title: The effects of exercise and activity on serum prostate specific antigen levels.
abstract: To determine the effects of exercise and activity on serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels, we studied an inpatient adult male population, and evaluated the PSA levels before and after a graded exercise stress test. We confirmed a prior finding showing a significant difference between inpatient and outpatient values, yet found that stressful exercise had no definitive effect on serum PSA values.
