A novel model to predict positive prostate biopsy with low free testosterone percent

Conclusion:

- percent-FT (FT/TT ratio), which can be measured easily and inexpensively, was found to be a good predictor of prostate cancer upon prostate biopsy, whereas serum TT and FT values were not low

- low %FT values is an independent risk factor for prostate cancer detection

- we were able to construct a novel predictive model based on %FT and PSAD, which are quantitative factors obtained before prostate biopsy

- this model can assist clinicians in deciding whether prostate biopsy is advisable
