No neurological deficit occurred, and the electromyogram was normal 6 weeks and 7 months later.

Objectives. To evaluate the effects of digital rectal examination (DRE) on serum total, calculated complexed, and free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and the free/total PSA ratio and factors affecting variations of PSA.Methods. Serum total and free PSA and the percent free PSA ratio were determined in 91 urologically referred men (mean age 64 +/- 9 years) before and 30 minutes after DRE, with the...
Objectives. We evaluated the effects of transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy of the prostate on serum total and free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and the free/total PSA ratio and factors affecting variations in PSA levels.Methods. Serum total and free PSA levels and the free/total PSA ratio were determined in 48 men (mean age 66 +/- 7 years) before and 1 hour, 8 days, and 30 days after prostate...
