Abstract
- We have performed assay for zinc on the expressed prostatic secretion in 52 consecutative patients with complaints of chronic prostatitis along with 23 controls. Among 52 patients, 29 are chronic bacterial prostatitis and 23 are chronic non-bacterial prostatitis. The result is as follows: 1. There is a significant difference(p<0.01) of the concentration of zinc in expressed prostatic secretion between the patient and the control. 2. Not remarkable difference of the concentration of zinc between the bacterial prostatitis and the non-bacterial prostatitis is elucidated.
