncogene homolog (avian) (ERG) gene fusion...
To determine how well demographic and clinical factors predict the initiation of Active Surveillance (AS).AS has been suggested as a way to reduce overtreatment of men who have prostate cancer; however, factors associated with the decision to choose AS are poorly quantified. Using the Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative registry, we identified 2977 men with prostate cancer who made...
To identify clinical variables associated with a positive computed tomography (CT) scan and estimate the performance of imaging recommendations in patients from a diverse sample of urology practices.This study comprised 2380 men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer seen at 28 practices in the Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative from March 2012 through September 2013. Data included...
To evaluate the performance of published guidelines compared with that of current practice for radiographic staging of men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer.Using data from the Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative clinical registry, we identified 1509 men diagnosed with prostate cancer from March 2012 through June 2013. Clinical data included age, prostate-specific antigen (PSA)...
