Prostaglandins, Synthetic
|
D011465 |
[Compounds obtained by chemical synthesis that are analogs or derivatives of naturally occurring prostaglandins and that have similar activity.
] |
|
Prostanoic Acids
|
D011466 |
[2-Octylcyclopentaneheptanoic acids. The family of saturated carbon-20 cyclic fatty acids that represent the parent compounds of the prostaglandins.

|
Prostate
|
D011467 |
[A gland in males that surrounds the neck of the URINARY BLADDER and the URETHRA. It secretes a substance that liquefies coagulated semen. It is situated in the pelvic cavity behind the lower part of the PUBIC SYMPHYSIS, above the deep layer of the triangular ligament, and rests upon the RECTUM.

|
Prostate-Specific Antigen
|
D017430 |
[A glycoprotein that is a kallikrein-like serine proteinase and an esterase, produced by epithelial cells of both normal and malignant prostate tissue. It is an important marker for the diagnosis of prostate cancer.
] |
|
Prostatectomy
|
D011468 |
[Complete or partial surgical removal of the prostate. Three primary approaches are commonly employed: suprapubic - removal through an incision above the pubis and through the urinary bladder; retropubic - as for suprapubic but without entering the urinary bladder; and transurethral (TRANSURETHRAL RESECTION OF PROSTATE).

|
Prostatein
|
D060789 |
[A secreted prostate-specific protein which can bind non-polar steroids, cholesterol and a group of small, proline-rich peptides. The protein is specifically found in RATS and comprises three distinct secretoglobin-related subunits referred to as prostatic steroid-binding protein C1, C2 and C3.

|
Prostatic Diseases
|
D011469 |
[Pathological processes involving the PROSTATE or its component tissues.
] |
|
Prostatic Hyperplasia
|
D011470 |
[Increase in constituent cells in the PROSTATE, leading to enlargement of the organ (hypertrophy) and adverse impact on the lower urinary tract function. This can be caused by increased rate of cell proliferation, reduced rate of cell death, or both.
, A disease caused by hyperplastic process of non-transformed prostatic cells.
] |
|
Prostatic Intraepithelial Neoplasia
|
D019048 |
[A premalignant change arising in the prostatic epithelium, regarded as the most important and most likely precursor of prostatic adenocarcinoma. The neoplasia takes the form of an intra-acinar or ductal proliferation of secretory cells with unequivocal nuclear anaplasia, which corresponds to nuclear grade 2 and 3 invasive prostate cancer.

|
Prostatic Neoplasms
|
D011471 |
[Tumors or cancer of the PROSTATE.
] |
|
Prostatic Neoplasms, Castration-Resistant
|
D064129 |
[Tumors or cancer of the PROSTATE which can grow in the presence of low or residual amount of androgen hormones such as TESTOSTERONE.
] |
|
Prostatic Secretory Proteins
|
D029584 |
[Proteins secreted by the prostate gland. The major secretory proteins from the human prostate gland include PROSTATE-SPECIFIC ANTIGEN, prostate-specific acid phosphatase, prostate-specific membrane antigen, and prostate-specific protein-94.
] |
|
Prostatism
|
D053448 |
[Lower urinary tract symptom, such as slow urinary stream, associated with PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA in older men.
] |
|
Prostatitis
|
D011472 |
[Infiltration of inflammatory cells into the parenchyma of PROSTATE. The subtypes are classified by their varied laboratory analysis, clinical presentation and response to treatment.
] |
|
Prostheses and Implants
|
D019736 |
[Artificial substitutes for body parts, and materials inserted into tissue for functional, cosmetic, or therapeutic purposes. Prostheses can be functional, as in the case of artificial arms and legs, or cosmetic, as in the case of an artificial eye. Implants, all surgically inserted or grafted into the body, tend to be used therapeutically. IMPLANTS, EXPERIMENTAL is available for those used experimentally.

|
Prosthesis Coloring
|
D017797 |
[Coloring, shading, or tinting of prosthetic components, devices, and materials.
] |
|
Prosthesis Design
|
D011474 |
[The plan and delineation of prostheses in general or a specific prosthesis.
] |
|
Prosthesis Failure
|
D011475 |
[Malfunction of implantation shunts, valves, etc., and prosthesis loosening, migration, and breaking.
] |
|
Prosthesis Fitting
|
D017755 |
[The fitting and adjusting of artificial parts of the body. (From Stedman's, 26th ed)
] |
|
Prosthesis Implantation
|
D019919 |
[Surgical insertion of a prosthesis.
