PSA Net vs ICNS

PSA Net is a neural network that predicts whether a man will have prostate cancer on biopsy from the patient's age, total PSA, complexed PSA, results of the International Prostate Symptom Score, ethnicity, family history and rectal exam. It is intended to be used by qualified healthcare professionals. The application is an adaptation of the algorithm published in Kalra P, Togami J, Bansal B S G, Partin AW, Brawer MK, Babaian RJ, Ross LS, Niederberger CS: A neurocomputational model for prostate carcinoma detection: Cancer 2003 Nov 1;98(9):1849-54.

Innovations in Clinical Neuroscience (ICNS) is a peer-reviewed, electronic publication that has become an important addition to the field of neuroscience. Under the expert editorial leadership of Amir Kalali, MD, ICNS provides evidence-based information in a practical, easy-to-read format for practicing clinicians, investigators, industry scientists, and other entities involved in the field of neuroscience. ICNS translates the vast amounts of CNS research into applicable information that aims to inform practicing clinicians on the latest treatment options in psychiatry and neurology, as well as investigators and scientists on the latest innovations in the drug development arena. ICNS offers its readers original research, practical discussions on the latest research, comprehensive reviews, brief reports on important, but limited data, didactic case reports, and provocative commentaries on contemporary topics in neuroscience. Articles are—written by key opinion leaders as well as practicing clinicians who are “in the trenches, —providing vital balance to the research-rich literature that is already available. ICNS is published by Matrix Medical Communications in West Chester, Penn., USA, and is indexed on PubMed Central, PsycINFO, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, Scopus, and EMBASE.
