Table 1 Gelatinolytic score calculated for biopsy prints of PCa and BPH biopsies
From: Tissue print of prostate biopsy: a novel tool in the diagnostic procedure of prostate cancer
| Gleason Score | PSA (ng/ml) | Biopsy MMP9+MMP2 score (BS) | Gelatinolytic score (GS) | Correlation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PCa | 9 | 7.0 | 5+2 | 4 |
BS vs GS = 0.97 * Gleason vs GS = 0.86 * PSA (PCa) vs GS = 0.02 PSA (all) vs GS = 0.36 |
| PCa | 8 | 6.0 | 5+1 | 4 | |
| PCa | 8 | 14.2 | 3+2 | 3 | |
| PCa | 7 | 8.3 | 3+0 | 2 | |
| PCa | 6 | 26.0 | 3+1 | 2 | |
| PCa | 6 | 8.2 | 2+0 | 0 | |
| PCa | 6 | 14.8 | 3+1 | 2 | |
| PCa | 6 | 5.9 | 0 | 0 | |
| PCa | 6 | 10.5 | 1+1 | 1 | |
| BPH | -- | 3.0 | 0 | 0 | |
| BPH | -- | 0.4 | 0 | 0 | |
| BPH | -- | 3.2 | 0 | 0 |
