Re: Richard Ablin says ibupofen can elevate psa, not reduce it.
Terry,
I wonder if they did a follow up analysis taking age into account. I am always surprised when studies like this, which seem to be flawed, get past the reviewers and get published in reputable journals.
(I think it is flawed because it ignored the fact that PSA goes up with age and then they use data for a very wide range of ages)
It is not just this article. Many have circular arguments and faulty logic.
