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.Keywords
